Oppo launched its new batch of products including the updated Reno-series smartphones. The titular Oppo Reno13 comes with the MediaTek Dimensity 8350 chipset, AI features, and so on. In this article, we will be looking at the Oppo Reno13 in further detail, including its price in Nepal.
Oppo Reno13 Overview
Design and Display
The Oppo Reno13 comes with flat aluminium alloy frames as well as a flat-screen. It is IP66, IP68, and IP69 rated against water and dust exposure. The phone ships in Midnight Black, Galaxy Blue, and Butterfly Purple colours. Here, the latter option has a butterfly wings-like pattern while the former two come in regular faded shades.
On the front, there is a 6.59-inch AMOLED panel with 1.5K resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. It supports a touch sampling rate and PWM dimming of up to 240Hz and 3,840Hz respectively. Likewise, it can reach a peak brightness of 1,200 nits and covers a wide P3 colour gamut.
Performance and Software
As I mentioned earlier, the Oppo Reno13 has the MediaTek Dimensity 8350 as its primary driver. It is one of the first devices to come with this chipset and has a similar architecture to the Dimensity 8300. Other than that, the phone can come in a configuration of up to 16GB RAM and 1TB storage. Meanwhile, it has a large 5,600 mAh battery in the tank while supporting up to 80W Super Flash Charge.
The software is one of the most exciting aspects of the Oppo Reno13. It boots in the ColorOS 15 based on Android and comes with baked-in AI features. The phone can utilise artificial intelligence to locate, summarise, and rewrite documents. It can also understand what is on the screen. Similarly, the company has introduced O+ Interconnection, which is basically an AirDrop-like feature that also works with iPhones.

Camera
The AI magic continues to the camera and images as well. This phone uses software to upscale and get rid of motion blur and glares as well. It also supports Live Photos and comes with various in-built filters.
Talking of the camera hardware, the main sensor and the selfie snapper are 50MP units each. In the meantime, the ultrawide shooter is only 8MP. That being said, due to the high water resistance of the Oppo Reno13, you can shoot underwater photos as well!
