The Oppo Reno 4 and 4 Pro are the newest members in Oppo’s premium mid-range Reno series. Launched in China today, here’s everything you need to know about this new series.
The Reno series from Oppo is one of the most frequently updated series. The Reno 4 series will succeed the Reno 3 series which was also launched in India this year. The design of the Reno series is of the best among the crowd, and with Reno 4 series, the company has taken that to next level.
For this season, the Reno 4 has a huge “Reno Glow” insignia embossed across the back of the device. It looks polarizing, but the target audience might like it. It is also extremely svelte with a thickness of 7.6mm and a weight of 172 grams.
Oppo Reno 4 and 4 Pro specs and differences
The Reno 4 Pro sports a curved 6.5-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display with 90Hz refresh rate and 180Hz touch response. The vanilla Reno 4 gets a 6.4-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display but the refresh rate here is 60Hz. Since both devices feature an AMOLED panel, we also get an in-display fingerprint scanner.
The Reno 4 and 4 Pro are packed with 4,020mAh and 4,00mAh batteries respectively with whopping 65W wired SuperVooc charging capabilities which can change the devices from nothing to full in less than 40 minutes.

They also feature a graphite cooling system that keeps the temperature under control during intensive gaming sessions. Additionally, you get an intelligent power-saving mode. Both the devices are running on ColorOS 7.2 based on Android 10.
