The Oppo Reno12 128GB is OPPO's 2024 smartphone featuring a 6.7 inches, 108.0 cm2 (~90.3% screen-to-body ratio) display, the Mediatek Dimensity 7300 Energy (4 nm) chipset. It comes with a 5000 mAh battery. At AED 750 in the UAE and ₹37,999 in India, it sits firmly in the budget tier.
The Oppo Reno12 128GB excels with its 80W wired charging, hitting 47% in 18 minutes and 100% in 46 minutes, and a 120Hz AMOLED display with 1200-nit peak brightness—ideal for outdoor visibility. Its 50MP main sensor with OIS delivers sharp, stable shots in low light, while the 112° ultrawide captures expansive scenes. This phone targets urban commuters in Dubai and Delhi who need all-day battery life from a 177g device and rapid charging during short breaks. The Dimensity 7300 handles daily tasks smoothly but struggles with sustained 90+ FPS gaming, throttling after 15 minutes under load. NFC works across UAE and India, and 5G bands include 78 (n78) for local coverage. In UAE at AED 750, it’s competitive because it outpaces rivals in charging speed and display quality at this price. In India at ₹37999, it’s overpriced—competing flagships offer better thermals and 120W charging for the same cost.
