Oppo Reno 2 deals and reviews

IT PRO | Keumars Afifi-Sabet

There's a lot to be commended in the Reno2 - a laudable mid-range handset packed full of flagship features and a premium camera to boot. While there are clear shortcomings, its pricing means it's a fantastic option if you're operating on a tight budget.

I thoroughly recommend checking out the Reno 2, and you can go and see a live model in most Carphone Warehouse and EE stores to see for yourself why I think it's such a great choice and a phone that must have the competition worried.

The Oppo Reno 2 is further proof that the manufacturer can design extremely attractive devices. The complete package of design, equipment and software optimization shows the ambition of the Chinese to further conquer markets outside of China.

I've thoroughly enjoyed my time with the Oppo Reno 2, I genuinely haven't felt the slightest bit of difference in terms of my day to day productivity and usability in comparison to the much more powerful Oppo Reno 10X Zoom and my daily driver, the iPhone XS Max.

The Inquirer | Lee Bell

At this price, it's an absolute steal considering the tech you're getting for the money.

What Mobile | Paul Lipscombe

Overall I was impressed with the Reno 2 and found the mid-ranger to be value for money for what it can do.

Android Authority | Dhruv Bhutan

There's a lot to like about the Oppo Reno 2, but the internals are a step behind what the competition offers. However, if gaming is not a top priority, the head turner design, excellent hand feel, and great battery life make it a fantastic bet.

NotebookCheck | Mike Wobker

Although buyers of the Oppo Reno2 won't be investing in a bad phone, the quad-camera system should not be the deciding factor.

Trusted Reviews | Andrew Williams

A high-quality phone that performs well enough in all areas to offer serious competition to more expensive rivals.

TechRadar | Tom Bedford

The Oppo Reno 2 is a decent mid-range device, offering some of the best features of the Reno range at a competitive price. However it's not got the processing power or camera skills of some previous Oppo phones, and it doesn't change the Reno formula in any big way.

SlashGear | Chris Burns

If the OPPO Reno 2 weren't hampered by an off-putting amount of bloatware, it'd be really great. It's a beautiful piece of hardware that's not really failed to perform the vast majority of the time we've had to test.

NDTV Gadgets | Aditya Shenoy

The Oppo Reno 2 feels very much like the Reno 2Z which we reviewed recently, but it does everything a little better ... however, if you are willing to spend a little more, the older Oppo Reno 10x Zoom Edition is still available and will give you the best of both worlds.

Mobile News | Paul Lipscombe

Overall I was impressed with the Reno 2 and found the mid-ranger to be value for money for what it can do.

Expert Reviews | Jonathan Bray

The Reno 2 is perfectly competent phone and a longer-lasting, faster alternative to the Google Pixel 3A XL, with a more flexible camera setup, but you can't ignore the brilliant Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro.

Pocket-lint | Cam Bunton

A premium looking device with a very capable camera system, long battery life and a great display, the Reno 2 is a success. But by flooding the market, and with the latest Realme X2 Pro phone having been announced, Oppo isn't always helping itself.

T3 | David Nield

Another mid-range phone rolls into town offering an appealing balance between price and performance.

GadgetMatch | Chay Lazaro

It's a pleasure to use and a pleasure to hold. It ticks two things that are most important to us: great cameras and battery life. It even has a USB-C port, super fast charging, and a headphone jack.

Stuff | Esat Dedezade

Stylish, innovative and full of stamina, the Reno 2 delivers in spades.

Firstpost | Anirudh Regidi

A great phone with great cameras, but there are better options.

Tech.co | Tom Fogden

...given the range of quality options already on offer, as well as the peculiarities of trying to buy an Oppo phone in the US, we would advise (with a somewhat heavy heart) that you look elsewhere

91mobiles | Deepak Dhingra

There's little doubt that the OPPO Reno2 is a very capable smartphone, scoring high on almost all aspects. It's a smooth performer that offers decent battery life, can shoot well in almost all conditions, and looks great too. However, the one place where it falters is pricing.

The Indian Express | Karanveer Singh Arora

Oppo Reno 2 is a decent smartphone, but the competition is quite stiff in this price range.

Gadgets Now | Robin Sinha

So if you are one of those who want a handset that could do nearly everything with ease while looking premium and backed by a large battery? Reno 2 should be in your pocket. If you want a good overall camera performance and not just a 20x digital zoom, Reno 2 wins the game here as well.

PC Mag | Steven Winkelman

The Oppo Reno 2 is a decent midrange smartphone that takes good photos, but it falls behind Oppo's own Reno 10x Zoom and a number of other competitors.
