Oppo launched the Reno 11 in India in January 2024 with a focus on portrait photography and a refined design. Unlike most phones at its price, it included a dedicated telephoto camera for 2x portraits. It competed with the Vivo V29, Samsung Galaxy A35 and OnePlus Nord CE 4 for buyers who valued camera quality and looks.
The 6.7-inch curved AMOLED display at 120Hz offers good colours and brightness. The Dimensity 7050 is a modest chip that handles daily tasks and light gaming well but is outpaced by rivals at the same price. The slim body with a wave-patterned back looks distinctive. ColorOS 14 on Android 14 is smooth and feature-rich, with useful AI editing tools introduced over time.
The 50 MP main camera with OIS, 32 MP 2x telephoto and 8 MP ultrawide make for a flexible setup, and portraits are the standout. The 32 MP selfie camera is also capable. The 5,000 mAh battery with 67W charging lasts a full day. Against the Vivo V29, it offered a telephoto lens, while the Vivo had a sharper screen and IP68 rating.
