Designed for point and shoot
Like its predecessors, the OPPO Reno 8 Pro It boasts a unique design to attract consumers. The back of the phone has the same camera housing as the Find X5 Pro which integrates seamlessly with the rest of the phone’s back. But this is not designed Oslo to make the mobile look prettier, no. The reality is that this small curvature helps prevent your finger from accidentally moving over the lenses and allows hold the smartphone much more comfortable to time to take photos.
Of course, it also gives the phone a stylish and original look. We assure you that you will not find a similar phone in the market, because even the colors are so striking that you will not find them in the Find X series.
Marisilicon X to power
Going into detail in the cameras, the smartphone’s photographic system boasts of the aforementioned Marisilicon X Image Processorhelping a main camera of 50 megapixels, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera and a macro camera to take photos of tiny objects. There is also an LED ring that we can use as a flash and that gives the camera housing a rather distinguished look.
In the part front there is a 32 MP camera with autofocus, which also allows you to capture 60% more light than previous Reno phones, something especially useful when we want to take selfies at night.
And it is precisely when the light falls, the moment when the Marisilicon X chip and the phone’s main sensor unleash their full potential. This technology, more typical of the premium range than the high range, manages to boost the performance of the camera in low light, both in still images and during video recording. This helps us to have a great natural color palette, lots of details and a nice HDR effect in the right environment, even if we are in dimly lit places.
Here we cannot forget the video mode selective color tools that we can also take advantage of to make camera captures. As you can see in the image above, we can choose to keep the image in black and white and keep the red tones (as is the case) but also the green or blue ones. This generates interesting effects, especially if we take photos of the sky or in the middle of nature.
Many times, to obtain acceptable results, many of us have to activate the Night Mode of our smartphones and wait 4 or 5 seconds without moving the phone so that the capture is as clear as possible. With the OPPO Reno 8 Pro there’s no need. Even shooting automatically, the brand’s algorithms perfectly understand the amount of lighting we have in the scene and shoot accordingly, without forcing the dark areas or burning the brightest ones. All this in less than a second.
And we don’t forget the Smartphone portrait mode, just as capable by day as by night. Thanks to the union of the main sensor, which includes EIS stabilization, and the dedicated image NPU, Marisilicon, we managed to work with that speed of photography to achieve high quality images where the main object will appear with greater clarity and maximum detailwhile also keeping all the background details out of focus to our liking.
Quality night video
The brand has also ended up taking advantage of the chip Marisilicon X to improve the performance of 4K video recording with the Ultra Night Mode. The colors are seen with good saturation, there is not too much noise and a high-quality low-light video is achieved.
In addition, the camera app itself allows us, both during and after the recording, to extract the frame that we like the most with very good quality. In this way we can record a video of whatever we want and not worry about pressing the capture button at all times. We can do it afterwards and get the best shot of our recording.
