Oppo hit the UK smartphone market this year with some compelling handsets. The attractively priced Oppo RX17 Pro with its long battery life and very fast charging really impressed, as did the flagship Find X . We also found the Reno 10X Zoom to be a good alternative to leading flagship handsets.

Superb value for money; High-quality industrial design; Great OLED screen; Good battery life; Dual SIM and MicroSD card support

Two of the four rear cameras are arguably superfluous; No IP rating for dust/water resistance

Best phone ever bought by me, earlier one plus user, happy customer, camera, heaphone, speaker, resolution and finger print is awesome

The Oppo Reno 2 Z is a great budget-focused smartphone, but with a hit-and-miss camera setup, it's not perfect

Excellent all rounder phone, went from IPhone to the oppo and will never look back

At $599 RRP, OPPO Reno2 Z offers plenty for the money – including amazing design and feel of the phone, accessories, and good camera shots to share in your social media feeds. Sure, there is no wireless charging (but it has USB Type-C!) and the camera struggles in HDR and low lit conditions.

A top-notch mid-range Android if you value design and screen quality highly.

Good value; Big movie-loving screen; High quality glass build; Neat mechanical front camera;

Quad camera array is a red herring; Could do with a little more GPU power;

After an exhausting 2018, the Reno2 Z sends off 2019 in a way that embodies the best parts of Oppo’s approach to tech. For the $599 launch price, you get bucket-loads of value in the form of a snappy processor, a versatile (if unreliable) quad-lens camera and a solid two-days of battery life.

It’s easy to spot the bargain that Oppo have smuggled into the mid-tier with the Reno2 Z

Flagship features; Slick software;
