The OPPO Reno7 series went official in China and soon it will hit the Indian market as well. It won’t come to Europe like all the odd numbers of the series (except the first generation), but there is a chance that the devices from this lineup will hit the European market in 2022 under the OPPO Find X4 series. As for now, the new series is composed of three variants: OPPO Reno7, Reno7 Pro, and Reno7 SE, one of which is a flagship, while the others are mid-rangers. This is a comparison between their specifications.

Design
The OPPO Reno7 comes with a new design scheme: OPPO decided to ditch the curved screen on all the variants and opted for a design with a flat display and iPhone-like flat borders, just like the vanilla version of the OPPO Reno6 series. The exception is the OPPO Reno7 SE which still comes with a flat display, but it has curved borders like most of the other phones out there. The camera module has a brand new look and, on the OPPO Reno7 and the Reno7 Pro, it also comes with a LED ring for notifications and more.
Display
There are not very important differences between the displays of these phones, but the OPPO Reno7 Pro provides the best specifications on paper. The display of the OPPO Reno7 Pro 5G is not only wider, but it even provides a better image quality thanks to the HDR10+ certification enhancing the experience on streaming platforms. Further, it has a higher peak brightness with up to 920 nits. All the phones from the OPPO Reno7 series have an AMOLED display with a Full HD+ resolution, an in-display fingerprint reader, and a 90 Hz refresh rate, but the panels of the OPPO Reno7 and the Reno 7 SE are smaller with a diagonal of 6.43 inches.
Specs & Software
As already mentioned above, OPPO Reno7 and Reno7 SE are midrange phones, while the OPPO Reno7 Pro 5G has flagship-class hardware. It is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 1200 Max mobile platform, which is an upgraded version of the DImensity 1200 providing higher performance. The SoC is paired with up to 12 GB of RAM and up to 256 GB of UFS 3.1 internal storage. Between the OPPO Reno7 and the Reno7 SE, the former is more powerful thanks to its Snapdragon 778G mobile platform, and, unlike the latter, it offers up to 12 GB of RAM just like the Pro sibling. All the phones run ColorOS 12 out of the box, but it is still based on Android 11.
Camera
The only device from this series providing a high-end camera experience is the OPPO Reno7 Pro 5G. It is far from flagship camera phones, but it comes with a great Sony IMX766 main camera sporting a 50 MP resolution and OIS. Unfortunately, the secondary sensors are not good enough for high-end phones, so you won’t get so much versatility. The OPPO Reno7 5G comes right after with a 64 MP triple camera.
Battery
All of these phones are equipped with a 4500 mAh battery, but the OPPO Reno7 should be the one with the longest battery life because it has a smaller display than OPPO Reno7 Pro and a better production process than OPPO Reno7 SE. The OPPO Reno7 Pro 5G has the fastest charging tech with a power of 65W.
Price
OPPO Reno7 has a €380/$430 starting price, Reno7 Pro starts from €520/$589, and Reno7 SE begins at €310/$351. Each device has its pro and cons with the Reno7 being very close to the Pro variant if we exclude hardware and camera. Which one would you pick?
