OPPO recently announced the Reno 7A: the last ever phone from the Reno7 Series. It went official in the Japanese market and it is one of the few budget phones with a waterproof body in the market. Right after, Motorola came up with the Moto G52j: a device that seems released just to compete with the Reno. Indeed, just like the 7A, it has a waterproof body and the same processor, and it is sold in the same price range. But which one is the best waterproof budget phone? This is a comparison between the main specifications of the OPPO Reno 7A and the Motorola Moto G52j which will give you an answer.

Design

The most beautiful design belongs to the OPPO Reno 7A. It looks very minimalistic and modern, with flat borders and the OPPO Glow finish. It is more compact, thinner, and lighter than the Motorola Moto G52j because it has a smaller display and a smaller battery. Its rear side is cleaner and the phone looks like a higher-end device, even though it is made of polycarbonate. Unfortunately, the Motorola Moto G52j is bigger and chunkier, not exactly the most elegant phone out there. But these two phones share an important thing in common: their waterproof body. Thanks to the IP68 certification, they are able to go underwater up to 1.5 meters deep without any damage for a maximum time of 30 minutes, and they are even dustproof. It is very hard, almost impossible in 2022, to find an affordable phone with the IP68 certification.

 

Display

The OPPO Reno 7A wins the display comparison very easily. Unlike its rival, it comes with an AMOLED display showing more brilliant colors and deeper blacks. The display is more compact, but its image quality is actually higher. The screen has a 90 Hz refresh rate, a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels, a touch sampling rate of 180 Hz, and even an in-display fingerprint reader. The Motorola Moto G52j comes with a below-average IPS LCD display sporting a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2460 pixels and the fingerprint scanner is side-mounted instead of being inside the display. But the display of the Motorola Moto G52j is very good for gamers because it has a wide 6.8-inch diagonal and a very high 120 Hz refresh rate allowing for a smoother viewing experience.

 

Specs & Software

The hardware departments of these two phones are exactly the same. They are powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 5G mobile platform with an octa-core architecture, built at 6 nm and running at a max frequency of 2.2 GHz. It is a good SoC for the midrange segment, providing sufficient performance in every scenario and the 5G connectivity as well. The chipset is paired with 6 GB of LPDDR4x RAM and 128 GB of UFS 2.2 internal storage which you can furtherly expand with a micro SD. They are good phones in terms of performance, but they are far from the high-end segment. They run Android 11 out of the box. The OPPO Reno 7A has a highly customized user interface on top, while the Motorola Moto G52j has a nearly-stock Android version with My UX.

 

Camera

The Motorola Moto G52j is a more advanced camera phone because it has better sensors on the rear side. The main camera is a 50 MP shooter which is actually better than the 48 MP main camera found on the OPPO Reno 7A. The 7A lacks an ultrawide camera, while the Motorola Moto G52j provides an 8 MP ultrawide lens. On the other hand, the Reno has a better front camera with a 16 MP resolution, thanks to which you can shoot selfies with a higher level of definition.

 

Battery

Besides being a better camera phone, the Motorola Moto G52j is even a better battery phone. It has a bigger 5000 mAh battery which lasts more on a single charge in a lot of scenarios, while the OPPO Reno 7A has just 4500 mAh on board. So there is no doubt about the phone that provides the longest battery life, even though the Reno has a more efficient AMOLED display.

 

Price

The OPPO Reno 7A can actually be purchased for about $334/€320, while you need $310/€297 to grab a unit of the Motorola Moto G52j. Note that these two phones are only available in Japan, there is no other market which got them and we do not know whether or not these devices will make their way to other regions. The OPPO Reno 7A wins the design and display comparisons (as well as the software comparison thanks to a better user interface), while the Motorola Moto G52j has better cameras and a bigger battery. Which one would you pick?

It is very rare to find a waterproof phone in the budget segment. The most advanced IP certifications are often reserved for the most expensive flagships due to the high costs necessary in order to make a phone waterproof. But there are a few affordable phones with these certifications that you can buy in the current market, at least if you live in certain regions. Among these, there is the new OPPO Reno 7A, announced a bunch of hours ago. Another device with a water resistant design is the Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G sold in the global market: this device reached very interesting street prices and a lot of people are choosing it not only because of its water resistance but also because of its specifications. This is a comparison between the specifications of the OPPO Reno 7A and the Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES Dual SIM slot, 5G, IP68 certification Dual SIM slot, 5G, IP67 certification

Design

Starting with the design and the build quality, the OPPO Reno 7A is the clear winner in this duo. First of all, it is thinner, lighter, and even more compact than the Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G. Its design is more beautiful, with more suggestive color variants and a punch-hole display with a hole placed in the upper left corner. Further, it has better water resistance: thanks to the IP68 certification, it is waterproof and you can put it underwater up to 1.5 meters deep for a max time of 30 minutes. Instead, the Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G comes with the inferior IP67 certification allowing you to put the phone underwater just 1 meter deep and for a max time of 30 minutes. So if you are looking for the best phone in terms of water resistance, you should go for the OPPO Reno 7A.

 

Display

Both these phones are equipped with AMOLED displays, but the Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G is slightly better. They come with a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels, as well as an in-display fingerprint reader, but the Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G has a higher refresh rate of 120 Hz instead of just 90 Hz. The A52s also comes with stereo speakers instead of the mono speaker found on its rival. However, you should consider one important thing: the Samsung mid-ranger has a virtual proximity sensor, while the OPPO Reno 7A has a physical sensor. This is an important thing because a lot of people experienced issues or poor performance with virtual proximity sensors during these last years, so you should take it into consideration before making your choice, at least in my opinion.

 

Specs & Software

If your goal is to get the most advanced hardware department, then you should opt for the Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G. First of all, it comes with a better processor: the Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G built at 6 nm and running at a max frequency of 2.4 GHz. The SoC is paired with up to 8 GB of RAM and up to 256 GB of internal storage that can be furtherly expanded with a micro SD slot. The OPPO Reno 7A has an inferior Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 5G chipset built at 6 nm with a max frequency of 2.2 GHz. Further, the memory configuration is inferior: it only comes in a single variant with just 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal storage. Even though the OPPO Reno 7A debuted in 2022 and the Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G is from 2021, both these phones run Android 11.

 

Camera

The best camera phone in this comparison is the Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G and it can be considered a very good camera phone. It has a quad camera setup composed of a 64 MP main sensor with OIS, a 12 MP ultrawide camera, and a pair of 5 MP sensors for macros and depth calculation. The front camera is a great 32 MP snapper that can record 4K videos at 30 fps: note that even several flagships are not able to record 4K videos with the front camera. The OPPO Reno 7A has a disappointing 48 MP main sensor paired with a pair of 2 MP cameras for macros and depth, it lacks an ultrawide camera, and its front camera is an inferior 16 MP snapper. There is no way for it to compete with the Samsung mid-ranger.

 

Battery

The OPPO Reno 7A and the Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G come with the same battery capacity: 4500 mAh. Given that they both feature AMOLED displays and they come with similar chipsets in terms of energy consumption, the battery life should not differ so much. But the charging speeds are different: the A52s 5G charges quicker thanks to 25W fast charging.

 

Price

The OPPO Reno 7A is priced at €320/$336 and it is only available in Japan, while the Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G can be found for less than €280/$294 globally (prices vary depending on the market). The Samsung mid-ranger wins the comparison, but note that the Reno 7A has better water resistance.
