I still remember when phone cameras couldn’t even zoom past 5x without making everything a blur. That’s why the new Oppo Reno 14 series, launched on July 3, caught my attention. A phone with 120x zoom, 6000mAh battery and 120Hz display feels like Oppo is setting the bar high for the mid-premium segment.

A Camera for More Than Just Selfies

If you’re someone who likes to capture sunsets, cityscapes or just the random cat across the street, the Reno 14 might surprise you. The 50MP main sensor with OIS ensures steady shots, while the 50MP telephoto lens brings objects ridiculously close without losing much detail. 3.5x optical zoom and 120x digital zoom sounds wild. And then there’s the 50MP front camera, a selfie shooter that feels like it belongs on the back of most phones.

Performance That Lasts

I’ve had phones die on me in the middle of the day and it’s frustrating. That’s why 6000mAh battery is a big deal. Add 80W SUPERVOOC fast charging to that and you’re not stuck to the wall for long. Under the hood the Dimensity 8350 chipset keeps things smooth whether you’re gaming or juggling multiple apps.

Designed to Stand Out

Reno 14 doesn’t just bank on specs. The velvet glass finish feels premium and is fingerprint resistant, while the Luminous Loop camera design catches the light in a way that makes the phone instantly recognizable. And IP69 rating means it can survive more than just desk duty.

Priced starting at ₹37,999, Reno 14 series isn’t the cheapest but feels like a complete package. If the camera hype holds up in real world use, I can see this becoming a favorite for anyone who wants a premium experience without paying flagship prices.
