Should you wait for the OPPO Reno 14 series?
It might be a while before the OPPO Reno 14 series launches in India, and whether it’s worth the wait depends on your priorities. The Reno series has never been performance-centric; instead, it focuses on design, camera capabilities, and battery life. According to reports, the Reno 14 series will feature a flat display, a cleaner, iPhone-like design, a larger 6,000mAh battery, and 80W fast charging. If these upgrades are introduced at a similar price point to the Reno 13’s starting price of Rs 37,999, the Reno 14 could prove to be a strong contender in its segment.
