Oppo Reno 8 Pro review: DesignWhat's immediately striking about the Oppo Pro 8 is just how reflective it is. If you’re in the habit of touching up your makeup on the train, perhaps you don’t need to carry a mirror any more. The back of the phone is silvered and glass-coated, and also an absolute smear and fingerprint magnet. It is, however, great for taking selfies, or signalling for help when trapped up a mountain in the desert.
There's no headphone socket, just a USB-C port and small speaker grille to break the smooth edge of the phone, with a SIM tray at the bottom, volume rocker on the left, and lock button on the right. This lock button glows green, even when the phone is switched off – something it can be hard to do, as by default holding the button for any length of time invokes the Google Assistant. A quick swap in the Settings app, and you’ll be able to turn the phone off again.
Most interesting is the presence of an NPU, a neural processing unit, the MariSilicon X, which enables 4K night mode video and real-time processing and noise-reduction of the camera feed with its fearsome approach to algorithms. It was first seen on the range-topping Oppo Find X5 from earlier this year, and the low-light shots from the phone’s camera appear excellent, as we shall see. It’s not in the standard Oppo Reno 8, just the Pro version.
