👍 What Stands Out

• Smooth 120 Hz AMOLED display with vivid colors and strong brightness

• Rapid 80 W charging and excellent endurance from 6,000 mAh battery

• Durable build with high IP69 certification for water/dust resistance

• Excellent performance via Dimensity 8350 and ample RAM/storage

• Feature-rich AI photography and editing tools, plus Android 15 with Gemini AI support

• Stylish, slim design with a premium feel

👎 Where It Falls Short

• No wireless charging support (only wired fast charging)

• Lacks higher refresh rate options beyond 120 Hz

• Camera may over-smooth facial details and produce slightly artificial color tones in portraits

Price in Pakistan

The Oppo Reno 14 is expected to launch in Pakistan on August 3, 2025, with the initial variant (12 GB RAM, 256 GB storage) priced at approximately 159,999 PKR. A higher-end 12 GB / 512 GB version may follow at a slightly higher price (around PKR 169,999)

In Summary

The Oppo Reno 14 delivers a potent mix of design, performance, photography and battery life aimed squarely at the upper mid-range segment. Highlights include its premium AMOLED display, long‑lasting battery, fast charging, and AI‑powered camera tools. While it misses wireless charging and ultra‑high refresh rates, and certain image processing choices may not impress every user, it stands out as a well-rounded package built for creators and power users alike, especially at its expected PKR 159,999 price point in Pakistan.
