As for the smartphone itself, the Reno11 F 5G is quite the head-turner, sporting OPPO’s nature-inspired Magnetic Particle design that makes the back of the unit shimmer and shine, while its rectangular shape, sleek profile, and lightweight build make it a joy to hold.

But it’s not just about style: The OPPO Reno11 F 5G also boasts an IP65 rating, meaning it can handle a bit of rain — perfect for the unpredictable Philippine weather.

Elsewhere, the phone packs a 6.7-inch AMOLED flat display with FHD+ resolution and slim bezels all around. Those bezels translate to an impressive screen-to-body ratio of roughly 93.4%, or about as good as it gets in the category, ensuring an immersive viewing experience minus the flagship price tag. It supports a refresh rate of up to 120Hz, plus HDR10+ visuals.

For pictures, you get a 64-megapixel main camera alongside a dedicated ultrawide and a 32-megapixel punch-hole shooter for selfies. The OPPO Reno11 F 5G is also a capable video-recording device, able to shoot at up to 4K resolution. It comes with the brand’s Portrait Expert Engine as well for better-looking portraits with sharper details and more accurate skin tones.

A MediaTek Dimensity 7050 5G chip powers the Reno 11 F 5G, coupled with up to 8GB of RAM and “48-Month Fluency Protection,” which is basically a TÜV SÜD certification that guarantees the device’s optimal performance from day one, with little to no degradation up to 48 months later.

For all-day battery life, this Reno model uses a 5,000mAh battery that tops up quickly via the 67-watt SuperVOOC standard. A full charge is said to take only 48 minutes using the supplied power brick and cable.

On paper, the OPPO Reno11 F 5G looks like a strong contender in the crowded midrange market. Its focus on a well-rounded user experience, from design to performance to longevity, could attract users who want a phone that’s both stylish and reliable. Of course, real-world testing and a closer look at its camera capabilities will tell the full story, so do wait for our full review. But OPPO seems poised to deliver a phone that’s more than just a pretty face.
