OPPO recently launched its Reno 10 series in Kenya with Reno10 Pro 5G and Reno10 5G both presented in ultra-slim body, big battery with SUPERVOOCTM for fast charging at Recommended Retail Price of Ksh 56,999 RRP for the Reno10 5G and Ksh 69,999 for the Reno10 Pro 5G.
I got an Ice Blue OPPO Reno10 5G review unit a few days before the launch and have had some time with it and I love it and I know you will love it too. What stands out is the sleek curved finish and the camera system. Like its predecessor, the Reno 8T, the Reno 10 5G comes with a sleek, smooth, curved glossy back. It’s also curved on the front display and features an ultra-slim body. From a distance, you are likely to mistake it for Reno 8T but we will get into the details later.
Apart from stunning Ice Blue design I got, there is also a Silvery Grey version in the market so if Ice Blue is so girly for you, you can go for the Silver Grey version.
Here is a short video of the unboxing.

Camera System
I talked about the OPPO Reno 10’s camera system briefly and I will get into detail later. It has a main camera of 64MP, a 32MP Telephoto, an 8MP Ultra-wide-angle camera and a 32MP Front camera. I will just show its photos now but in the review I will include enough photos taken by the OPPO Reno 10 5G in different modes for us to get a deep dive into its performance in my review article.
Performance
The Reno10 is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 7050 SoC that promising fast and reliable performance to its users. On battery performance, the Reno10 packs a 5000mAh battery, with 67W SUPERVOOCTM charging to 100% in just 47 minutes.
With the additional support from OPPO’s exclusive Battery Health Engine, the effective battery lifespan of both the Reno10 Pro 5G and the Reno10 5G can be extended to as many as hours as possible.
Reno10 5G comes with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of ROM and supports OPPO’s innovative RAM Expansion technology, which virtually converts unused ROM space into up to an additional 12GB and 8GB of RAM for enhanced performance.
