Display Comparison
Both phones feature OLED displays, but the Oppo Reno6 5G boasts a measured peak brightness of 632 nits, significantly higher than the Desire 22 Pro's likely lower brightness. The Reno6 5G also advertises an 'infinite' contrast ratio, suggesting excellent blacks and vibrant colors. While the Desire 22 Pro's display is likely adequate, the Reno6 5G offers a noticeably better viewing experience.
Camera Comparison
While specific camera specs are limited, the Oppo Reno6 5G is generally expected to have a more capable camera system. Oppo is known for its image processing and features. The Desire 22 Pro's camera is likely decent, but won't match the Reno6 5G's capabilities in low light or overall image quality. Both offer Photo/Video capabilities.
Performance
The Oppo Reno6 5G's Mediatek Dimensity 900 chipset provides a substantial performance advantage over the HTC Desire 22 Pro's Snapdragon 695. The Dimensity 900's Cortex-A78 cores offer faster processing speeds, resulting in smoother multitasking, faster app loading times, and better gaming performance. The Desire 22 Pro is still capable for everyday tasks, but struggles with more demanding applications.
Battery Life
Both phones claim impressive endurance ratings (109h), but the Oppo Reno6 5G's 65W charging is a game-changer. It can fully charge the phone in a fraction of the time compared to the Desire 22 Pro's 18W charging. This makes the Reno6 5G far more convenient for users who need a quick power boost.
Buying Guide
The HTC Desire 22 Pro is a good choice for users prioritizing a stock Android experience and potentially reverse wireless charging, and who don't mind slower charging speeds. The Oppo Reno6 5G is ideal for those seeking faster performance, quicker charging, and a potentially more advanced camera system, even if it means a slightly less 'pure' Android experience.
