Display Comparison
The Oppo Reno4 Pro boasts a bright display, reaching 843 nits peak brightness, ensuring excellent visibility outdoors. While the S20+’s display specifications aren’t provided, Samsung’s flagship displays are typically known for their color accuracy and high refresh rates. The Reno4 Pro’s ‘Infinite’ contrast ratio suggests a typical OLED panel, while the S20+ likely features a Dynamic AMOLED display with superior color volume. The S20+ likely has a higher resolution, but the Reno4 Pro’s brightness is competitive.
Camera Comparison
Both phones feature capable camera systems, but details are limited. The Reno4 Pro’s camera is described as offering both photo and video capabilities, but lacks specific sensor details. The S20+ 5G, being a flagship, likely features a larger main sensor and more advanced image processing algorithms. The S20+’s camera system likely includes features like Space Zoom and Single Take, offering greater versatility. While the Reno4 Pro can capture good photos and videos, the S20+ is expected to deliver superior image quality, especially in low-light conditions.
Performance
The Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G’s chipset varies by region: the Exynos 990 (global) or the Snapdragon 865 5G (USA). Both are built on 7nm+ processes, offering significant performance gains over the Reno4 Pro’s Snapdragon 720G (8nm). The S20+’s octa-core CPUs, with their higher clock speeds (up to 2.73 GHz vs 2.3 GHz), deliver superior multi-core performance. However, the Snapdragon 720G is efficient, and the Reno4 Pro’s performance is more than adequate for everyday tasks. The S20+ will excel in graphically intensive games and video editing, while the Reno4 Pro will handle most apps and games smoothly.
Battery Life
The Oppo Reno4 Pro’s 96-hour endurance rating is a standout feature, indicating exceptional battery life. This is coupled with incredibly fast 65W wired charging, achieving 60% charge in 15 minutes and 100% in 36 minutes. The Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G, with its 25W wired charging (and slower wireless options), cannot compete with this charging speed. While the S20+'s battery capacity isn't specified, the Reno4 Pro’s combination of endurance and charging speed provides a significant advantage for users who prioritize these features.
Buying Guide
Buy the Oppo Reno4 Pro if you need exceptional battery life, incredibly fast charging, and a smooth everyday experience without breaking the bank. It’s ideal for users who prioritize longevity and convenience. Buy the Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G if you prefer a more powerful processor for gaming and demanding applications, a more versatile camera system, and a premium build quality, and are willing to compromise on battery endurance and charging speed.
