What the reviewers said

4/5Sep 8, 2026

A solid mid-range phone that ticks most boxes, but its price rise over the Reno 13 makes it feel overpriced, especially given the chipset and lack of wireless charging.

  • Compact, comfortable one-handed size
  • Solid build with upgraded IP69K rating
  • Bright AMOLED screen with 3600 nits peak
  • Solid cameras with natural-looking shots
  • Useful software features and Mind Space chatbot
  • Pre-installed bloatware
  • Mind Space chatbot needs work
  • No wireless charging
  • Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 feels underpowered for the price
  • 120Hz refresh rate is modest at this price

  • Excellent cameras with a strong telephoto lens
  • Clear, vibrant AMOLED display with 120Hz refresh
  • Steady performance and good battery life
  • IP69K dust and water resistance
  • Pricey for a mid-range phone
  • No wireless charging
  • Some software oddities and preinstalled bloatware
  • Can get warm under heavy processor load

Verdicts, pros and cons are short summaries in our words of each publisher's review; scores are as the publisher gave them. Specs are taken from the reviews' spec boxes — where they differ, we show the value most of them give; price is the US launch price of the base model. Read the originals for the full picture.
