Curves especially benefit the aesthetic value but significantly enhance comfort and usability.
Blend of glass and metal:
The premium build quality of the Reno 11 5G can be achieved through a glass and metallic combination. Corning Gorilla Glass protects the rich display at the front, against scratches and impacts.

Good materials and finishes:
Oppo didn't even compromise with the quality material to build the Reno 11 5G. The frame is of aluminum, looks solid, and fine. What makes it even better is that the back panel is available in two finishes glass or vegan leather. With a shiny reflective surface, the glass finish seems quite rich and glossy, whereas the vegan leather provides a bit more texture and grippy feel for the fingers.
Neon Color Tones:
Oppo is sporting the Reno 11 5G in a number of exuberant colours, so users can now pick one that best suits their personal style. The choices include rather sleek black or a more dashing shade of green or blue, according to taste.
