Hardware Specs

As mentioned previously, the Reno 6 Pro 5G that’s launched in Malaysia is different from the version that’s available in China and India. Instead of a MediaTek Dimensity 1200 chip, the device is running on a Snapdragon 870 processor, which is essentially an updated Snapdragon 865+.

Upfront, it features a 6.5″ Full HD+ curved AMOLED display that offers 90Hz refresh rate and up to 180Hz touch sampling rate. The screen has HDR10+ certification and 360-degree light-sensing that promises to offer brightness in any situation. The AMOLED panel boasts a maximum brightness of 1100nits and a contrast ratio of 5,000,000:1. For Malaysia, the device is offered in a single configuration with 12GB of LPDDR4x RAM and 256GB of storage which isn’t expandable.

In the camera department, the Reno 6 Pro 5G gets a quad-camera setup featuring a 50MP main shooter that utilises a Sony IMX766 sensor with optical image stabilisation. This is similar to their top-of-the-line flagship, the Find X3 Pro. Other cameras include a 16MP wide-angle camera, a 13MP telephoto camera and a 2MP macro shooter. Also included is a colour temperature sensor which also sits in the rectangular camera bump.

It shoots 4K videos and the device offers an array of features including bokeh flare portrait video and AI highlight video. For selfies, the device also gets a 32MP front-facing camera that sits on a tiny punch-hole on the top-left corner.

For an immersive video viewing and gaming experience, it has stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos support. Also included is an A-axis Linear vibration motor that aims to provide more detailed haptic feedback for gaming.

Powering the device is a decent 4,500mAh battery and it supports 65W SuperVOOC 2.0 fast charging via USB-C. Out of the box, it runs on Android 11 with ColorOS 11.3 skin on top.
