After leading smartphone brands launched their flagship models one after another, the focus in the mobile industry has now shifted towards the mid-range segment. Exciting new models, including the much-anticipated OPPO Reno 14, along with offerings from Honor, Xiaomi, and Vivo, are expected to launch between April and June , with prices ranging from ₹11,000 to ₹41,000 . These are expected to shake up the mid-range market in a big way.
As per the latest updates, OPPO’s new mid-range flagship smartphone series—OPPO Reno 14 is all set to launch in May. Leaked real-life images and high-definition renders have already surfaced online. The phone is said to feature an ultra-narrow flat display, a metal mid-frame, and a cold-carved design, which has already become a hot topic of discussion online.
Real images of the OPPO Reno 14 have been leaked. It continues with the flat body design of its predecessor and comes with a narrow OLED flat screen, a large R-angle frame made of aluminium, and a new cannon-style camera layout along with a Deco cold carving finish at the top left corner on the rear. The texture and design reportedly resemble that of an iPhone, giving it a premium feel.
Looking at the leaked images of the silver-white Oppo Reno 14, the phone’s finish is very close to the white version of the iPhone—it looks elegant and premium. While there are differences in the camera design and frame buttons, such a texture in a mid-range phone is certainly a great deal for users.
Additionally, high-quality renders of the Oppo Reno 14 have also been leaked online. The device will reportedly be available in three colours: silver, pink, and light blue. The back panel design follows a clean and minimalistic approach, giving it a light and refreshing look.
As per reports, the Reno 14 series will consist of two models: the Oppo Reno 14 and the Reno14 Pro. The standard model will be powered by the Dimensity 8350 chipset, offering similar performance to the previous generation. It will start with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage, and the expected pricing is around ₹23,000. The Pro version will pack a more powerful Dimensity 9300 chipset, with noticeable performance improvements, and will also start at 12GB + 256GB, likely priced around ₹35,000.
In terms of specifications, the OPPO Reno14 may feature a 6.59-inch 1.5K ultra-narrow flat screenwith 120Hz refresh rate and 3840Hz high-frequency PWM dimming.

According to tech expert the mid-range smartphone space is heating up fast, with brands trying hard to offer better features and value—especially in display and battery performance. New models like Honor Power, Realme GT7, and Redmi Turbo4 Pro are already creating a buzz. This has increased competition for offline mid-range flagships, prompting brands to pack more features and improvements into models like the Honor 400 series, OPPO Reno14, Vivo S30, and Huawei Nova14.
Now that the OPPO Reno 14 series has been revealed, along with its key specifications, it’s clear that this phone will offer upgrades in design, performance, battery life, and cameras. If OPPO sticks to its existing pricing strategy, the Reno14 could be one of the best value-for-money phones in the segment.
