First impressions: Build & Design
Design Elements:
- Material and Finish: The back of the device is smooth and has a matte finish that makes it less likely for fingerprints and smudges to show up. It is possible that the back is made of high-quality polycarbonate or glass, which makes it strong and stylish. Your phone comes in two pretty colors: Amber Orange and Olive Green. These colors give it a unique look.
- Build Quality: The Reno 12F 5G is made to be thin and light. Its width is about 7.76 mm and its weight is about 187g. This makes it easy to hold and use for long amounts of time. Even though the phone is thin, it feels strong and well-made. It has tight seams and a solid build that makes me think it can handle daily use.
- Form Factor: The phone looks sleek and modern, and the ends are rounded, which makes it easier to hold. Thanks to thin bezels and a punch-hole camera design, the screen-to-body ratio is optimized to 92.2%. This makes the watching experience more immersive.
Ergonomics and Usability:
- Button Placement: The power button and volume rocker are conveniently placed on the sides for easy access, and the tactile feedback is satisfactory, contributing to a smooth user experience.
- Port and Speaker Placement: The bottom of the device houses the USB-C port, speaker grille, and SIM tray, with no headphone jack in sight, aligning with modern smartphone trends.
