Oppo Reno13

Oppo Reno13 – what to know before buying accessories

The Oppo Reno13 is the base model of the Reno13 series. The manufacturer specifies a 6.59-inch AMOLED screen with a resolution of 2760 × 1256 and a 120 Hz refresh rate, protected by Gorilla Glass 7i, and dimensions of approximately 157.9 × 74.7 × 7.2 mm with a weight of around 181 g. Unlike the Oppo Reno13 Pro, the screen glass is flat and the frame is made of aluminium. The phone is IP68- and IP69-rated and has a 5600 mAh battery with 80 W wired charging via USB-C, as well as a camera setup with a 50 MP main lens and optical image stabilisation.

Oppo Reno13 cases – types

• Rugged cases – thicker corners and a raised lip around the screen and camera; for those who often drop their phone.
• Silicone cases – soft, with a matte feel, they add little thickness to the slim body.
• Clear cases – flexible, they show off the colour of the phone's back.
• Flip cases – protect the screen in a bag and have card pockets.
• Ring cases – the rotating finger grip also works as a stand.

Tempered glass for Oppo Reno13

The flat 6.59-inch screen is a good base for rigid protection. Tempered glass is available in a clear version and with a black frame that covers the edges and gives the front a seamless look. If you prefer a thinner layer, choose hybrid glass or hydrogel film; for use in sunlight, ceramic film comes in handy, and for privacy – matte privacy glass.

Camera protection and bundles

The camera island protrudes above the back of the body, so it is worth protecting it with separate camera glass. You will also find bundles combining screen glass with lens protection, or a case with glass – the parts are matched so that they do not overlap.

Slim body and choosing a case

At around 7.2 mm thick, the Reno13 is thin and light, and its glass back can be slippery. A thin silicone or clear case will preserve that character while improving grip. If you want more protection, choose a rugged case – it will add a few millimetres, but will better protect the corners and the camera in a fall onto a hard surface.

What to look for when choosing?

• Model – the Reno13, Reno13 Pro and Reno13 F / FS have different dimensions; accessories are not interchangeable.
• Glass and case – with a rugged case, glass that is slightly narrower than the screen works better.
• In the car – with a thicker case, check whether the phone will fit in the jaws of your car holder.
• Charging – for 80 W charging, a durable USB-C to USB-C cable and a compatible charger will come in handy.
