The verdict, up front

The Reno line's video-pivot moment.

Reno5 Pro 5G leaned into "AI video" — a fast Dimensity, 65 W charging, a slim curved body and a selfie array tuned for vloggers. The unremarkable rear filler lenses kept it a stylistic pick; the design language carried straight through to every Reno since.
