The first impression of the design, coming from someone who has tested so many phones over the years, is that it is good. The size is just right, it’s not too thick or chunky & not so light that it feels cheap.
The frame and the back panel are made from plastic but could easily be mistaken for glass and metal. You’d only really notice the difference if you scratch the surface. The edges are flat & the corners are rounded, just like an iPhone.
The button placement is identical to the Samsung layout, with the power button and volume rocker on the right and left sides completely blank.
Surprisingly, the Reno does have stereo speakers, with one speaker at the top of the screen and the second along the bottom. And they sound good especially for such an affordable phone.
