Do Oppo Reno series phones support USB-C to HDMI?
No. Oppo Reno phones use a USB 2.0 port without video output. Only some Find X and Find N flagships support USB-C to HDMI.
Oppo, like its sibling OnePlus, keeps DisplayPort for the top Find models.

What to do with a Oppo Reno series phone
- Browser Cast in the app. The phone serves photos, videos and music to the TV's web browser over Wi-Fi. Nothing to install on the TV.
- Chromecast or a smart TV. Cast from YouTube and streaming apps directly, with DRM handled by the TV.
- Return the cable. A USB-C to HDMI cable bought for this phone will never work with it and is not defective.
The full explanation is in how DisplayPort Alt Mode works.
Frequently asked questions
- Which Oppo Reno series models support USB-C to HDMI?
- None. No model in the Oppo Reno series has DisplayPort Alt Mode.
- Why does my Oppo Reno series phone charge but not show on the TV?
- Charging uses the power pins of the USB-C port. Video needs DisplayPort Alt Mode on the high-speed pins, which these models do not have. The cable is working; the phone cannot send video.
- Can an app enable HDMI output on a Oppo Reno series phone?
- No. Wired video output is decided by the phone's chipset and port wiring. The alternative is wireless: the Browser Cast mode in the USB-C to HDMI app, a Chromecast, or the TV's built-in casting.
- What cable works with the Oppo Reno series models that do support it?
- There is nothing to buy. Return the cable if you bought one for this phone.
