Welcome, in front of me is an Oppo Reno 4Z, and today I'll show you a couple tweaks and
0:14
tricks you can do on this phone. So to get started, we're going to begin with the dark mode, which you can quickly find
0:21
either as a toggle in here. So once you tap on it, it automatically turns on, or you can also hold the icon and this
0:27
will take you to the settings where you'll have also an option for auto switching, meaning
0:32
that for instance, during the daytime, the device will be in light mode and during nighttime
0:37
it will switch automatically to dark mode, which is really, really nice
0:41
Highly recommend this option because if you wake up at night and want to check the time
0:44
you probably don't want to be blasted with bright white backgrounds, and this will ensure
0:49
that you always have the correct theme. Now moving on to the next option, it's going to be the smart sidebar, and I'm not sure
0:58
if you ever realized, but there is an actual sidebar, kind of like it is on Samsung devices
1:03
It's barely visible, you can pull it out from here and have access to a couple applications
1:08
couple toggles and settings. You can also toggle it off, move it around if you don't want it
1:15
So as an example, if you grab it, drag it out, it kind of becomes thicker and allows
1:21
you to basically switch the side of the screen and also just move it up and down depending
1:26
where you want to have it. And also, I believe you can customize it a little bit under the convenience tools or
1:34
disable it at least, so let's go. Convenient tools, smart sidebar, and there we go
1:42
If you don't want it, you can disable it from here, you can set transparency to it, you
1:47
can hide it, and yeah. And moving on to the next option, it's going to be something that they call Icon Pull Down
1:57
Basically the way I would call it is an improved one-handed mode
2:01
So let's first actually enable this so you can see how it works, because by default it
2:06
is disabled, and you can find it in settings under home screen
2:14
I'll go home screen, and Icon Pull Down, enable it. And what you want to do now is simply, once you grab an icon, you pull it, is it up? Nope
2:27
Quick figure it out. Oh, it's from a side, there we go, not icons
2:39
So my bad, I needed to figure it out how it works myself
2:43
So anyway, this probably will work better if you have more icons on your home screen
2:50
or they are right at the top, and as you can see, once you start scrolling on the edge
2:55
of the screen, it basically moves them down, and from there you just hover over an icon
3:00
that you want to open, or an app, things like music, you let go, and it automatically opens
3:05
it up. So really nice, really handy. And also, what I would call an improvement to one-handed mode
3:15
Now mind you, it still has some limitations compared to one-handed mode, one-handed just
3:19
makes the entire screen way smaller, while this allows you to reach apps right at the
3:24
top without any kind of hassle. But moving on to the next option, it's going to be a simple one, which is a screenshot
3:33
but in here we actually have a gesture for it, which is way better than pressing two
3:37
keys or holding them, like power key and volume down. So all you do is swipe down on it, and it captures a screenshot, and additionally you
3:45
can also make it a scrollable one if you want to. So if you have content that can scroll up and down, like settings, and then swipe it
3:53
down, and as you can see, it automatically starts scrolling down. You basically flick it all the way yourself, or a little bit less, tap on a checkmark
4:03
and there we go. So this is a fully scrollable screenshot, so it is way longer by screenshots than just
4:09
what is visible on the screen right now. And moving on to the last option, it's going to be the split screen, which can be accessed
4:18
through recent. Under the three dots you will have split screen. Now whichever app you open first in split screen will go to the top, and then you can
4:26
open up additional app at the bottom. Both of them are fully functional, and you can use both of them
4:34
Really handy with YouTube, although I would recommend you to open up on top instead of the bottom
4:40
Now that being said, I hope you found this very helpful. Don't forget to hit like, subscribe, and thanks for watching
