Oppo Reno 14: The Ultimate Guide to the Spare Parts You Need

Hi, tech fans! Welcome to iLevante.com, your headquarters for everything related to mobile spare parts. Today, we're going to dissect a very popular model: the Oppo Reno 14. This smartphone was a sensation when it was released, but like any electronic device, it's not immortal. An unfortunate drop 💥, a tired battery 🔋... It happens to the best of them.

The good news? You don't need to throw your phone (and your money down the drain) at the slightest hiccup. The Reno 14 is surprisingly repairable, and we're here to guide you through the most common parts you might need to bring it back to life.

Before we dive into the parts, let's quickly remember what the Reno 14 is. It's an upper mid-range device, often featuring a superb 120Hz AMOLED screen, a powerful MediaTek Dimensity or Snapdragon processor, and a very capable camera system. But it's this magnificent technology that is also the most vulnerable. So, let's see how to fix it.

The Oppo Reno 14 Screen: The Most In-Demand Part

It's the classic. A second of carelessness, and "CRACK". The Oppo Reno 14's screen is a technological marvel, but it's also its most exposed part. When it's time to replace it, you're faced with technical jargon that can be scary. Don't panic; we'll break it all down for you.

When you search for an "Oppo Reno 14 screen", you'll find several qualities. The choice depends on your budget and your expectations for image quality.

The different types of screens for your Reno 14

• TFT Screens: This is the most basic and economical option. They aren't generally used on the original Reno 14 but exist as a "low-cost" replacement. Expect less vibrant colours and poorer viewing angles. It's a stop-gap solution, but not ideal if you valued your original display.
• INCELL Screens: A step above TFT. INCELL technology integrates the touch layer directly into the LCD. It's thinner and more responsive, but it's still LCD technology. The blacks won't be as deep as on the original.
• OLED (or AMOLED) Screens: This is the original technology of the Oppo Reno 14. OLED and AMOLED (Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diodes) mean that each pixel produces its own light. The result? Perfect blacks (the pixels are off), vibrant colours, and excellent energy efficiency.
• Original Screens (Service Pack): This is the crème de la crème. An "Original" or "Service Pack" screen is identical to the one installed at the factory. You get back 100% of the image quality, responsiveness, and colours. This is the option we recommend at iLevante.com if you want your Reno 14 to be *truly* good as new.

Tech tip: If you replace the screen, make sure you also order a new adhesive seal to ensure it's watertight and the screen is properly secured.

Oppo Reno 14 Battery: Get Your Freedom Back ⚡

The second most common problem. After two years of heavy use, your Reno 14's battery no longer lasts the day. This is normal; it's chemical wear. The Oppo Reno 14 is generally equipped with a Li-Po (Lithium-Polymer) battery of around 4500mAh to 5000mAh. The specific battery model might be something like BLP1014 (this number varies, always check the exact model on your original battery if possible).

How to tell if your battery is faulty?

• Your phone suddenly switches off even when it was showing 20% or 30%.
• The battery life has plummeted (it no longer lasts the day).
• The phone is abnormally slow (worn batteries can throttle performance).
• The most serious symptom: swelling. If you see the screen or the back cover lifting, the battery is swelling. This is dangerous; switch it off and replace it immediately.

What is an OEM battery?

You'll often see the term "OEM Battery". OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. These are batteries made by the same factories that supply Oppo, but they are sold without the brand's logo for licensing reasons. In terms of quality, capacity, and safety, they are identical to the original batteries. It's often the best value for money.

How to change the battery (in short)

Replacing the Reno 14's battery requires patience. Here are the basic steps (DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS WITHOUT A DETAILED VIDEO GUIDE):

1. Heat the back cover: Use a heat gun or a hairdryer to soften the adhesive.
2. Open the phone: Use a suction cup and plastic picks to carefully pry off the back cover.
3. Remove the shields: Unscrew the protective plates covering the motherboard and the battery connector.
4. Disconnect the old battery: Disconnect the battery's flex cable first (VERY IMPORTANT).
5. Remove the battery: It's glued in. Pull the dedicated adhesive tabs, if they exist, or use isopropyl alcohol to dissolve the glue. Never pry with a metal object.
6. Install the new one: Place the new battery, reconnect it, replace the shields, glue the back cover back on, and you're good to go!

Back Covers: When Looks Matter

The back cover of the Reno 14 isn't just there to look pretty. It protects the internal components and often houses the NFC antenna. On the Reno 14, these covers are usually made of glass or high-quality polymer and come in various colours (e.g., Starlight Black, Ocean Blue, Emerald Green).

Changing a cracked back cover is one of the most satisfying repairs. The process is similar to the first step of changing the battery: heat to soften the glue, remove the old cover, meticulously clean the frame of all old adhesive, and then apply the new cover (which often comes with its own pre-installed adhesive).

The 4 Other Most Sought-After Spare Parts for the Oppo Reno 14

There's more to a phone's life than its screen and battery. Here are the other unsung heroes we sell at iLevante.com.

1. The Charging Connector (Dock Connector)

Problem: Your Reno 14 no longer charges, or you have to wiggle the USB-C cable to get it to charge. The part: This is a small "flex" part (a flexible cable) that includes the USB-C port, and often the main microphone and the headphone jack (if the model has one). Replacing it requires opening the phone, but it's a relatively simple, life-saving repair.

2. The Rear Camera Module (Main)

Problem: Your photos are blurry, the autofocus no longer works (it makes a "clicking" sound), or you have black spots after a drop. The part: The camera unit. It's surprisingly easy to replace. Once the phone is open, it's connected to the motherboard by a simple "clip" connector, like a LEGO brick. Unclip the old one, clip in the new one.

3. The Earpiece Speaker

Problem: You can't hear people during calls, or the sound is very faint and crackly (often clogged with dust or moisture). The part: This is a tiny speaker located at the top of the phone. Replacing it can be tricky as it's often glued to the chassis, underneath the screen.

4. The Power / Volume Flex Cable

Problem: The side buttons (volume +, volume -, power) no longer respond or work intermittently. The part: The physical buttons you touch are just pieces of plastic. The actual "click" happens on a flex cable inside. This cable can wear out. Replacing it is often complex as it runs along the length of the chassis.

🛠️ A Word on Repairs: What You Need to Know

Repairing your Oppo Reno 14 yourself is incredibly rewarding. But let's be honest: it requires tools and patience. You will need, at a minimum:

• A precision screwdriver kit (Torx, Phillips).
• Plastic picks (spudgers) and a suction cup.
• A heat source (heat gun or hairdryer).
• B-7000 glue or double-sided adhesive strips to close the phone.
• A lot of patience and a good video tutorial to follow.

Golden Rule #1: ALWAYS disconnect the battery before disconnecting any other component (like the screen or cameras). It's the first thing to disconnect and the last to reconnect. Ignoring this rule is the fastest way to fry your motherboard.

When the Problem Isn't Hardware (Software Issues)

Sometimes, your Reno 14 acts strangely, but the parts are fine. As technicians, we often see customers who think their battery is dead when, in fact, it's a software issue (ColorOS, Oppo's software skin).

A phone that overheats, is very slow, or whose battery drains in 3 hours without being used, might be the victim of a rogue app or a poorly installed update. Before ordering a new battery, try a factory reset (back up your data first!). It solves more "weird" problems than you might think. If the problem persists after a full reset, then yes, it's time to suspect the hardware.
