OPPO Reno latest news: release date, specs and 7 highlights you must know
OPPO will officially release a new series of OPPO Reno smartphones on April 10. There have been many leaks from both the official and unofficial channels. The rumors indicate that the OPPO Reno will adopt full screen without notch, Snapdragon 855 processor, 10x hybrid optical zoom and 4 color options.
Now, let’s take a detailed look at the main highlights of the OPPO Reno.
Highlight 1: OPPO Reno will be equipped with Snapdragon 855 processor
First of all, it needs to be clarified that there are not five versions of OPPO Reno mobile phones. There are only two versions: a 10-fold zoom version(Snapdragon 855) and a standard version (Snapdragon 710). They are all equipped with NFC and 48-megapixel (Sony IMX586) cameras. The OPPO Reno standard version uses heat conduction gel and graphite sheet to dissipate heat. The 10-fold zoom version also incorporates liquid cooling and heat dissipation of copper tubes.
Highlight 2: OPPO Reno supports 10-fold hybrid optical zoom
The 10-fold zoom version of OPPO Reno’s “flagship” carries the top-level processor Snapdragon 855. It supports 10 times hybrid optical zoom. It also supports contrast focusing + phase focusing + laser focusing. The hybrid optical zoom from equivalent 16 mm to 160 mm is realized by using ultra-wide angle lens + ultra-clear main subject + long focus lens. Both main and long focus lenses support OIS optical anti-shake, and all lenses do not protrude.
OPPO Reno’s standard version carries the Snapdragon 710 processor. The OPPO’s vice president said: “Not everyone needs a top CPU, the diversity of the world is that everyone has everyone’s choice.” He also claimed that the Snapdragon 710 has a level close to that of the Snapdragon 845. OPPO Reno’s standard version supports contrast focusing + phase focusing.
Highlight 3: 93.1% screen to boday ratio without notch
OPPO Reno has no water droplets, bangs and holes, so there is no doubt that it uses a lift front-end camera. According to Shen Yiren, OPPO Reno has a similar chin to OPPO Find X, with a screen ration of 93.1%. Users who have higher requirements for game performance and photo-taking experience can consider the 10-fold hybrid light-variant version. Users who require more about its performance can consider the standard version.
Highlight 4: OPPO Reno offers up to 4 color options
OPPO Reno’s first four colors on the market are foggy sea green, very dark night, mist powder, and nebula violet. OPPO Reno’s full range of mobile phones will be equipped with the official version of ColorOS 6. Some netizens asked if OPPO Reno would invite a spokesperson. Shen Yiren answered, “Do you think I can?” The implication is that there may be no more.
Highlight 5: OPPO Reno supports Dolby Panoramic and Hi-Res lossless music
OPPO Reno supports Dolby Panoramic. Of course, Hi-Res lossless music is also included. OPPO focuses on video. So this time OPPO Reno also supports Hi-Res.”
Highlight 6: OPPO Reno supports OLED panel DC dimming
Will OLED screen blink? Let’s arrange a DC dimming. Whether we can catch up with the conference is uncertain. To ensure stability, we may update the software version after the conference. At the same time, Shen Yiren said that the current OLED DC dimming can not be said to be hardware DC dimming, which is determined by the hardware itself. Screen manufacturers are also developing how to achieve real hardware DC dimming on OLED. Now, all of them are software methods to reduce low brightness stroboscopic. OPPO has done so.
Highlight 7: OPPO Reno supports faster VOOC 3.0 flash charging
OPPO Reno has no wireless charging and no SuperVOOC. SuperVooc has special requirements for the “constitution” of batteries and the space of components. Reno chooses long battery life instead of super fast charging. But Reno had VOOC 3.0, and the filling time from 1% to 2.0 was 23.8% shorter than VOOC 2.0. VOOC 3.0 uses a new technology, which reduces the total charging time by 23.8% with 2.0 power unchanged.
