OPPO has today announced that the company has entered into a partnership with telecom operator Orange (France Telecom) to launch an eSIM variant of the OPPO Watch in the European market.
Not just the OPPO Watch, more products from the company will also be adopted for the Orange network, including two new 5G smartphones — Reno 4Z 5G and Reno 4 Pro 5G, along with a 4G smartphone named OPPO A72.
