OPPO may enter the gaming smartphone market in the near future. The reason behind it is that 91mobiles has come across OPPO’s EUIPO (European Union Intellectual Property Office) patent listing that showcases a design of what appears to be a gaming smartphone. The renders of the unannounced phone available in the patent filing have revealed what to expect from it.

The renders that can be found in the patent filings show that its appearance will appear similar to the other gaming smartphones such as the Lenovo Legion 2 Pro and ASUS ROG Phone 5. Hence, it seems that it could end up as a gaming-centric smartphone.

The front view of the phone reveals that its screen does not have a punch-hole or notch. Instead, it can be seen sporting a slightly thick forehead and chin. The selfie snapper could be fitted in the top bezel of the phone.

The back panel of the phone has a gaming-focused appearance and a quad-camera setup. The rear design of the phone is quite similar to the OPPO Reno5 Marvel Edition.

The top edge of the device has a microphone, whereas its bottom bezel has a 3.5mm audio jack, a microphone, a USB-C port, and a speaker grille. The left edge has a power key, and the volume rocker is placed on the right side.

OPPO is yet to officially confirm whether it is working on a gaming phone. Hopefully, it will appear at certification sites in the future through which some of its details will be revealed. In related news, OPPO is developing its own image signal processor (ISP) and it is likely to be called M1. At present, nothing much is known about the ISP.
