The Oppo Reno 8 Pro is the world’s first smartphone equipped with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 SoC, built on Samsung’s 4nm manufacturing process. The SoC is claimed to feature higher performance than its predecessors, the Snapdragon 778G and 780G processors, on the more advanced node.

However, the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 isn’t the only silicon processor under the Oppo Reno 8 Pro as the device also features the company’s in-house self-developed MariSilicon X ISP imaging chip, which debuted earlier in the year on the brand’s flagship offering – the Oppo Find X5 Pro. With a dedicated ISP, the Oppo Reno 8 Pro aims to outperform videography and photographing capabilities in its segment.

The cameras on the Oppo Reno 8 Pro are also stacked as it features the same flagship Sony IMX766 primary sensor as the Oppo Find X5 Pro, with an 8MP ultra-wide and 2MP macro sensor to round up the triple camera island on the back. The selfie camera is also using a flagship-grade sensor as well from Sony which is the Sony IMX709.
