According to DCS, the Oppo PKZ110 will be called the Reno 14 Pro when it hits the market in China. While the Geekbench listing suggested that the device has the Dimensity 8400 onboard, the leakster claims that it is equipped with the upcoming Dimensity 8450. There is a possibility that the standard Reno 14 may also feature the D8450 chip. However, this is just an assumption, and we have to wait for further reports to know its chipset. The rumour mill is yet to reveal the model number of the standard edition.

What to expect from Dimensity 8450

On being asked what the difference is between Dimensity 8450 and the existing Dimensity 8400, the tipster said it’s the same as the difference between the Dimensity 8350 and Dimensity 8300. For those unfamiliar, the Reno 13 and 13 Pro feature the Dimensity 8350 SoC.

To recall, while the Dimensity 8350 and 8300 share identical CPU and GPU configurations, the 8350 offers notable enhancements in gaming through its StarSpeed Engine, promising better power efficiency, smoother scene transitions, and improved touch response. It also brings minor upgrades in AI capabilities and potentially slightly better power efficiency overall.

In the same way, the forthcoming Dimensity 8450 and Dimensity 8400 share the same CPU and GPU core specs, as indicated by the Geekbench listing. However, the D8450 is expected to offer slightly better gaming performance, likely due to an enhanced StarSpeed Engine, offering similar advancements to those seen in prior MediaTek chips. Additional optimizations may also boost scene transitions and overall responsiveness

As the Reno 14 series is expected to launch this month in China, the Dimensity 8450 is likely to be officially unveiled just before the Reno 14 series debut. The above leak also suggests that Oppo may unveil other devices like the Enco Clip earbuds and Pad SE tablet alongside the Reno 14 lineup. The Pad SE will feature an 11-inch LCD panel, a Dimensity G100 (upcoming) chip, and a 9,30mAh battery with 33W fast charging. It will measure 7.39 mm in thickness and weigh 530 grams.
