Last month, Oppo debuted the Reno 8 series smartphones in China. The series consists of three devices – Oppo Reno 8 Pro+, Oppo Reno 8 Pro, and the vanilla Reno 8.
The China version of the Oppo Reno 8 Pro+ comes with the Dimensity 8100 Max SoC, while the Reno 8 Pro and the Reno 8 come with the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 and Dimensity 1300 chipsets respectively. Now, ahead of its global launch, the Reno 8 Pro has been spotted on the Geekbench database suggesting that the device will feature an entirely different chipset from the Chinese variant.
According to the listing, the Reno 8 Pro global variant has the model number CPH2357. It is powered by a chipset featuring an octa-core CPU with four cores clocked at 2.00GHz and the remaining four clocked at 2.85GHz. The SoC also brings along the Mali-G610 MC6 GPU making it pretty obvious that it is the MediaTek Dimensity 8100 (or 8100 Max) chipset.
Other than that, the listing reveals that the device has 12GB of RAM and runs Android 12 out of the box. Coming to the benchmark results, the device scores 898 points in the single-core test and 3555 in the multi-core test of Geekbench 5.
An earlier report from tipster PassionateGeekz has revealed that the Reno 8 Pro+ will not be launching in the Indian market. This could also be the case for the global variant, which is likely why the Reno 8 Pro model has the Dimensity 8100 (Max) chipset instead of the Snapdragon Gen 1 chipset.
Going with the possibility that the Reno 8 Pro+ model will be launched as the Reno 8 Pro global variant, we can expect a 6.7-inch Full HD+ screen with a 120Hz refresh rate and 950 nits of peak brightness. The device will likely combine the Dimensity 8100 Max chipset with up to 12GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 256GB of UFS 3.1 storage.
For the camera system, the device will feature a triple camera setup consisting of a 50-megapixel Sony IMX766 primary sensor paired with an 8-megapixel ultra-wide lens and a 2-megapixel macro unit. On the front, the smartphone will have a 2MP Sony IMX709 selfie snapper, and the device will also likely come equipped with the MariSilicon X NPU. Other than that, we can expect the device to come with a 4500mAh battery unit with 80W fast charging.
