OPPO is all set to launch the Reno7 series on February 4th. And ahead of the big day, with a new press release, the company has discussed the proprietary OPPO Glow design featured on the Reno7 Pro and Reno7 that incorporates aircraft-grade Laser Direct Imaging (LDI) tech.

The design technology allows the glass back cover of the lineup to achieve both matte texture and a shiny appearance at the same time, something that OPPO has described as being ‘paradoxical.’ Aside from aesthetics, OPPO Glow enhances usability too with its fingerprint and stain-resistance properties.

“The newer LDI technology, which till now has been used to design PCBs in the aviation industry, has been repurposed to etch fine textures—as small as 20 microns in size—onto the photoresist-coated AG glass back cover of the Reno7 series,” the PR details.

Each device’s back features a total of 1.2 million micro-etchings that create a starry illusion, complete with long tails of light.

Durability has also been paid special attention to and the Reno7 Pro comes with a lightweight but durable aluminum frame with a flat-edged design.

Another major highlight of the device is its 2.5D, 6.55-inch OLED screen that’s surrounded by the narrowest bezels ever in the history of Reno. As a result, the Reno7 Pro comes with an eye-watering 92.8% screen-to-body ratio. It is also the slimmest Reno ever and weighs just 180gm.

But perhaps the best bit is the Twin Moon Camera design at the rear with its upper half made of metal and its lower with a ceramic coating. The Reno7 Pro also uses first-of-its-kind 3D “breathing” lights around the camera module. OPPO says that a 1mm diameter fibre is bent to the camera area, programmed to emit soft, pulsating lights whenever a call or notification arrives.

OPPO has been teasing the launch of the OPPO Reno7 series in India for the last few days. With the start of a new week, the company has now officially revealed when the next generation of Reno smartphones will debut in India. It is indeed coming in the first week of February as revealed by a tipster.

The OPPO Reno7 series has been confirmed to launch in India on February 4. Just like the previous gen, this one will also be sold via Flipkart, OPPO online store, and offline stores across the country.

Though the brand is yet to confirm the devices that are coming to the region, it is being said all three models will be introduced. However, we may only see the announcement of the OPPO Reno7 and OPPO Reno7 Pro next week. The OPPO Reno7 SE might arrive later.

The OPPO Reno7 series brings a new design to the lineup. But the specs are somewhat the same, except for the cameras. The Pro model, for instance, sports a 50MP Sony IMX766 primary sensor and a customized 32MP Sony IMX709 selfie camera.

In our review of OPPO Reno6 Pro 5G, we found the performance of the camera system to be not so impressive. But the one on the OPPO Reno7 Pro 5G is actually better. You can learn more about the phone in our review.

OPPO today announced a new limited edition gift box with accessories for the just-announced Reno7 series. The gift box is dubbed “Meteor Treasure Limited Gift Box” and contains a customized mobile phone case, two metal chains, and a starry sky projection lamp. The entire package is worth 699 Yuan (~$109) but you can get it for just 19.9 Yuan (~$3) if purchased with the Reno7 series. Being a limited-time offer, the gift box is available in very limited quantities so you’d want to hurry if you’re looking to grab one.

Coming to the stuff included in the gift box, there is firstly the transparent for the OPPO Reno7 with a shooting star pattern. The case has a couple of metal eyelets using which one of the metal chains can be installed, which will allow you to carry the device as if it were a purse or will simply help you improve your grip over it.

The case is paired with a night lamp. This one isn’t your regular lamp though as it’s capable of projecting nebula and starry sky effects all over your room, creating a mesmerizing little light show. The lamp is a product of a collaboration between OPPO and POCOMO.

As for the OPPO Reno7 series, it is comprised of three models this year, namely the OPPO Reno7, Reno7 Pro, and Reno7 SE. All three have fairly compact, slim, and light builds and features a boxy design, which seems to have drawn inspiration from the iPhone 12 series. The OPPO Reno7 Pro has perhaps the slimmest bezels we have ever seen on a phone and even comes with a unique notification light around its camera bump. For further details on the three models, check this out.

OPPO held a product launch event today for multiple products including the Reno7 series, new additions to the Enco earbuds lineup, and even a smart TV. But the star of the show was obviously the Reno7 series, which has seen much hype over the past week thanks to quite a few leaks and teasers. The suspense has now been put to rest with the launch, as all details about the OPPO Reno7, Reno7 Pro, and Reno7 SE are out in the open.

First and foremost, the OPPO Reno7 series brings a refreshed design but retains the overall boxy rectangular build that was first introduced to the series with the Reno6. However, the bezels this year have been reduced significantly, so much so that the Pro variant sports a screen-to-body ratio of 92.8%.

The back panel of the series has seen upgrades too. An “aerospace-grade lithography technology” has been applied to the rear to create a fine grating texture and a meteor shower-like visual appearance.

And lastly, the Reno7 Pro comes with the much-talked-about notification light around the cameras, which quite frankly, has to be the best use of a protruding camera module. It lights up in a breathing manner for incoming calls, incoming messages, charging, and even for games.

This isn’t all the phones have to offer though, and we have listed all of their specs below.

OPPO Reno7 Pro

The OPPO Reno7 Pro is obviously the priciest among the bunch and is powered by MediaTek’s flagship Dimensity 1200-Max chip. It comes with an FHD+ 6.55-in OLED screen with a refresh rate of 90Hz. The battery of the device is sized 4500mAh which can be quickly filled up at 65W. The phone comes with a star-ring breathing light, measures 158.2 x 73.2 x 7.45mm, and weighs just 180g. To keep heat under control, there’s an ultra-dense graphite sheet paired with superconducting vacuum VC liquid cooling. The phone also features an X-axis linear motor and dual stereo speakers.

But perhaps the greatest highlight of the device are the cameras. A flagship-level 50MP f/1.8 Sony IMX766 sensor has been used for the primary lens which OPPO says has ‘omnidirectional focusing’. It is joined by 8MP ultra-wide + 2MP macro cameras.

On the front, the OPPO Reno7 Pro debuts the 32MP IMX709 sensor – a “super-sensitive cat-eye lens jointly developed with Sony.” This one comes with multiple advanced features and should offer better low-light performance while greatly reducing noise.

Following is its pricing:

• 8GB+256GB – 3699 Yuan (~$579)
• 12GB+256GB – 3999 Yuan (~$626)

OPPO Reno7

The OPPO Reno7 is powered by the Snapdragon 778G mobile platform and offers 8+128/8+256/12+256 RAM and storage variants. It has an FHD+ 6.43-in OLED screen with a 90Hz refresh rate. Its front camera uses the 32MP IMX709 (f/2.4, RGBW) sensor as well, while the back is made up of a 64MP main camera (f/1.7) + 8MP ultra-wide + 2MP macro lens setup. The phone packs a 4500mAh battery, weighs 185g, and measures 156.8 x 72.1 x 7.59mm. Like the Pro, it also comes with advanced heat dissipation features.

Following is its pricing:

• 8GB+128GB – 2699 Yuan (~$422)
• 8GB+256GB – 2999 Yuan (~$469)
• 12GB+256GB – 3299 Yuan (~$516)

OPPO Reno7 SE

The OPPO Reno7 SE is equipped with the MediaTek Dimensity 900 chip and uses a 90Hz 6.43-inch OLED screen. Its rear camera module comprises 48MP (IMX581) primary + 2MP macro + 2MP portrait sensors. The device measures 160.2 x 73.2 x 7.45mm and weighs 171g.

Following is its pricing:

• 8GB+128GB – 2199 Yuan (~$344)
• 8GB+256GB – 2399 Yuan (~$375)

The Reno7 series boots into ColorOS 12 based on Android 11. The three devices have only been launched in China as of now but a global release shouldn’t be too far off.

OPPO, one of the world’s leading smartphone makers, is all set to launch its next-generation Reno7 series smartphones in its home market China today, i.e. 25th November. It is expected to have three devices — Reno7, Reno7 Pro, and Reno7 SE.

The next-generation OPPO Reno series smartphones are expected to get launched in the Indian market in January. Now, the latest report indicates that the company could also launch the OPPO Watch Free and new TWS earbuds along with the Reno7 series smartphones in India.

If the report is to be believed, then along with the OPPO Watch Free fitness tracker, which has already been spotted on the BIS portal, the company could launch the Enco Free 2i TWS earbuds which are expected to launch today in China. However, it has not yet been confirmed if it’s Enco Free 2i that will be launched in India early next year or some other TWS earphones from the company.

Coming to the OPPO Watch Free, the device features a 1.64-inch 2.5D AMOLED display with a 280 x 456 pixels screen resolution, DCI-P3 color gamut, and a 326 PPI pixel density. The rectangular display is housed in a frame made of polycarbonate and fiber while the underside is covered in a material made of nylon plastic (PA) and fiber.

The fitness tracker can track more than 100 sports modes including cricket, skipping, archery, skiing, volleyball, kayaking, and badminton but only four sports can be automatically tracked — running, walking, rowing (machine), and ellipticals. There is even a built-in trainer for running.

It connects via Bluetooth 5.0 and it is compatible with Android devices running Android 6.0 and later as well as devices running iOS 10.0 and later. The device is powered by a 230mAh battery that is claimed to provide up to 14 days of usage. It also supports fast charging as OPPO claims a quick 5-minute charge will provide enough charge to last a day.

OPPO has been working on its next-generation Reno-series smartphones, which have been leaked quite a few times in the past. Now, the Chinese company has officially confirmed that the Reno7 series smartphones will be launched in China on 25th November.

Unlike its predecessors, there won’t be a Pro+ model which seems to have been replaced by the Reno7 SE. If this turns out to be true, then we will be getting the Reno7 SE, Reno7, and Reno7 Pro smartphones later this week.

Based on the leaks and rumors so far, the Reno7 SE is expected to feature a 6.43-inch E3 AMOLED Full-HD+ display with a 90Hz refresh rate. It is said to be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 920 chipset, coupled with 8GB or 12GB of LPDDR4x RAM, 128GB or 256GB of UFS 2.2 storage.

It will have a triple-camera setup that includes a 64-megapixel OmniVision OV64B primary sensor, an 8-megapixel Sony IMX355 sensor, and a 2-megapixel portrait lens. On the front side, there will be a 32-megapixel Sony IMX615 snapper. The device is said to be powered by a 4,300mAh battery with 65W fast charging support.

The OPPO Reno7 will be featuring a 6.5-inch OLED FHD+ 90Hz screen and pack MediaTek’s Dimensity 1200 chipset. It will also have 8/12 GB of LPDDR4x RAM and 128/256 GB of UFS 3.1 storage. It will be powered by a 4,500mAh battery that supports 65W fast charging.

In the camera department, the phone will have a triple-camera setup on the back, consisting of a 50-megapixel Sony IMX766 sensor, a 16-megapixel Sony IMX481 ultrawide lens, and a 2-megapixel portrait lens. On the front side, the device features a 32-megapixel Sony IMX615 snapper for taking selfies and video calling.

On the other hand, the Reno7 Pro is said to have a 6.5-inch curved edge OLED display, offering Full HD+ screen resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. It is expected to come equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 SoC, 8/12 GB LPDDR5 RAM, 256/512 GB UFS 3.1 storage, and a 4,500mAh battery that supports 65W fast charging.

In the photography department, it will feature a 32-megapixel Sony IMX615 front-facing snapper for taking selfies and video calling. The device will have a triple-camera setup on the back, consisting of a 50-megapixel Samsung GN5 sensor, a 64-megapixel OmniVision OV64B ultrawide lens, and a 13-megapixel Samsung S5K3M5 telephoto lens.

While the OPPO Reno7 series smartphones are getting launched in China this week, reports indicate that two models of the lineup — Reno7 and Reno7 Pro will get launched in the Indian market early next year, in the month of January.

At the end of September, details about OPPO Reno7 series emerged from a reliable source. A few days later, the same source has shed some details on the devices’ camera system. Let’s take a look  at what the tipster has to say.

Digital Chat Station was the leaker who shared some information about the upcoming OPPO Reno7 series. Today, the tipster is back again with more details.

According to him, the OPPO Reno7 series will use large-sized camera sensors. He specifically mentions that the vanilla OPPO Reno 7 will come equipped with a 50MP Sony IMX766 primary sensor, which measures 1/1.56” in size.

For those unaware, the current-gen OPPO Reno6 (review) as well as OPPO Reno6 Pro (review) sport an inferior 64MP OmniVision OV64B main sensor, which has a smaller size of 1/2″. We were unsatisfied with the camera performance on these two phones. Hopefully, the new improved sensors on the next-gen bring improvements.

Previously, the leaker revealed that the standard OPPO Reno7 will feature a metal frame and a punch-hole at the top left corner like its predecessor. He also mentioned that it will have a triple camera setup and a notification LED ring.

Last but not least, as per Digital Chat Station, the OPPO Reno7 will compete with yet-to-release vivo S12.

OPPO Reno6 series has just made its way to some markets lately since its initial debut in China earlier this year. But it appears the company is already gearing up to launch the OPPO Reno7 series very soon. A popular leaker has now revealed some details about the upcoming lineup.

According to a now-deleted post by Digital Chat Station on Weibo, OPPO will be soon launching the OPPO Reno7 series in China. Its primary competitor will be the upcoming vivo S12 series. This means vivo will be skipping the S11 branding and jump to S12 from the current-gen S10.

That said, the tipster has only disclosed information about the vanilla OPPO Reno7. As per him, this smartphone will feature a similar front design as its predecessor OPPO Reno6. In other words, the flat display on it will have a punch-hole at the top left corner. Additionally, the bottom bezel will be thinner than the older model.

Further, he says that the phone will have a metal frame. It will house a triple camera setup on the rear and there will be improvements in their performance. Lastly, one of these cameras will sport an LED notification ring.

We expect to learn more about the OPPO Reno7 series in the coming days. The forthcoming handsets will likely use different chipsets like their predecessors.
