It has been more than four months since OPPO unveiled the Reno5 series in China. News of a successor, the Reno6 series, has been circulating since March, and now there is a chance the new phones will be announced this month.

According to a report from China, OPPO will hold a mid-year gala on May 22. The event will have lots of celebrities in attendance and there are speculations that the event will double as the launch date of the Reno6 series.

OPPO Reno5 Pro 5G

It turns out that OPPO has used this mid-year event to announce some of its phones in the past. The OPPO R15 was announced at the 2018 edition gala while the first-gen Reno series made its debut at the 2019 gala. So it is not far-fetched to presume the Reno6 to be announced at this year’s event.

There are three models expected to launch – the Reno6 which will have a Dimensity 1200 chipset and a 90Hz display, the Reno6 Pro with a Snapdragon 870 processor and a 90Hz display, and the Reno6 Pro+ powered by a Snapdragon 888 processor and with a 120Hz refresh rate. All three phones have been reported to have a 4500mAh battery capacity with support for 65W fast wired charging and support for 30W wireless fast charging.

The Reno6 series will most likely launch outside China much later considering the Reno5 series just made its way to some markets.

OPPO PEXM00 appears on TENAA with 6.43-inch display, 7.9mm thickness, & more

OPPO is working on several smartphones including OPPO F, and A series apart from the reno series of devices. Also, we are already talking about the reno6 series launching in China. And add to this, a new TENAA listing reveals key specs and images of the OPPO PEXM00.

The OPPO smartphone appearing on China’s TENAA with model number PEXM00 is a 5G mobile device. Recently, OPPO has transitioned itself into launching both 5G and 4G versions of devices according to the market needs and one such example is the recent OPPO A74, OPPO A54 devices.

OPPO’s reno series of devices recently have had the PE_M00, PD__M00 model numbers while the F and A series have been spotted with CPHxx. Even this hasn’t been constant as OPPO A55, A93 5G has PEMM00 and PEMM00 respectively. Hence, we aren’t sure about the name of the device in question just yet.

Talking about the specs, the listing shows that the device measures 159.1×73.4×7.9mm. The images show that the device has a Triple-camera setup like the F and A series devices but there is a yellow line separating the sensors and the LED flash. The blue color variant listed has a power button on the right, volume buttons to the left.

Further, the listing also shows that the device has a 6.43-inch display on the front. The device also has a dual-cell battery with 2100mAh as each cell’s capacity.

In addition to the TENAA images vaguely showing the camera specs, the camerafv5’s database suggests that the OPPO PEXM00 could have a 64MP main camera and a 32MP selfie shooter. Other specs include a SA/NSA 5G and Android 11 OS.

OPPO could bring Wireless Charging up to 30W for the Reno6 series of smartphones

Balaji S — Mon, 15 Mar 2021 15:43:48 +0000

OPPO brought the Reno5 series to China just three months back. The company has launched multiple handsets inside the series including the flagship Reno5 Pro+ 5G. However, none of the devices support wireless charging. That is about to change soon as Reno6 is expected to bring support for 30W wireless charging.

Leaker Digital Chat Station has said that three new OPPO Reno6 series of smartphones are in the final stages of testing. He is expecting an early launch this year, and considering we are getting the info just three months after the Dec’2020 launch, we can expect towards the end of H1 or the beginning of H2 2021.

Anyway, he hasn’t spoken anything about the naming scheme of the devices but going by the past record, we can expect it to be Reno6, Reno6 Pro, and Reno6 Pro+. These are just our guesses so let’s wait for the official word. Anyway, he also says that OPPO will finally bring the Wireless charging tech to the mid-high segment of devices.

If this turns out to be true, the affordable Reno series of smartphones will support wireless charging. Specifically, he says that the devices will support up to 65W wired fast charging(should be SuperVOOC 3.0) and 30W wireless charging.

OPPO recently unveiled the Find X3 series of devices and the devices support up to 30W AirVOOC Flash Charge charging protocol. This company has launched a 45W AirVOOC charger already and it might just aid OPPO in selling the Reno6 series in the future even if the overall price jumps up a bit.

It’s too early to comment on the specs of the Reno6 series of devices but looking at the predecessors, we think that OPPO might continue the Qualcomm + MediaTek combo. That said, the top-of-the-line flagship is very likely to feature the next-gen flagship processor of Qualcomm just like the Reno5 Pro+ 5G.
