As usual, OPPO is set to launch another mid-range smartphone series with the typical high-end features it normally offers, as it looks to expand its penetration into the Nigerian market. From the look of things, the new OPPO Reno 5 Series should be unveiled in March but we are still uncertain about this because the OPPO Reno 4 Series was not launched here in Nigeria at all.
In the middle of this uncertainty, the specs and juicy details of OPPO Reno 5 have been leaked online. Tech Reviewer Fisayo Fosudo tweeted pictures and some specs of the Reno 5.
If the OPPO Reno 5 releases in India and UAE are anything to go by, we might be able to guess that the OPPO Reno 5 Series should be having 3 different versions – OPPO Reno 5 Pro, OPPO Reno 5 and OPPO Reno 5F. We are just concerned that OPPO may choose to sell only the OPPO Reno 5 and OPPO Reno 5F versions, considering the currency exchange rate.
A poster assessed from GizmoChina shows that the OPPO Reno 5 may come with a 50W VOOC Flash Charge, Motion Gesture Technology and an AI powered 64MP Camera. Although the leaked version says it is a 5G device, we can confidently predict that OPPO won’t sell a 5G enabled device here in Nigeria. Other leaked specs include Intelligent Motion/Air Gestures, a 6.55-inch full HD+ OLED curved display with a 90Hz refresh rate and a screen-to-body ratio of 92.1%, a 4,350 mAh battery and the new ColorOS 8, based on the new Android 11.
As for price, we are guessing that the OPPO Reno 5 may sell not higher than N150,000, which is around the price the OPPO Reno 3 was last sold.
