OPPO’s latest Reno5 Series of 5G smartphones to launch in the GCC on March 16

OPPO will launch the new Reno5 Series in the Middle East and Africa (MEA) this week. The company’s first ‘all-5G’ launch includes three variants, Reno5 Pro 5G, Reno5 5G and Reno5 Z 5G.

Driven by its 2021 theme of ‘Technology for Mankind, Kindness for the World’, OPPO believes that “5G will empower humanity to live fully connected lives and reap the full benefits of a technology-powered world.”

The virtual launch of the Reno5 series in MEA themed ‘Featuring You,’ will take place on Tuesday, March 16 2021, hosted on OPPO’s official social media platforms on YouTube, Facebook and Instagram.

Key features of the Reno5 series include Qualcomm Snapdragon 5G chipsets, AI-powered all-scene photography, new portrait photography and videography capabilities, and 65W SuperVOOC2.0 Flash Charge – the safest and one of the fastest charging technologies commercially available in the world, delivering a full charge of Reno5 battery in just 35 minutes.

OPPO also partnered with Sony to jointly develop the IMX766 sensor that will debut on the Reno5 Pro 5G, bringing more possibilities for portrait and night video shooting, backlighting and sports. The Reno5 Pro 5G features AI portrait capabilities that combine OPPO’s Ultra Night Video Algorithms and Live HDR Algorithm to deliver greater quality in portrait photography and portrait videography. The new smartphone series also comes with professional gaming-grade hardware and other gaming features.

Both the Reno5 Pro 5G and Reno5 5G smartphones come in light and slim form factors as well as attractive colours and finishes. The Reno5 series will also debut a new silver colour, in addition to the ever-popular black. OPPO’s Reno Glow 2.0 diamond cutting technique adds a glittery visual effect of millions of shimmering diamonds embedded into the back cover while at the same time providing a fingerprint-resistant matte finish. AMOLED screens and 90hHz refresh rate make for easy and comfortable viewing.

“The Reno5 Series is our first ever ‘all-5G’ launch and we are very excited to bring users the latest and best in ultra-fast, ultra-powerful connectivity,” said Ethan Xue, President of OPPO MEA. “Understanding customer needs is a top priority for us at OPPO, hence while designing the Reno5 series, we made sure to pack it with not just powerful hardware and ground-breaking imaging technology, but also the latest in connectivity.”

“Launching a 5G-only series was inspired by our theme for this year, ‘Technology for Mankind, Kindness for the World’, which pushes us to do everything with heart and soul, for the benefit of people. We’re also excited to have our brand ambassador, Mohamed Salah, on board as he sets an example when it comes to achieving goals and dreams, which are also part of our brand’s many values,” Xue added.

GCC consumers can join the virtual launch event of the Reno5 Series in the region, at 8:00 PM (UAE local time), on Tuesday, March 16, to explore OPPO’s latest smartphone technologies. The event will be hosted on OPPO’s social media channels – @OPPOArabia, and streamed on www.facebook.com/OPPOArabia, www.youtube.com/OPPOarabia and https://twitter.com/OPPOarabia.
