Oppo India is set to introduce its Reno series in the country, with a number of advertisements, teaser images and GIF clips being shared on social media platforms, to create the buzz needed. The premium smartphone series will be launched in India on May 28 at an event in Gurugram. The launch event will start around 12 noon and the official prices as well as features of the series will be unveiled there. The series has already been launched in Oppo's home market China and is finally set to arrive in India to heat up the competition in the premium segment.

In China, the smartphone manufacturer offers two smartphones as part of the series - Oppo Reno and the Reno 10X Zoom Edition. Even though most features of these smartphones are expected to be a part of the Indian variants, it won't be a surprise if the company decides to make a few changes to cater the local demands. 

A similar strategy was followed by Oppo's competitor Xiaomi with its Redmi Note 7 series earlier this year. While in China, Xiaomi introduced the Redmi Note 7 with a 48MP rear camera, in India the sensor was only given in the Pro variant of the smartphone - the Redmi Note 7 Pro, which was priced slightly more. 

What to expect from Oppo Reno series?

The new Reno series is expected to come with a powerful camera setup.  The teasers released so far, do not talk much about the standard Reno variant but the Reno 10X edition will come with a “powerful 10x Hybrid Zoom, 48MP Camera, and the blazing fast Qualcomm Snapdragon 855”, Oppo India tweeted recently. In China, the standard variant has a 6.4-inch full-screen display and Snapdragon 710 SoC ticking at its core. The phone sports a dual 48-megapixel + 5-megapixel sensor on the rear and a 16-megapixel selfie shooter on the wedge-shaped pop-up camera.

The live streaming of the Oppo Reno series India launch will be available on Oppo India's YouTube page. You can also get the latest updates on company's official social media platforms.
