“The OPPO Reno 10x Zoom Edition is the brand’s first flagship smartphone and was announced alongside a standard Reno handset”
OPPO’s recently founded sub-brand Reno opened its account with two new smartphones at its event in China today. The company took the wraps off the flagship Reno 10x Zoom Edition smartphone, alongside a standard mid-range Reno offering. The former is the first smartphone to come with the 10x lossless zoom tech that the company introduced at MWC 2019 in Barcelona. The technology allows for less bulky zoom setups than the conventional ones and provides focal length from 16mm – 160mm. Owing to that, the OPPO Reno 10x Zoom Edition is said to click images of subjects placed far off with great clarity and accuracy.
