- A new OPPO smartphone has been spotted on Geekbench.
- This is the same phone that was reportedly being tested in India earlier this year.
- Here’s what we have learned so far about this new OPPO smartphone.
OPPO was found testing a new smartphone in India earlier this year, with a reported similar design to the Reno8 T. Now, the same OPPO smartphone with the same model number has been spotted on Geekbench giving us an idea on the specifications of the device. While the moniker still remains unknown, here’s what we can expect on the spec sheet.
New OPPO mid-ranger launching in India soon
- Geekbench is a benchmarking platform which gauges the device’s processor performance.
- The OPPO smartphone on Geekbench carries the model number CPH2527 which is the same as the one spotted earlier this year.
- The phone scores 899 in the single-core test and 2080 in the multi-core test.
- The Geekbench listing reveals that the OPPO smartphone will be powered by an octa-core processor codenamed ‘holi’. The max CPU clock speed of 2.21 GHz. The chipset is most likely the Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 SoC, a mid-ranger powering smartphones such as OnePlus Nord CE 3 Lite and POCO X5. We can expect the new OPPO smartphone to also fall in the mid-range category.
- The Geekbench listing also confirms that the smartphone will pack 8GB of RAM and run Android 13 out-of-the-box. OPPO could launch more than one variant of the phone, and the OS will have the custom ColorOS layered on top.
As for the rest of the specifications, there are still no details yet but we’re expecting to get some information soon. As mentioned before, the smartphone is also said to feature a design similar to the Reno8 T 5G. Going by this speculation, we can expect a punch-hole selfie camera at the centre of the display, and curved edges. The OPPO Reno8 T 5G stands out for its glittery back which is called the “OPPO glow” but we’re not sure if this new phone will also follow suit.
In addition to this mystery device, OPPO also has other smartphones in the pipeline. The company is expected to launch the Reno 10 Pro and Reno 10 Pro+, the Find X6 Pro and Find X6 and F23 smartphones in India later this year. The OPPO F23 launch will take place first as it’s coming to India on May 15th. As for the others, OPPO is expected to launch them soon.
