OPPO Reno7 and Reno7 Pro specifications

The OPPO Reno7 Pro front design had been revealed through a leaked live image earlier today. It showed that the phone has a flat screen and a left-positioned punch-hole cutout. As for the specifications, the OPPO Reno7 is said to sport a 6.5-inch FHD+ OLED display with 1,080 X 2,400 pixels resolution, 90Hz refresh rate (however, there are rumours it may have a 120Hz panel), and a punch-hole cutout. The most recent leak says it will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G chipset, while an earlier leak claimed it would come with the Snapdragon 888 chipset.

It is said to pack up to 12GB RAM, 256GB storage and a 4500mAh battery with 65W fast charging support. The Reno 7 Pro is said to get a triple camera setup on the back, with a 50MP primary sensor, a 16MP secondary lens, and a 13MP third sensor. It could have a 32MP snapper on the front for selfies and video chats. Connectivity features include 5G, 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth, GPS and USB Type-C. The phone could have an in-display fingerprint sensor for security.

The standard OPPO Reno7 will also have similar specifications. This means it will have a 6.5-inch OLED display with FHD+ resolution (1,080 X 2,400 pixels resolution), 90Hz refresh rate, and punch-hole cutout. The standard Reno7 is said to be powered either by the MediaTek Dimensity 1200 or the Dimensity 900 chipset. It is said to pack up to 12GB RAM, 256GB storage and the same 4,500mAh battery with 65W fast charging support.
