OPPO launched two groundbreaking smartphones, the Reno12 and Reno12 Pro, equipped with cutting-edge GenAI technology. These devices signal a major advance in OPPO’s mission to broaden the application of AI technology beyond premium smartphones.
Sturdy design paired with innovative technology
The Reno12 and Reno12 Pro boast a High-Strength Alloy Framework and a Futuristic Fluid Design, making them the most durable and visually striking phones in the Reno series to date. They offer heightened resistance to physical pressures, such as drops and water exposure. Both phones feature the 4nm MediaTek Dimensity 7300-Energy For Reno mobile platform, co-developed with MediaTek, which ensures unparalleled energy efficiency. This powerful combination supports OPPO’s 80W SUPERVOOC Flash Charge technology, which can charge the phone’s battery from 1% to 32% in just ten minutes.
AI-driven enhancements for a superior user experience
OPPO is accelerating the integration of AI within more accessible devices, working alongside giants like Google and Microsoft. The Reno12 series introduces new AI functionalities, including AI Eraser for photo editing and AI Clear Face, which enhances facial features in group photos. Additionally, the AI Toolbox, utilizing Google’s Gemini large language model, provides tools for creating social media content and summarizing articles efficiently.
The Reno12 series also includes an AI Recording Summary feature in the Recording app. This feature uses AI to extract and organise text summaries from voice recordings, thereby streamlining note-taking and information management.
Advanced camera system and exceptional display
The Reno12 and Reno12 Pro are equipped with the Sony LYT-600 sensor, which includes full-pixel omnidirectional autofocus and optical image stabilization, ensuring sharp images under various conditions. The Reno12 Pro further includes a 50MP Telephoto Portrait Camera and a 50MP Selfie Camera with AI Portrait Retouching effects, offering enhanced customization for portraits.
The display technology on the Reno12 Pro introduces the Infinite View Screen, featuring a quad micro-curve design that reduces accidental screen touches while providing a visually immersive experience.
Optimised performance and connectivity
The launch of the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 platform in these models marks a significant enhancement in CPU performance and energy efficiency. The updated AI LinkBoost technology optimises network connectivity, adapting to the user’s environment to ensure stable internet access. For environments where mobile network coverage is sparse, the Reno12 series offers BeaconLink, which uses advanced Bluetooth to enable voice communication over distances up to 200 meters.

The Reno12 series will hit the markets on 29 June 2024. The Reno12 is priced at S$699 and available in Astro Silver and Matte Brown, while the Reno12 Pro is priced at S$949, offered in Nebula Silver and Space Brown.
