Oppo is launching the Reno smartphone with 10x zoom
and we expect multiple variants of this device. One of the variations will be
the chipset, and it appears the different phones will have different methods
for heat dissipation. According to Brian Shen, company VP, the Snapdragon
855-powered flagship will have a copper tube and liquid cooling.
People opting for the Snapdragon 710 variant will
have an Oppo Reno with actual gel or some sort of paste on a graphite sheet to
preserve the Reno from getting too hot in your hands while watching videos or
playing high-demanding games.
Speaking about variants, we expect the Oppo Reno to
have one version with 5G, another one without the gigabit connectivity (meaning
no Snapdragon X50 modem), and even a Lamborghini Edition with 12 GB RAM and
plenty of storage. The official announcement is in two weeks, when we will see
how much will it cost, and when it will appear outside China.
