The Oppo Ace2 went on sale in China in
late April, originally available in three colors. Now Ice Universe has revealed
an Evangelion Limited Edition of the phone with some beautiful minimalist
decals on the back.
The NERV logo is lifted straight from the
show, you can dig through the Fandom wiki for more details. Neon Genesis
Evangelion has been around for a long time so there’s a rich backstory. In
fact, this phone celebrates the 25th anniversary of the series, which premiered
in 1995.
The release of the fourth movie in the
“Rebuild of Evangelion” tetralogy has been postponed due to the pandemic,
though it’s not clear if that will affect the launch of the limited edition
phone. As for price, expect something north of the CNY 4,000 (US$ 565) that the
base model costs. How much more is not clear yet.
The Oppo Ace2 remains unchanged below the
limited edition exterior. This means the same 6.55” 1080p+ AMOLED with HDR10+
and 90Hz refresh rate, Snapdragon 865 chipset, 48MP main and 8MP ultra wide
camera. The fast charging support is perhaps the most impressive part: 65W
wired, 40W wireless (the charging pad is sold separately) and 10W reverse
wireless, all tapping into the 4,000mAh battery.
