The Oppo Reno4 Pro 5G and Reno4 5G hit
China in June, but now they are finally ready to begin their global expansion.
Or at least in name as the versions for international markets will likely
differ from those already launched.
The Oppo Reno4 phones will arrive in India
on July 31, while Indonesia will follow on August 6 (the date was later
deleted, now it says "August 2020"). A device with this name also
appeared during a show in Malaysia, but no one in the studio revealed when the
phone is expected to arrive.
Oppo is likely to pull the same move it
did back with the Reno3 phones - the global markets will receive different
hardware. While the Indian teasers on Amazon and Flipkart showcase only the
front, the Oppo Indonesia website showcase the fourth camera sitting in the
upper right corner of the setup - the Chinese phones have it in the lower right
corner.
However, Malaysia will have it even
weirder - the phone has four shooters that are manufactured to look identical
(likely the same on the outside, but different on the inside), but the front
side remains curved - for some reason there is no front cameras in one of the
teasers, leaving us guessing if there is going to be one or two front-facing
cameras.
The most likely reason for the different
phones in Indonesia and Malaysia is that the former is the regular Reno4, while
the latter is the Pro version, and we expect. Reports from India also suggest
the Reno4 will be accompanied by the Oppo Watch, as the wearable is already
making it to non-Chinese markets.
