OPPO Reno7 series


OPPO introduced the OPPO 7 series in China in November last year, now the company has started teasing the smartphones in India ahead of launch. The company is calling the Reno7 Pro 5G portrait expert, since it will feature  Sony’s new 32MP IMX709 selfie sensor. It will also feature a 50MP IMX766 rear camera sensor.

The IMX709—exclusive to OPPO—is a customised RGBW (red, blue, green, white) front image sensor that can capture crisper and more evenly-exposed photos and videos; it is 60% more sensitive to light and reduces noise by 30% when compared to traditional RGB sensors.

For selfies, the Reno7’s front camera automatically switches from 85° to a 90° angle when it detects more than two people in the viewfinder to capture multi-person snapshots. Additionally, in portrait photos, camera algorithms separate the subject in the foreground, detect light sources in the background to produce a soft lens flare and finally, blur the background for a more natural-looking Bokeh flare effect.

The Reno7 Pro 5G has a IMX766 large rear sensor that captures more light when shooting photos and videos. It also supports 26 adjustable bokeh levels, said OPPO. It also has Bokeh Flare Portrait video that accurately identifies the human subject in any complex background that we had seen in the Reno 6 series.

Both, the IMX709 and IMX766, support DOL-HDR technology which increases the dynamic range to shoot well-exposed images and detailed low-light videos; the cameras capture multiple long-exposure and short-exposure frames almost simultaneously and fuse them into a single vibrant snapshot. Since it is running a lucky draw from 20th Jan. to 4th Feb, we can expect the launch in the first week of February.
