A few days back, we learned that there will be a new smartphone from Oppo named the Oppo K10. Rumors are rife that it will be one of the models to come powered by the new MediaTek Dimensity 8000 series chipset. Now, in new development, we learn that the smartphone will come with an impressive fast charging solution. The Oppo K10 has passed China’s 3C certification site with model number PGIM10. The smartphone has a charger with model number VCB8JACH and it will have 80W fast charging support.
Furthermore, the tipster @BaldPanda
revealed that the smartphone will come with a combination of the new Dimensity
8000 SoC and 80W fast charging technology. This clears up the previous
confusion, where we were unsure of which 8000 series processor the K10 would
have, whether the 8000 or the 8100.
For starters, the Dimensity 8000 and 8100
are new mid-range chipsets, but the Dimensity 8000 has a slightly slower GPU
compared to the Dimensity 8100. MediaTek has officially confirmed that the
first smartphone coming with these chips would be by the end of Q1. So, we can
expect the Oppo K10 to arrive in the coming months.
It is worth noting that Oppo will not be
the only brand to bring the Dimensity 8000 series chipset phones. Some of the
first brands to launch phones with either the 8000 or 8100 SoCs would be
OnePlus and Redmi. While the name of the upcoming OnePlus handset powered by
this chip is yet to be known, we do know that Redmi’s K50 Pro will use the 8000
series processor.
