Oppo might just be on a mission to totally confuse buyers and media alike. An Oppo Reno8 Lite 5G was recently launched in Spain. And just like the rumors foretold, it is a rebranded Oppo Reno7 Lite 5G, which in turn is identical to the Oppo F21 Pro 5G for India. None of these have much to do with the main Reno8 trio.
An in-depth review of the Reno7 Lite 5G is
also currently under way, so you can look forward to that. In the meantime, the
European Reno8 Lite 5G is rocking a 6.43-inch, FullHD+, 60Hz AMOLED display
with a punch hole for a 16MP selfie camera in the top left corner. Also, an
under-display fingerprint reader. The rest of its cameras include a 64MP main
snapper and two 2MP supplementary sensors - one for depth data and the other
for macro shots.
Powering the Reno8 Lite 5G is a Snapdragon
695 chipset paired with 8GB of RAM (expandable by up to 5GB more via virtual
memory) and 128GB of expandable storage. Keeping the light on is a 4,500 mAh
battery with 33W fast charging support.
Some other random features include 5G
SA/NSA support, a 3.5mm audio jack, NFC and a basic IPX4 ingress protection
rating. We also assume that the stylish blue ring aura lights underneath the
rear cameras will be present as well. The thin 159.9 x 73.2 x 7.5 mm and light
(173 g) phone is offered in two color options - Cosmic Black and the much more
interesting Rainbow Spectrum. The carrier price tag for the Reno8 Lite 5G in
Spain is EUR 429, and it should be available for purchase later this month.
