Oppo‘s recently launched Reno 11 series in China might soon be heading to a global audience. The standard Reno 11 5G has been spotted on the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC) database in Thailand, hinting at an imminent launch. The smartphone appeared with the model number CPH2599, just after the NBTC approval of the Reno 11 Pro 5G (model number CPH2607). Unfortunately, the certification doesn’t reveal any further details about the device’s specs or features.
However, the exact specifications of the
global Reno 11 models remain unclear. While the Chinese versions boast a
MediaTek Dimensity 8200 chipset, a recent Geekbench listing for the global Reno
11 5G suggests that the smartphone may opt for a mid-range MediaTek Dimensity
1080 SoC.
In other words, it’s unclear if the global
Reno 11 will be the same as the Reno 11 in China, or whether a cutdown version
of the same. But this difference isn’t surprising, as last year’s Reno 10 also
had differing specifications between its global and Chinese versions. However,
the Pro models maintained similar specs across regions. To recap Chinese Reno
11’s specifications, it comes with a 6.7-inch curved-edge OLED display with a
120Hz refresh rate and impressive 950 nits of brightness. The screen is also
home to a 32MP selfie shooter.
Around the back, it comes with a 50MP Sony
LYT-600 primary sensor with OIS, an 8MP ultra-wide lens, and a 32MP IMX709
telephoto sensor for 2x zoomed-in shots. Likewise, fueling the device is a 4800mAh
battery with 67W fast charging support, while the latest ColorOS 14 based on
Android 14 handles the software side of things.
While the official launch date for the
global Reno 11 series remains unknown, we can expect the devices to arrive
sometime in the first quarter of 2024.
