HIGHLIGHTS
* OPPO is likely planning to drop the Reno Pro+ model.
* The series comprises three variants (i.e., OPPO Reno 10, Reno 10 Pro and Reno 10 Pro+).
* There might be a new variant of the Find X6 with a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset.
According to a reliable Chinese tipster, OPPO is reportedly planning to cancel the Pro+ variant of its Reno series for the Chinese market. The Pro+ model, which was previously included in the Reno 8, Reno 9, and Reno 10 lineups, may not be part of the upcoming Reno 11 series, which may release later this year in the home market.
While the specific reasons for this decision remain undisclosed, it appears that the Pro+ variant may not have garnered the desired market response compared to the standard and Pro models in the Reno series.
Furthermore, the tipster said the company is considering introducing a new flagship model in the Find X series. As of now, Oppo’s Find X6 lineup consists of the Find X6 and Find X6 Pro models, powered by the Dimensity 9200 and Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipsets, respectively.
The tipster suggests that Oppo is working on a new Find X6 variant equipped with the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset.
This potential addition to the Find X6 series indicates Oppo’s commitment to expanding its flagship offerings. The rumoured Find X6 model, featuring the powerful Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 chipset, is expected to debut in the second half of this year.
If these reports hold true, it suggests that OPPO’s Find X series will now comprise three smartphones, rather than the usual two, for the Chinese market.
It seems Oppo is considering making changes to the Reno lineup. Historically, the Reno line has consisted of at least three models: a standard version, a Pro model, and a top-end Pro+ version.
However, reports suggest that moving forward, Oppo will discontinue the Reno Pro+ model, meaning that we won’t see a Reno 11 Pro+ in the future. The brand could make up for it with a new Find X6 variant.
Chinese smartphone maker OPPO will likely discontinue the Reno Pro+ variant from the series. The Reno series consists of three phones.
To recall, the smartphone brand recently launched the OPPO Reno 10, Reno 10 Pro and Reno 10 Pro+ in China. But, a report said that the company would soon change that and only launch the Pro and non-Pro variant and shelve the Pro+ model in the upcoming lineups.
On the other hand, the company might introduce a new Find X6 variant with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset. Take a look at the details.
Find X6 with Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 may launch soon
A Chinese tipster has claimed on Weibo that Oppo is dropping the Reno Pro+ from the upcoming Reno series. This change is said to be primarily for China but may also extend to global markets.
As a result, the Reno 11 series, set to launch next year, may not include the Reno 11 Pro+ model. Instead, the company might introduce a third, even more affordable model in the series, or potentially limit the series to just two units.
Although the tipster doesn’t provide a specific reason for this decision, it seems there are no takers for the Reno Pro+ model in China.
However, the same tipster says Oppo will be adding a new device to the flagship Find X series. Currently, the Find X6 lineup includes the Find X6 and Find X6 Pro models, which are powered by the Dimensity 9200 and Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipsets, respectively. The company is reportedly developing a new variant of the Find X6 that will be equipped with the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset.
This alleged new model is said to launch in the second half of this year. Considering that it packs an older chipset, the device could be priced lower than the rest two models. While this is all interesting news, we’d recommend you hold your horses until there’s an official confirmation.
OPPO Reno Pro+ to be Discontinued
The OPPO Reno Pro+ model, previously available in the Reno 8, Reno 9, and Reno 10 lines, may not be featured in the upcoming Reno 11 series. While the reasons for this choice are unknown, it appears that the Pro+ variant did not receive the expected market response compared to the Reno series’ Pro and non-Pro variants, citing a Chinese tipster, The Tech Outlook reported.
Meanwhile, the company is planning to unveil the OPPO Reno 10 series in India in the coming months. It is likely to be seen whether the OPPO Reno 10 Pro+ will come to India or not.
New OPPON Find X6 variant
The report notes that OPPO is considering launching a new variant in the flagship Find X series. The company’s Find X6 portfolio consists of the Find X6 and Find X6 Pro, powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9200 SoC and Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset. However, the source claims the company is developing a new Find X6 model with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC.
It should be noted that the report is based on tips and rumours, and the company has not yet come up with any official announcement regarding the same. Therefore, until the company makes an official announcement, it is best to take this information as speculative.
