Last week we reported that Oppo would unveil the Reno17 series today, but it turns out that was wrong. The company has now officially confirmed the launch date of the lineup in China.
Oppo’s Reno17 series will be officially launched in China on November 16, the company confirmed in a Weibo post. The brand will also unveil the Oppo Watch 5 and the Oppo Pad Air 6.
Apart from revealing the launch date, Oppo also shared the design and color options for the upcoming Reno17 and Reno17 Pro. Both phones are now up for pre-order in the country as well, after blind bookings went live last week.
The Oppo Reno17 and Reno17 Pro retain a design similar to their predecessors, the Reno16 and Reno16 Pro. Both phones have a square rear camera module and a flat display with slim, uniform bezels.
The phones will be available in Adventure Cat, Cocoa Brown, First Snow White, and Ice Moon White color options.
Oppo has yet to reveal the phones’ specifications, but recent leaks suggest that the Reno17 will have a 6.5-inch display, a Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chipset, and an 8,000mAh battery.
The Reno17 Pro, meanwhile, is tipped to have a smaller 6.3-inch display, a 7,200mAh battery and a Dimensity 8550 chipset.
As mentioned earlier, Oppo will also launch the Watch 5 and Pad Air 6 alongside the Reno17 series next week.
The Oppo Watch 5 is confirmed to measure 9.2mm in thickness and weighs just 25g. It is claimed to offer up to 7 days of battery life and support features such as sleep and menstrual tracking.
The smartwatch will be available in multiple color options and is already up for pre-order online.
The Oppo Pad Air 6 will have a 12.1-inch LCD with a 2.8K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. It will pack a 10,050mAh battery and have 8MP cameras on the front and back. The tablet is powered by the Dimensity 7360 Super SoC and runs ColorOS 17.
It will be available in two colors, with buyers also getting the choice of a matte display. The tablet is offered with up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, in both Wi-Fi and LTE variants.
