OPPO has revealed via Weibo that it will be launching its Reno14 series in China, on 15 May at 4:00pm local time. This will succeed the previous Reno13 series, which was released late last year and received a Malaysian launch just a few months ago. A machine translation of its posts indicate that the Reno14 series will consist of a base model as well as a Pro. A few of their specs have already been revealed by the brand itself.
That being said, some posts by the brand references the series in general, while some specifically applies to the Pro model. As per OPPO, the Reno14 series will be equipped with a metal frame, 6,200mAh battery, have an IP69 rating, and an AI-powered ColorOS15. The series is also stated to feature camera setups that come with a 3.5x periscope telephoto lens as well. The phones will be available in four different colour options: White, Green, Purple, and Black.
As for the Pro version, it will house a 6.83-inch screen, and a 50MP ultra-wide-angle camera with panoramic support, autofocus, and f/2.0 aperture. The 6,200 mAh battery capacity is mentioned here again as well, so it may be specific to the Pro model.
Separately, known leakster Digital Chat Station alleges that the vanilla OPPO Reno14 will have a 6.59-inch screen, a MediaTek Dimensity 8350 chip and a 6,000mAh battery with 80W charging support. They also state that its camera system will be a triple setup at its back, one of it being a 50MP main camera. GSMArena claims that the other two will be an 8MP ultrawide, and a 50MP periscope telephoto with 3.5x optical zoom using a Samsung JN5 sensor.
It remains unclear as of now if OPPO will be releasing the Reno14 series globally. While it’s plausible considering its predecessor was made available in Malaysia, there have been no official confirmations.
