OPPO recently confirmed that its Reno3 and Reno3 Pro phones are coming to Nigeria very soon, albeit with slightly different camera hardware. The Global smartphone maker has now announced that the OPPO Reno 3 Pro will be launched in Nigeria in the next few weeks.
Once again, OPPO looks to disrupt the Nigerian market with the world's first phone to feature a 44-megapixel dual hole-punch camera setup. The company's new teaser video also gives us a good look at the upcoming phone's quad rear camera setup and the curved glass rear panel.
To recall, the Chinese variant of the OPPO Reno3 series was launched back in December but it only had a single front punch-hole camera. Another expected difference between the Chinese and Nigerian version will be the design and display variation in terms of curves. The Nigerian version will also be 4G as opposed to the 5G version launched in China. This is expected, as Nigeria doesn’t currently support 5G capabilities. We expect that OPPO Nigeria will be providing smartphones with specs Nigerians need while ensuring that the prices are very affordable.
Some other leaks we have will be the 4025mAh Battery Capacity, 8GB RAM, and 256GB storage. We also gather that 2 colors will be launched i.e. Auroral Blue and Midnight Black, to cater for different design tastes.
Considering that Nigeria is a price-sensitive market, we predict that the Reno3 will also be launched here. The good thing is that the Reno3 and the Reno3 Pro are quite similar with only a few features like the OLED waterdrop 44MP Ultra Night Selfie Camera, 48MP Quad Camera that supports 5x Hybrid Zoom capabilities, 5V41 VOOC 3.0 Charging System, phone design/colors differentiating the Reno3.
For a possible N50,000 price difference, the Reno3 itself might even be a steal if you look at it closely.
Once we have information on price, we will definitely update you all. Until then, we keep our ears glued for news from OPPO.
