The OPPO Reno12 F 5G will be launching in the Philippines this August 20, 2024 to complete the Reno12 series. Like the previous F smartphones, it will be placed at the bottom of the stack to be competitive at a more affordable price point.
First debuting over in Thailand, the OPPO Reno12 F 5G packs a MediaTek Dimensity 6300 chip with up to 12GB LPDDR4X RAM and up to 512GB UFS 2.2 storage. Its display is a 6.67-inch 2400 x 1080 120Hz OLED display with In-Display Fingerprint Scanning and its chassis is rated for IP64 dust and water resistance.
For imaging, it has a 50MP f/1.8 main camera, an 8MP f/2.2 ultrawide, and a 2MP f/2.4 macro at the back and a 32MP f/2.4 front-facing camera. AI-assisted tools such as AI Eraser 2.0 and AI Studio will be available on the device.
OPPO says that it improves signal integrity with AI LinkBoost and 360° Surround Antenna. The latter consists of 9 antennas to provide better signal even while in a crowded area. Bluetooth is enhanced with BeaconLink by up to 300% with device-to-device Bluetooth calls enabled for up to 200 meters.
A 5,000mAh battery powers the device and can be charged with 65W SuperVOOC. Two color options are going to be available: Amber Orange and Olive Green.
