Oppo Reno 9 series
Oppo announced today a trio of Oppo Reno 9 smartphones – a vanilla Reno9 with Snapdragon 778G, a Reno9 Pro that shares the same body but runs on Dimensity 8100, and a mighty Reno9 Pro+ with Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset and three cameras on the back.

The Reno9 Pro and Reno9 Pro+ both launched with 16GB RAM as a base option, which is a first for the Reno series, and a feature we haven’t seen in an Oppo phone since the Find X3 Pro flagship launched over 1.5 years ago.

The vanilla smartphone of the trio brings a 6.7” AMOLED display with a Full HD+ resolution. It supports a 120Hz refresh rate and 240Hz touch sampling rate.
