OPPO Reno8 T: Embracing a new dual micro-curved design; One Step Forward

OPPO has always searched for unique ways to combine innovative technology with stylish design with each generation of Reno series smartphones.

The recently launched OPPO Reno8 T5G, OPPO took this approach One Step Forward by introducing a fresh and creative design putting the new device on an entirely different level.

The first thing a Reno lover will notice is the new Reno8 T 5G’s 56-degree 3D curved screen and design, which is backed by ultra-thin bezels.

The new design on the device is a perfect balance between immersive visuals and an amazingly comfortable grip and offers the user comfort and flagship-level performance.

Ultimate Balance

The Reno8 T5G carries over the compact and lightweight design of the Reno series which measures approximately 7.7 mm in thickness and weighing only 171g.

Holding the new sleek device is completely effortless and as comfortable as ever despite its larger battery and enhanced hardware.

The phone’s front carries the incredible 120Hz 3D curved screen taking the user’s ultimate viewing experience a whole step forward.

The larger 6.7-inch, punch-hole AMOLED screen offers the user a more immersive and boundless viewing experience.

The phone has a 93 per cent screen-to-body ratio, a 2.32 mm ultra-thin lower bezel and 1.57 mm left and right bezels offering a better watching, reading, texting and gaming experience.

Reno8 T 5G offers a practical edge-to-edge screen on the Reno series since it has one of the

highest screen-to-body ratios on any smartphone.

OPPO incorporated several precision optimizations to address user concerns over the durability of the AMOLED display of the Reno8 T 5G.

One of the optimizations include the use of a twice-strengthened tempered DT-Star2 protective glass on the front screen, which was taken through several ultra-durability tests.

The strike tests, deformation tests, wear resistance tests and extreme environment tests are all designed to ensure users enjoy the incredible immersive experience offered by the 3D curved AMOLED display without worrying about inflicting accidental damage on the phone.

Exclusive splicing technique

The Reno8 T 5G’s 3D back cover features a distinct design that attracts attention to three different visual aspects of the phone;

• The metal decorative base of the Dual Camera Design.

• The oval panel design surrounding the metal camera decorative base.

• The full back cover featuring the stunning OPPO Glow color finish.

The Dual Camera Design features two camera modules aligned vertically to create a more balanced and concise look.

The main 108MP Portrait Camera is housed in the upper module, while the microlens camera, the depth camera, and the flash are found in the lower module.

The upper and lower camera modules are bonded together by an aluminum alloy metal at a height 0.2 mm higher than the lenses to protect them from scratches when placed on a flat surface.

Completing the stylish design of Reno8 T 5G is the use of the iconic OPPO Glow finish in two stunning colors - Sunrise Gold and Midnight Black.

OPPO Glow is an OPPO-exclusive manufacturing process that creates millions of pyramid-shaped crystals on the back cover at the microscopic level.

The process gives the matte surface a finer appearance filled with richer colors while leaving the phone feeling completely smooth to hold, allowing Reno8 T 5G to continue to shine without attracting fingerprints and other marks.

With its fresh stylish Dual Micro-Curved Design, Reno8 T 5G brings new inspiration to the Reno series thanks to the application of a series of upgraded manufacturing techniques and the integration of more creative and diverse design ideas to the series’ iconic design.

With the Reno8 T, OPPO has continued to push the design language of the Reno series to new heights while remaining true to what has made the series such a hit with global users.

The Reno8 T comes with a redesigned Fiberglass-Leather Design enabling the removal of plastic edging, a fresh new design around the camera module, and an updated OPPO Orbit Light.

The Reno8 T comes in two stunning colors, Sunrise Gold and Midnight Black.

“All of this is made possible through the seamless integration of a series of upgraded technological innovations and diverse design ideas that involve more premium sensory experiences to our new Reno series products,” said OPPO Kenya PR Manager Fredrique Achieng.

She added, “Moving forward, OPPO will continue to evolve the unique design language of the Reno series to explore more ways in which visual design and technology can be used to enhance the full user experience.”

The new OPPO Reno8 T will be available in all OPPO physical shops countrywide and e-commerce partner Kilimall from March 1, 2023.
