Anita - Mar 20, 2019

The Oppo Reno CPH1921 and CPH1919 powered by the Snapdragon 855 SoC and one of which will have 5G network support.

Oppo Reno has passed the Bluetooth SIG certification with CPH1921 and CPH1919 model numbers, which confirms rumours for various versions. In the comparison between two listings, the CPH1921 will have support for 5G connectivity with n78 band, while the CPH1919 supports 4G LTE connectivity.

According to the listing, both devices will have a triple rear camera setup comprising of a 48MP sensor, an 8MP sensor, and a 13 MP sensor, which was already revealed in the previous teaser. Also, the devices will sport a Dynamic AMOLED display similar to the ones on the Samsung Galaxy S10 flagships. But, the Reno smartphone’s display will not come with a hole like the Galaxy S10 smartphones, indicating that we can see a conventional notch housing a 16MP sensor or a pop-up selfie camera.

Both model numbers will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 SoC. Also, there was another model number - CPH1927 - powered by the Snapdragon 710 SoC, which is expected to be a lower-level Oppo Reno. It is known that Chinese phone makers produce this phone segment to have more phone price ranges. In addition, powering the phone is a battery with a capacity of 4,065mAh with 20W VOOC 3.0 fast charging support. However, the device is said to not support the wireless charging solution. Now, the launch date for the handset is confirmed for 10 April in the Chinese market.

Besides, Shen Yiren, Oppo’s Vice President, revealed that the Reno smartphone will have a screen-to-body ratio of 93.1%. In addition, he stated that the handset will feature nearly bezel-less display design like the Oppo Find X.

The phone’s top bezel and side bezels will be 1.8mm, and 1.63mm thin, respectively. And the bezel at the bottom or “chin” is expected to be 3.5mm thin. Meanwhile, the iPhone XS has a 3.98mm chin and the Oppo Find X 3.4mm.

The Oppo’s VP posted a photo of the right side of the Oppo Reno and the left side of the Oppo Find X.

Some Weibo users created a comparison in order to compare three smartphones below:

The bezels will flaunt a 6.4-inch Dynamic AMOLED display. In addition, the device will have a 16MP pop-up front-facing camera to make the display a true bezel-less one.
