OPPO launched the Reno12 series smartphones in China last month and recently confirmed that the series will soon have a global release. Recently, the global variant of the Reno 12 Pro appeared in a Geekbench listing under the model number OPPO CPH2629.
This listing reveals that the phone will run on the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 SoC, which was introduced just last week, making it one of the pioneering smartphones to feature this chipset.
The Dimensity 7300 SoC boasts 4X Arm Cortex-A78 cores clocked at up to 2.5GHz, paired with 4X Arm Cortex-A55 cores, and utilizes a 4nm process, promising a significant 25% reduction in power consumption compared to the 6nm Dimensity 7050. According to MediaTek, the Arm Mali-G615 GPU in this chipset promises 20% faster FPS and 20% improved energy efficiency compared to its competitors.
Rumors suggest that both the Reno12 and Reno12 Pro will utilize the same Dimensity 7300 chip. It's worth noting that the OPPO Reno11 is powered by the Dimensity 7050 SoC, indicating a considerable upgrade. However, if the Reno11 Pro's Dimensity 8200 SoC is downgraded to the Dimensity 7300, as speculated, it would mark a step back in performance.
The Geekbench listing also discloses that the phone will feature 12GB of RAM and run on Android 14. According to rumors, the OPPO Reno12 is expected to sport a 50MP main camera, 8MP ultra-wide, and a 2MP camera, while details about the Reno12 Pro's camera setup remain undisclosed.
Considering these details, it appears there might be a downgrade in camera specifications, as the Reno11 series features a 32MP telephoto camera, and the Reno11 Pro utilizes a larger Sony IMX890 sensor.
The OPPO Reno 12 Pro has already obtained certifications from NBTC, Indonesia Telecom, and India’s BIS, indicating an imminent launch, possibly as early as this June.
