OPPO today launched the new Reno2 F in Sri Lanka. The Reno2 F model is one of the latest iteration of OPPO’s popular Reno series that will redraw the boundaries of users’ creativity, coming packed with photography-enhancing features. The quad-camera setup, ultra-clear night shots even under nearly-no-light condition on Ultra Dark Mode and super-stable video shooting on the go thanks to Ultra Steady Video. The quad-camera setup consist of a 48MP Ultra-clear Main Camera, 8MP Wide Angle Lens, 2MP Mono Lens, and 2MP Portrait Lens.

“Inheriting the already rich spirit of the Reno Series, this latest iteration presents our users with even more creative possibilities, empowering them to discover new perspectives” said Bob Li, CEO, OPPO Sri Lanka. “Its advanced camera technology performs superbly in a range of environments and scenarios, from vast landscapes to confined alleyways, or sun-kissed beaches to dim, moonless nights”. 

Advanced Camera Tech Unleashes User Creativity
OPPO is dedicated to pushing the boundaries of mobile photography. The Reno2 F will come equipped with four cameras that provide a full focal length imaging system; Ultra-Wide Angle lens and Ultra Night Mode. The Ultra-Wide Angle lens feature provides an impressive 119 degree perspective, bringing out even more different images and photo themes. Users can now shoot vast and boundless landscapes day or night, and even in small or confined spaces, demonstrating the handset’s exceptional performance regardless of the subject or environment.

With a 48MP primary lens equipped with Optical Image Stabilization, F1.7 aperture, and a ½-inch sensor along with Quad Bayer technology, Reno2 F can achieve better performance in low light. The Reno2 Fs’ Ultra Dark Mode covers an entire range of different night scenes via a powerful NPU, and OPPO fine-tuned algorithms. Even if light levels measure below 1 lux, it elevates your photos beyond naked eye through hardware network-optimized AI noise reduction. Meanwhile, software dynamic exposure adjustments also secure optimal picture brightness allowing you to reveal objects in the night with the use of a built-in NPU speeding up picture processing. While the naked human eye can't penetrate darkness, with Reno2 F now users can capture stunning scenes such as fireflies at night and candlelight dinners. 

But a single photo can’t tell whole story, and with social media users increasingly shooting video, OPPO is paying more attention to Videography than before. OPPO’s industry-leading Ultra Steady Video Mode technology ups the stability of videos, enabling users to capture steady videos while running, skiing, skateboarding, cycling, and more. It’s achieved through an IMU measuring device with a high sampling rate and a hull sensor, equipped with Electronic Image Stabilization and Optical Image Stabilization. These compensate users’ shaky shots more accurately, and together with a 60fps frame rate, enhance image stabilization, fluency, and overall image quality. 

User-centric design combines practicality with style
The Reno2 F is also equipped with a 6.5” AMOLED Panoramic screen, 2340x1080 resolution, and a screen-to-body ration of 91.1%, made from toughened 5th Generation Corning® Gorilla® Glass. The Sunlight AMOLED Screen offers sufficient brightness even in bright outdoor environments while extending screen service life by 50% and reducing power consumption by 6%. The Reno2 sports a 16MP pop-up front camera featuring an Atmosphere Light.

Reno2 F feature seamless, one-piece curved bodies, and with the use of three-layer stripping technology, OPPO has achieved a glossier, multi-toned look that shows off different color shades from different angles. This creation of a varying and dynamic aesthetics contrasts the Reno series, which conveyed a more reserved, static design. They feature rear cameras that remain hidden under the back cover, which itself is made from durable 5th Generation Corning® Gorilla® Glass. 

Cutting-edge hardware and software that delivers superb performance
The Reno2 F is powered by ColorOS 6.1, running on the latest version of Android Pie 9.0, featuring a smoother and more enjoyable user experience. It provides a brand-new visual experience, including wallpaper designs that better match the phone’s exterior design. Light, elegant, and borderless gradient colors are used to replace the previously used large-area color blocks, and new gestures to manage navigation make the phone more comfortable to operate with a single hand. 

This Reno2 F offers a complete gaming experience, with optimized features like Touch Boost 2.0, Frame Boost 2.0 and Game Space. Touch Boost 2.0 helps users avoid common pitfalls of running hardcore titles while Frame Boost 2.0 analyses the status of mobile performance so that frame rate and stability will be adjusted to prioritize a first-class gaming experience. Frame Boost 2.0 will also allocate resources to avoid the consumption of too much power and the heating of the phone. What’s more, Game Space collectively manages game apps to give users a distraction-free and more immersive gaming experience. Overall, the Reno2 F has five-star gaming performance certification from TUV Rheinland, which tests the overall gaming performance of the phone from the screen, battery life, performance, and signal strength.

Also, OPPO has been concentrating on video content to deliver a more immersive experience together with the Reno2 F’s high quality screen, Dolby Atmos®, and Hi-Res Audio.
The OPPO Reno2 F features fast and safe VOOC Flash Charge 3.0 technology. This uses a new VFC algorithm, significantly shortening the final 10% of charging time by doubling the trickle charging speed. VOOC Flash Charge 3.0 combines with the Reno2 series’ 4,000mAh (Typ) battery to provide users with a much longer-lasting battery.

Priced at LKR 74,990, OPPO Reno2 F sporting ‘Twilight Mist’ finishes which take influence from the mesmerizing beauty of nature will be available in two colour themes ‘Sky White’ & ‘Lake Green’. Furthermore, the 3GB RAM version of the OPPO A5 2020 which was recently launched has been released to the market and will also be available for sale at Rs.34,990.
