Oppo Reno 8 is only a few months away! If the latest leak is to be taken seriously, the Reno 8 could be in India by the end of June 2022. The successor to the Reno 7 and Reno 7 Pro smartphones will be at our doorstep in just two months' time, which is on par with the Reno launch cycle in India. Along with the Reno 8, Oppo is also expected to launch a couple of IoT products, including the much-hyped Oppo Pad tablet that has been the center of attention in global markets.

The leak, coming from tipster Mukul Sharma, suggests that the Reno 8 will launch in India by the end of June 2022. Along with the Reno 8, Oppo will be launching IoT devices, which could also include the Oppo Pad tablet. Note that this is unconfirmed information and hence, we suggest you take this with a pinch of salt. Oppo India is yet to announce anything on this front.

Oppo Reno 8 launching in India

Prior to this, there have been leaks related to the Oppo Reno 8, especially concerning its design. The Reno 8 leaked renders showcased a design that resembles the OnePlus 10 Pro largely. However, OnePlus spokesperson have confirmed that the render is fake and the Oppo Reno 8 does not look like its flagship.

Rumours surrounding the Reno 8 have talked about its expected specifications. The biggest highlight here could be a new Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 chip, which is said to offer the same levels of performance as the Snapdragon 888 and could compete with the MediaTek Dimensity 8100 chip. The phone could also be getting LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage. A 45000mAh battery could run the show and it will be backed by a 80W charging solution, claim the leaks.

The Reno 8 will also carry a 6.5-inch AMOLED display with FHD+ resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. The display will hold a 32MP selfie camera, which will use the Sony IMX709 image sensor. The rear cameras will hold a 50MP Sony IMX766 sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide camera, and a 2MP camera. It seems the Reno 8 won't see major camera upgrades.

The Oppo Pad, on the other hand, will mark Oppo's entry into the tablet space. The device could compete with the recently launched Xiaomi Pad 5 but with a superior Snapdragon 870 chip at the helm. This tablet also has a 11-inch LCD display with a 120Hz refresh rate. It remains to be seen how Oppo goes about pricing its tablet in India.
