New Delhi: Handset maker Oppo has introduced a new colourway for the Reno 7 and it is called the Oppo Reno 7 New Year Edition that comes in a Red Velvet colour variant with a tiger logo at the rear that is placed there perhaps because next year will be the year of the tiger according to Chinese zodiac. Oppo is known to launch limited edition devices and special edition smartphones and it has done the same with the Reno 7 that was originally unveiled in the company's home turf China.
It has been a few weeks since the device was launched in China, but it is yet to be launched in other markets.The Reno 7 New Year Edition phone gets the same set of internals as the regular Reno 7 except for the new Red Velvet coloured paint job and a tiger logo that sits next to Oppo's logo at the back of the device.
Other than a Red Velvet colour, the Oppo Reno 7 New Year Edition brings the Qualcomm Snapdragon 778 chipset, Android 11-based ColorOS 12 and 6.43-inch FullHD+ 90Hz AMOLED screen, just like what we've seen in the regular Oppo Reno 7.
Other specs of the Oppo Reno 7 New Year Edition includes 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB of internal storage. The screen offers a 90 Hz refresh rate.
In terms of camera specs, the Oppo Reno 7 has a quad-camera setup with a 64MP primary camera, an 8MP ultrawide camera and a 2MP macro units. The Oppo Reno 7 New Year Edition is fitted with a 4,500 mAh battery with support for 60W fast-charging and also an in-display fingerprint scanner for biometric authentication.
The Oppo Reno 7 New Year Red Velvet variant will be up for pre-order starting today (December 27). While it is not much likely that Oppo will bring the Red Velvet variant to international markets, including India, we can still expect it to be available in some regions next year.
