OPPO Reno, Reno 10x Zoom with pop-up wedge camera announced

OPPO recently announced the OPPO Reno and their newest flagship, the OPPO Reno 10x Zoom, in Beijing, China.

OPPO once again hits for innovation as the two new phones have somewhat of a different, if not weird, feature — a pop-up wedge selfie camera.

The OPPO Reno 10x Zoom edition will be this year’s flagship. It features a 13MP periscope camera with up to 10x zoom. The rest of its cameras include a 48MP main shooter with an f/1.7 lens and an 8MP wide-angle with f/2.2 lens.

The Reno 10x Zoom main feature is its pop-up wedge camera module that houses a 16MP f/2.0 selfie shooter with a wide angle view. This new “innovation” is a different take on pop-up cameras and will surely be a “like it or hate it” feature.
