Launch Date
According to a report by TheTechOutlook, the OPPO Reno 12 series is scheduled to launch in India on July 12th. While OPPO has officially teased the launch of the Reno 12 series, they have yet to confirm this date. However, given the proximity of the leak, many believe it is credible.
Storage Variants
The report also detailed the storage configurations for the impending release. The OPPO Reno 12 5G will be available in a single configuration: 8GB RAM + 256GB storage. Meanwhile, the Reno 12 Pro 5G will offer more variety with 12GB RAM + 256GB storage and 12GB RAM + 512GB storage options.
This selective offering indicates OPPO’s strategy to cater to different user needs, though it is worth noting that higher RAM variants like 16GB RAM and 12GB RAM for the base model are not part of the initial lineup.
