OPPO Reno8 Z 5G: Eye-catching Design and Powerful Portrait Capabilities

KUALA LUMPUR, 25^th August 2022 --- OPPO today announced the launch of Reno8 Z 5G in Malaysia, completing its Reno8 Series 5G line-up. Powered by 64MP AI Triple Camera together with several AI-enhanced imaging features such as AI Portrait Retouching and Bokeh Flare Portrait, the new Reno8 Z 5G is designed to offer users unlimited styles for their portraits. Alongside its outstanding camera capabilities, Reno8 Z 5G features a glass back cover and the Integrated OPPO Glow. With the aim to offer reliability and convenience to users, the Reno8 Z 5G comes with 8GB RAM-large memory and 128GB ROM storage space along with the optimized ColorOS 12.1.

Unlimited Portrait Styles for Every Scenario

Reno8 Z 5G comes packed with several imaging features driven by leading AI technologies to further elevate its portrait shooting experience.

- AI Portrait Retouching is optimized to intelligently retouch skin tone and makeup without any artificial or excessive brightening. This feature is updated based on OPPO’s special survey feedback from thousands of overseas users regarding their skin tone and beauty preferences. Reno8 Z 5G can now deliver natural and vivid selfies with high resolution and high saturation.

- Bokeh Flare Portrait offers quality portrait images by enhancing the brightness of the subject while automatically blurring the background and boosting the bokeh light spots.

The Reno8 Z 5G is also equipped with other impressive features like Selfie HDR¹, AI Palettes, AI Colour Portrait², Ultra-Clear 108MP Image³, Flash Snapshot and more, to increase the overall imaging quality. All these superior features are backed by a powerful 64MP AI Triple Camera, toggling between the 64MP high-resolution main camera, the 2MP depth camera for bokeh portraits, and the 2MP mono camera for dedicated details. While the 16MP front camera with pixel binning technology also improves portrait effects even in lowlight scenarios.

Exquisite Design That Stands Out

Reno8 Z 5G is the first OPPO smartphone to adopt a 0.5 mm anti-glare glass back cover with Integrated OPPO Glow. The double-layer texture and single-coating process gives the back cover a smooth matte finish with a glittery appearance, giving off an exquisite visual effect, while also being fingerprint resistant.

With its ultra-slim body that is approximately 7.66 mm in thickness and around 181 g in weight⁴, Reno8 Z 5G is available in two trendy color schemes – Dawnlight Gold and Starlight Black, both giving off a fresh and sparkling aesthetic. The Integrated OPPO Glow on the Dawnlight Gold extends the shimmering sand process of the back cover to the frame, the buttons, and the camera’s decorative base to create a more integrated visual effect.

Reno8 Z 5G is the first smartphone in the industry to adopt a spliced matte-glossy battery cover to replace the heavy camera base. The spliced layer is extended to the edge of the frame to elevate visual unity and create a refreshing yet dynamic look. Moreover, Reno8 Z 5G also features OPPO’s iconic Dual Orbit Lights, which are placed under the dual camera module to keep the phone sleek and slim. When turned on, the Dual Orbit Lights light up or blink depending on different scenarios.

On the front, a 6.4-inch AMOLED display⁵ with 60Hz refresh rate delivers smooth graphics. The display is also Netflix HD and Amazon Prime Video HD-certified to ensure high-quality video content is displayed accurately.

Reliable Performance and All-round Experience

Reno8 Z 5G is powered by the Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 695 5G Mobile Platform⁶. The standard build comes with 8GB RAM + 256GB ROM. When manually enabling the RAM Expansion feature, the 8GB RAM can borrow up to 5GB from the unused ROM for smoother performance. Furthermore, the 33W SUPERVOOC^TM is able to charge Reno8 Z 5G’s 4500mAh large battery to 100% in 63 minutes, and a 5-minute charge alone is enough for 3.4 hours long phone call or 2 hours of YouTube videos⁷.

Reno8 Z 5G is equipped with 6-Layered Multi-Cooling System to improve the overall heat dissipation. Combined with AI System Booster, which can intelligently reduce the memory usage and background power consumption when the feature is enabled, ensuring that the smartphone runs smoothly at all times. Reno8 Z 5G is also among the first smartphones to receive TÜV SÜD 36-Month Fluency Rating A, representing the highest level of long-term smoothness in user experience.

Reno8 Z 5G comes with the optimized ColorOS 12.1. With the suite of upgraded security features including 5-Grade Access Control, Photo Information Protection, and Recent Task Protection, the phone gives users more control over the day-to-day use of their private data. Omoji⁸ also gives users more creative ways to personalize their phone with 20 new accessories of collars, hats, and basic facial elements have been added on Reno8 Z 5G. Moreover, newly added features like Wallpaper-Based Theming System and Wi-Fi Nearby Share, both contribute to making ColorOS 12.1 an immersive and seamless operating system.

Boasting all of the software optimizations mentioned above, Reno8 Z 5G will bring users enhanced security, more options for customization, and overall, a smoother experience.
