OPPO Flash Charges the Future at MWC Shanghai

Flash charging technology, futuristic 5G smart home and smartphone technology are among the highlights of OPPO at MWC Shanghai 2021

Tuesday, 23 February 2021, SINGAPORE — Leading smart device company OPPO today hosted a flash charging partner conference at Mobile World Congress, Shanghai (MWCS). The event saw OPPO unveil a host of innovations in the areas of device charging, 5G connectivity and smart technology.

The conference gathered leading partners from sectors including consumer electronics and chip manufacturing, as well as experts in charging technology from CCTL (China Telecommunication Technology Labs) to discuss the future of flash charge technology.

OPPO showcased numerous examples of cutting-edge charging products feature, including the 125W flash charger, which can fully charge a 4,000mAh phone battery in just 20 minutes. This is joined by 65W AirVOOC wireless flash charge products which charges the same battery in as little as 30 minutes, as well as products from several partners who have licensed OPPO’s proprietary technologies.

OPPO’s MWCS stand features an array of innovative technologies across four zones:

1.      The Smart Home of the Future shows how OPPO’s IoT products can make our homes smarter and more connected than ever before. The unique 5G CPE, Omni, powered by Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ X55 5G Modem-RF System sits at the heart of this area, capable of turning 5G signals into stable, high speed Wi-Fi connections through two proprietary antenna systems.

2.      The O-Reserve 5G antenna system uses the Sub-6GHz 5G spectrum, automatically choosing four of its eight antennae at a time to get the best possible signal. At the same time, the O-Motion 360° technology can fully rotate its antennae, automatically ensuring the CPE is positioned for optimum 5G millimeter wave signal reception. OPPO, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., and Ericsson recently completed successful tests of 5G millimeter wave technology with the Omni, achieving downlink speeds of 4.06Gbps. Visitors to the OPPO booth at MWCS were also able to learn more about Omni’s antenna systems and other 5G technologies, and also experience Augmented Reality (AR) shopping and gaming in this area.

3.      The Futuristic Technologies area allowed MWCS guests get up close to the OPPO X 2021 concept phone, which features a screen that unrolls from 6.7 to 7.4 inches. The OPPO X 2021 concept phone also demonstrated the speed and ease of charging with OPPO’s new Wireless Air Charging technology that promises up to 7.5W of charging power. This latest innovation uses magnetic resonance to remove some of the inconvenience of other wireless charging technologies, working as soon as devices are within 10cm of the charging mat.

4.      The Reno 5 Series was also put on exhibition at the smartphone area, headlined by the Reno5 Pro+ 5G Artist Limited Edition. Designed in collaboration with graphic artist Joshua Vides, the beautiful Reno5 Pro+ 5G Artist Limited Edition changes the colour of its rear panel from silver to blue with a simple tap through its electrochromic glass.

Henry Tang, Vice President of OPPO Research Institute, was also invited to speak about 5G innovation at the 5G Innovation and Investment Summit: “At OPPO, we firmly believe that 5G will change how we all live. As coverage and capacity expand, we will see new applications flourishing in numerous areas, bringing unexpected experiences to consumers. We are already involved in the development of a global 5G standard, and will continue to explore new 5G devices and deployments, from TV to CPE to AR.”
