OPPO Reno10 unleashes pro portraits
By Shawn Chung - Singapore
After its successful domestic launch in China back in May, OPPO has finally brought the Reno10 series to global consumers, simultaneously launching this family in India, Malaysia and Singapore, amongst other markets.
The all-new Reno10 Pro+ 5G, Reno10 Pro 5G, and Reno10 5G features an Ultra-Clear Portrait Camera System; comprising a Telephoto Portrait Camera with large sensor, an Ultra-Clear Main Camera, an Ultra-Clear Selfie Camera, and a high-quality 112° 8MP Ultra-Wide Camera - enabling the Reno 10 to produce OPPO’s most powerful portrait expert yet. More notably, the newest series offers pro-level portrait imaging experiences that are not just Reno’s first, but also the industry’s first, housed within the signature slim, lightweight, and trendy design of the OPPO Reno series.
The Reno10 series also delivers unrivaled all-round performance for a better user experience with up to 100W SUPERVOOC flash charging, a powerful SoC, an Ultra Conductive Cooling System, the Dynamic Computing Engine, ColorOS 13, and a fast charging, safe and long-lasting battery supported by OPPO’s Battery Health Engine and SUPERVOOC S power management chip.
Ultra-Clear Portrait Camera System
The Reno10 Pro+ 5G enables users to capture portraits like a pro, thanks to its 64MP telephoto portrait camera that provides a 71 mm equivalent focal length, which combined with its large f/2.5 aperture, 25cm minimum focus distance, large 1/2″ camera sensor (64MP is also the highest megapixels on an optical zoom enabled smartphone camera on the market). This portrait camera is equipped with a cutting-edge prime floating OIS for enhanced image stabilization, and when used in conjunction with the 3x optical zoom and OPPO’s own in-sensor zoom technology, enables ultra-clear 6-times zoom for clear close-ups.
Both the Reno10 Pro 5G and Reno10 5G feature a 32MP telephoto portrait camera powered by an IMX709 RGBW sensor. With its all-new 4-in-1 RGBW pixel array co-designed by OPPO and Sony, the IMX709 has additional white pixels that are more sensitive to light intensity than RGB pixels, improving light capture by 60% and signal-to-noise by 35% compared with a standard RGGB sensor. With its 2-times optical zoom, the telephoto portrait camera on Reno10 Pro 5G and Reno10 5G delivers flawless high-quality portrait images.
Besides the 64MP telephoto camera, the Reno10 Pro+ 5G’s rear camera system also includes a 50MP Ultra-Clear Main Camera with OIS and a Sony IMX890 sensor, and a 112° 8MP Ultra-Wide-Angle Camera with a Sony IMX355 sensor. Backed by this incredible three-camera lineup, Reno10 Pro+ 5G has imaging features that includes Pro-Portrait Mode, Pro-Portrait Video, and 4K Ultra Night Video/4K Ultra HDR Video to deliver pro-level shots.
OPPO’s Professional Portrait Image Processing
On the Reno10 Pro+ 5G, OPPO has also expanded the power of its new image processing architecture, as a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 mobile platform SoC enables the full capabilities of OPPO’s new image processing architecture overcomes traditional limitations in computing power to unleash the full strength of the phone’s ISP and GPU in order to maximize the performance of the sensors on all three of the rear cameras for a new stage in image clarity, light, shadow, and color.
With RAW Domain Multi-frame Synthesis, each frame captured by Reno10 Pro+ 5G is taken from the source at the image sensor and enhanced through advanced image processing algorithms including AI denoising, AI demosaicing, and deep pixel fusion — all performed in the RAW domain. This delivers improvements in image clarity and faithfully restores the relationship between light and shadow to create true-to-life images, fast and accurately.
Starting with the Reno10 series, OPPO is also launching the new Portrait Expert Project aimed at catering to different aesthetic and visual preferences, with four professional portrait photographers from different countries to join the Portrait Expert Group, utilizing their expertise and multi-cultural perspectives to continuously optimize the technologies of OPPO’s Portrait Expert Engine. Recommendations from photographers worldwide have been used to modify functions including subject recognition and character-scene separation, facial feature and skin tone protection, face clarity optimisation and expert-level tuning of light and shadow, as well as background optimisation on the Reno10 series. Future updates will see further modifications for greater improvements in portrait-taking.
Through the Portrait Expert Project and Portrait Expert Engine, OPPO will continue to prioritize user benefits and bring more breathtaking camera features that leverage on the expertise of OPPO’s professional internal team and global photographers’ eye, made even better with a touch of local styles and tastes.
Better AMOLED with speedier charging
The Reno10 series also introduces a series of upgrades to the line’s AMOLED displays. All three devices feature a large display with support for up to 1 billion colors and a 120Hz refresh rate. The Reno10 Pro+ 5G has a 6.74-inch 1.5K Ultra-Clear Borderless Display capable of reaching 1100 nits brightness coupled with industry leading ProXDR Smart Display Control. ProXDR uses a high-precision image recognition algorithm to automatically detect light source information stored in RAW image data. Using this data, Reno10 Pro+ 5G can locally adjust screen brightness in these corresponding areas of the image to provide up to an 8-times improvement in dynamic range, enabling HDR images to be reproduced with the most accurate depiction of light and shadow on a smartphone display.
With its line-up of powerful hardware, the Reno10 series delivers pro-level charging performance across the board. Through OPPO’s 100W SUPERVOOC Flash Charge technology1, the large 4,700mAh battery of Reno10 Pro+ 5G can charge to 50% in 9 minutes and 30 seconds, and 100% charged in 27 minutes. On top of this, the inclusion of OPPO’s exclusive Battery Health Engine helps to keep the battery in good condition for as many as 1,600 charge and discharge cycles theoretically — while OPPO’s SUPERVOOC S Power Management Chip has been brought to the Reno series for the first time to provide improved battery efficiency.
In addition to its speed, efficiency, and longevity, the Reno10 Pro+ 5G also guarantees safer and more reliable charging performance, as authorized by the new TÜV Rheinland Safe Fast-Charge System Certification.
High performance, yet lightweight and stylish
The pro-level portrait imaging experience is brought to the Reno10 series without compromising on the lightweight and stylish design.

The Reno10 series also introduces a new premium design around the camera module. The lens module decoration is divided into two parts using an advanced splicing process to create a premium two-tone design that adds to the high-tech and pro-aesthetic appearance of the phones. Both Reno10 Pro+ 5G and Reno10 Pro 5G feature an innovative Laser-Centric Camera Matrix that incorporates a radial laser beam-like texture centered around the main camera to manipulate light and shadow in a way that symbolizes the powerful camera capabilities that lie beneath.
