Oppo Reno 8 Pro With MariSilicon X Chip Tipped to Launch in India by Mid-July

Oppo launched the Oppo Reno 8 series in China earlier this year in May. This lineup includes the vanilla Reno 8, Reno 8 Pro, and Reno 8 Pro+ smartphones. Recent rumours have suggested that the Reno 8 Pro+ will not be making its way to India. Instead, it is expected that the Reno 8 Pro would carry the specifications of the Reno 8 Pro+. Similarly, the Reno 8 might be a reskinned Reno 8 Pro that was launched in China. Now, a notable tipster has hinted that the Reno 8 series' India arrival could be announced by Oppo by mid-July.

As per a tweet by tipster Yogesh Brar (@heyitsyogesh), Oppo could announce the launch of the Reno 8 Pro in India in mid-July. This handset is expected to be accompanied by the regular Reno 8. The Reno 8 Pro was previously expected to launch in India by mid-June with 8GB RAM + 256GB storage and 12GB RAM + 256GB storage variants. The top-end 12GB RAM model was said to be priced at Rs.40,000. It was said to offer Glazed Black, Glazed Green, and Glazed White colour options. The Reno 8 Pro might still offer similar options when it eventually launches in the country.

The Oppo Reno 8 Pro that might launch in India is said to boast the specifications of the Reno 8 Pro+ that launched in China recently.
