According to the company, the Oppo Reno 8 Pro packs the 5nm MediaTek Dimensity 8100-MAX that delivers a 25 per cent improvement in CPU power efficiency when compared to 6nm-class Dimensity chips.  This octa-core SoC comprises four 2.85GHz Arm Cortex-A78 super cores along with the powerful Arm Mali-G610 MC6 graphics core for an extra 20 per cent speed boost over the Dimensity 8000, the brand further added.

The Oppo Reno 8 houses the latest MediaTek Dimensity 1300 SoC over the MediaTek Dimesity 900 in the Reno 7. The new ‘6nm’ octa-core CPU boasts a 3GHz Arm Cortex-A78 ‘ultra-core’ that kicks in to provide peak responsiveness in apps and games when it is needed the most, the brand said in a statement. 

 In addition, it comprises three premium Cortex-A78 cores, four Cortex-A55 efficiency cores, as well as the same HyperEngine 5.0 gaming technologies that are found on the Dimensity 8100-MAX. With the Dimensity 1300, AI tasks are boosted by up to 10 per cent as displayed in AI benchmarking results, it further added.

 The SoC promises photography enthusiasts excellent low-light performance and fast captures, ideal for shooting pictures in all conditions. Its unique AI-camera capabilities include AI noise reduction (AI-NR) in panoramic captures at night and with HDR. 4K HDR videos are captured with a 40 per cent greater dynamic range when compared to standard HDR, the company claims. 

 Both Reno 8 Pro and the Reno 8 are powered by a 4500mAh battery. Oppo's 80W SUPERVOOC Flash Charge technology—tested and certified by TÜV Rheinland as a safe and quick charging system—allows for a 50 per cent recharge with just 11 minutes recharge; a five-minute recharge is enough for two hours of mobile gaming. 

 Further, the Reno 8 series comes with OPPO’s exclusive Battery Health Engine (BHE) technology, which is the outcome of a three-year R&D into lithium-ion batteries and has resulted in 20+ pending patents.
