OPPO today launched its much anticipated Reno Ace smartphone in China, the latest addition to the company’s flagship under the “Reno” brand. Its front design is a replica of the Reno Z, although the bezels are slightly thicker. Also, the phone used a waterdrop notch to accommodate the front camera just as seen on Reno Z and not a special motorized mechanism.
The Reno Ace has a 6.5-inch FHD+ AMOLED display that is HDR10 certified with 90Hz refresh rate, and it boasts of 91.7% screen-to-body ratio. It is powered by a Snapdragon 855 Plus chipset, with Game Boost 2.0 software enhancements put in place to make sure users get more from the processor when playing games. Moreover, OPPO revealed that it integrate a composite carbon fiber in between the vapor chamber and the chipset to effectively lower the temperature to prevent throttling during maximum workload.
