OPPO claims the panel covers 100% of the DCI-P3 color space and comes with HDR10+ support as well. On the back of the phone is a quad-camera setup comprising a 48MP main sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide angle lens, 13MP telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom, and a 2MP monochrome sensor.

OPPO is offering the Reno 3 Pro in four color options: White, Starry Night Blue, Sunrise, and Black. The phone is slated to go on sale in China starting January 10. While the base version with 8GB RAM and 128GB storage will carry a price tag of 3,999 yuan ($571), the 12GB/256GB version will be available for 4,499 yuan ($643).
