Ethan Xue, President of OPPO Middle East and Africa (MEA), said: "OPPO believes in the power of youth and the spirit of creation – which, when combined, become an unstopped force of innovation. This is something that we aim to encourage through our latest OPPO Reno smartphone series, which provides young people wit the means to experience their world in a new light, through groundbreaking photography capabilities. The OPPO Week tour is an opportunity for us to inspire students, to teach them how to get the most out of their mobile photography, and to encourage them to look at the world through a new lens – through the Reno smartphone series."


When OPPO launched its premium Reno2 series in Q4 2019, it encouraged users to see the world from completely new perspectives. Designed to further your vision, the OPPO Reno series uses innovative technology to elevate photography and mobile entertainment to all-new heights.

The Reno2 series' unique multi-perspective capabilities are enabled by its quad-camera setup, which includes super-stable video shooting on the go thanks to Ultra Steady Video feature, ultra-clear night shots even under a nearly-no-light condition in Ultra Dark Mode and 5x Hybrid Zoom allowing users to get much closer to a subject. The Reno2 series comes with a shark fin pop-up camera, which supports ultra-clear backlit shots and all-new AI Beauty Mode to deliver professional quality photos.
