The Oppo Reno 16 series appears to be inching closer to its launch. In recent weeks, the Indian and global variant standard Reno 16 has been sighted on a benchmarking site, hinting towards its debut in the aforementioned regions. Now, the purported global version of the Reno 16 Pro has appeared on the benchmarking platform as well. The listing reveals key details about the handset, including its chipset, RAM configuration, and operating system.
An unannounced Oppo smartphone carrying the model number CPH2863 has been spotted on Geekbench. While the listing does not reveal the purported handset's moniker, previous certification listings have linked this model number to the global version of the Oppo Reno 16 Pro.
According to the benchmarking platform, the handset is powered by MediaTek's MT6899 chipset. It has an octa-core chipset with an ARMv8 architecture and a base operating frequency of 2.20GHz. The SoC's architecture allegedly comprises one core clocked at 3.40GHz, three cores clocked at 3.20GHz, and four cores operating at the base 2.20GHz frequency.
However, reports suggest it could be the Dimensity 8550 instead, which has a similar architecture. The Chinese variant of the Reno 16 Pro, launched earlier this year, is also powered by the same mobile processor.
The global variant of the Oppo Reno 16 Pro could be paired with approximately 11.18GB of RAM, which could then be marketed as 12GB of memory, along with a Mali-G720 MC8 GPU. The handset is listed as running Android 16 and is likely to ship with ColorOS 16 on top.
Benchmark scores for the Oppo handset give us an idea of what to expect in terms of performance. In the Geekbench 6.7.1 for Android AArch64 benchmarking test, it registered scores of 1,575 (single-core) and 5,889 (multi-core) points, respectively. For comparison, the standard Reno 16 with the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 SoC was listed on the benchmarking platform with 1,240 (single-core) and 3,994 (multi-core) points.
According to previous reports, the Oppo Reno 16 series could launch in India on July 2. We can expect more details to surface closer to the launch of the handsets.
