Oppo Reno 5 series may launch on December 10, the company has allegedly teased on Chinese microblogging website Weibo. The series is expected to include Oppo Reno 5, Oppo Reno 5 Pro, and Oppo Reno 5 Pro Plus. However, the company has not officially confirmed the names of the phones. Additionally, a tipster shared an image showing the front of the three rumoured phones, while another tipster shared another image of the back panel of Oppo Reno 5, showing a quad rear camera setup.

On the Weibo post shared by Oppo, the company states that the Oppo “Star Diamond Rejuvenation series” will debut on December 10. While it does not explicitly mention the Reno 5 series, the rumour mill suggests that Oppo may announce the purported smartphones on the date. There is a short clip with the post as well that also does not confirm if the company is referring to the Oppo Reno 5 series.

Known tipster Digital Chat Station (translated) shared an image on Weibo, showing the three rumoured Oppo Reno 5 phones with their front panels. Two of the phones have curved displays while the third has a flat display. Presumably, the Pro and Pro Plus models will come with a curved display while the vanilla Oppo Reno 5 will come with a flat display. All three phones have a hole-punch cutout for the selfie camera, located at the top-left side of screen. Oppo Reno 5 seems to have a relatively thicker chin as well.

Another tipster with username Sanyi Life (translated) shared an image of the back of Oppo Reno 5 on Weibo, along with a couple of specifications. The phone can be seen with a quad rear camera setup with three sensors aligned vertically. The phone features Oppo branding as well as ‘Reno Glow' branding on the back panel. The tipster adds that the phone will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 765 5G processor and support a maximum of 65W fast charging.

Last week, a tipster tweeted the alleged specifications and pricing for the three Oppo Reno 5 series phones. Oppo Reno 5 could be priced at CNY 2,999 (roughly Rs. 33,700), Oppo Reno 5 Pro could be priced at CNY 3,799 (roughly Rs. 42,700), and Oppo Reno 5 Pro Plus could cost CNY 4,499 (roughly Rs. 50,600).
