Oppo introduced a compelling Reno 12 series hoping to bring in an appetizing AI jam-packed array of devices.

Liam Faurie, head of go-to-market and operations at Oppo says Oppo was excited to bring forward devices packed with some exciting AI muscle.

The operations manager said there were a couple of exciting news expected in the third quarter as Oppo planned to unpack news that would excite consumers.

It was Oppo’s training manager Bradley Young, who took the audience through some of the latest Reno 12 Pro’s exciting new features.

Features like the AI eraser, AI smart image matting, and splash touch display including AI summarizer were some of the features Young introduced.

AI eraser allows users be able to edit images especially when remedying small errors on those important memories.

Features such as AI smart image matting including the latest splash touch display make the Reno 12 Pro an interesting newcomer as the features allow users to be able to use this latest introduction even with wet hands.

AI summarizer was a crowd favourite as Young showed off how a recording was transcribed into a short list of sentences in bullet form.
