OPPO announced a few weeks ago that it will present its new series of smartphones under the Reno brand on April 10. After taking a look at some of the smartphone’s renderings, today another one has appeared in which the smartphone pop-up camera is shown in the style of a…shark fin?
In the quest to purge the dreaded camera notch from smartphones, we’ve seen lots of strange ideas, but Oppo’s latest attempt in its leaked Reno smartphone might be one of the strangest yet: a wedge-shaped pop-up front-facing camera that gives the odd impression of a sharks fin.
I have no idea if it’s sturdier, but it certainly looks like it should be.
The design also means there’s room for an LED flash bulb next to the front-facing camera.
Beyond the video and pictures, though, there’s not much more information about the Oppo Reno specs, price, and release date have all yet to be revealed. But love it or hate it, it’s good to see that Oppo is still willing to try almost anything to kill the notch.
