OPPO has announced its plans to launch the Reno 12 series for the Kenyan market on August 22nd 2024 in Nairobi. Like its previous iterations, the Reno 12 will contain two variants namely the Oppo Reno 12 5G and Oppo Reno 12 F 5G.
Although the retail prices for the smartphones haven’t been confirmed, we can assume that they will be in the midrange segment, based on the specs and the prices for the same phones internationally.
“This is an exciting time for the OPPO brand as we launch the Reno12 series in the Kenyan market. This launch marks a pivotal moment for OPPO as we continue to push new boundaries with regard to technology. We have partnered with GenAI industry leaders to enable us to democratise AI. Our vision is to empower mobile phone users across OPPO’s value chain to experience the power of AI and the Reno12 series is one significant step towards this vision” said Fredrique Achieng, PR manager, OPPO Kenya.
