Fueling technology with aesthetics, OPPO’s Newly Launched Reno6 Series Shines Brighter with Upgraded Reno Glow

Today, the smartphone industry is always one step ahead when it comes to designing the next iconic offering. OPPO, the global technology leader, believes that welldesigned technology should be seamlessly integrated into one’s life and adapted to our needs, and has been at the forefront of beautifying every series. The latest Reno6 series launch introduces unique devices in striking splashes of color which captivate users and stand out from the crowd.

OPPO has been placing great importance on artistry and design aesthetics, and is committed to creating beautiful experiences for users by collaborating with multiple designers and institutes, as well as setting up an international Design Center in London.

For OPPO, exceptional design must fulfil three criteria: first, an appealing aesthetic should attract attention with its uniqueness. Importantly, the design must not compromise functionality – user experience needs to remain comfortable across the product’s life cycle. Finally, once these two factors are met, it is essential that the smartphone delivers additional value; user interaction must inspire excitement with every use, empowering the proud owner of an OPPO through brand value.

At OPPO, innovative technology and trendy design come together to give users a fresh experience with every series. The recently launched Reno6 is no exception – and with the introduction of the latest finishing processes and technology, OPPO is taking visual appearance and user-friendliness to a whole new level.
