The Oppo Reno8 series will use a combination of Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 and high-end Dimensity chips paired with the MariSilicon X ISP, claims Digital Chat Station.

The leakster adds more details about one particular phone in the series, PGAM10, which expand on what we’ve heard already – a 6.55” 120 Hz OLED display, a 50 MP main camera (IMX766), plus an 8 MP ultra wide an a 2 MP module along with a 32 MP selfie camera. The phone will allegedly feature an in-display fingerprint reader and a 4,500 mAh battery with 80W charging.

And it will be powered by the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 with LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage. The upcoming chipset is rumored to feature four Cortex-A710 and four A510 cores, skipping the fast-but-hot X2 core of the 8 Gen 1. It will feature a last-gen GPU, an Adreno 662 (the 8 Gen 1 uses the Adreno 730).

Which MediaTek chipset will be featured in other Oppo Reno8 models? We don’t know yet, but the Dimensity 8000/8100 is the closest to the Snapdragon. They use the older A78 and A55 cores and a new Mali-G610 GPU. The Dimensity 9000 is also an option, of course, this one has the full flagship combo of X2, A710 and A510, plus a higher end Mali-G710.

Oppo could unveil the Reno8 series next month, a year after the first Reno6 models went official. This means that the PGAM10 could become one of the first phones to feature the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1.
