Oppo Reno 7 now comes in a special colour edition to mark the Chinese New Year draped in Velvet Red colour, which symbolises the festivities in China. The new colour takes a detour from the regular Reno 7 variants because it lacks the gradient finish that has come to be synonymous with Reno phones. The new Reno 7 variant also has a special logo embossed on the back.
The new Oppo Reno 7 5G New Year Edition is meant for the Chinese market, which is also the only market where the new Reno series is available. Oppo has not said anything about when it is planning to bring the Reno 7 phones to markets outside, such as India. However, a recent report hinted that the Oppo Reno 7 series may debut in India sometime between January and March and that it may only have two smartphones in it, instead of three in China. That also means that the Oppo Reno 7 5G New Year Edition is unlikely to come to India.
The Red Velvet colour on the Reno 7 5G New Year Edition looks gorgeous and the Tiger logo at the back represents the Year of the Tiger in China.
Much like the price, the specifications of the Oppo Reno 7 5G New Year Edition are the same as the vanilla variant. The phone comes with a 6.43-inch Full-HD+ AMOLED display with up to a 90Hz refresh rate, a maximum touch sampling rate of 180Hz, and a screen-to-body ratio of 91.7 per cent. There is Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection on top, as well. It uses a 4500mAh battery with 60W fast charging. The Reno 7 5G New Year Edition runs Android 11-based ColorOS 12 and uses a Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G processor.
