Protect yourself from Coronavirus (COVID-19)

The best way to prevent the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic illness is by avoiding your exposure to the virus. Clean your hands often, use soap and water for at least 20 seconds or a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol to clean your hands more frequently.
Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands or after being in the public.
Avoid close contact with people who are sick. Maintain a safe distance between yourself and other people if COVID-19 is spreading in your community.
Stay home if you’re sick and take help from local health authorities and medical professionals.
Make sure to cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or use the inside of your elbow when you cough or sneeze. Properly dispose the used tissues in the trash, and immediately clean your hands with soap and water or a hand sanitizer.
Wear a face mask if you are sick or if you are around other people (e.g., sharing a room or vehicle) and before you enter a healthcare provider’s office. Do not wear a face mask unless you are caring for someone who is sick.

We have already seen plenty of leaked reports on Oppo's upcoming Reno 3 series of smartphones, that is all set to make it's formal debut on December 26 in Hangzhou city of China. Lately we have seen the Reno 3 Pro and the vanilla Reno 3 model both show up on TENAA's certification database, spilling out all the information we are interested in. Today we have a couple of real life high definition pictures surface from the Chinese social media platform, where we see the next generation Reno 3 being handheld, again giving us a look at it's internal specs and the overall design.

New leaked poster from Oppo shows us the upcoming Reno 3, A91 and A8


It looks like we have some new and interesting information regarding the upcoming smartphones from the Chinese consumer electronics and mobile communications company, Oppo. A post surfaced on the popular social media platform from China yesterday, showed us some high definition renders of their upcoming Reno 3 Pro and vanilla Reno 3 handsets, both confirmed to support dual-mode SA/NSA frequency bands of 5G networks, scheduled to arrive on December 26. But alongside the previously seen smartphones from Oppo's Reno 3 series, we surprisingly spot two new handsets from the Chinese phone maker, that appeared on the poster that came our way from the Weibo user. When taking a closer look at the leaked fly-poster, we see the brand new and alleged Oppo A91 and A8 smartphones from it's front and back revealing their design and also giving us bits of internal details for the first time ever.

So the new purported Oppo A91 and A8 looks to feature water-drop style drop display on the front, with quad camera and triple camera arrangement on the back, respectively, coming in three color options. The A91 is said to bring a 48MP main shooter in charge of the quad camera setup and a battery with integration of VOOC 3.0 fast charging technology. Under the hood is an 8GB RAM coupled with 128GB of memory. The listing also translates something related to on-screen fingerprint reader 3.0 (which we are not sure about).

Oppo Reno 3 gets TENAA certification, gives us a look and specification details


We have already seen Oppo's Vice President and President of Global Marketing, Brian Shen share an image with us teasing the launch their latest smartphone Oppo Reno 3 Pro 5G. He had also let us know that the new make from the Chinese will come featuring a glass body construction with just a thickness 7.7mm when measured excluding the camera bump, which should be the thinnest dual-mode 5G handset from the segment.

And while we are still yet to confirm the alleged punch hole style camera on the upper left corner aside the time display for the Reno 3 Pro 5G, there seems to another variant of the smartphone making to the TENAA certification listing, which is now purportedly claimed to be the standard model, Oppo Reno 3. The phone that appeared on TENAA's listing lately was carrying a model number that read PCPM00. From the design aspect the smartphone here looks be a lot different from what we have seen or teased for the Oppo Reno 3 Pro by the Brian Shen this past Thursday, as these newly surfaced images from TENAA's website reveals how the standard Reno 3 will look like when launched officially by the manufacturer. At this moment we can't confirm whether the smartphone will carry a water drop style notch display or a single punch hole style camera on the top center of the smartphone. From it's back the device seems to carry a quad camera setup placed vertically towards the left top, joined by a LED flash to it's side.

The power button placement looks to be on the right side of the smartphone with volume rockers to the left. The phone looks to arrive in White and Blue (as seen above) colors with a dimension of 160.2 x 73.3 x 7.9mm, and weighing 172 grams in mass. The Oppo Reno 3 will also feature a 6.4" Full High Definition Plus AMOLED panel of 2400 x 1080 resolution, with a fingerprint reader embedded to the front display of the smartphone. There will an Octa-Core processor according to the reports clocked at 2.1GHz and 8 gigabytes of RAM and 128GB of storage, that can be further expanded via a microSD card slot to up to 256GB. In for camera you can expect a 48MP primary camera bundled by an 8MP sensor and couple of 2MP sensors from the back and on the front houses a 16MP secondary front facer. Powering everything will be a 3935mAh powered battery and runs Android version 9, but don't hope to see the Reno 3 support 5G bands like it's Pro sibling.

Oppo Reno 3 expected to pack a punch hole camera design


Oppo Reno 3 is the rumored new Android smartphone up from the Chinese that is expected to make it's launch officially next month, and while we wait for the handset to get introduced formally by Oppo, a screenshot seem to have made rounds on Weibo in the company's home country that has caught everyone's eyes lately. During the launch of ColorOS 7, we've heard from the manufacturer that their new device will come featuring the dual-mode 5G support. And now with the help of this newly shared screenshot we assume that the upcoming Reno 3 will have a punch hole camera design instead of their traditional pop-up selfie cameras we have seen on it's predecessors.

From the screenshot attached below you can spot a small space in the upper left corner aside the time display. This empty space on the side could hint the phone to carry a punch hole camera arrangement. We can't assure you about the authenticity of the screenshot here as we will have to wait for more news on the device itself. Apart from the camera unit we also see the presence of 5G on the phone with modes to actually turn on and turn off the faster network connection in the screenshot. There are also other reports suggesting that the phone is supposedly coming with a 6.5" FHD+ AMOLED display at 90Hz refresh rate also traiting a Qualcomm Snapdragon 735 chipset and 8GB of RAM. For storage you can expect 128GB or 256GB of space and a 4500mAH powered battery capable of 30W fast charging. Rumors also suggest a quad camera setup on the back with 60MP primary lens and a 32MP alleged punch hole style front facing secondary camera.
