Oppo's new Reno smartphone, which boasts a wedge-shaped pop-up camera, is now available for pre-order in Malaysia priced at RM1,999. The smartphone maker calls its unusual pop-up camera a Pivot-Rising Structure, which is made up of a 16-megapixel front-facing camera, soft light and back flash, capable of popping up in 0.8 seconds. Using a pop-up camera gives the 6.4in OLED display more viewing space, with a screen ratio of up to 93.1%. The Oppo Reno unlocks using a light-sensitive, under-the-screen fingerprint sensor, which Oppo claims is more accurate thanks to the sensor’s all-new lighting system and algorithm. The smartphone is available on preorder starting today until May 27 at Oppo's Concept Stores and official website, authorised dealers, and via e-commerce partners Lazada and Shopee.
