Priced at $999 including GST with an Oppo Watch Free thrown in, the Reno8 5G features a 32 megapixel Sony IMX709 sensor, with red, green, blue and white pixels for the selfie camera; the rear imager uses a Sony 1/1.56" IMX766 sensor, and has 50 Mpixel resolution and 1 um photo diodes.
The rear camera has an f/1.8 aperature lens, with the selfie camera using an f/2.4 part; the Reno 8 5G also has Oppo's 2 Mpixel macro camera.
