OPPO launches F21 Pro in India, similar to Reno7 Z 5G but based on Android 12

After releasing the F21 Pro in Bangladesh first, OPPO yesterday released its 5G version in India.

The Reno7 Z 5G for the Indian market

On paper, the device is similar to the PHP 19,999 OPPO Reno7 Z 5G in the Philippines.

This means that the device arrived with a flat-looking design in Cosmic Black or Rainbow Spectrum colorways, 6.43-inch 60Hz AMOLED screen with FHD+ resolution, Snapdragon 695 5G chip, 8GB RAM, up to 128GB UFS 2.2 expandable storage, and a 4,500mAh battery capacity with USB-C 33W charging.

For cameras, it is packed with a 64MP main cam + a 2MP monochrome cam + another 2MP depth camera. Sadly, it has no ultra-wide shooter.

The only difference we can see is the F21 Pro arrived with ColorOS 12.1 based on Android 12 instead of ColorOS 12 based on Android 11.
