Announcement. OPPO Reno7 4G - and why were they greedy with the chipset?

The Reno7 series is replenished. In Indonesia, a device named OPPO Reno7 4G (CPH2363) is presented. Both in appearance and in many characteristics, he is similar to the older brothers in the series.
(Reno7 5G China, Reno7 5G Global, Reno7 Z 5G). But, as you might guess, it lacks support for 5G networks. Yes, and looser. But curious.

I will assign the chipset to the role of the weak link.Qualcomm Snapdragon 680 has never reached three hundred thousand points in AnTuTu. Still not bad, but still, against the background of the rest of the characteristics of the smartphone, this chip looks dull.

But there is a lot of memory. 8 GB of operational and as much as 256 GB of permanent. And there is even support for memory cards.

AMOLED screen with slightly increased refresh rate up to 90 Hz. Diagonal 6.43″ (100 cm²), high resolution 1080×2400 (409 ppi).

The battery is about the same as everyone else, 4500 mAh. Charging speed - 33 W.

Cameras. Oddly enough, the most interesting here is the frontal. 32 MP based on Sony IMX709 sensor. They say that excellent cameras are obtained from this sensor. It is frontal, and not others.

The rear trio is quite modest, 64 + 2 + 2 MP -main camera, macro and depth sensor. Macro, by the way, some unusual. They promise 30X magnification. And f / 3.3 aperture is not often seen. But there is no autofocus, the resolution is modest. It is hardly worth dreaming too much.

The fingerprint scanner is built into the screen. NFC module is available.

Colors. Well, black is boring. But the red-haired leather one is just fire. I love these color schemes!

And about the price. 5,199,000 Indonesian rupiah (₽34,700, $402). That's how good a smartphone is. But that kind of money for a Snapdragon 680? Kind of too much.
