The announcements have been made for the Indian market as well. The rumor mill has also tipped several upcoming launches that are slated for the 2022 launch in India. Amongst the upcoming devices, the Reno7 is one of the highly anticipated smartphone lineups which is tipped to debut soon in India. We are expecting all three models namely the Reno7, Reno7 Pro, and the Reno7 SE in the country. The arrival of the vanilla variant has been confirmed via a fresh BIS (Bureau Of Indian Standards) listing.

Is Oppo Reno7 Coming To India Soon?

As we all are aware, the Oppo Reno7 series comprising the Reno7 Pro and the Reno 7 SE along with the standard model has gone official in China. The global launch has been pending for a while and also the brand is yet to announce the timeline for its launch in different markets. But if go by the current rumors, the Reno7 (vanilla model) is heading to both India as well as Singapore.

The device has cleared its certification via both BIS (Bureau Of Indian standards) and IMDA in India and Singapore respectively. This confirms the availability of the latest Oppo premium mid-range phone in these two countries soon. It is worth mentioning that tipster Mukul Sharma has been the first to spot these Reno7 listings on BIS and IMDA. The leaks took to his official Twitter handle to share the screenshots of the same.

Sadly, the certification websites haven’t stated by when the official launch will take place. Nevertheless, the handset visiting both these certification portals of different regions is a clear indication for an upcoming launch. You might soon see an official teaser by the brand shared via its social media handles.

The global launch is awaited and so are the official announcements on the same. However, the latest developments hint at the company’s plan to launch the Xiaomi 12x first in India. The exact variants as well as the expected pricing have surfaced online ahead of the launch.

Xiaomi 12 Series India Launch Imminent

The Xiaomi 12 series is heading to the Indian market soon. This information comes via 91Moboles. However, the publication hasn’t given any speculations on the exact launch date. Therefore, it would be hard to guess if the handset will be launching in January or February, or sometime later.

It also can’t be said if Xiaomi will introduce the remaining two models (vanilla Xiaomi 12 and the Xiaomi 12 Pro) alongside the Xiaomi 12x. That’s considering the new leak only hints at the upcoming launch of the Xiaomi 12x and not the vanilla and the Pro model. We might have to wait for a while to get some official confirmation by Xiaomi on the same.

Additionally, the Xiaomi 12X’s pricing has also been tipped by the publication. According to the report, the handset might debut starting at Rs. 40,000 in India. This could be the pricing of the base variant. Speaking of which, this report suggests the Xiaomi 12X will be launched in dual configurations similar to the Chinese variant in India.

Buyers will get the option to select the handset from 8GB RAM and 128GB storage configuration or 8GB RAM and 256GB storage option. The price of the latter variant could be slightly higher than Rs. 40,000. The Xiaomi 12X color options available in India would also be the same as the Chinese variant. The device will be available in three different shades including blue, gray, and purple.

The device will sport a 6.28-inch FHD+ OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and a punch-hole cutout.

For optics, it uses a 50P main camera at the back paired up with a 13MP ultra-wide-angle camera, and a 5MP telephoto sensor. The selfie snapper packed would be a 32MP lens. A 4,500 mAh battery with 67W fast charging will keep the lights on.
