    The Android Freak, 12 Jul 2021Trust me if you want to. I might have, if u gave any sources/info/leaks/rumours, etc. Sure the Pro+ would be expensive and close to 47k, but the regular Pro would in all likelihood be priced similarly to last year (~36k) since it's only a spec bump, nothing else (unless u count the "improved Reno Glow" back)
    It's simple really-
    X7 Max-27k+
    Nord2-*30k+
    Reno 6Pro 5G-*36k+
    All BBK with Dimensity 1200.

      At least Sony is continuing with bezels, and Asus with flip camera (not sure how much longer tho given this year's lackluster 8 Flip)

The Reno series became a joke with the Reno3 series and Find X2 series while good, hardly pushed any design boundary.

          with almost everyone using phone covers and back covers, the glow effect hardly makes any difference

          but agree with their 7-8mm and 175 gm approach....personally using reno 5 series...its really good due to lightweight and slim design...

            This interview has the most boring answers in years. You could literally interview any salesman on the street for answers like these. 0% insight, 100% marketing. It was like interview with a robot or ai. 0 satisfaction.

                      Among the Chinese brands, Oppo is the most innovative. The Find X from 2018 was amazing.

                        It would be around 35k just like last gen Reno5Pro5g. So X7 Max is again better than Oppo equivalent for much cheaper @27k this time around than even last time when X7 Pro was @30k

                                    Bring Oppo Find X3 Pro at 55K witb 8+256 version to gain market share. Your market share is down because you let your sister companies to grow in India. Bring it at affordable prices.

                                      Just by introducing attractive colours, you can't sell overpriced products in India. Nobody will buy overpriced product with dimensity 1200 at 47000.You need to bring price down to 35K. Then only it has slight chance to do well. Otherwise its no go.
