The phone offers 5x hybrid zoom and up to 20x digital zoom, which is less impressive than the 10x hybrid zoom capability of the company's flagship Reno 10x Zoom.

For selfies, the Reno 2 has a 16MP shark fin rising front camera with the ability to capture live bokeh video. The phone also includes a 4,000mAh battery with the company's VOOC 3.0 fast charging technology.

The Reno 2Z and Reno 2F come with a marginally smaller 6.53-inch AMOLED display and a 48MP quad camera setup on the back. They also pack the same 4,000mAh battery as the Reno 2.

OPPO has priced the Reno 2 at ₹36,990 ($515) in India. The slightly less impressive Reno 2Z, on the other hand, is priced at ₹29,990 ($418). The Reno 2 will be going on sale on September 20, while the Reno 2Z will be available from September 6.
