Stand Out in Portrait with the New OPPO Reno11 Series 5G

NADINE LUSTRE

OPPO continues to be a leader in mobile portrait photography as it introduces trailblazing Portrait Expert smartphones that are able to take visually-stunning portraits, allowing users to stand out by bringing out their most natural beauty.

To kick off its 10th year of innovation and industry-leading technology, OPPO introduces the latest addition to its renowned Reno Series – the OPPO Reno11 Series 5G. 


The two new Portrait Experts  – the OPPO Reno11 5G and the OPPO Reno11 Pro 5G – will raise the bar for mobile smartphone photography, design, user experience, and performance. The OPPO Reno11 Series 5G strengthens  OPPO's leadership  within its price point, showcasing an unparalleled combination of innovation, style, and functionality that truly sets them apart. 


Featuring an enhanced Ultra-Clear Portrait Camera System with an industry-leading 32MP Telephoto Portrait Camera, the new devices also bring forth a new Natural Aesthetic Design, a redesigned and user-friendly ColorOS 14, and an all-around strong smartphone performance.


Stand Out With Next-Level Camera System

Step into a world of photographic innovation with the upgraded camera system of the OPPO Reno11 Series 5G. Both devices feature a 50MP Ultra-Clear Main Camera with OIS, a 32MP Telephoto Camera, and an 8MP Ultra-Wide Camera that captures photos and videos in the highest quality possible. 


The OPPO Reno11 5G’s main camera features a powerful 50MP Sony LYT600 sensor with a 1/1.95” sensor size, f/1.8 aperture lens, and Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) at a 26mm focal length. Additionally, it includes a telephoto lens equipped with a 32MP Sony IMX709 sensor, 1/2.74” sensor size, f/2 aperture lens, and a 47mm focal length for impressive portrait shots. 


Meanwhile, the OPPO Reno11 Pro 5G’s camera system includes a main camera with 50MP Sony IMX890 sensor, featuring a substantial 1/1.56” sensor size, f/1.8 aperture lens, and the added advantage of OIS at a 24mm focal length. Complementing this, the Telephoto Camera incorporates a 32MP Sony IMX709 sensor with a 1/2.74” sensor size, f/2 aperture lens, and a 47mm focal length, enhancing the device's capabilities for capturing portrait shots with clarity and precision.


Another thing to be excited about the OPPO Reno11 Series 5G is the Telephoto Portrait Camera. Its 2x professional composition and Portrait Mode, makes it feel like you have your own professional photographer. It also offers a studio-quality Ultra-Clear Portrait Camera System designed to capture super-sharp images with unprecedented clarity across various focal lengths, a huge leap forward in portrait photography.


Immerse yourself in a world of visual storytelling where every shot becomes a timeless expression of your unique perspective.



OPPO has worked with industry experts to optimize the Portrait Expert Engine on the Reno Series. There are four key enhancements that make shooting on the Reno11 5G and Reno11 Pro 5G even better. 

The first feature is the pixel-level segmentation algorithms which improve object recognition, ensuring more accurate portrait recognition in all photos. Secondly, OPPO employs targeted techniques for autofocus, exposure, and white balance, specifically tailored for various skin tones to preserve realistic and natural facial features. The third feature highlights retouching algorithms that are refined to even out skin tones, remove blemishes, and align with local tastes. The final one involves optimizing image backgrounds for seamless integration with the subject.


The result is a remarkable leap in portrait quality, positioning photos taken with the Reno11 Series 5G on par with those captured by a DSLR camera, bringing studio-quality photos within easy reach.





Stand Out with a Refreshed, Natural Aesthetic Design

The OPPO Reno11 Series 5G takes uniqueness to the next level with bespoke finishes for each phone, shimmering layers that stand out, and colors inspired by nature. The Reno11 Series 5G design combines a slim, lightweight frame with styling rich in depth and dimension and a velvety smooth touch. 


The OPPO Reno11 5G presents two stunning options: the innovative Wave Green, establishing a shimmering silk texture that marks a groundbreaking first in the Reno Series, and the more subdued yet captivating Rock Grey, which reveals layers of bright and soft silver-gray glitter when exposed to light. The choices for the OPPO Reno11 Pro 5G extend to the sophisticated Rock Grey and a distinctive Pearl White finish, elevating the device with a natural luster. Achieved through an industry-leading, three-dimensional etching process that delves into microscopic details, each Reno11 Pro is essentially a one-of-a-kind device, offering unparalleled customization and a uniquely captivating design.


The new Reno series smartphones also get an upgrade in the placement of its three-camera systems, which are now nestled in OPPO’s “Sunshine Rings” matrix design - two adjoining rings that catch and reflect light outward for cleaner, crisper shots while embellishing the lenses to create an eye-catching contrast with the phone’s unique back finishes. 


The 6.7-inch 3D display of the OPPO Reno11 Series 5G, which has a 93% screen-to-body ratio and a nearly borderless curved-screen effect, provides users with rich tones and aesthetically breathtaking visuals, captivating them. It boasts a flexible screen with over a billion colors, provides a visual feast for video watching, gaming, and app browsing, complemented by its visually striking 120Hz dynamic refresh rate for a seamless and captivating viewing experience.


With its two speakers and OReality Audio, the OPPO Reno11 5G provides an enveloping listening experience. Its Ultra Volume Modes allow you to crank up the volume to 300% for media playing and 200% for crystal-clear phone calls. 




Stand Out With Long-lasting Battery Life and LargerStorage

The OPPO Reno11 Series 5G is surprisingly powerful for its size and weight, providing an entire day of texting, web surfing, music playing, video streaming, and vlogging on a single charge. Your battery worries will be a thing of the past with its massive 5000mAh capacity. On top of that, OPPO has optimized the battery system to continue functioning properly after four years, thanks to its patented Battery Health Engine, which ensures that batteries endure a long time.


Stand Out With the ColorOs14’s Reliable Performance 

Get ready for an incredible adventure on the OPPO Reno11 Series 5G with ColorOS 14, which combines many features, including security, dependability, aesthetics, and productivity. Transform your smartphone into an adaptable companion for all your requirements as you glide through its interfaces and intuitive touches, putting amazingly clever capabilities at your fingertips.


It contains dependable features such as File Dock, Smart Touch, and Smart Image Matting, which brings efficiency to tasks that users will benefit from. Through the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) network selection with a 360-degree surround antenna design, OPPO's patented network optimization engine, LinkBoost, achieves up to a 100% increase in transmission power and a 44% improvement in reception, resulting in the most consistent signal with the least amount of downtime. No matter if you're browsing, calling, or messaging, you'll have a reliable signal.


Trinity Engine, ColorOS 14's next-gen efficient computing technology, improves stability and speed, keeping your phone running smoothly and extending its storage life. It has ROM, RAM, and CPU Vitalisation, aiming to increase storage, improve smoothness while multitasking, and provide the best battery life possible.

Jollibee Foods Corporation and Republic Cement Unite to Recover and Divert Plastic Packaging Wastes through Co-Processing

Jollibee Foods Corporation and Republic Cement Unite to Recover and Divert Plastic Packaging Wastes through Co-Processing

TAGUIG CITY, Philippines. 01 February 2024 – The Jollibee Foods Corporation (JFC), one of the fastest growing  restaurant companies in the world, recently inked a partnership with Republic Cement and Building Materials, Inc. ("Republic Cement"), to support the Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) Law. 

The EPR law aims to reduce the volume of plastic waste generation and extend the life of plastics by adding value or purpose through upcycling or recycling.

As part of its Joy for Tomorrow global sustainability agenda, JFC aims to recover post-consumer plastic packaging wastes, divert it away from the landfills and waterways, and send these to Republic Cement for co-processing. 

Republic Cement, a leading local cement manufacturer and the pioneer of co-processing in the country, will use the collected post-consumer packaging wastes as alternative fuel in the cement manufacturing process.

During the MOA signing held at the Republic Cement head office in Taguig City, Republic Cement CEO Mr. Roman Menz emphasized the role of the company in supporting organizations like JFC. 

“Republic Cement provides a very important solution to fight plastic pollution by diverting wastes away from landfills and waterways, away from areas where it can negatively affect communities. We are happy to see the commitment of the JFC towards doing their part in solving our current plastic pollution crisis. Republic Cement is with JFC in their journey for a greener, more sustainable world.”

JFC Vice President for Network Development Group Gerard Paul Filart, for his part, shared that the partnership with Republic Cement is timely and momentous as the company just celebrated its 45th anniversary in 2023. “We are committed to supporting our Global Sustainability Agenda with its three main pillars of Food, People, and Planet. With this partnership with Republic Cement, we are taking steps towards minimizing wastage while providing something of value.  With this, we are hoping we are helping to bring more joy for tomorrow.” 

The MOA covers wholly owned brands of Jollibee Foods Corporation in the Philippines, namely Jollibee, Chowking, Mang Inasal, Greenwich, and Red Ribbon; and franchised brands operated by JFC in the country, specifically Burger King, Panda Express, and Yoshinoya.
