In China, the Reno7 series consists of three handsets: Reno7 SE, Reno7, and Reno7 Pro. The Reno7 SE, however, is not expected to make its way to India. The Reno7 series has seen some success in China where the first batch got sold out within 15 minutes. With these new phones, OPPO will take on Xiaomi and Samsung in India's mid-range segment.
