OPPO to unveil 5G mobile phones in 2019

OPPO plans to launch 5G mobile phones in 2019 to bring the greatest 5G experience to users around the world.

The launch in 2019 is set in adhering to the core needs of OPPO users to innovate, and continuously prepare for 5G products and other advanced technologies.

“The 5G mobile network is going to change the global mobile industry structure, and mobile phones will become the major terminal for the Internet of Things. OPPO has been focusing on technology innovation in the past which has laid great foundations for 5G related R&D. In the future, OPPO will continue to invest in groundbreaking technologies such as 5G and Artificial Intelligence, and apply these to product scenarios based on the core needs of users,” said Tony Chen, CEO of OPPO Global.

On January 16, 2018, IMT-2020 (5G) Promotion Group, the key promotion organization established by three official ministries in China, released the 5G technology R&D trial phase 3 specifications in Beijing. OPPO has participated as the only smartphone manufacturer and made contributions to the 5G standard formulation.

The step is in line with OPPO’s earlier set up of a special R&D team in the beginning of 2015 for the next telecommunications standards and recruited experts with rich experience in international standard development field, that’s now leading the smartphone industry regarding research excellence.

“The upcoming 5G era is unprecedented for the mobile phone industry, and OPPO will work together with our partners in the industry to grasp opportunities in this field.” the Vice President of OPPO, Alen Wu said.

OPPO has also partnered with Qualcomm Technologies spearheading the “5G Pioneer Initiative” launch to explore ways toward mobile technology innovations in the 5G era.

Through the “5G Pioneer Initiative”, Qualcomm Technologies will support OPPO to create brand new 5G mobile phone experiences for users around the world by providing comprehensive solutions such as the radiofrequency front-end field.

“Qualcomm Technologies has always been a key strategic partner and, OPPO will continue to deepen cooperation with Qualcomm to facilitate healthy development of the industry.”

“In 2018, OPPO will speed up entry into global markets, and specifically enter more developed countries like Japan, to provide smartphones featuring advanced technologies and artistic design to more users in the world,” Wu added.

China manufacturers with the world leading technology innovators are the leading force to embrace the commercialized 5G networks. And now, they are hopefully to bring the 5G experience to consumers around the world earlier thanks to their same faith in the future.
