New details about Oppo's wide-screen phone surface

Rumors about a wide-screen flagship smartphone from Oppo have been circulating for some time. A new leak has now revealed details on the device’s display aspect ratio and overall width.

Tipster Digital Chat Station claims that Oppo’s wide-screen smartphone, rumored to be called the Reno X, will feature a 16:9 display.

A 16:9 aspect ratio was common on older smartphones, but modern phones typically feature taller displays with a 19.5:9 or 20:9 aspect ratio.

DCS also noted that the phone will offer narrow bezels on all sides measuring around 1mm. The total width of the screen is said to be 81mm, whereas the phone would be around 85mm wide.

The tipster had previously claimed that the device would feature a 6.3 inch to 6.4 inch display with a 16:10 aspect ratio. However, based on the latest information, Oppo’s upcoming phone could feature a slightly larger 6.5 inch screen.

Meanwhile, Huawei’s Pura X View, currently the only wide-screen, non-folding smartphone on the market, features a 5:3 display and an 87mm wide body.

Based on the rumored dimensions, Oppo’s upcoming phone could be slightly taller and narrower than Huawei’s offering.
