According to OPPO, an analysis of user insights showed that about 40 percent of photos shot on Reno smartphones are taken after 5pm. For video, this percentage is even higher at nearly 50 percent.
“This discovery caused us to think about how we can better cater to user demand for fantastic image quality in darker nighttime environments,” OPPO said in a statement. “Based on this, we upgraded the portrait features on the latest Reno8 series to unleash unlimited imaging power that enables users to capture every memorable moment in life with incredible detail and clarity.”
The company developed a special algorithm on the Reno8 5G, called the Ultra Night Video algorithm, that automatically detects ambient light and increases image brightness, improves color expression, and sharpens facial features.
OPPO also created a feature for the Reno8 5G to compensate for the high contrast between light and dark in night-time photography. When the smartphone detects a high dynamic range in the scene, it will automatically toggle to its DOL-HDR feature, which processes each video frame with enhanced dynamic range and true-to-life colors enhance the brightness and clarity of the entire image.
