Google brings Gemini to another highly anticipated smartphone series
Initially introduced in China last week, Reno 14 and Reno 14 Pro are now being prepared for their global launch. Oppo hasn't yet confirmed when they will be available, but today's announcement confirmed they will be available in all markets where the company sells its products. Building upon its partnership with Google, Oppo plans to take AI integration to the next level by adding Gemini to its mid-range Reno 14 phones. Gemini will be able to pull information and help Reno 14 users take action across multiple apps and services, including Oppo Notes, Calendar, and Clock.Also, Reno 14 users will be able to complete tasks directly in their chat thanks to Google's Gemini. With a single prompt, users can ask Gemini to work across their apps, simply by pressing and holding the side button to activate Gemini.

Oppo revealed that Gemini will support multi-app experiences to help users complete even more tasks and save time. For example, Reno 14 users can ask Gemini to summarize key points from a large document and save the summary directly into Oppo Notes app for easy access.With the addition of Google Gemini, managing schedules and daily routines will also become more intuitive. For instance, after booking a hotel or plane flight, Reno 14 owners can ask Gemini to 'add this to my Oppo Calendar,' which will automatically create an event in the app.Today's announcement doesn't really come as a surprise since Oppo announced earlier this year at MWC 2025 that it plans to enhance its AI strategy with new partnerships and collaborations. On top of that, Oppo revealed that it wants to bring AI features to nearly 100 million users by the end of 2025, but that will mostly depend on the popularity of its new phones.

Here's when the Oppo K13 Turbo series will launch in India
Oppo launched the K13 Turbo series smartphones in China last week, and it has been teasing these phones in India for the past few days. Oppo hasn't revealed when it will launch the K13 Turbo series in India, but we've learned from a reliable source that the lineup will debut in India in the week of August 11. To be more precise, between August 11 and August 14. Oppo's K13 Turbo series includes two phones - the Oppo K13 Turbo and the Oppo K13 Turbo Pro. Both have similar designs and specs, with the most significant difference being the chipset. The K13 Turbo is powered by the Dimensity 8450 SoC, while the K13 Turbo Pro has the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chip at the helm. Oppo K13 Turbo • Oppo K13 Turbo Pro One of the biggest highlights of these phones is the built-in cooling fan, advertised to help the devices run 2–4°C cooler under high-load conditions. Oppo's Indian branch said this fan module will be IPX6, IPX8, and IPX9-rated, and the smartphones will have 7,000 mAh batteries under the hood. We are yet to get an official confirmation on whether or not the Oppo K13 Turbo and K13 Turbo Pro's Indian models will share the design and specs with their Chinese counterparts, but while we await a word on that, you can read our Oppo K13 Turbo and K13 Turbo Pro's China announcement coverage here for more details about the handsets.

Qualcomm has a new high-end chipset on the way
Qualcomm is holding its next launch event in late September, and it's expected to unveil the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 at that time. That chip has the model number SM8850, but rumors in China have been bubbling for a while regarding the SM8845 also launching this year. This won't be the Snapdragon 8s Gen 5, as it's higher-end than that, but still a step below the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2. It's unclear what Qualcomm will call it, but some are assuming it will be Snapdragon 8 Plus. It's billed as pretty much on par, performance-wise, with the original Snapdragon 8 Elite from last year, as it also uses an all-big core CPU configuration with Qualcomm's custom-developed cores. Compared to the 8 Elite, it's going to be fabbed on a newer process, and will use some of the 8 Elite 2's peripherals. So, overall it should be a very slight improvement over the original 8 Elite. Prolific Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station says the SM8845 will be used by Oppo and OnePlus as well as vivo, and the phones which will be powered by it will have very large batteries, up to 8,000 mAh. It's definitely sounding like the SM8845 will become the chipset of choice for 'flagship killer' type devices, and will nicely bridge the performance gap between the 8s series and the 8 Elite lineup. Though with it being so close in parameters to the original 8 Elite, it will be interesting to see if that SoC will be discontinued or not. Source (in Chinese)
