The OPPO Reno14 Series has landed – get ready to glow up
But your phone fumbles the shot, again. This is where the OPPO Reno14 Series changes everything.
This new device is the go-to for capturing life as it happens, exactly how it looks and feels. With powerful AI Flash Photography, cinematic LivePhotos, and editing tools that do the work for you, it's built for those blink-and-you'll-miss-it moments.
The series — available in Reno14 Pro, Reno14, and Reno14 F — is here to light up your feed, your vibe, and your world.
Shine brighter than fireworks
With a revamped ultra-clear low-light camera system and an innovative 3-Flash Design, this 50MP powerhouse redefines what low-light photography can look like.
Whether you're chasing golden hour or vibing in neon city lights, Reno14's advanced triple flash setup supports two pro-level lighting modes that will leave you in awe.
Tap into 'Flash Mode' to create bold, three-dimensional effects using a quick pre-flash followed by a powerful main flash, instantly lighting up your shot.
Or switch to 'Fill Light Mode' for a soft, consistent glow that flatters every frame, perfect for those chill, effortless moments.

But here's where it really shines. The main and wide-angle lenses now come with dual flash units that light up your subject with up to 120 lux brightness at one metre, making it twice as bright as before.
Meanwhile, the 3.5x telephoto camera features its own dedicated flash, delivering 70 lux brightness at two metres – said to be the brightest in the industry and 10x stronger than the previous generation.
The result? Perfect portraits and night shots that pop, no matter the distance or mood.
Motion meets magic
With AI Livephoto 2.0, the Reno14 Pro captures the emotion behind the motion. Powered by a Dual Exposure Fusion solution, the device captures both short and long exposures at once – freezing action while preserving rich detail – then fuses them in real time.
You can transform any three-second video clip into a smooth, high-res Livephoto, even in 4K.
And here's the game-changer: Reno14 Pro is considered the first Android phone that lets you upload Livephotos directly to Instagram and TikTok. No third-party apps, no workarounds – just shoot, share, and shine.
Studio in your hand
Editing on the go? The upgraded AI Editor 2.0 is your personal studio, right in your hand. It features AI Recompose, AI Perfect Shot, and AI Group Photo Composer, all trained on pro-level photography data.

With just one tap, you can crop, adjust, straighten, and stylise your images — choosing from multiple smart options before generating the perfect result.
Whether you're fixing angles or finessing group shots, the AI does the heavy lifting so you can focus on flexing your creativity.
Vlog like a pro
For the creators, vloggers, and storytellers out there, the Reno14 Pro delivers where it matters most – video.
All three rear cameras – main, ultra-wide, and telephoto – now support AI-enhanced 4K HDR video recording, with seamless switching between focal lengths.
Your content stays sharp, vibrant, and stable no matter how you frame it. And to make your voice heard, the new AI Vlog Voice Enhancer cuts through the noise.
In Stage Mode, it isolates the main voice from background chaos like cheering crowds or ambient sound.
For selfie vloggers, the front camera's Selfie Vlog Voice Enhancement keeps your voice front and centre, crystal clear even in noisy environments.
Endless vibes
The Reno 14 is designed to dazzle. Its Iridescent Mermaid design steals the spotlight with a dreamy, light-catching finish – elevated by the industry's first-ever velvet glass, seen on the Reno14 Pro and Reno14.
Pushing design boundaries further, the Iridescent Glow Process uses ultra-precise patterned coating and a revolutionary 12-layer construction – twice as many as before – available in select hues like Opal White (Reno14 Pro and Reno14) and Opal Blue (Reno14 F).
Adding to its charm, the Gradient Aura design offers a sleek, centralised gradient that softens the camera module for a more refined, symmetrical look.
EZgames, EZshare
The Reno14 Pro is built for serious play, powered by the blazing-fast MediaTek Dimensity 8450 – the world's first-known chip to feature a cutting-edge Cortex-A725 All Big Core architecture for next-level speed and efficiency.
Keep your cool even in the heat of battle with the AI Nano Dual-Drive Cooling System, designed to maintain smooth, stable performance during marathon gaming sessions – even when the temperature rises.
Capture your best plays effortlessly with AI Game highlights, which lets you create epic recap videos with just one click.
Want more control? The Game Capture feature comes equipped with a Replay Recorder, so you can save and share your best game moments in multiple formats.
And with a massive 6,200mAh battery, plus 80W SUPERVOOC and 50W AIRVOOC flash charging, you've got all the juice you need to go the distance.
Every moment, even underwater
With the Reno14 Series, you can even take your adventures underwater. Featuring IP69 water and dust resistance and a dedicated Underwater Photography Mode, it's built to capture stunning moments even while you swim.
Built for freshwater fun, the Reno14 Series is safe up to two metres for 30 minutes. Image: elietomato
Whether you're exploring a pool or snapping underwater selfies, controls are easy: tap volume up to take a photo, volume down to record video, press the lock button to turn off the screen, and long press it to exit underwater mode.
Zero stress with colour OS
The Reno14 Series runs on the all-new ColorOS 15, built for seamless performance.
At its core are two powerful, independently developed engines: the Trinity Engine and Luminous Rendering Engine – working together to ensure everything stays smooth, responsive, and lag-free, even after long hours of use.
To make everyday tasks even easier, AI Super Toolbox steps in with smart, intuitive features designed to simplify your life — from smarter app management to seamless multitasking.

The Reno14 Series is now officially available nationwide. To celebrate the launch, OPPO is offering exclusive rewards worth up to RM2,196 with every Reno14 Series purchase until Aug 10.

TikTok will go dark in US without Chinese approval of sale deal, US commerce secretary says
BENGALURU: US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said on Thursday that TikTok will have to stop operating in the United States if China does not approve a deal for the sale of the Chinese-owned short video app that is used by some 170 million Americans. Lutnick, speaking on CNBC, also said the United States must control the algorithm that makes the social media platform work. Last month, President Donald Trump extended by 90 days to Sept 17, 2025 a deadline for China-based ByteDance to divest the US assets of TikTok. Trump's action took place despite a 2024 law that mandated a sale or shutdown by Jan 19, 2025 if there had not been significant progress. "China can have a little piece or ByteDance, the current owner, can keep a little piece. But basically, Americans will have control. Americans will own the technology, and Americans will control the algorithm," Lutnick said. "If that deal gets approved, by the Chinese, then that deal will happen. If they don't approve it, then TikTok is going to go dark, and those decisions are coming very soon." TikTok did not immediately comment. A deal had been in the works this spring that would spin off TikTok's US operations into a new US-based firm, majority-owned and operated by US investors. This stalled after China indicated it would not approve it following Trump's announcements of steep tariffs on Chinese goods. Trump has three times granted reprieves from federal enforcement of the law that mandated the sale or shutdown of TikTok that was supposed to take effect in Jan 2025. Attorney General Pam Bondi sent letters to Apple, Google and other companies that provide services or host the TikTok app that were made public this month. The letters said the Justice Department was irrevocably relinquishing any claims against the companies for potential violations of the law, citing Trump's determination that an abrupt shutdown would interfere with his overseeing national security and foreign affairs. Some Democratic lawmakers argue Trump has no legal authority to extend the deadline and suggest the deal under consideration would not meet legal requirements.

Anxious parents face tough choices on AI
The path is all the more difficult for parents given the lack of scientific research on AI's effects on users. — Pixabay NEW YORK: When it comes to AI, many parents navigate between fear of the unknown and fear of their children missing out. "It's really hard to predict anything over five years," said Adam Tal, an Israeli marketing executive and father of two boys aged seven and nine, when describing the post-generative AI world. Tal is "very worried" about the future this technology holds for his children – whether it's deepfakes, "the inability to distinguish between reality and AI," or "the thousands of possible new threats that I wasn't trained to detect." Mike Brooks, a psychologist from Austin, Texas, who specializes in parenting and technology, worries that parents are keeping their heads in the sand, refusing to grapple with AI. "They're already overwhelmed with parenting demands," he observed – from online pornography and TikTok to video games and "just trying to get them out of their rooms and into the real world." For Marc Watkins, a professor at the University of Mississippi who focuses on AI in teaching, "we've already gone too far" to shield children from AI past a certain age. Yet some parents are still trying to remain gatekeepers to the technology. "In my circle of friends and family, I'm the only one exploring AI with my child," remarked Melissa Franklin, mother of a 7-year-old boy and law student in Kentucky. "I don't understand the technology behind AI," she said, "but I know it's inevitable, and I'd rather give my son a head start than leave him overwhelmed." 'Benefits and risks' The path is all the more difficult for parents given the lack of scientific research on AI's effects on users. Several parents cite a study published in June by MIT, showing that brain activity and memory were more stimulated in individuals not using generative AI than in those who had access to it. "I'm afraid it will become a shortcut," explained a father of three who preferred to remain anonymous. "After this MIT study, I want them to use it only to deepen their knowledge." This caution shapes many parents' approaches. Tal prefers to wait before letting his sons use AI tools. Melissa Franklin only allows her son to use AI with her supervision to find information "we can't find in a book, through Google, or on YouTube." For her, children must be encouraged to "think for themselves," with or without AI. But one father – a computer engineer with a 15-year-old – doesn't believe kids will learn AI skills from their parents anyway. "That would be like claiming that kids learn how to use TikTok from their parents," he said. It's usually "the other way around." Watkins, himself a father, says he is "very concerned" about the new forms that generative AI is taking, but considers it necessary to read about the subject and "have in-depth conversations about it with our children." "They're going to use artificial intelligence," he said, "so I want them to know the potential benefits and risks." The CEO of AI chip giant Nvidia, Jensen Huang, often speaks of AI as "the greatest equalization force that we have ever known," democratizing learning and knowledge. But Watkins fears a different reality: "Parents will view this as a technology that will be used if you can afford it, to get your kid ahead of everyone else." The computer scientist father readily acknowledged this disparity, saying "My son has an advantage because he has two parents with PhDs in computer science, but that's 90% due to the fact that we are more affluent than average" – not their AI knowledge. "That does have some pretty big implications," Watkins said. – AFP
