OPPO might be the next OEM to release a phone based on the new Snapdragon 665 SoC

OPPO may be making a phone based on the relatively novel Snapdragon 665 (SD 665) platform. This new SoC was released only a few months ago, and has heretofore only been seen in the Mi CC9e, a new China-exclusive phone from Xiaomi.

The SD 665 is an octa-core CPU with 4 Kryo 260 Gold cores clocked at 2.0GHz and 4 Kryo 260 Silver cores clocked at 1.8GHz. Its GPU is the Adreno 610, and supports LPDDR4X RAM and cameras of up to 48MP in resolution.

At this point, it is not clear if the OPPO CPH1931 will feature all of these possibilities. Its current alleged certifications do indicate that it has Bluetooth 5.0, as well as a 6.1-inch display and a 5000mAh battery. The latter spec suggests that the putative new phone is a high-value mid-ranger, as phones of this tier may feature large batteries as a selling point.
