Oppo has now resumed global product sales following the resolution of its patent disputes with Nokia. Consequently, the company is gradually expanding its product offering outside China. For context, the company recently released the Find X8 and Find X8 Pro across multiple markets. As part of its global return, Oppo has decided to introduce its latest charger to use its proprietary Voltage Open Loop Multi-step Constant-Current Charging (VOOC) charging technology in the UK.
Specifically, the company is now selling the 50W AirVOOC Magnetic Charger in the UK, having presented the same device earlier this year in China. For reference, OnePlus also offers the same charger in its home market, which it released while the OnePlus 12 (curr. $770 on Amazon) remained its current flagship. Unfortunately, there is no sign of a OnePlus equivalent globally, yet.

Nonetheless, Oppo claims that the 50W AirVOOC Magnetic Charger can recharge Oppo and OnePlus devices in around 90 minutes from flat. Moreover, the device is compatible with other smartphones that support magnetically-aligned wireless charger, such as recent Apple iPhones. On top of that, Oppo has included a small fan to keep itself and a connected device cool when charging.
Currently, the 50W AirVOOC Magnetic Charger is available in the UK for £79.99 (~$101), including 20% VAT. There is no word yet on availability for other markets yet, though. Please see Oppo's website for more details.
