OPPO is working towards the launch of new Smart Tag, and its no secret. We first heard about the OPPO Smart Tag back in January. Last month the OPPO Smart Tag patent was even spotted by 91Mobiles. The Chinese smartphone maker had filed this patent with China National Intellectual Property Administration (CNIPA) patent authority. The patent had revealed the possible design of this upcoming Smart Tag. Well, now in a recent development, the OPPO Smart Tag has leaked out in full glory ahead of launch. This new leak is out courtesy of Digital Chat Station on Weibo. Let’s check more details about this upcoming Smart Tag ahead:
OPPO Smart Tag Real-Life Images Revealed Online
The newly leaked images of the OPPO Smart Tag first of all doesn’t match with the one that we had seen in the patent filing earlier. If we have a closer look at the newly revealed images, we can see that the OPPO Smart Tag will be round in shape. The Smart Tag has a brand logo on top, and it will even come with the UWB (Ultra Wide Band) technology. This upcoming device is expected to offer USB Type-C connectivity. As of now, we still are not sure if this is a prototype model or a final version that OPPO is prepping up for the launch.
The Chinese smartphone maker was initially rumoured to launch the Smart Tag alongside the OPPO Find X3 series. However, the launch of this product, unfortunately, didn’t take place earlier. Now, that we are seeing the leaked images online, we can expect OPPO to officially reveal this product in the upcoming days. Similar to the other Smart Tag, this Bluetooth-enabled device will help locate certain items and objects.
As mentioned above, these newly leaked images of the Smart Tag is quite different from the one we had seen in the CNIPA patent documents. The earlier patent document had revealed that the OPPO Smart Tag will resemble rectangular in shape. The folks at LetsGoDigital even had discovered the OPPO Smart Tag product back in January. The publication claimed that OPPO had filed a patent for this new device back in May 2020, and the documents were released back in January this year. The patent showed us that this device will have a rounded corner. However, it didn’t reveal any dimension details back then.
The upcoming Smart Tag will compete with the Samsung Smart Tag, and more recently announced Apple AirTag. What are your thoughts about this new OPPO product? Do let us know in the comments below.
