Oppo apparently has a prototype portless and buttonless phone that supports wired charging.
The device is also rumored to have an under-display selfie camera and electrochromic tech to hide the rear shooter.
Oppo might be working on a portless, button-free phone as per the latest leak by Weibo tipster Digital Chat Station. However, unlike similar prototypes from Xiaomi and Vivo that only get a wireless charging option, Oppo’s version is also said to include wired charging.
The leaker claims that Oppo’s portless prototype has a USB interface hidden by “a special structural design” that is absolutely integrated with the phone. It sounds like Oppo could be experimenting with a proprietary charging technique that allows for wired charging without the need for an actual charging port. Perhaps it’s something like Apple’s MagSafe technology that uses magnets and an integrated charging coil to charge the iPhones 12 lineup.
