Maybe the only thing that shook up the scene was the release of its first-ever EV - the Xiaomi SU7. So, let's begin with this one. Winner: Xiaomi SU7 If we just look at the stats, the Xiaomi SU7 is... Read more ›

It's not easy summing up Oppo's year. In its home market of China, Oppo was a solid top brand - virtually matching vivo and trading blows with Honor, Xiaomi, and Huawei. But on the global stage, we saw very few products from Oppo.
