A Collaborative Effort of Oppo
To improve its Gen AI features, Oppo is also planning on shaking hands with industry leaders like Google, Microsoft, Mediatek, and Qualcomm.
The collaboration with Microsoft can ensure an enhanced natural voice and text conversion experiences for Oppo. It can use Microsoft’s Transcription and Neural TTS technologies for this. Further, the partnership also aims to make it easier for users to use desktop AI and mobile AI. Oppo smartphone users will be able to use the desktop version of Copilot for content generation, text translation, and address searches via a connected PC.
As far as Mediatek is concerned, they are collaborating to develop new chipsets featuring dedicated AI processing units. Google’s Gemini LLM can power AI features in its flagship devices.
Let’s wait and see how these partnerships face out and how Oppo plans on releasing them in the future. But from what it seems, the wait isn’t going to be too long.
