Highlights

• Caviar’s Black Edition introduces iPhone 18 Pro Max and iPhone Duo variants with no front or rear cameras, built from aerospace-grade titanium.
• These limited edition models are designed for secure corporate/government environments while other models retain cameras with premium finishes.
• Limited to 19 units each, prices range from $10,560 to $13,990 and each phone is packaged in lockable boxes with a gold-plated commemorative coin.

Caviar has introduced its latest Black Edition collection featuring heavily customised versions of Apple’s iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max and foldable iPhone Duo. The new lineup focuses on an all-black look with two special models taking the customisation further by completely removing the camera modules.

Caviar Black Edition Design and Camera-Free Models

The collection is available in several different designs but the Supersonic iPhone 18 Pro and Ultimate iPhone Duo are the most unusual options. Both models remove the rear camera bumps completely and replace them with a flat, uninterrupted panel made from aerospace-grade titanium.

Caviar has also removed the front-facing cameras at the hardware level on these two models.

With the camera hardware removed, the rear panel has a completely flat metal finish. The Supersonic iPhone 18 Pro gets a satin finish designed to reduce reflections, while the Ultimate iPhone Duo uses vertical brushing that can appear black or graphite depending on the lighting. Both phones also feature a flush black Apple logo that blends into the body.

Why Did Caviar Remove the Cameras?

According to the company, the camera-free versions are designed for people working in secure corporate or government environments where camera-equipped devices are not allowed.

By physically removing both the rear and front cameras, the Supersonic iPhone 18 Pro and Ultimate iPhone Duo are designed for such restricted environments.

Other Caviar Black Edition Models Keep the Cameras

Users who still want to take photos can choose from four other models in the collection, Versus, Titanium, Signature and Prestige. These versions retain the standard Apple camera hardware but replace the original glass rear panels with premium materials.

The designs use materials including black crocodile leather, exposed titanium screws and 999-fine gold plating. The Signature and Prestige editions also feature V-shaped gold inserts that stand out against their black leather and metal finishes.

Rather than using bright colours, Caviar has focused mainly on different materials and textures to create the visual differences between the models.

No Changes to Internal Hardware

Despite the extensive exterior modifications, Caviar has not changed the internal processing hardware, battery or software of the base iPhones.

This means buyers are essentially paying for the custom chassis and limited production run, rather than upgraded internal specifications.

Caviar Black Edition Price and Availability

Caviar will produce only 19 units of each model, making the collection highly limited.

Prices for the iPhone 18 Pro models start at $10,560 for the leather-backed Versus edition and go up to $10,770 for the camera-free Supersonic version.

The foldable iPhone Duo editions are more expensive. The Titanium version starts at $13,410, while the camera-free Ultimate edition costs up to $13,990.

Each device comes packaged in a custom lockable box and includes a gold-plated commemorative coin.

• OPPO Reno 17 series tipped to feature a 200MP main sensor, gimbal-level stabilisation, and possible teleconverter accessory support.
• The series is expected to use MediaTek Dimensity 8600 and Dimensity 9500 chipsets.
• The series is likely to debut in November 2026, although there has been no official confirmation by the brand.

OPPO is reportedly working on the next-generation Reno 17 series and it could be working on some major camera and performance upgrades. The Reno 17 lineup is tipped to feature a 200MP main camera, gimbal-level stabilisation and support for a teleconverter accessory. The latest leak also claims that OPPO is considering MediaTek’s Dimensity 8600 and Dimensity 9500 chipsets for the Reno 17 series. The phones are currently expected to launch in November 2026.

OPPO Reno 17 Series Tipped to Get 200MP Main Camera

The OPPO Reno 17 series could bring a major camera upgrade over its predecessors. According to the latest tip, OPPO is considering a 200MP camera sensor for the Reno 17 series.

The new camera is expected to be paired with gimbal stabilisation, which could help improve image and video stability when shooting handheld or recording moving subjects.

However, the exact 200MP sensor and other camera specifications are not known yet. OPPO has also not officially confirmed the camera setup.

Gimbal-Level Stabilisation Could Be the Reno 17’s Biggest Camera Upgrade

Gimbal stabilisation is another key feature coming up in latest reports. The technology is designed to provide better physical stabilisation than standard electronic or optical stabilisation, potentially resulting in smoother videos and more stable photos.

The leak does not reveal which Reno 17 models will get the gimbal-style stabilisation. More details about how OPPO plans to implement it are also yet to emerge.

OPPO Reno 17 Series May Support a Teleconverter

OPPO is also reportedly considering teleconverter support for the Reno 17 series. A teleconverter can provide better magnification to a smartphone camera, allowing users to capture distant subjects more closely. This could offer better long-range photography compared to relying entirely on digital zoom.

The accessory is still reportedly in the testing phase. There are currently no details about its magnification level or which Reno 17 models will support it.

Previous leaks had also claimed that OPPO was testing a 68-megapixel 1:1 selfie camera for the Reno 17 series.

Reno 17 Series Could Get Dimensity 8600 and Dimensity 9500

The latest reports also points to two different MediaTek chipsets for the Reno 17 lineup. The series is reportedly being tested with the MediaTek Dimensity 8600 and MediaTek Dimensity 9500.

The exact chipset-to-model combination has not been revealed yet but the expected lineup can be summarised as follows:

OPPO Reno 17 Series Expected Launch Timeline

The Reno 17 series is currently tipped to launch in November 2026. If true, this will align with the launch pattern followed in the recent Reno series launches.

The OPPO Reno 15 series launched in November 2025, followed by the Reno 16 series in May 2026. If the latest leak is accurate, the Reno 17 series could arrive in November 2026, while the Reno 18 series is expected to follow in May 2027.

Notably, OPPO has not yet officially announced the Reno 17 series or confirmed its launch date.

OPPO Reno 17 Series Expected Specifications

Based on the latest leaks and previous rumours, the OPPO Reno 17 series is expected to feature a 200MP main camera with gimbal stabilisation. The lineup may also support a dedicated teleconverter accessory, although the accessory is still reportedly being tested and its compatibility and magnification level remain unknown.

The smartphones are expected to use either the MediaTek Dimensity 8600 or Dimensity 9500 chipset, depending on the model. Earlier reports also mentioned a 68MP 1:1 selfie camera but this is now considered unlikely to make it to the final devices.

For now, details such as the display, battery, charging, RAM, storage and complete camera configurations remain unknown. OPPO is yet to officially reveal the Reno 17 series, which means these specifications should be takes with a pinch of salt.

Vivo appears to be preparing another smartphone for its Y series. The upcoming Vivo Y600 5G has been spotted on the Google Play Console database revealing some of its key specifications. The listing also hints that the phone could be a rebranded version of the Vivo V80 Lite 5G sold in Malaysia. Here are more details.

The Vivo Y600 5G has been spotted on Google’s supported devices list with the model number V2655 and device code V2626.

Interestingly, the V2626 device code is also associated with the Malaysian Vivo V80 Lite 5G and the upcoming Vivo S2 FE. The latter is scheduled to launch in India on October 6, 2026. The model number V2655 has also appeared on Google’s supported devices list under the Vivo V80 Lite 5G name. This adds further weight to the possibility that the Y600 5G could be another rebranded version of the same smartphone.

Vivo Y600 5G Specifications Revealed

According to the Google Play Console listing, the Vivo Y600 5G will feature a display with a 1260 × 2800-pixel resolution and a 440 DPI screen density.

The smartphone is listed with the MediaTek MT6858 chipset. The processor configuration includes four Cortex-A78 cores clocked at 2.5GHz and four Cortex-A55 cores running at 2.0GHz. Graphics are handled by a dual-core ARM Mali-G610 GPU with a clock speed of 1GHz.

The Malaysian Vivo V80 Lite 5G is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 7300e, which uses the same CPU clock speeds and comes with the same display resolution mentioned in the Y600 5G listing. This further suggests that the upcoming Vivo phone could use the same chipset.

The Google Play Console listing also mentions Android 16, with SDK 36 along with around 6GB of RAM.

Is Vivo Y600 5G a Rebranded Vivo V80 Lite 5G?

The details currently available suggest a connection between the Vivo Y600 5G and the Malaysian Vivo V80 Lite 5G. The Y600 5G is listed with the V2655 model number and V2626 device code, while the Vivo V80 Lite 5G has also appeared with the V2655/V2626 identifiers.

The hardware information adds to this possibility. The Malaysian Vivo V80 Lite 5G uses a 1260 × 2800-pixel display, which matches the resolution mentioned in the Vivo Y600 5G’s Google Play Console listing. The V80 Lite 5G is also powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 7300e, whose CPU configuration matches the MT6858 information shown for the Y600 5G in the listing.

These similarities strongly suggest that the Vivo Y600 5G could be a rebranded version of the Vivo V80 Lite 5G.

However, Vivo has not officially confirmed that the two smartphones are the same device.

Vivo Y600 5G Global Launch Expected Soon

The Vivo Y600 5G is expected to be the first smartphone in the Y600 series to launch in global markets. While Vivo has not announced a launch date yet, smartphones that appear on the Google Play Console typically launch within the following one or two months.

This suggests that the Vivo Y600 5G could make its official debut soon, although Vivo is yet to confirm its launch details.
