Oppo may be preparing another smartphone built around extreme battery life, as a new device appears to have cleared regulatory approval in China. The latest report points to an Oppo model with a battery large enough to be rounded up as 12,000mAh, hinting that the company is expanding its focus on long-endurance handsets beyond its recent A-series releases.
The device, listed under the model number PNC110, is said to have obtained certification from China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, or MIIT. The approval suggests the phone may be close to a launch, though more specifications remain undisclosed.
The certification information does not directly state a 12,000mAh battery size. However, the file metadata reportedly references an 11,460mAh cell, which Oppo could package or advertise as a 12,000mAh battery to appeal to users seeking multi-day usage.
Other details from the listing are limited, but the report notes that the phone will support dual-SIM 5G connectivity. There is no confirmation yet about its display, chipset, camera setup, charging speed, or expected market name.
The upcoming handset may belong to Oppo’s A-series, a line that already includes battery-focused options. Oppo recently introduced the A7 Pro Max with a 10,000mAh battery, and a larger 11,460mAh model could position PNC110 as an even more endurance-oriented sibling.
At this stage, the information remains based on certification details and source reports. Additional confirmation will likely be needed before the phone’s final name, pricing, and global availability are known.
