Oppo's VP resigns amid rumors of building an online brand with Cyanogen Inc.

Recent years saw the birth of many new online brands in China, with Xiaomi being the most notable one with its complete ecosystem on top of aggressive pricing. And at last, it looks like local competitor Oppo wants a share of that pie as well. According to a rumor from just before the weekend, the company’s VP Pete Lau (pictured above) will be developing a new online brand from scratch, and its first product will feature top hardware specs along with CyanogenMod — the same renowned Android ROM that’s headed to Oppo’s flagship N1 and Find 5. More interestingly, Lau has just announced that today’s his last day at Oppo.
