OPPO Phones are synonymous with being selfie technology pioneers in the smartphone industry. However, with their cutting-edge software, beautiful aesthetics, and power-packed performance, OPPO phones prove that they’re not just one-trick ponies. It’s natural to assume that their latest phone - the R17/R17 Pro would be the most well-rounded, and dismiss the rest.
But the array of options you get to choose from the whole OPPO smartphone lineup begs to differ. So, if OPPO phones are in your radar but you can’t seem to decide which one fits the bill for you, here’s a quick run-through of the best OPPO phones on the market today.
The triple rear 20MP camera setup truly shines in low-light conditions with its F1.5/F2.4 Smart Aperture that intelligently adjusts to adapt to different light levels. Elevate your selfies to the next level with the 25MP AI Beauty Front Camera that offers 8 fun configurable modes at your disposal.
Create mesmerizing videos with its ability to record and edit videos up to 4K resolution at 30 fps on the primary camera, and 1080p for the selfie camera – with colour correction and beautification options to boot. To top it off, storing memory-consuming video files will be the least of your worries with the generous 128 GB of local storage offered.
At the heart of the OPPO Find X, you’ll find the powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 making you glide through your day-to-day apps and tasks like they’re nothing. In collaboration with Dirac, the Find X audio system has settings to enhance the volume and bass of the speaker, and also tools to optimize the headphone experience.
Its innovative sliding camera trick is not the only feature that will turn heads. The Find X is host to a stunning 6.42” inch AMOLED display that flaunts vibrant colours along with striking contrast.
Present yourself in your best light with the “Selfie Expert”, Oppo F7. With the front camera touting a whopping 25 megapixels and its embedded Sensor HDR, get ready for some self-portraits with impeccable details. The camera is also powered by another feature known as the AI Beauty Technology 2.0 which simply put, intelligently beautifies your pictures without the all-too-common dilemma of appearing overly processed. To top it off, the phone is run by the power-efficient Mediatek Helio P60 that can handle any task, be it single or multi-core.
The R15 Pro is the perfect medium for your cashless paying habit as it supports Near Field Communication (NFC). Besides that, the 128GB internal storage with a microSD slot offered on the Oppo R15 is basically a steal at this price range. As far as security is concerned, the R15 Pro not only supports a fast and reliable facial recognition system, but there’s also a fingerprint reader on the back if that’s more of your cup of tea. As a cool little bonus, the phone even has an IP67 water resistance rating.
OPPO smartphones are not traditionally known for their gaming potential, but the OPPO F9 challenges the norm by proving it can support mid-tier gaming demands. With the extra room provided by the stunningly designed waterdrop notch, games are more enjoyable as you have ample space for the control keys and the game itself.
The F9 also offers a feature called “Game Space” which comes with settings to enable vivid game graphics and smoothness optimization. A nice little addition is the ability to bring up the Game Space sidebar while in the midst of gaming to have access to features like notification banners blocking, call rejecting, screenshots taking, and screen recording.
If the notch display look strikes your fancy, then check out the wallet-friendly OPPO A3s. Under the hood, the phone comes with a beast of a 4230 mAh battery that you would be hard pressed to find even in premium smartphones. On standby, the battery juice can last you up to a massive 18 hours. Step up your Instagram game with the dual rear camera setup on the A3s. It consists of a 13MP primary sensory and a 2MP secondary sensor - great for oh-so-trendy bokeh shots!
Beautiful and vibrant selfies are at your fingertips with the AI-backed 20 MP front camera on the OPPO F5. Even without the dual front camera setup, you can achieve the depth effect to make your face “pop” even in pictures. For sharp and refined selfies, the AI Mode accentuates your facial landmarks to enhance the symmetry between your facial feature, while still delivering natural-looking images.
