OnePlus 6T killer OPPO R17 Pro launched in India with triple rear-cameras
After launching in global markets earlier this year, OPPO has finally launched the R17 Pro in India. This premium mid-range handset features a new gradient design with innovative technologies to bring users a smartphone that meets their everyday needs.
The R17 Pro comes with a 6.4-inch 19:5:9 FHD+ display that features an impressive 91.5 per cent screen-to-body ratio as it features OPPO’s waterdrop notch. The front camera of the R17 Pro is at the middle of the water droplet giving the consumer a higher screen to body ratio experience. The R17 Pro is the first device to use Corning’s Gorilla Glass 6 and comes with 8GB RAM along with 128GB of onboard storage which is expandable up to 256GB more via a microSD card. The Corning Gorilla Glass 6 is able to withstand a drop from a one-metre height to a rough surface for an average 15 times, which is double that of the Gorilla Glass 5 performance. The device is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 710 processor and supports Android 8.1 ColorOS 5.2. The handset comes with an in-display fingerprint scanner which OPPO has termed as “Hidden Fingerprint Unlock.”
As far as optics go, the R17 Pro comes with a triple rear camera configuration. It comes with a 12MP shooter that boasts a variable aperture from f/1.5 to f/2.4 and a 1.4-micron pixel size. The second sensor found on the rear is 20MP that comes with a f/2.6 aperture while the third lens comes with a TOF 3D stereo camera that helps with depth sensing. The triple-camera configuration comes with optical image stabilisation, Dual Pixel PDAF and an Ultra-Night mode that uses AI technology that helps to get the best out of low-light photography. The front-facing selfie camera features a 25MP sensor with a f/2.0 aperture. It comes with a beautification mode that uses machine learning based on the preferences of the user.
The handset is kept alive by a 3700mAh battery that supports SuperVOOC Flash charge technology. The technology enables R17 Pro users to charge 40 per cent of their battery in almost 10 minutes and is OPPO’s solution to consumer’s need for a quick charging technology.
The OPPO R17 Pro is priced at Rs 45,990 will be available to consumers for pre-order starting from December 4, and will go on sale from December 7 onwards.
