In this era of convergence of technology, the smartphone industry has been witnessing a boom, as we are rarely out of something new in terms of hardware and software. There are numerous players in the market, but only a few have managed to maintain a perfect balance between top-end hardware tuned to support a smooth software experience, and OPPO is one of the major manufacturers that have been reasonably consistent with the design, experience, and pricing of their product.
OPPO recently launched F15 in India, which is also the first phone from the company in 2020. The OPPO F15 makes up for a tempting option for its price, more so, because it ticks all the checkboxes that a youngster looks for in a phone.
The first thing that makes it an alluring device for the youth is its beautiful 7.9mm sleek and lightweight. While it’s slim, it weighs just 172 grams making it very comfortable to grab in your palm. Even if you’re wearing a fitted trouser, this won’t add much bulge to your pockets. Not just that, it looks stunning and feels very comfortable to use with one hand. Its back panel has a gradient finish and the color shift looks very elegant.
OPPO F15 has a 6.4-inch full FHD + AMOLED screen with 2340 x 1080p resolution. The display comes with an aspect ratio of 20:9 that has 90.7% screen to body ratio. It is Widevine certified as well, which means users can watch HD content on OTT apps like Netflix on that immersive front.
OPPO F15 also takes care of your eyes. It has the technology of DC screen dimming 2.0 certified by TÜV Rheinland which protects your eyes even in low light.
If you’re concerned about photography, OPPO F15's 48 MP AI quad-camera setup won’t disappoint you. Its 48MP camera with an ultra-wide-angle macro lens is fully capable of getting closer to the subject without losing details. The 48MP rear sensor is designed in such a way that it can capture sharp and high-quality images with clarity and ample detail.
OPPO F15 also makes the experience of taking large area or group photos great. Its 8MP ultra-wide-angle lens allows you to capture images at 119 degrees and take good portrait shots with bokeh effect to capture breath-taking images. Moreover, you can adjust the bokeh effect after a picture is clicked.
The cameras aren’t just impressive, OPPO F15 clicks very good low-light pictures, making it a perfect companion to those who like to go out and explore the bright side of the night.
OPPO F15 comes with AI (Artificial Intelligence) based smart beautification that helps in identifying the gender and age and enhances the photos accordingly.
Apart from still photography, OPPO has also improved video capabilities on this one as it comes with a special anti-shake video feature that allows smartphone users to get professional-grade video results.
OPPO F15 also packs 8GB RAM and 128GB internal storage and is powered by an octa-core MediaTek Helio P70 processor, which is known for fast operations and multitasking.
Another impressive feature of this phone is its in-display fingerprint 3.0 sensor which unlocks the phone in just 0.32 seconds.
OPPO F15 has a 4,000mAh battery that can sail you throughout the day on a single charge. For super fast charging, it has the support of VOOC Flash Charge 3.0 which charges your phone in a jiffy with proper safety. A feature custom made for the faster generation that likes to do everything on the go.
OPPO F15 runs Android 9 Pie-based ColorOS 6.1.2. The operating system has been upgraded to several smart features. These features will improve the overall user experience of the phone. The company has done some major tweaking to make it feel smoother and convenient for all kinds of users.
