Professional Quality Photos Right at Your Fingertips

OPPO PH launches its Selfie Expert, the OPPO F1


Global electronics and technology service provider OPPO locally launched their first phone of the year, the OPPO F1.




Boasting an amazing front camera, the F1 has been dubbed the “Selfie Expert”, thanks to its mix of hardware and software working together to make every selfie fantastic.  This was emphasized during the launch, with the event setup designed similar to that of a photography studio as guests were given free use of the F1.

Built-in Styling Team
At 8 megapixels, the OPPO F1’s front camera has an 84-degree-wide angle camera lens with f/2.0 aperture, and a ¼-inch sensor that allows 40 percent more light to enter the camera than an f/2.4 aperture lens. 

It comes with Beauty 3.0+ and eight various filters, which brighten the skin and remove blemishes, and a display that can double as flash in low-light environments.  Both the camera’s hardware and software work together as if the OPPO F1 has a built-in styling team that will glam the user up in no time.

The rear camera is equally amazing, with a 13-megapixel sensor, f/2.2 aperture lens, Pure Image 2.0+ features, and a number of customizations to fir the user’s photo needs.

Exquisite Design and Reliable Performance
The first in OPPO’s new camera-focused F series, the F1, was designed with the elegant aesthetic and quality that has become the brand’s staple.

Available in two colors, Gold and Rose Gold the F1’s design offers durability and style.  The fine and delicate smoothening of zircon and sand blasting create a back cover that has a velvet-like softness despite being made of metal.  The 5-inch HD screen is protected by a 2.5D Corning Gorillas Glass coating and aluminum housing.


Under the hood is power-packed octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 616 SoC with four cores at 1.7GHz and four cores at 1.2GHz, Adreno 204 GPU, and 3GB RAM that runs OPPO’s ColorOS 2.1 as smoothly as possible.
