In a League of its Own

Since the past decade, the evolution of cell phone cameras has been very significant in photography. We have gradually begun to be dependent on these tiny devices to capture our everyday moments—your first day at college, a night out with your new friends, or your first birthday party at the new office. So, when one thinks of investing in such a personal device, they ensure that the phone is perfect. After all, it is a crucial investment, and the device should meet the expectations of the users. Since its genesis in 2004, OPPO has been promising this. The company has grown to become one of the strongest competitors in the market that offers state-of-the-art phones, at great prices. OPPO ensures that their path-breaking technology, coupled with a classy, sleek design, delivers impeccable service and user experience. This tradition is now being carried forward by the recently launched OPPO F17 Pro.

An incredibly stylish device, the OPPO F17 Pro features six remarkable AI portraits cameras. On the rear, it includes an impressive set-up of quad cameras—a 48MP f/1.7 Samsung GM1ST main camera, an 8MP f/2.2 Hynix Hi846 wide-angle camera, and two 2MP f/2.2 GalaxyCore GC02M1B Mono cameras. On the front, it houses the first-ever dual camera setup in the F series—a 16MP f/2.4 Sony IMX 471 camera and a 2MP f/2.5 GC02M1B depth sensor camera. Each of the cameras are quite marvellous and deliver spectacular images, akin to professional-looking studio portraits.
