As expected, OPPO has officially showcased their new R15 and R15 Dream Mirror. And it looks like the rumors have taken a shape here. Both phones pack a gorgeous screen, a notch, and revamped cameras.
OPPO R15
The OPPO R15 has a 6.28-inch OLED screen with 18:9 aspect ratio and of course a notch. The resolution is FullHD, i.e. 2280 x 1080 pixel, while the body is made up of glass at the rear and metal at the side. This certainly will scream premium while you get a hands on the phone.
Inside is the MediaTek Helio P60 chipset with an octa-core CPU, while the memory intensive tasks will be handled by a 6GB of RAM. There’s an ample 128GB of internal storage and a decent 3,450mAh battery with VOOC charging.
Alongside the refreshed glass back, changes can also be seen in the form of cameras. The dual-camera setup comprises of 16MP Sony IMX519 primary sensor with f/1.7 aperture, while the second is a 5MP one with the f/2.2 lens. The rear camera is capable of recognizing up to 120 scenes and add pro lighting effects with portrait mode, all thanks to Sony’s AI.
Like its back, the R15 has an equally powerful front camera. OPPO, being a selfie expert, has never compromised their selfie camera and it is no different here. It shines a 20MP front camera with f/2.0 aperture, whereas the support for bokeh effects is also there.
The OPPO R15 can be purchased in Snow White, Hot Red, and Star Purple color option for $473.
