Oppo F7 smartphone will soon launch in India, featuring a full-screen display and an iPhone X-like notch. The company has already started sharing teasers for the upcoming Oppo F7 smartphone. Oppo F7 is said to be a selfie-centric smartphone like the previous-generation Oppo F5, Oppo F5 Plus.
In its tweet, Oppo also shared the company’s new brand ambassador for Oppo F7, who is likely to be cricketer Hardik Pandya. Based on the teaser image, it seems evident that the Oppo F7 will have a “notch” at the top and the screen takes up a large amount of the front of the handset. The Chinese company is yet to share details about the device, including its specifications and features.
Oppo F7 appears to share an uncanny resemblance to the previous Oppo R15, if we look closely. The latter smartphone is also rumoured to feature an iPhone X-like notch above the display and a full-screen display. Oppo R15 is expected to launch in China in the coming days. GSM Arenaspeculates that the Oppo F7 will sport a 6.2-inch Full HD+ display with an aspect of 19:9 aspect ratio, and a 25MP front-facing camera with AR features.
Many also believe that the Oppo F7 will be either powered by a Snapdragon 670 processor or the MediaTek Helio P6 chipset. Additionally, it is likely to be based on Color OS 4.0, which is based on Android Oreo. Oppo F7 is speculated to launch on March 26 in India, although exact details are thin on the ground.
It was Apple that started a trend with the iPhone X to have a “notch” above the display. At Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, a number of smartphone companies showcased their phones that looked like an iPhone X. Asus has blatantly copied the iPhone X, though the company says the notch on the ZenFone 5Z is 25 per cent smaller. Newly leaked images suggest the OnePlus 6 could also mimic an iPhone X-like design and a glass body. Even Google has embraced the notch in Android P, the next version of Android mobile OS.
