Oppo Android Announcement

This may feel like a bit of a deja vu, but today is the official unveiling of the Oppo F9. It boasts a 90.8% screen to body ratio, its 19.5:9 screen covering most of the front and featuring a small V-shaped notch. That notch houses a 25MP selfie camera with hardware support for HDR.

The other camera, the one on the back, is a 16MP + 2MP dual shooter. The second sensor is used for bokeh effects while the 16MP sensor does most of the work (it has an f/1.8 aperture).

The Oppo F9 is powered by the Helio P60, which specializes in AI tasks. This extends to the camera, of course, with AI Beautification 2.1. The chipset is hooked up to 4GB of RAM (with a 6GB option) and 64GB storage. It runs Color OS 5.2 based on Android 8.1 Oreo.

The screen measures 6.3” in diagonal and has a 2,340 x 1,080px resolution. It’s a LTPS TFT panel that promises a solid 450 nits of brightness. The screen is one of the first to be guarded by Gorilla Glass 6 (along with the Oppo R17).

In mid range mobile samsung is losing grip because of Redmi Note 5 pro, nokia 6, moto g6 plus. And similarly it is losing grip in high end because of oneplus 6 success. There is much less space for Samsung. Terrible treats.
