Coming to the optics, it has a triple rear camera setup. There’s a 12MP camera (f/1.5-2.4), 20MP (f/1.6) camera, and the third one is a ‘Time of Flight’ (TOF) 3D sensing camera, for taking more depth, allowing the users to add more effects. When it comes to the front camera, the phone has a 25MP lens (f/2.0) for taking amazing, great selfies.

Connectivity includes dual-SIM 4G VoLTE, Bluetooth v5.0, Wi-Fi, GPS, NFC, and the Type-C port. The fingerprint sensor is under the display itself.

Android platform is of Oreo 8.1, skinned in Oppo’s own ColorOS 5.2, while the durability is taken care of by a 3,700mAh capacity battery. The famous SuperVOOV Flash Charging support is also there, which can boost it from 0-40% in just 10 minutes!
