Mumbai: Chinese smartphone maker Oppo has debuted its new F series smartphones, which has photography as its central focus, in India today. The Oppo F1 is the first of Oppo's F series phones to arrive in India.
Priced at Rs 15,990, the F1's key highlight is its 8 megapixel front camera with a wide f/2.0 aperture lens and a sensor size of 1/4 inch. If the company's claims are believed to be believed, its front camera can capture photos 30 per cent clearer than a standard 5 megapixel camera and 44 per cent brighter than those taken with an f/2.4 lens.

With the aim to help users take even better selfies in low-light conditions, the Oppo F1 has been equipped with a screen flash feature that converts the F1's entire display into a camera flash.
The body of the F1 is made of a metal alloy. It features a 5-inch 720p display with Corning Gorilla Glass 4 atop, and a 13 megapixel rear camera.
At its heart is a Qualcomm Snapdragon octa-core 64-bit processor coupled with 3 GB of RAM. The dual-SIM phone runs Android 5.1-based ColorOS 2.1 and includes an internal storage space of 16 GB. The phone also supports a microSD card of up to 128 GB.
