Oppo India had been prepping the Indian smartphone audience phone for their upcoming handset Oppo F11 Pro for quite some time. However, at the launch event yesterday in Mumbai the company unveiled two smartphones - Oppo F11 and Oppo F11 Pro. Notably Oppo F11 series has been introduced here in India before any other overseas markets.
While both phones pack a punch in terms of features, design and quality, it is the Oppo F11 Pro that stole the limelight at event. The premium of two smartphones, Oppo F11 Pro packs a dual camera setup on the back, which houses a 48-megapixel sensor as the official teasers had suggested. Additionally, Oppo has given the handset full screen look on the front with a pop-up selfie camera and triple colour gradient on the back.
Apart from the above, the company also highlighted the low-light imaging capabilities of the phone and shared details about an Ultra Night Mode on board that is similar to Google’s Night Sight. The Ultra Night Mode uses the company’s AI Ultra-Clear Engine, which intelligently recognizes scenes and optimizes the settings. It also helps in image-stabilization during a long exposure and low-light performance.
Coming to the surprise launch of the event, the Oppo F11 is a watered down version of the Oppo F11 Pro. The handset uses a waterdrop-shaped display notch that houses the selfie camera and misses out on the pop-up camera. It also differs from the Pro-variant in terms of the RAM, on board storage, and the back panel design. However on a brighter side, the Oppo F11 has been priced competitively compared to its elder sibling smartphone.
