<p style="text-align: justify;">Oppo brought in the unique swivel camera equipped N1 smartphone when it entered India last year and ever since it has launched interesting smartphones in the country. However all of the smartphones that the company has launched has been met with bad pricing. Yesterday the company announced two new smartphones for the Indian market which offer a uni-body metal finish and a sleek design.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" src="http://bw-image.s3.amazonaws.com/oppo-r7-plus.jpg" style="width: 800px; height: 495px;"></p><p style="text-align: justify;">The R7 Plus is a 6-inch phablet which has a sharp and bright looking full HD (1920x1080) Super AMOLED display, usually seen on Samsung and Microsoft smartphones. Oppo has also used a 2.5D glass over the actual display which has a slight curve on the edges, something what Vivo used on the X5Pro. On the inside there is a Snapdragon 615 octa-core processor with 3GB of RAM, 32GB of storage which can be expanded further with a microSD card. There is a 13MP rear and an 8MP front camera combo, but the USP of the smartphone is the large 4,100mAH battery along with Oppo’s own version of fast charging called VOOC and the fingerprint scanner right underneath the rear camera.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" src="http://bw-image.s3.amazonaws.com/oppo-r7-plus-1.jpg" style="width: 800px; height: 514px;"></p><p style="text-align: justify;">The R7 Lite is a more compact and slim variant which comes with a 5-inch 720p (1280x720) resolution Super AMOLED display with a similar 2.5D glass like its larger brother. This too runs on an octa-core processor but Oppo hasn’t confirmed the manufacturer, so assumingly it is not the Snapdragon chipset. There is 2GB of RAM, 16GB of expandable storage, and the same 13MP rear and 8MP front cameras. The R7 Lite is also quite slim and with the metal body feels quite good in the hand.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" src="http://bw-image.s3.amazonaws.com/oppo-r7-lite.jpg" style="width: 800px; height: 542px;"></p><p style="text-align: justify;">Both of the handsets run on Android 5.1 Lollipop with Oppo’s new and updated Android skin called Colour OS 2.1. Both the handset will also be 4G enabled. However the point to notice here is that both the handsets are variants of the R7 which has not been announced by the company, probably the company is playing it safe. The R7 Plus is priced at Rs. 29,990 and the R7 Lite for Rs. 17,990, which sounds a lot better than what Oppo usually prices its handsets at but still sounds slightly higher for the kind of hardware it offers.</p><p> </p>
