Oppo F15 Blazing Blue Colour Variant Teased, May Launch Next Week

Oppo F15 is getting a new colour option in India, over five months after its launch in two colours - Lightning Black and Unicorn White. The new Blazing Blue colour variant of Oppo F15 has been teased by the company in a promo video on its YouTube channel. The same variant has also popped up on retailer Croma's website ahead of the official announcement and the listing shows the new variant as out of stock right now.

Being a new colour option, the Blazing Blue edition of Oppo F15 will just don new hue but everything else will remain same as the previously launched variants of the phone, something that Croma listing also confirmed.
