Oppo F7 has a 25-megapixel selfie camera with AI integration and face beautification features baked in
Oppo F7 was launched in India on Monday, at an event in Mumbai. The new Oppo F7 smartphone is following the recent trend - popularised by the iPhone X - of sporting a notch on the top of the display to house components like the front camera, earpiece, and proximity sensor in a bezel-less display design. The key Oppo F7 specifications include 6.23-inch Full-Screen 2.0 display with a 19:9 aspect ratio, a 25-megapixel front camera with real-time HDR, AI Beauty 2.0 app, Android 8.1 Oreo, and the App-in-App multi-tasking feature, all of which can be considered the highlights of the smartphone. The new smartphone will compete against the likes of Vivo V9, Moto X4, and Honor 8 Pro in the Indian market.
The Oppo F7 price in India has been set at Rs. 21,990, and it will be available to buy via online and offline stores from April 9 in Solar Red, Moonlight Silver, and Diamond Black colour variants with 4GB RAM and 64GB of inbuilt storage. The company has also launched special edition variants in Diamond Black and Solar Red, which feature 6GB of RAM and 128GB of inbuilt storage, and have been priced at Rs. 26,990. The special edition variants will only be available via select Oppo stores, and no availability for these has been announced.
Oppo is also holding a flash sale on April 2 at 777 Oppo stores across the country - only the 4GB RAM and 64GB storage variants will be available. Buyers during the flash sale will get 5 percent cashback on purchases through ICICI credit cards. Users will also get an additional 120GB 4G data from Jio and and up to Rs. 1,200 cashback in 12 months, apart from a one-time free screen replacement within one year from the company's authorised service centres.
The dual-SIM (Nano) Oppo F7 runs ColorOS 5.0, based on Android 8.1 Oreo. The smartphone bears a 6.23-inch full-HD+ (1080x2280 pixels) Full Screen 2.0 display with a 19:9 aspect ratio. It is powered by a 64-bit MediaTek Helio P60 octa-core SoC coupled with either 4GB or 6GB of RAM depending on the variant.

The company is also touting the AI Beauty 2.0 app which scans 296 facial recognition points - a 20 percent improvement from the first-generation technology, the company says, allowing for more precise and accurate facial recognition capabilities. Oppo adds that the app can now detect a person's age, gender, skin colour, and skin type differences for up to four individual subjects in much greater detail.
The smartphone comes with 64GB or 128GB of inbuilt storage depending on the variant, expandable via microSD card (up to 256GB) with its own dedicated card slot.
