Alongside the Pro model, the company has launched the Oppo F9 smartphone in India, with 4GB RAM and 16-megapixel camera on the back.
He called Oppo F9 Pro's VOOC fast charging technology its biggest feature. He said the smartphone can be charged for five minutes to deliver two hours of talk time. You get 11 percent of battery with five minutes of charging. With 30 minutes charge, you get 57 percent of battery. Oppo F9 Pro's VOOC flash chargers come with five layers of protection, which keeps the smartphone's battery safe even with such a high charging speed, Oppo India claims.
