Nowadays, one of the most important things that people consider before buying their next smartphone is the camera. This is why, most of the smartphones boast of the camera – OPPO is no stranger to this, as their first phone to launch this year, sports of being the “Selfie Expert” – the OPPO F1.
OPPO F1 has an 8-megapixel front camera with a f/2.0 aperture. This will be able to capture more light, needed for better quality selfies.
Aside from the front-camera hardware, it comes with Beauty 3.0+ and eight various filters, which brighten the skin and remove blemishes, and a display that can double as flash in low-light environments. Both the camera’s hardware and software work together as if the OPPO F1 has a built-in styling team that will glam the user up in no time.
The rear camera is a 13-megapixel sensor, f/2.2 aperture lens, Pure Image 2.0+ features, and a number of customizations to fit the user’s photo needs.

The first in OPPO’s new camera-focused F series, the F1, was designed with the elegant aesthetic and quality that has become the brand’s staple.
