Oppo has recently announced the two latest entries to its Gen-Z-focused F series. Compared to its predecessor Oppo F15 that was launched in January this year, the Oppo F17 series consists of Smartphones with a thinner form factor and with more features.

Design and Display

Both smartphones have are under 7.5 mm thick and weigh just over 160g. They come with curved edges and a design that takes after the iPhone 11.

Both are built around a 6.43-inch AMOLED panel with 1080p+ resolution, 20:9 aspect ratio, and 60 Hz refresh rate. No high refresh rate for either model.

Internals and Storage

Cameras

The Pro model sports a similar camera configuration, except the main camera is a 48 MP ½ inch sensor with f/1.8 aperture.

The AI algorithm of the smartphone is tweaked to take fun portraits. They can simulate bokeh with big, bright flares or make the background black and white, leaving only you in color.

At the front, the Oppo F17 comes with a 16 MP single sensor setup for selfies while the Pro model sports a dual 16 MP + 2 MP setup.
