Oppo F7 Specifications

Oppo F7 price in India 2018 And Availability

With Rs 21,990, you will have 6GB of storage and 4GB of RAM. Oppo F7 128GB and 6GB will set you back Rs 26,990.

Oppo F7 can be found on Paytm, Flipkart, and Amazon, as well as Oppo stores. The phone we review here is in Solar Red but you have the choice to acquire it in Platinum Silver and Diamond Black.

The cheapest price of Oppo F7 Flipkart is Rs. 18,990 for the 4GB/64GB variant.

Unlike other offers from the company, the phone does not come with Oppo F7 Pro nor Oppo F7 Plus.

Design And Display

Oppo F7 price in India 2018 is Rs 21,990 and since the phone is in the mid-range price bracket, it does not look too cheap nor too premium. What might bother most users is the choice of Oppo to use glossy plastic to exude the look of a glass back, which will show all of the fingerprints you leave on it.

While you can throw it into your bag with keys and wallets, or purses and the phone still comes out intact, you might want to be careful with it as the front and back are quite vulnerable to external forces.

The fingerprint sensor lies on the same side with the primary camera on the back. At the bottom, you will find a 3.5mm headphone jack and a MicroUSB port.

Oppo F7 has the aspect ratio of 19:9 and if you want to run apps that are not compatible with this ratio, the phone gives you the choice to force them to open in fullscreen.

The 6.23-inch display makes for an immersive content viewing but it also means that the phone is far from being compact.

Performance And Software

Oppo F7 price in India 2018 is Rs 21,990 for 4GB/64GB variant and Rs 26,990 for the 6GB/128GB. Both versions run on Android Oreo 8.1 with ColorOS 5.0 on top.

ColorOS is not the best choice for software and overall, it feels a little clunky. For example, with phones running vanilla Android, you can swipe left to delete a notification, but on the Oppo F7, users have to go through another step of tapping on the Delete choice.

This phone shares the same processor with Oppo R15, the MediaTek Helio P60 although Oppo F7 price is cheaper. Both face unlock and fingerprint sensor are pretty quick in logging you into the phone.

Oppo also offers its own security keyboard on top of the Gboard, which promises to keep whatever users type secret. The keyboard might be more secure but it cannot rival the built-in Gboard when it comes to functionality.

The one-screen navigation can be confusing to use so you might want to switch back to gestures.

Gamers might find the Oppo F7 a decent smartphone to play with, given Oppo F7 price in India 2018. It offers a choice to disable notification and the Game Acceleration Mode to optimize the device for better gaming experience.

Battery

Vivo V9 vs Oppo F7, the latter has a better battery and you can have a full day of use. There is no fast charging option on this phone, which is a shame as the default charge is slow.

Camera

Oppo F7 is entirely mediocre, except for the cameras, which might make you doubt that it is worth it paying for Oppo F7 price in India 2018.

On the front, you have a 25MP/ f/2.2 selfie snapper. On the other side, there is a 16MP/ f/1.8 camera. Oppo advertises itself as a selfie expert and the front camera can attest. The AI Beauty feature calculates how much adjustment it must apply without making the picture looks too processed.

In most cases, the results are satisfying but on the off chance that you are not happy with what the AI did, you can manually choose how much beautification the phone applies on the picture. That is a huge plus for those who love selfies as with Oppo F7 price in India 2018, it sounds like a bargain for a decent phone.

The rear camera performs well in well-lit environments but tends to overexpose the shots taken in low light.

Macro shots are another highlight with edges focused and details look clear. The same cannot be said about the digital zoom as all of the clarity is lost. There is no image stabilization so even the slightest movement can affect the quality of the shot.

In the expert mode, user have the choice to manually change white balance, shutter speeds, and ISO.

Oppo F7 price in India 2018 puts it in the over 20k segment, which makes it weird for the phone to have no choice to record 4K videos.

Verdict

The F7 is no way a bad phone but it depends on personal preference to justify whether the Rs 21,990 Oppo F7 price in India is worth it. The camera is better than those of Moto X4 and Vivo V9 but the clunky ColorOS and keyboard are serious setbacks.

For those who want to keep their handset clean, you might find yourself wipe the phone more than you use it.

Oppo F7 price in India 2018 makes it a hard sale for anyone who is not a fan of selfie.
