OPPO is currently one of FC Barcelona’s official partner and it gives the Chinese smart phone maker great visibility over at Camp Nou. To celebrate its 3 year partnership, OPPO has introduced its R7 Plus FC Barcelona Edition, clad with the Catalan’s football team insignia.
Just like the standard OPPO R7 Plus, the FC Barcelona Edition shares the same internals with a large 6.0″ Full HD AMOLED display. Underneath, it runs on Qualcomm’s Octa-Core Snapdragon 615 processor mated with 3GB of RAM. From the presentation earlier, China will be getting the 64GB storage option while the rest of the world appears to be getting the 32GB version. For storage expansion, this dual-SIM phablet supports microSD cards up to 128GB which utilises its 2nd SIM slot.
It still gets a 13MP Sony IMX278 camera at the back with dual-tone LED flash and an ultra-quick laser AF while selfies are taken with its front facing 8MP camera. Powering the device is a huge 4,100mAh capacity battery that supports VOOC Flash Charging. According to OPPO, a quick 5 minutes charge can deliver up to 2 hours of talk time. The back of the R7 Plus also comes with a fingerprint scanner which lets you unlock quickly in a single touch.
Apart from having a FC Barcelona logo engraved at the back, it comes well kitted with additional goodies including a FC Barcelona leather case, water bottle, VOOC Power bank and a selfie stick. There’s also 5 OPPO R7 Plus units autographed by Lionel Messi, Andres Iniesta and Dani Alves which will be sold through a charity auction on ebay.
In China, the 64GB OPPO R7 Plus FC Barcelona Edition is going for 3,999 CNY (about RM2,726) while the 32GB version is priced at US$549 (about RM2,383). Sales in China starts today while the rest of the world would follow shortly within this month. For more info, you can check out the OPPO R7 Plus FC Barcelona product page.
