VIDEO: OPPO R17 Pro unboxed in the sky

The OPPO R17 Pro is launching in Malaysia this week and this is OPPO’s new premium mid-range smartphone that comes with a triple-camera setup. Ahead of its arrival, we had a chance to unbox the R17 Pro at 45 metres in the sky. 

To recap, the OPPO R17 Pro features a 6.4″ Full HD+ display that comes with a tiny waterdrop notch. The display has an aspect ratio of 19.5:9 with a 91.% screen to body ratio. For a clean look at the rear, the R17 Pro features an in-display fingerprint sensor. 

Under the hood, it is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 710 processor with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. For imaging, it has a 12MP main camera with a variable aperture of f/1.5-f/2.4 which is similar to the Galaxy Note9.

There’s also a secondary 20MP f2/.6 shooter and a third sensor that’s dedicated for 3D depth sensing. It front it has a 25MP selfie camera that comes with a host of AI beautification features. One of the main camera highlights is its Ultra Night Mode which allows you to take a long exposure shots handheld. This is somewhat similar to Huawei’s Night Mode on their latest flagships. 

The R17 Pro packs a 3,700mAh battery which supports OPPO’s new Super VOOC flash charging technology. OPPO claims that the 50W charger is able to push 40% charge in just 10 minutes on the cable. Out of the box, it runs on Android 8.1 Oreo with ColorOS 5.2 skin on top. 

The OPPO R17 Pro Malaysian launch is taking place on 22 November 2018. Looking at China’s pricing (4,299CNY), we are expecting this device to be priced above RM2,500.
