OPPO has launched their new smartphone in the A-series as the A83. The highlights of the device are an 18:9 aspect ratio display and face unlock feature. Yes, the smartphone has no fingerprint scanner but it purely conveys the public that they have copied the Apple’s latest flagship, iPhone X, even though they had space to keep the fingerprint scanner.
Speaking about the launch, Will Yang, Brand Director, OPPO India, said:
Our focus has always been on bringing best photography and Selfie experience to the Indian consumers. We have received an immense response for our Selfie Expert A Series and F Series. With the A83 we wish to bring an affordable selfie camera with advance features such as the HD + Full Screen Display and AI Beauty Technology. The A83 truly represents our ambition to continue being the Selfie Expert and Leader in the market.
