OPPO Realme 1 Released Exclusively For Indian Market

Previously, OPPO has had only three smartphone series including F, R, and A. But they are not enough for competing with other manufacturers in such markets as India. As you know, Xiaomi is an absolute leader here with a market share exceeding 30%. And there is no reason to think this manufacturer will yield its positions because it leads the Indian smartphone market for 3 quarters in a row. To change something there, the manufacturer has created a new smartphone line named Realme. A few days ago we learned the first phone from this family will be the OPPO Realme 1. Today, as scheduled, the phone was officially unveiled.

OPPO doesn’t hide its intentions concerning the mission of the OPPO Realme 1. It’s been made with a single purpose in mind – to beat the Xiaomi Redmi handsets and grab the first position in the second largest market in the world. Therefore, this handset should come with a stylish look, powerful hardware, and budget-friendly pricing.

To get sure every OPPO Realme 1 unit works properly, the manufacturer has passed through 18 motherboard quality tests, over 100.000 drop tests, and multiple humidity and temperature tests.

As for the configuration, the OPPO Realme 1 is packed with a 6-inch Full HD+ full-screen with an aspect ratio of 18:9, MediaTek Helio P60 chip (the first SoC of the Taiwanese chip maker with AI), 13MP rear camera, 8MP front shooter, 3400mAh battery, and various memory options. Unfortunately, there is no fingerprint scanner.

As said, there are many memory combinations you can choose from: 3+32GB costs 8,990 Indian rupees ($132); 4+64GB is available at 10,990 Indian rupees ($162); and 6+128GB is priced at 13,990 Indian rupees ($206).
