OPPO R11 Price, Specs, Official Press Photos, Dual Camera Features

As the 2017 follow-up to the best-selling OPPO R9 and R9s, a lot rests on the shoulders of the OPPO R11. For one, it's practically the one release that's expected to continue giving the brand tremendous success in key markets -- especially in China where OPPO is now the number one handset seller.

That's said, what's great is that - from the looks of it - OPPO R11 has what it takes to capture the interest of millions of mobile consumers. From its looks to its internal hardware, from its imaging capabilities to its graphics performance, this model has enough amazing selling points to give its competitors this year a big run for money.

OPPO R11 is now up for pre-order in China. The handset is available in three classy colors, namely, Gold, Rose Gold, and Matte Black.

As you can see in these official press photos, the device is amazingly slim and flaunts a design language with visually-arresting yet understated elegance. The shell is of unibody form and features rather inconspicuous antenna bands.

On the outside, the handset sports a near-bezel-less 5.5-inch Full HD AMOLED display protected by 2.5D Curved Gorilla Glass 5 touchscreen, a Fingerprint Scanner lining the home button, and a Dual Rear Camera module, which is the biggest selling point of this model.

This Dual Camera module consists of 20 MegaPixel optic plus a secondary 16 MegaPixel lens that work together to give OPPO R11 two times optical zoom similar to that of the Apple iPhone 7 Plus. Also, this set-up allows this cameraphone to deliver portraits with interesting depth-of-field or bokeh effect, wherein the background of the subject is beautifully blurred.

Under the hood, OPPO R11 runs its ColorOS-skinned Android 7.1.1 Nougat operating system with a 64-Bit Octa-Core 2.2 GHz Kryo 260 and Adreno 512 GPU based Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 processor, has 4GB of RAM, and comes with 64GB of expandable storage. In this set, the chipset is the most impressive as it is one of the more powerful and more updated upper midrange SoCs from Qualcomm.

OPPO R11 will be officially launched in China within this month - June 2017 - with an SRP of 3,295 Chinese Yuan or $485 USD. No word yet on its availability in other key territories including the Philippines. Stay tuned for updates!
