Oppo F1s Full Specifications, Price And Review
Oppo might not sound like a smart phone name to us but realy its a nie smart phone that brings to us one of the smart that is good for selfie. Oppo F1s is a new phablet with a different take on one of the smartphone industry’s biggest selling points: the camera. This device has a better front-facing camera than its rear one
Oppo F1s design and build quality
The design of the Oppo F1s will hold your attention only briefly. It might look oddly similar to an iPhone 6s Plus, and that’s because it is. On the front you’ll find a fingerprint sensor which doubles as a clickable home button, front-facing camera and capacitive navigation buttons. On the bottom is a headphone jack, mono speaker grille (although there is a passive secondary grille) and a micro-USB port.
On the right side is a sleep/wake button below the dual-SIM tray, which also has room for a micro-SD card. All three cards can be used simultaneously. To the left side is a volume rocker and on top is a microphone port. On the rear is a 13 MP camera lens, sitting almost completely flush with the metal panel, alongside a flashlight. This flash is surprisingly weak and, while it does the job, is one of the least luminescent smartphone flashes I’ve ever used.
So we’re dealing with another iPhone-inspired design. When I first held the F1s, it felt cheap and hacked together. This initial impression faded the more I used the device. It is, objectively speaking, a mid-range phone and provides no ‘sense of occasion’ while you use it. It’s not premium – but it doesn’t set out to be. While you might not mind, there are small design decisions that suggest build quality was a secondary consideration for Oppo.
Oppo F1s camera
Oppo calls the F1s a “Selfie expert”. Although it sounds a bit awkward, the point behind this is that the front-facing camera was intended to be the standout feature of the device. I tested both cameras in a variety of situations to see how they compared. Let’s look at the rear camera to start off.
It has a 13 MP sensor with an aperture of f/2.2, coupled with an LED flash. The first thing you’ll notice when you load up the camera app is how similar it looks to the iOS camera app. It’s essentially a copy. But, moving beyond that, the rear camera itself is capable of snapping some decent photos. I found that depth of field was pretty good and I was able to isolate objects easily while taking macro shots.
Oppo F1s battery
Oppo F1s battery life is good, aided by the phone’s lower performance capabilities and display resolution. It has a 3075 mAh battery and will net you around a day to a day-and-a-half of normal usage. While Oppo claims that ColorOS 3.0 has in-built power-saving technology, this phone really should have Android Marshmallow and, with it, Doze mode. I could see battery life extending a little bit further when the update is released.
I ran a battery benchmark in AnTuTu tester. The Oppo F1s scored 6798 points, which is above average when compared to a lot of the other devices we’ve run battery tests on. But benchmarking aside, I found battery life to be better than what you’d expect from a lot of phones nowadays. It lasted for more than a day during regular usage, which is a big plus if you’ve grown tired of all the turbocharged, battery-annihilating flagships out there. This is the plus-side of average specs – better battery life.
