Oppo F21 Pro series launch date is out! Check out the details here - Prune

The Chinese smartphone maker Oppo recently revealed on its Twitter handle that it will launch the new F-series smartphones, following the launch of the F19 lineup last year. The Poco F21 Pro series will debut in India on April 12, 2022. It includes two models - Oppo F21 Pro and Oppo F21 Pro 5G. However, there's no news about the much-talked-about Pro+ model yet.

The company has announced striking colour options for the F21 series ahead of the live online event. The Oppo F21 Pro will have Cosmic Black and Sunset Orange colour variants, while the Oppo F21 Pro 5G will have Cosmic Black and Rainbow Spectrum colour variants. The Rainbow Spectrum is the most unique one of the lot, and Oppo uses a 'three-layer texture and a two-layer coating' to get the shimmering effect.

On the other hand, the Oppo F21 Pro variant comes in classic Cosmic Black and retro Sunset Orange colours. The Cosmic Black colour option uses Oppo Glow technology for a glossy effect but a 'matte-like' grip. The finishing is fingerprint and stain-resistant as well. The Sunset Orange colour variant uses a fiberglass leather design that 'doubles as a frameless battery cover to make the phone thin, light and durable.' According to the company's claims, its lychee-grain leather design is waterproof and heavily wear-resistant.

Reportedly, Oppo tested out the back design for two years before approving the material. The lab tests involved rubbing the material with an alcohol-soaked pad, rubber eraser, and a denim swatch over 5000, 10,000, and 2,00,000 times respectively, to ensure its colour fidelity and durability, the company revealed.

Oppo F21 Pro series: Expected specifications and feature

The company did not reveal the Oppo F21 series' specs and features. However, there are some notable features from the images which are out so far, along with leaks doing rounds on the internet. The F21 Pro can feature a 6.43-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display with a 90Hz refresh rate. It could also come with a powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon SoC under the hood and run on Android 11-based ColorOS 12.1.

The F21 Pro variants can flaunt a triple rear camera setup with a 64MP primary camera paired with a 2MP macro and 2MP depth sensor. The other features could include a 4500mAh battery with 33W fast charging and an in-display fingerprint sensor.

Oppo F21 Pro series: Price and availability

The Oppo F21 Pro smartphones could be available in the price range of Rs 18,000 to Rs 22,000 in India, depending on the variant and colour options. But there's no official confirmation about the prices yet.
