It could come with a 16-megapixel selfie camera sensor and a depth sensor at the front.

The Oppo F17 Pro leaked specifications also include the possibility of a 4,000mAh battery and three distinct colour options - Magic Blue, Matte Black, and Metallic White.

The Oppo F17, on the other hand, is expected to have a 6.44-inch full-HD+ Super AMOLED display with a waterdrop-style notch design. The phone may also feature a quad rear camera setup, with a 16-megapixel primary sensor and an 8-megapixel secondary sensor. For selfies, it could include a single 16-megapixel snapper at the front.
