Oppo has announced that it will be launching the mini-variant of its flagship smartphone, the Oppo N1 Mini, on Friday.

The Chinese handset maker confirmed the news via its official Weibo page, first spotted by GizChina, and also announced that an event on Friday is scheduled for the launch in China. However, GizChina in a report notes that the company has not yet revealed the exact time of the event.

The teaser image posted by the company confirms that the Oppo N1 Mini will come with a swivelling camera, much like its full-sized sibling.

The reportlists some of the features expected in the Oppo N1 Mini, including a slightly smaller and lighter body compared to the N1; Bluetooth 4.0 support; 2140mAh battery; 13-megapixel rotating camera; 4G connectivity and a 5-inch HD display.

When Oppo launched its flagship smartphone, the N1 last year, the smartphone created a lot of buzz with its camera which could rotate up to 206 degrees and lock at any angle. The Oppo N1 also came with support for running CyanogenMod OS, which is an open operating system based on Android and developed by Cyanogen Inc.

The Oppo N1 reached the Indian market earlier this year and was priced at Rs. 39,999 (16GB).

Specifications on the Oppo N1 include a 5.9-inch full-HD IPS display with 1080x1920 pixels resolution and 377ppi pixel density; 1.7GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 processor; 2GB of RAM; 16GB and 32GB of inbuilt storage; 13-megapixel sensor with dual LED flash, and a 3610mAh battery. The device runs ColorOS, which is Oppo's proprietary skin based on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean, out-of-the-box.

Another Oppo smartphone, the Find 7 announced back in March, will start shipping from Thursday. Earlier this month, the Find 7 went up for pre-order in China and was expected to start shipping from May 29.
