Oppo has launched its latest flagship smartphone, the N1, which is the first smartphone from the company's N-Lens series.
The
Oppo N1 will be available in two storage variants of 16GB and 32GB and
is expected to launch in early December. In China, the Oppo N1 (16GB)
comes at 3,498 Yuan or about $570 (Rs. 35,750 approximately).
The
company notes that it is planning to work with Google to release a stock
Android version of its flagship smartphone. This hints that the Chinese
manufacturer wants to extend its reach beyond the Chinese boundaries.
Oppo
N1 comes with support for running CyanogenMod OS, which is an open
operating system based on Android 4.3 and developed by Cyanogen Inc. The
company notes that international variants of the Oppo N1 will run
ColorOS, and will also have the ability to flash CyanogenMod directly from
stock recovery. However, the company has not detailed the procedure to
switch over to CyanogenMod.
Specifications on the Oppo N1 include a
5.9-inch full-HD (1080p) IPS display with 1080x1920 pixels resolution
and 377ppi pixel density, 1.7GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 600
processor, 2GB of RAM, 16 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 OS based on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean out of
the box.
One of the highlights of the Oppo N1 is its camera which
comes with rotating capabilities and can rotate up to 206 degrees and
can lock at any angle.
