OPPO R17 Pro: First Impressions

The OPPO R17 Pro is more than just eye-candy, it also packs amazing processing power and camera performance. While recent releases are jumping onto the dual camera bandwagon, the R17 Pro is already leagues ahead with its triple camera setup.

 

Design & Construction

The R17 Pro has an interesting exterior: the back panel is decorated with a captivating gradient that reflects light beautifully. It’s a bit heavy but for its size and thickness, the phone has a good balance to it. The is an under-display fingerprint sensor, while the power button sits on the right side with the volume control on the left. At the bottom are the sim card tray, a USB Type-C port, and the loudspeakers.

Display & Multimedia

The R17 Pro’s 6.4-inch AMOLED display has a waterdrop notch. When set at maximum brightness, the screen can get really straining on the eyes. Colors show up rich and vivid but even without the blue light filter off, the color configuration is a bit on the warm side. This isn’t really a disadvantage, but other users might prefer a display with a cooler color temperature.

Sound quality is good and can be heard throughout a busy room when the volume is turned all the way up. But when used for playing, the speaker placement isn’t very ideal as it runs the risk of being covered when gripping the phone horizontally.

Camera

As advertised, you can expect superb camera performance from the R17 Pro. With its 12MP+20MP+TOF 3D triple rear camera, you can take stunning and detailed photos in crystal clear quality. Colors turn out great whether it be for outdoor or indoor settings. Among the phones I’ve tested so far, the R17 Pro is probably the best for taking pictures in low-light conditions, hence its tagline: “Seize the night”

As for its 25MP selfie camera, even without a night mode it still has improved low-light shooting settings that produce decent pictures with very minimal noise. As with any OPPO phone, the front camera takes amazing selfies and captures skin tone nicely.

Performance

Powered by a Snapdragon 710 chipset, the R17 Pro can definitely keep up with anyone’s lifestyle. The powerful processor coupled with an Adreno 616 GPU and a large 8GB RAM allows users to multitask without fear of any lags. This setup also makes the R17 Pro an amazing choice for gaming, as it can handle games with heavy graphics.

Its non-removable 3,700mAh battery is enough to last you the whole day even after playing games. The R17 Pro also has an integrated SuperVOOC Flash Charging feature that fully recharges the device in under an hour, saving you time and allowing you to be even more productive.

All in all, the OPPO R17 Pro is a stellar device for those who are looking for a phone that can cater to their needs. Not only is it ultra-stylish, but it also has the power to back up its looks. The R17 Pro currently retails for SGD 999 (Php 38,900).
