Official Oppo U3, but no 4x optical zoom
The Oppo U3 is expected to introduce on Jan 14th after passing through TENAA certification a few weeks ago. But its phone is announced a little later than expected time. The U3 is predicted to come with 4x zoom lens and might be the world’s slimmest phone its outstanding feature. But unfortunately, no 4X optical zoom as rumored earlier and a fixed focal length lens is all you get in this device.
But except for this unlucky news, the Oppo U3 is still packed pretty respectable hardware. You can find interesting a 5.9″ display along with 1080p resolution, 64 bit Mediatek, MT6752 chipset with octa-core 1.7GHz Cortex-A53 processor. Its phone also comes with 2GB of RAM, 16GB of storage built-in, a reasonable 3,000 mAh battery which is supported a fast charging that takes you only 30 minutes for 75% battery.
Aside from the large display, the Oppo U3 is reported a 13MP main camera as well as 5MP camera in the opposite side. The main emphasize on the back uses a Sony IMX214 sensor with a 1/3.06″ diagonal and can pull off software tricks resulting in 50MP images. Very convinient when you attend to make billboard-sized prints, cuz the front-facing camera designs wide angle glass and an LED flash in attempt to be suitable for more flattering group selfies.
Its dimension is 156.8 x 81 x 8mm and a weight of 195g. Another addition, the Oppo U3 will arrive with LTE connectivity, embedded AK4961 audio chip. This phone also runs on Android Kitkat 4.4.4 out of the box.
Here is the leaked photo of a headphone is packed in U3, which we believed that its headphone is equiped with some audio friendly chip for better output. Its chip is surely the AK4961 audio chip which provides hifi audio output, meaning this phone is absolutely appeal much more music lovers.
Its phone is definitely a graceful phablet which is expected to sell well. But no official words for its released prices.
