The new OPPO F3 Plus positions itself as Groupie Expert



Selfies will never be the same now with the whole gang in the picture!

Mobile technology brand OPPO is hoping to expand its reach with the launch new F3 series last March 23, 2017.

Oppo has outfitted its F3 Plus phone with dual front cameras. The Front camera of F3 plus is 16MP + 8MP Dual camera with Screen Flash and Rear camera is 16-Megapixels with f/1.7 + PDAF + OIS + LED flash. The primary camera features geo-tagging , 1/2.8″ sensor size, touch focus, face detection, HDR & panorama and it takes amazing photos with high quality.

The secondary front camera serves a practical purpose other than depth-of-field tricks. Oppo F3 Plus is the first-ever smartphone with a wide-angle dual front camera that easily accommodate ‘groufies’ in a single shot. Its 8-megapixel sensor and lens offer a much wider field of view to help you cram more people into a frame for group selfies.



“Since OPPO started the Selfie Revolution in the Philippines with the F1 Series, we’ve gone through incredible growth especially when we became the country’s second bestselling smartphone in 2016,” OPPO Philippines Brand Marketing Manager Stephen Cheng said. “We are very excited to see the F3 Plus start a new trend in groufies and reinforce our position as the Selfie Expert.”




“The F3 Plus was developed for both selfie lovers and photography buffs who want a smartphone that lets them take stunning shots wherever they are, no matter the time of day. Our newest camera phone packs state-of-the-art hardware and software in a sleek body to deliver outstanding performance and style, perfect for the urban lifestyle,” Cheng added.

Effortless from selfie to groufie

Set to be the ultimate Selfie Expert, the F3 Plus builds upon the technology of the earlier OPPO F1s to deliver outstanding selfie photography. The new smartphone sports a similar 16-megapixel (MP) selfie camera with a 1/3-inch sensor for clear image results even in low light, as well as an f/2.0 aperture for depth-of-field aesthetic.

The difference lies in the additional secondary camera. This 8MP groufie-camera has a wide 120-degree angle—105 percent larger than the regular 80-degree lens field of view— which allows more people to fit inside the frame. The wide-angle shot is also complemented by a 6P lens to minimize distortion.

Internal Memory is 64GB with extra slot of 256GB + OTG support. it runs on latest operating system Android 6.0 (marshmallow) with OPPO OS colorOS 3.0. Battery life is good 3600mAh with fast charging support.

Ease of use has been carefully designed into the front camera’s functionality to reflect OPPO’s “user-oriented” philosophy. The built-in Smart Facial Recognition, for instance, notifies users to switch to “Groufie” mode when more than three people are detected. This makes the switch from selfie to groufie effortless while keeping image quality stable.

The new smartphone still comes with the brand’s pioneering image editing software, Beautify 4.0, which offers a range of beautification modes for a flawless look in every selfies and groufies.

Built for professional photography

Significant improvements have also been made for the rear-facing camera. Co-developed by Sony, the 16MP back camera is now powered by a customized 1/2.8-inch IMX398 sensor for fast focusing speed, outstanding noise reduction, and advanced low-light performance—ideal for serious photography.



The new phone will be out in Philippine stores this April 1 at the suggested retail price of P23,990. Pre-orders, along with a free Bluetooth headset and a selfie stick, will be available in all OPPO concept stores and selected dealer stores nationwide as well as at the brand’s official online shop in Lazada from March 24 to 31.
