Oppo launched the F27 5G in India which is awfully similar to the Reno12 F 5G that launched a few months earlier. Maybe that is why Oppo decided to not make much noise about it. Regardless, in this article, we will be looking into the Oppo F27 5G in further detail while also discussing what its price in Nepal might be.
Oppo F27 5G Overview
Design and Display
As I mentioned earlier, the Oppo F27 5G is a repackaging of the Reno12 F 5G. As such, the phone does not look any different. It comes in the same flat edges with a large circular camera dial with LED baked in it, which the company dubs “Halo Light”. Likewise, the colour options are not any different either with the monotone Emerald Green, and Amber Orange with fiery patterns on the back.
On the front, we get the same 6.67-inch Flat OLED panel with AGC DT-Star2 glass protection. The Oppo F27 5G display is an FHD+ unit that can toggle between 60Hz and 120Hz refresh rate. Furthermore, it offers a touch sampling rate of up to 240Hz and full coverage of DCI-P3 and sRGB colour gamut. It can get plenty bright with a peak brightness of 2,100 nits.
Performance
Though Oppo does not mention exactly which chip the F27 5G is running on, it likely has the same processor as the Oppo Reno12 F 5G i.e. MediaTek Dimensity 6300. The silicon’s architecture suggests the same as well. This phone comes with 8GB, which is lower than its Reno counterpart. But again, the memory option matches to the 4G model of the Reno 12 F. The storage options are lower as well, with 128GB and 256GB being the available choices. Additionally, the Oppo F27 5G retains all the AI and other features like BeaconLink, AI Studio, AI LinkBoost, etc.

Camera and the rest
Another key difference the Oppo F27 5G has is its cameras. It comes with two rear shooters while the Reno phones enjoy an extra unit on the back. This phone has a 50MP primary camera and is coupled with a 2MP depth sensor. It means that one of the cutouts is just a dummy piece. Meanwhile, on the front, it has a 32MP selfie shooter.
As for the power supply, it packs a 5,000 mAh battery with 45W charging support. This phone has a stereo speaker setup and supports spatial audio.
