Oppo K3 finally went official as Oppo unveiled the device in China yesterday. The device packs quite a lot of features for an affordable price. The new phone not only looks like the recently launched Realme X but shares quite a bit of feature too.

Overview

The Oppo K3’s stand out feature is definitely the pop-up selfie camera. This camera measures 16-megapixel and has made way for a bezel-less experience on the display (although there is a hint of a chin at the bottom). There is a 6.5-inch AMOLED display with Full HD+ resolution and 19.5:9 aspect ratio on Oppo K3. The phone has a Corning Gorilla Glass display protection, but Oppo hasn’t yet specified the version.

The Oppo K3 has 16-megapixel primary camera on the rear-side which is one of the few differences it has with the Realme X. A 2-megapixel depth sensor completes the camera setup of the phone. For storage purpose, the K3 comes in two storage variants-64 GB / 128 GB with 6 GB RAM and 128 GB with 8 GB RAM.
