On the front, the OPPO K9s has a 6.59-inch IPS LCD panel with Full HD + resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, 240Hz sampling rate, 600 nits peak brightness and Panda Glass on top. A notch in the upper left corner of the display houses a 16MP front-facing camera for selfies and video calling. Three more cameras are installed on the rear — a 64MP main camera paired with an 8MP ultra wide-angle lens and a 2MP depth sensor for portraits.
The new OPPO smartphone is powered by a 5000 mAh battery. It supports 30W fast charging via USB Type-C — 0-100% full charge takes 59 minutes. Other features of the new items include a classic 3.5 mm audio jack for headphones, support for 5G, Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2.
