Smartphone makers around the world are known to add a few things to an already existing smartphone. In this case, you’ve got the Oppo K1 with more storage space and a new icy blue colour variant, hence, the Oppo R15X. One of the things you get to enjoy is a fairly powerful mid-range hardware and an in-display fingerprint scanner. There’s the cute notch on top that doesn’t take up much of the screen and as well as a nice glass body with a gradient colour.

Design and Display
Oppo has gotten quite good in terms of aesthetics on their smartphone and that goes on to the Oppo R15X. The smartphone features a 3D glass at the back with a gradient finish that makes it look attractive especially with the icy blue option. Over the to the front, there is a Corning Gorilla Glass 5 for added protection and you also have the teardrop notch. Since the fingerprint scanner is in-display, the back is bare except for the top edge dual camera and flash.
Everything that makes a good display these days in fact is the size which has to be on the big side and a crisp resolution. The display on the Oppo R15X now has a nice AMOLED panel and fulfils the aforementioned criteria with an FHD+ resolution. Owing to the very much reduced bezel, the smartphone now has a decent 6.4-inch display size.
Battery and Camera
It is well equipped when it comes to going for long hours on a full charge even if it’s till the end of the day. I’m not saying the smartphone has what you’d call a large battery capacity but with 3, 600mAh, there is enough. Also, it has a Micro USB port rather than today’s USB Type option and supports full charge too.
As far as pictures go, you would be able to capture some nice ones on the Oppo R15X with the set of sensors featured on it. Like the Oppo K1, the smartphone has a duo of the 16MP camera and 2MP depth sensor for portrait detailing. Switching sides, the one has a 25,MP place in the notch for taking selfies.
Hardware and Software
Taking care of graphics is a top of the line midrange Adreno 512 GPU which by the way is fair enough to an extent for the rigours of gaming. The Oppo R15X features the Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 processor. Not only that, the smartphone carries a 6GB RAM alongside a 128GB storage space with no expansion possibilities. However, it does come with Android 8.1 Oreo and some finishing touches from Oppo rather than the latest Android 9.
Oppo R15X Pricing and Availability
The smartphone costs about 131, 000 Naira depending on the deal and your location.
