OPPO has unveiled the K12, a rebranded version of the recently launched OnePlus Nord CE 4 in India.
This latest addition to the K series brings a familiar set of specifications to the Chinese market and obviously is only going to be sold in that market.
Here’s what you need to know.
These prices more-or-less echo how the Nord CE 4 retails in India.
The OPPO K12 is now available for pre-order in China and will go on sale starting from April 29th.
If you’re familiar with the Nord CE 4 then the specs of the K12 will not come as any shock to you.
The handset boasts an anti-fall diamond structure with a Swiss SGS Gold Label Five-Star Fall Resistance Certification, ensuring durability.
Apart from that you also get the standard 6.7-inch 120Hz AMOLED display with a resolution of 2412 x 1080 pixels.
It also supports a 240Hz touch sampling rate, 2160Hz PWM Dimming, and up to 1100 nits of peak brightness.
As per usual, powering the OPPO K12 is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 SoC, built on a 4nm process.
The device is equipped with a 4192mm super large liquid-cooled VC heat sink and a total heat dissipation area of 15277mm.
For battery needs the 5,500mAh battery is present along with lightning-fast 100W of SuperVOOC charging.
The camera setup includes a 50MP main camera with a Sony LYT-600 sensor and optical image stabilization (OIS), accompanied by an 8MP 120-degree ultra-wide camera with a Sony IMX355 sensor.
For selfies, there’s a 16MP front-facing camera. Additionally, the device supports NFC connectivity, which the OnePlus Nord CE 4 lacks.
