OPPO F1s Selfie Expert First Impressions, Specs, Pictures

Hi guys,

If you follow my blog, you know I have reviewed the OPPO F1 which was launched in Feb HERE. And then later in April, I went to Delhi for the OPPO F1 Plus Selfie Expert phone launch and also reviewed the F1 Plus HERE, comparing it with Samsung Galaxy A7.

Now OPPO has launched the F1s which is already available for pre-booking. I am trying out the device since about a week now and here are my thoughts on it.

Key Features:

• 16MP Front camera and 1/3.1 inch Image Sensor
• Beautify 4.0
• In built Filters
• 13MP Rear Camera and 1/3.06 inch sensor
• 2.5D Corning Gorilla Glass 4 Screen
• 0.22s Fingerprint Unlock
• Customizable Finger print activated app launch
• 3GB RAM
• Dual 4G sim 
• 32GB internal memory, expandable upto 128GB
• New ColorOS 3.0 based on Android 5.1

Price: INR 17990

Colors Available: Gray & Gold

It’s a 5.5 inch screen normal sized smartphone, it’s not as thin and light as the F1 Plus, but not very heavy too, 160g to be precise. It has 3075mAh battery which is pretty good and lasts through whole day in one full charge!

It comes with earphones, charger, USB cord and a transparent plastic back case.

Of course, the phone does have all the excellent camera features which all OPPO phones come with. From Selfie Panoroma to HDR and Expert Mode.

I have clicked this with the Expert Mode, Ultra HD Mode, HD Mode and the Normal mode. The Expert Mode lets you adjust the white balance, ISO and every other setting. If you are a professional photographer, you can change those every single time before clicking. Ultra HD gives brighter and clearer pictures. HD mode is true to color and will give you super sharp pictures. They are heavy in size and resolution. HD mode is my favourite, and the Normal mode clicks pretty good pictures too. They have an inbuilt editor which lets you quickly edit pictures.

Also my favourite Beautify 4.0 mode, it makes your selfies look flawless! And also natural at the same time. I have taken this picture with the normal mode and the Beautify mode. Mind you, I only have concealer and some powder used here on my skin, and the Beautify mode gives me flawless skin as if I have full makeup on. I love the fact that it brightens and sharpens my eyes.

Both front and rear camera clicks excellent pictures even in low light and night time, compared to all other expensive phones in the segment. I had compared the F1 Plus with Samsung Galaxy A7 in my previous blog post. As you can see in the pictures above, it concentrates light on the subject and dims the background, so the subject is well lit!

Sensors on the phone include Proximity sensor, Ambient light sensor, Accelerometer. The finger print sensor is unbelievably fast! Colours are very bright and sharp and pictures come true to colour.

It has almost all the features of the F1 Plus, and at an attractive price of 17990! If you are looking for a phone that looks stylish, has excellent camera and battery, plus is not very expensive, you do not have to look any further!! OPPO F1s is your answer! Pre book at your nearesr OPPO store.
