Oppo RX17 Pro

Oppo RX17 Pro product details

The Oppo RX17 Pro is a colorful smartphone with some impressive specifications. Think of a hidden fingerprint scanner in the screen, 3D camera with night mode, virtually bezel-less screen with drop-shaped notch and two-color glass casing with satin structure that prevents greasy fingerprints. Here's what's even more professional about the RX17 Pro.

Futuristic screen with drop-notch and fingerprint recognition

We start at the screen of the Oppo RX17 Pro. With 6.4 inches it can be called substantial. However, due to the thin screen edges, it achieves an impressive screen to housing ratio of 91.5%. This means that almost the entire front is made up of a screen. In front of the camera, only a drop-shaped cutout has been made, which leaves you with a lot of screen. That screen is protected by sturdy Gorilla Glass 6, which at the time of writing is the most durable glass from manufacturer Corning. This makes version 6 more resistant to falls. Oppo uses a Samsung panel for the screen. This AMOLED panel is known for its bright colors and high contrast values. Black, for example, is really black and the screen is bright enough for outdoor use. And the resolution of 2340 by 1080 pixels ensures sharp images. To finish it off, the screen has a built-in fingerprint scanner. You can't find it by touch, but it's futuristic.

Three rear cameras with 3D

The Oppo RX17 Pro uses even more Samsung components than the screen alone. The camera also comes from the South Koreans. It concerns the camera from the Galaxy S9, S9+ and Note9 with a variable aperture. By being able to switch between an aperture of f/1.5 and f/2.4, you can take sharp photos both in the dark and during the day. The lens features optical image stabilization for sharper images without motion blur. In addition to this camera, the RX17 Pro has 2 more cameras on the back. A 20 megapixel with f/2.6 lens for portrait photos and zoom and a TOF 3D camera that can see thanks to infrared depth. With this, Oppo goes a step further than manufacturers who use a 'normal' 2nd camera to capture sharpness/depth. Also a not nauseous one has been chosen; a 25 megapixel AI Beauty camera. With this camera, you can apply filters that make your selfies just a little bit more fun.

Powerful phone, not waterproof

To make the RX17 Pro a serious fast phone, Oppo has chosen the Snapdragon 710 processor from Qualcomm. This relatively new chipset can be found in premium but affordable phones. It is not entirely coincidental that you can use the Oppo RX17 Pro among them. The powerful chip has an impressive amount of RAM memory at its disposal; 6 GB. This allows you to launch multiple apps at lightning speed and switch between them. The device's processing power makes it suitable for games, even if it's not primarily intended for that purpose. The RX17 Pro runs Oppo's own ColorOS 5.2 which is based on Android 8.1 Oreo. It is Oppo's own running on the most popular mobile operating system available; Android. You can run your own favorite Android apps on it but it looks a little different than you're used to. Too bad the Oppo RX17 Pro doesn't have a waterproof case and then it lacks wireless charging. That's what you'd expect from a professional phone today.
