OPPO F17 price in Nigeria & availability
Oppo F17 comes in two variants: 6GB RAM and 8GB RAM 6 GB RAM variant is priced at Rs 17,990 ~N95,000, while the 8 GB RAM variant is priced at Rs 19,990 ~N105,000. It comes in three colors: Navy Blue, Classic Silver, and Dynamic Orange.
Oppo F17 is a contender against the likes of Realme 7 Pro and Galaxy M31, etc. for a smartphone under Rs 20,000. Oppo F17 will go on sale in India via Oppo’s official website and offline stores starting September 21.
Its sleek design, lightweight, and clean display are what would make this phone to perform well in the market. As for the price, it pretty affordable when you look at the specs.
The Oppo F17 Pro is really attractive to the eye, mainly due to its slimness. It seems very different when you look at its predecessor, thanks to the rear camera style. Even the battery capacity is not left behind unless if you are looking for a MASSIVE one.
I do think the camera specs on paper could have been much better. Another compromise is the performance, though good on its own but it is not even close to what is found in devices with similar prices like Realme 6 Pro, Realme X2, Samsung Galaxy M31, and others.
