The most striking feature of the Oppo F9 is the big display with the waterdrop notch. It is well designed, delivers good battery life, and offers decent performance for the price. If you prioritise good looks over everything else, the Oppo F9 does have that going for it. On the other hand, we have competitors that offer better value for money smartphones in the same price range.

The Oppo F9 is among the most attractive in the mid-range today. Unique with that waterdrop-like notch and beautiful with the gradient back with cool pattern underneath.

If you live in a region where it’s available, the Oppo F9 offers plenty of modern smartphone features for an affordable price. The screen is nearly bezel-less with an attractive notch, it has dual cameras, and the color options are very unique. It isn’t a game-changing smartphone, but it’s another smartphone showcasing Oppo’s continued efforts in design innovation.

The OPPO F9 is another step in the right direction for the company who has been slowly trying to buck the trend for this product line to make it more than just a Selfie Expert. Its performance is on par with a lot of its peers, it’s a good looking phone, and they’ve really improved on the rear camera performance too. We really have to commend the brand for taking things a step further with the F series. It’s definitely worth your consideration.

With the OPPO F9, the company is once again showing that it can make great and value for money mid-range phones, the phone continues to excel what the F series is great at while improving design and hardware features without requiring users to pay more, while it does seem like a rather attractive deal for RM1399, OPPO does face tough competition in that price range, especially when devices like Xiaomi’s POCOPHONE F1 surfaces out of the blue at this point of time, offering much superior hardware internals yet priced cheaper than the OPPO F9.

All in all, OPPO F9 is a smartphone with a good set of specs and features. It’s OPPO’s good contender in the upper-midrange smartphone category. Its interesting features such as the VOOC battery charging compensate some of its downsides including the struggle in focusing the subject in rear camera shooting that we encountered while testing its camera capabilities.

The OPPO F9 feels more like a refinement of the F7 than a successor, but that is not to say that they are negligible. The new waterdrop screen, prettier design, increased RAM, updated OS, dual rear cameras, and a larger battery with VOOC Flash Charge, are very welcome improvements.

On paper, the Oppo F9 Pro will compete with the likes of Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro, Asus ZenFone Max M1 Pro, and Honor 9N, which are all priced more aggressively. However, Oppo hopes that its eye-catching designs and Super VOOC flash charging will prove to be differentiating factors. The company is hoping to appeal to young buyers with aesthetics, rather than focusing on specifications. The Oppo F9 Pro is now up for pre-order via Flipkart, and will go on sale offline and online from August 31. The Oppo F9 will be made available soon in India, the company added. Stay tuned to Gadgets 360 for our detailed review of the Oppo F9 Pro, coming up soon.
