OPPO announced the launch of its latest smartphone, the OPPO F23 5G.

Three out of four Indians, according to a recent study by OPPO and Counterpoint, suffer from nomophobia, or the dread of being without a phone, which is typically brought on by a low or dead battery.

OPPO has released the F23 5G to tackle the Nomophobia problem and to satisfy this clearly expressed requirement for a device with a long-lasting, large-capacity, durable battery.

Some of the features of this new smartphone are:

• OPPO’s proprietary 67W SUPERVOOCTM flash charging charges the device to 50% in just 18 minutes, while a 5-minute charge can provide up to 6 hours of phone calls or 2.5 hours of YouTube video viewing. On a full charge, its 5000mAh battery lasts up to 39 hours of phone calls and 16 hours of YouTube video viewing.
• OPPO’s Battery Health Engine ensures that the device can be charged-discharged 1600 times, which means the F23 5G will perform properly for up to four years.
• The F23 5G phone is equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 5G SoC and comes with 256GB storage.
• The F23 5G runs on ColorOS 13.1, which enhances privacy and performance.
• The OPPO F23 5G is equipped with a 64MP AI shooter, a 2MP depth camera, a 2MP microlens, and a 32MP selfie snapper–backed by proprietary features such as Portrait Mode, AI Portrait Retouching, Selfie HDR, and AI Color Portrait.
• For premium looks, the F23 5G sports OPPO Glow, which comprises millions of nano-level etchings on the back.
• The OPPO F23 5G has a bright 6.72-inch large display that is legible even in direct sunlight and supports an Ultra-High Refresh Rate of 120Hz. It boasts a 3D curved screen.

OPPO F23 5G will be available in two colors- Bold Gold and Cool Black.

The device will be available at INR 24,999, through the OPPO Store, on Amazon, and at retail outlets.
