1. Unboxing OPPO F3: Elevating Dual Selfie Camera, Targeting Mid-Range Segment
Priced at nearly 7.5 million Vietnamese dong, OPPO F3 aims to provide users with additional choices in the mid-range camera phone market.
Following its official introduction to the Vietnamese market, we had the chance to get hands-on with the OPPO F3, a phone featuring 2 selfie cameras to enhance memorable moments with friends. Before delving deeper into the review, today we'll offer readers a detailed look at this phone and what's inside its box.
Recent products from OPPO have been packaged similarly, with the green logo placed at the top, resembling the previous F3 Plus model we introduced.
After exploring the outer shell, we delve into the 'core': the OPPO F3 phone.
The complete package includes: the phone, a protective case, charger, charging cable, earphones, user manual, and SIM ejector pin.
The back design bears a resemblance to the F3 Plus, but upon closer inspection, the antenna lines on the top/bottom edge of the F3 are reduced to just 1 line instead of 3 as seen on the F3 Plus.
Considered a scaled-down version of the F3 Plus, it retains some features such as the dual selfie camera, octa-core processor, 4 GB RAM, and 64 GB internal storage.
The F3 display has been shrunk to 5.5 inches, making the overall device more compact and suitable for female users. Additionally, the F3 screen is protected by Gorilla Glass 5 to minimize scratches and cracks.
The F3 also features a fingerprint sensor with Lightning-Fast Touch Access technology, enabling lightning-fast unlocking with just a touch. In addition to the basic ability to unlock the device, the F3 fingerprint sensor can also be used for security and quick access to important apps selected and installed by the user. The number of apps that can be 'accessed with a single touch' is up to 10 options. For example: Index finger for Facebook access, middle finger for quick call list...
At the bottom edge of the device are the speaker grille, micro USB port, and 3.5mm headphone jack.
The device body is quite slim, providing easy and comfortable grip.
The buttons are particularly solid and responsive, with no looseness or flimsiness.
OPPO continues to emphasize selfie capability with the F3, featuring dual front cameras. It includes a high-resolution 16MP camera for basic selfie needs, and a wide-angle camera (providing a frame twice as wide as a regular selfie camera).

The 13MP rear camera of the OPPO F3 is also noteworthy, offering high-quality photo capture with fast dual-phase detection autofocus (PDAF) and an f/2.2 aperture, with a 1/3-inch sensor size.
A landscape photo taken with the OPPO F3: details are quite good, with both bright and dark areas well preserved and colors balanced, neither too vibrant nor too dull.
Some other notable specs include the Mali-T860 GPU, a 3,200 mAh battery, running ColorOS 3.0 on Android 6.0 platform. It is known that the OPPO F3 will be officially available for pre-order from May 5 to May 12 at a price of 7,490,000 Vietnamese dong. During the initial period, customers who pre-order will receive a gift set including a 5,000 mAh power bank and a selfie stick with integrated flash.
