The OPPO R9s sports a 5.5-inch 1080P display sheathed in 5th Gen Corning Gorilla Glass 5, runs Android Marshmallow 6.0 on a Snapdragon 625 2GHz octacore processor paired with 4GB RAM and 64GB of expandable storage. The R9s’ claim to fame is its rear camera that comes with a Sony sourced IMX398 16-MP sensor, dual phase detection autofocus and a wide F/1.7 aperture for better quality shots along with electronic image stabilisation.

The front has an equally matched 16-MP camera though it has an F/2.0 aperture. Instead of a front facing flash, the R9s uses the touchscreen as a light source for more pleasing self portrait snaps.

To keep it juiced, the R9s has a non-removable 3010mAh battery with their VOOC Flash Charge tech for fast charging. Other mod-cons include a fingerprint reader at the base of the display.

The aluminum unibody chassis has slimmer and smaller antenna lines that are just 0.3mm thin so they look like finely engraved lines bisecting the top and bottom of the phone.
