We were all about to give up hope of a new flagship from
Oppo, but
news today reveals the
Oppo Find 9 will be announced in Beijing on the 19th September.
The last time we saw an Oppo Flagship
launch was early last year and the release of the Oppo Find 7. That
launch event saw two versions of the Find 7 launched with either 2K or FHD panels. The standard 1080p Find 7a model went on to become the basis of the OnePlus One.
Oppo have since launched the camera centric
Oppo N3, and a bunch of ultra thin phones, the most recent being the R7 and R7 Plus, but what we have all really been waiting for is the Oppo Find 9.
The news of the Oppo Find 9 launch was broken by Weibo tipster @Kjuma, who posted a teaser image stating the 4G equipped Find 9 would release in Beijing on the 19th September.
The lack of Oppo Find 9 news, leaks and this sudden announcement mean we know very little about the new phone so we leave it to our gut and analysts to fill in the blanks.
Specs for the Oppo Find 9 are likely to include 4GB RAM, 2K display, 21 mega-pixel main camera, fingerprint scanner and
Snapdragon 810 processor. What we are really interested in is if the Find 9 and OnePlus 2 are related to each other like last years phones.
