Chinese
phone maker
Oppo are readying the
launch of a $160
Android smartphone to compete with Xiaomi’s feverishly popular Hongmi!
The
Oppo R833T follows the similar design signature as the flagship N1, but with a smaller screen, lower specifications, and no
rotating camera, this
device will be tackling the
entry-level market.
Powered by
Mediatek’s latest 1.3Ghz
quad-core chipset, the R833T should offer good performance along with dual SIM support, and SD card memory expansion. It is also getting 1GB RAM and will ship with Oppo’s ColorOS with a handy
Guest Mode. So where is the catch? Well the display has a resolution of just 480 x 800 (compared the the Hongmi’s 1280 x 720) and this being a Mediatek Oppo it will only officially go on sale in China.
