Oppo, an unfamiliar and new mobile brand for Indians has today launched their flagship smartphone Oppo N1 in India at an event in New Delhi. The N1 was initially announced in September 2013 and now Oppo has managed to launch the device in India within a short period of time. As N1 tagline says ‘Return to Innovation’, the company has surely focused on innovation as N1 is the world’s first smartphone to feature a rotating camera that serves as a common sensor for the rear and front facing shots. Best for taking best selfies indeed!

The Oppo N1 is a large and beautiful smartphone featuring a 5.9-inch Full HD IPS display at 377 PPI, powered by a 1.7 GHz Snapdragon 600 Quad Core processor, 2GB RAM, 13 MP swivel camera with dual-mode LED flash and a battery capacity of 3610 mAh. N1’s interesting part is its outstanding camera that features a 206° rotation, firmly locks in position at any angle and is designed to perfectly withstand 100,000 rotations. The device packs a full metal aluminum alloy frame and is fenced by two finely cut chamfered edges that showcases its elegance. It also sports ‘O-Touch’, a touch panel on rear side for one handed usage.

Moreover, N1 is based on the Android Open Source Project, CyanogenMod. The Color OS based on Android 4.2 comes pre-installed with it and also an unlocked bootloader, letting you install your favourite custom ROMs with ease.

Was a shocker for me when I saw a large Oppo N1 banner in front of a small phone shop here in Hyderabad.

Looked it up in detail today - the banner had Hrithik and Sonam Kapoor on it - meaning it is indeed a local launch

3 models are available as of now:

- Oppo N1 : 38k for the 16GB model

- Oppo Find Mini : 19.5k (dual sim with 4.7" screen and the Mediatek MT6582 @ 1.3 ghz and 1GB RAM and 8GB storage + 8GB mSD)

- Oppo R827 : 11.5k (dual sim with Mediatek chip and 512 MB RAM)

That R827 needs a drastic price cut or it won't sell. Even the Find mini would struggle against Moto G.
 
Moreover, N1 is based on the Android Open Source Project, CyanogenMod. The Color OS based on Android 4.2 comes pre-installed with it and also an unlocked bootloader, letting you install your favourite custom ROMs with ease.
This is true for the intl. versions. What about the indian one ?

if its a dual sim then forget any present or future CM. Which is ironic as oppo is supposed to be the first official CM based phone. According to clinton jeff, india isn't even getting a CM based phone. Let reviewers clarify this point.

The price is also high. Avoid this one.
 
The N1 available is the international version - single sim. No dearth of support.

And how is the price high at 38k?
