There are some sacrifices OPPO has made to make the F3 an affordable smartphone. Compared to the F3 Plus, buyers miss out on the faster Snapdragon chipset, a superior primary camera which supports 4K video, as well as the company’s VOOC fast charging tech. However, even without the slightly faster SoC, the F3 wasn’t a lag-fest.

There are some sacrifices OPPO has made to make the F3 an affordable smartphone. Compared to the F3 Plus, buyers miss out on the faster Snapdragon chipset, a superior primary camera which supports 4K video, as well as the company’s VOOC fast charging tech. However, even without the slightly faster SoC, the F3 wasn’t a lag-fest. The primary camera would’ve been greatly benefited with 4K video recording support but during my testing period, I didn’t find myself looking for other phones to click pictures with. The lack of VOOC quick charging is a bummer, but the F3 somewhat makes up for it by offering stellar battery life and standby times. The F3 isn`t an outright winner, but for its asking price, it does get a lot of things right. Buyers can also look at the Moto G5 Plus (review) in this price range, which offers a vanilla Android experience, a faster processor, and a great rear camera, but misses out on the selfie goodness of the OPPO F3. 

    Pros

  • Solid selfie camera
  • Good build quality
  • Decent battery life

    Cons

  • Dated Android build
  • No fast charging
  • Sub-par gaming performance
Design and display +

One of the biggest differentiators between the OPPO F3 Plus and the OPPO F3 is the size. The OPPO F3 Plus is a phablet and packs a massive 6-inch display. On the contrary, the OPPO F3 sports a much smaller footprint and comes with a 5.5-inch display. Understandably, the smaller dimensions of the F3 make it a lot more manageable and despite not having very large hands, I faced no issues reaching the far corners of the smartphone while holding it with one hand. However, other than the screen size, the F3 is identical to the F3 Plus in terms of design. Matter of fact, the company has been consistent in terms of aesthetics for most of its smartphones. But unless you are a returning OPPO customer, the monotonous design language won’t be the biggest thorn in your side. Moving on, the handset has been constructed out of metal, which coupled with its sleek girth, gives the device a rather premium feel. There’s a right mix of rounded edges and chamfered layers which further contribute to the smartphone’s good looks. Mind you, the F3 is slippery, although that’s a trade-off you’ll have to make with any metallic smartphone.

Much like most other Chinese OEMs, OPPO also ships its smartphones with a custom skin built over Android, called ColorOS in this case. The F3 runs Android Marshmallow with a layer of ColorOS v3.0 on top. However, with this far into 2017, I expected the smartphone to run at least Android Nougat v7.0. The company sort of makes up for it by bundling the Google Assistant with the F3.

Performance +

The OPPO F3 packs an octa-core MediaTek MT6750T processor which works in tandem with 4GB of RAM and has 64GB of onboard storage which can be expanded by inserting a microSD card. There’s no denying the fact that the OPPO F3 is underpowered as compared to the F3 Plus, which gets a Snapdragon 653 octa-core SoC instead. However, I won’t get into the ‘Snapdragon is better than MediaTek’ debate because at the end of the day, what matters is how the smartphone performs in real life. And as far as the OPPO F3 is concerned, I am happy to report that the smartphone manages to hold its own when it comes to daily tasks. I am a heavy multitasker and constantly switch between apps, and I faced little-to-no lag while transitioning between different applications.

OPPO has been innovating a lot on the camera front and has acquired a good reputation for itself with its selfie-centric smartphones. With the OPPO F3, buyers get a similar camera setup on the front as the F3 Plus comprising a pair of 16MP and 8MP shooters. On the back, the camera on the F3 is a step down from its elder sibling in terms of pixel count. While the F3 Plus ships with a 16MP sensor, the F3 comes with a 13MP one instead. The dual front cameras on the F3 enable you to capture wide-angle selfies. While the 16MP sensor up front captures selfies with incredible details, the 8MP sensor comes into play when you must squeeze a friend or two in the selfie with you.
