News & Reviews:   OPPO R9S

Not only we will see one company launch their popular mid-tier smartphone, OPPO is also set to launch a model at the same time. The brand will be launching their OPPO R9s and possibly the R9s Plus locally in an event set to happen on the 5th of January.

This week Malaysia saw the Bajet 2017, with a proposed increase in broadband speeds at the same price rate from January 2017, while Malaysia's telcos all came out with their respective Apple iPhone 7 deals. This includes Maxis with their trade up and RealView stock checker, along with U Mobile and their UPackage plan.

A new family member has joined the Oppo family under the R series – the new Oppo R9s. Two models were introduced in the family line – the R9s and the R9s Plus, with the latter having a larger physical size, as well as RAM up to 6GB.  

On 19 October 2016, the new OPPO R9s will make an appearance in China and it's the official successor to the R9. Invitations were already been sent out to various China media members, showing a new Sony IMX398 sensor indicating that the smartphone is focusing on the camera.

As OPPO continues to progress steadily in the smartphone industry, it looks like a new successor to the OPPO R9 - the R9S which is coming to China on 12 September 2016.

OPPO's next smartphone, the OPPO R9S is rumoured to be the next release after the huge success of the R9 and has granted certification from TENAA just recently, along with some render images from four different angles.

Last June, we reported that OPPO could be planning a new OPPO R9S device due to the success of the R9 in China. There wasn't any information except that August could be the month when it comes, which seems to be true now that OPPO has released a new teaser about it.

OPPO's flagship the OPPO R9 in China is selling like hot cakes, as of today, the device has been sold over 7 million units since the launch and not surprisingly, this prompted OPPO to release a new successor after the phone, the OPPO R9S.
