OPPO has announced the that the OPPO R17 Pro is officially available in Malaysia starting from RM1999 for the 8GB RAM and 128GB of internal storage. Available at all OPPO stores across Malaysia as well as on websites such as xxxx. Not only that, the limited edition OPPO R17 Pro Emerald Green edition is also available for the same price as well.

With the OPPO R17 Pro launching on 22 November 2018, stand a chance to win prizes such as the Olike Neo Sportband worth up to RM389 when you watch and share the livestream hosted on OPPO’s official Facebook page from 7:20pm onwards. Not only that, those who pre-ordered the OPPO R17 Pro from 23 November 2018 onwards will also receive a complimentary Olike Neo Sportband courtesy of OPPO as well. In terms of the pricing, there is no official news of it yet but we expect the device to cost around RM1999.

OPPO has announced that the limited edition OPPO R17 Pro Emerald Green will soon be available in Malaysia. Since the official launch of the device will fall on 22 November 2018, we expect the Emerald Green colour scheme to be available during that day as well. Other than the Emerald Green, there is also the Stream Blue colour scheme as well.

So this just came in, OPPO Malaysia has confirmed that its triple camera OPPO R17 Pro smartphone will be making its arrival on 22 November 2018 and it seems that the 'Seize the Night' fan event is also the official launch. Moreover, local celebrities and OPPO ambassadors, Min-Chen and Zahirah Macwilson are attending it as well.

So looks like our wild guess about the OPPO R17 Pro turns out to be true, the new triple camera-centric smartphone will be coming to Malaysia after all and OPPO Malaysia is going to host an "OPPO Night Explorer Recruitment" event for the O-fans, which they will get to have a first hands-on experience with the R17 Pro in advance!

So apparently, OPPO Malaysia is bringing another new R-series smartphone into the Malaysia market. The last one was the R15 Pro which made its debut about 6 months ago and while they are keeping it quiet on what the new one is, we are throwing a wild guess that it could be the R17 Pro.

So just a few hours ago in China, OPPO quietly released the latest R17 Pro on their website as a new mid-range device. With a starting price of 4299 Yuan (~RM2567), the source says that the sales will start in mid-October but only for China, so it's unclear if the phone will make its way to other regions or not.

Guess who's joining the triple camera setup club? It's none other than OPPO and with the new short R17 Pro advertisement, the triple camera setup is positioned vertically in the middle followed by a LED flashlight and will be released soon on 23 August 2018.
