Oppo silently launched the K12x affordable smartphone today. The device is now available for pre-order in China and sales will start next week at the equvalent of $180.
Oppo equipped K12x with a Snapdragon 695 chipset and either 8 GB or 12 GB RAM. At the front, we have a flat 6.67” OLED panel with Full HD+ resolution and up to 120 Hz refresh rate.
Storage is 256 GB or 512 GB, and there is room for a micro SD slot. The card tray can also house two nano SIM cards, both of which work on 5G networks.
Around the back you get a 50 MP main camera with f/1.8 lens, but no OIS. The second shooter is a 2 MP f/2.4 camera for portrait shots. There is one front-facing camera for selfies, and it has a 16 MP sensor. Video recording caps at 1080p @ 30 fps, but at least there is EIS.
The Oppo K12x comes with an above-standard 5,500 mAh battery and supports 80W SuperVOOC charging and PD 3.0. Oppo says it can get from 0 to 100% in 50 minutes.
