Chinese smartphone manufacturer Oppo has been creating a lot of buzz lately with the hashtag #ASparkOfBrilliance. They’ve been hinting at a new unit that will land in Philippine shores this August. The rumor mills grinding internationally have speculated that Oppo’s latest phone is the Mirror 5. The phone (stylized as ‘Mirror 5s) has already debuted in other countries which makes it only a matter of time before it arrives in our country.
The rumored Mirror 5s will features the same reflective diamond-patterned back of the Oppo R1x released earlier this year. Photos indicate a thinner and more metallic frame. Under the hood, the Oppo Mirror 5s is rumored to feature a 1.2GHz quad-core Snapdragon processor, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of internal storage, a 5MP front-facing camera, a PureImage 2.0+ interface for its rear camera, and a 2,420mAh battery. It will definitely run on Android, but we don’t know if it will already be on Lollipop or retain the KitKat OS.
After spending considerable time in the Philippine market, Oppo has also teased their first celebrity endorser. Luckily, the company has already went ahead and revealed the identity of this mystery endorser on their Facebook page prior to the launch of the phone. Sarah Geronimo will endorse Oppo’s latest phone when it launches on the 13th of August at the Mall of Asia Atrium.
