Oppo, the Chinese smartphone-maker, joined the smartphone party late, but it did create some buzz with it's innovative N1, which boasted of a swivel camera - something that was new and gained attention.
After that, it launched several devices, but none of them could make a splash in the market.
And, to make its presence felt in the Indian market, Oppo recently released Find 7, a device which the company claims comes with some revolutionary features.

Build and design
Our review piece was a white Oppo Find 7, which looks similar to most Android phablets.
But I would not like to take anything away from the fact that it feels glossy, smooth, and sleek. If you are one who likes details, then here it is - 152.6mm tall, 75mm wide, and 9.2mm thick.

Display, OS and processor
Find 7 has a 5.5-inch Quad HD display, titled as the world's first smartphone with 2K display, providing a resolution of 1,440 x 2,560 pixels and 538 ppi pixel density.
The phone runs Android 4.3 Jelly Bean OS, topped with Oppo's own Color OS 1.2. It is powered by a 2.5GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor.
Lightweight games such as TempleRun and Subway Surfer work smoothly on it. I must add it handled the heavy duty Ashphalt 8 with ease.

Camera
Touted as one of the best in the category, the smartphone houses a 13-megapixel (MP) primary camera with LED flash and super zoom, the Pure Image 2.0 software makes 50MP shots possible by taking 10 consecutive shots in a very quick time and combines the best four image into a 50MP image.
The camera also can record 4K videos. The device also boasts of a 5MP front-facing camera with BSI sensor. One of the best front cameras for selfie lovers.

Verdict
Find 7 is definitely an awesome smartphone. The most impressive part is its camera with super zoom option and the luxurious storage space.
I would have given it a thumbs-up had it been priced anywhere below Rs 30,000 but at Rs 37,700, it might not be a great buy considering the many other options you have in the market at a much lower cost.
