OPPO N1 has December 10th release date with $599 price tag

OPPO's new flagship Android handset, the OPPO N1, will launch on December 10th according to the manufacturer itself. The phone is priced at $599/€449 and first came to our attention months ago with some unusual promotional pictures. One praised the phone's ability to be used with one hand while a roll of toilet paper was spotted in the photo. Among the many capabilities of this model, it will run CyanogenMod out of the box, without any rooting necessary.

And the rest of the specs are also top notch including the 5.8 inch 1080 x 1920 resolution screen and the quad-core 1.7GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 CPU under the hood. 2GB of RAM is inside along with 16GB or 32GB of native storage. There is a micro SD slot on board and the 3610mAh cell allowed the OPPO N1 to top our battery performance list, coming in ahead of the HTC One max and the Motorola DROID RAZR MAXX. The 13MP rear-facing shooter is supposed to feature a pair of interchangeable lenses and OIS. With an f/2.0 aperture and its Owl image sensor, the OPPO N1 is supposed to be able to take great pictures in low-light conditions. The camera also is said to swivel so that the lens can face either direction on the phone.

The OPPO N1 is also expected to take the rear power and volume buttons of the LG G2 to the next level by featuring a rear touch panel in the upper part of the back panel. OPPO has put up a page that shows where the phone can be bought in various countries. In the U.S., it will be offered by the OPPO Style website and from Amazon.
