Oppo Ulike 2 goes on sale in China with 5MP front-facing camera

Remember the days when just having a front-facing camera was amazing? On Monday, the Oppo Ulike 2 was launched in China and the handset features a 5MP camera up front. The device is configured for TD-SCDMA, which means it will be found on China Mobile only, and is priced at CNY 2,298 which translates into about $370 USD. 

The Oppo Ulike 2 also has some camera filters that show you off in a better light, shall we say. These filters include one for face slimming and another for skin whitening. The rest of the specs that have been revealed include a 4.5 inch LCD screen with resolution of 540 x 960 (qHD) and the camera on back is 8MP.  If you are in China, but not a customer of China Mobile, the good news is that a WCDMA model is apparently in the cards.

There is no word if this model will be making it to the U.S., although filters that make you look thinner and provide a photographic "face-lift" might find favor with some Americans, the same ones who will love snapping self-portraits with the front-facing 5MP shooter.
