Oppo A17 appeared in leaks over the weekend, and now the phone is official. The smartphone comes with a Mediatek chipset, big battery and dual cameras, and its key selling point is the back panel that has a texture that imitates leather.
This entirely new phone has a 6.56” LCD with HD+ resolution and no fancy refresh rate, just 60 Hz. There is a waterdrop notch for the 5 MP f/2.2 selfie camera with fixed focus. The dual shooters on the back are a 50 MP f/1.8 cam with AF and a 2 MP depth sensor.
The chipset is a Helio G35, similar to a handful of other Oppo A smartphones, including the A16, A16s, and A16K. RAM is listed as 4 GB which can be slightly expanded at the expense of the 64 GB storage.
Oppo A17 key features
The official specs sheet is missing at that moment and third-party retailers also cannot provide info on whether a micro SD port is present or not. We do know the Oppo A17 is dual-SIM.
The battery of the A17 is 5,000 mAh, charged through a micro USB port. Other features include IPX4 water resistance, a fingerprint scanner embedded in the power key, and ColorOS 12.1. The leather back is available both in the Lake Blue and Midnight Black colors.

The phone is currently available in Malaysia for MYR599, which is about $130. It is also up for pre-order in Singapore but the set price of SGD999 is a placeholder - it should cost under SGD200 once the sale begins in three weeks.
