Oppo has been aggressive with new smartphone launches in its affordable “A” series throughout last year (2021). The Chinese tech giant is expected to follow the same footprints this year as well. With us hitting just the second week of January 2022, the brand is already done with a launch (Oppo A96) and is expected to add another model soon in India. The next model in offing is said to be the Oppo A16K. It isn’t an entirely new handset and is making it to the Indian shelves almost two months later its international launch.
Is Oppo A16K India Launch Soon?
The Oppo A16K is tipped to launch sometime soon in India. The leaked poster of the upcoming Oppo budget phone in India comes via Mahesh Telecom. The poster shows the same identical design as the international model with a waterdrop notch display and a gradient rear panel accommodating a square-shaped camera module on the top-left corner.
The Oppo A16K’s leaked poster image also shows the configuration and pricing along with all the key features. The variant listed is 3GB RAM and 32GB storage configuration. The price for this variant is mentioned Rs. 10,490. There is no confirmation if the handset will be launched with any other RAM or storage option or just the aforementioned model. But the report hints at the availability of just the listed variant. Also, the shades available would be black and blue.
