I had a wonderful time in Pico De Loro in Batangas this week. It might have been a little rainy but that ain't enough to dampen our spirits as we were about to witness the unveiling of OPPO Philippines' flagship phone the OPPO F1S. It's also being launched as we speak in different countries like Korea and the ASEAN region and more people are rejoicing over what's dubbed as the ultimate Selfie Expert, a feat that's cemented it's place in the market as they're now number 3 in the Philippines. I don't doubt them as much because if you hear the hardware specifications it'll make sense. The phone manufacturer also introduced their latest influencers, an array of talented celebrities from GMA and ABSCBN.

Gorgeous Janine Gutierrez was one of them, she looked taller from the last time I saw her, I dunno. Or it might be her heels, but she was really gorgeous! |
This OPPO F1S has a 1.31 inch sensor, a 16MP front camera that takes those lovely selfies. How can you not call this the ultimate selfie phone if it's that powerful to begin with? They've been revolutionizing this genre since the late 2000's and the OPPO F1S has it's own technology driven Beautify Mode, Auto Mode Screen Flash, plus various filters that can even enhance your pictures further. You can also shoot photos via voice commands or their palm shutter that makes it more efficient.
You can also rely on finger print activated app launch as this smartphone doesn't just open it, it activates apps for you with just one touch. You can connect with your friends online, not just to have lovely selfies but faster processing. It's got an octa core, a 3GB RAM, 2.5D Corning Gorilla Glass 4 screen so it's tough than your old phones. It's also got a metal body and the Color OS 3.0 that can extend your phone usage via power saving mode. It's got tons of other modes and features plus a whopping 3075 mAh battery that can last you all throughout the day! That only means it is impressive on paper, even better in real life!

Home Credit is their partner and offers the OPPO F1s at an affordable 6 month installment plan that you can ay for as low as Php 2,165, 0% interest per month. Now that's enough reason to get one without hurting your wallet right? Prices start at Php 12,990 which is one of the most affordable ones in the market with that premium finish and specs bar none. Pros: I like how bright it is in instances I was in the shade or indoors.
As for me, I had fun doing this with my peers in the blogging industry. I also loved how humble and kind the celebrities were while we did an Amazing Race type of adventure around the resort. Thanks to OPPO for letting us experience the phone for a few hours, at least we got the gist on how it works. Cons is just the gyro part which felt funny when I played Pokemon Go, but it does work with it don't get me wrong. Anybody could live with that at this price point. Find it in stores and official retailers nationwide! (Pre Order starts August 12-18 so hurry!)
