This time Oppo designed a different notch style which contains only a single front camera, just like the Essential Phone notch design. However, the notch seems bit smaller than the Essential Phone and it’s quite like a mid-circular or waterdrop styled notch without any earpiece or sensor. The Oppo F9 Pro also contains the same notch.
Oppo R17 Specifications and Features
The Oppo R17 will come with a massive 6.4-inch Full HD+ FullView 19:9 aspect ratio notched display. The display resolution will be 2280×1080 pixels, protected with Corning Gorilla Glass 6 on the top. The handset does have the In-Display Fingerprint Sensor instead of the physical fingerprint sensor.

The handset will sport a 3,500mAh battery with VOOC Flash Charging, which can provide 2 hours of talk time on 5 minutes of charge.
