Oppo Neo 7 officially announced: another Snapdragon 410-powered smartphone

Oppo today unveiled a brand new Android smartphone from its Neo series (which also includes handsets like the Neo 5 and Neo 5s). Called Neo 7, the new device runs Oppo's Color OS 2.1 (based on Android Lollipop), and has a mirror-like finish on the back.

The Oppo Neo 7 sports a 5-inch display with a pretty low pixel resolution for today's standards (540 x 960), while being powered by a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 processor clocked at 1.2 GHz. These details alone are already suggesting the fact that the handset will be affordable once it hits the market - though its official price hasn't been unveiled.

The new Oppo smartphone features LTE connectivity, dual SIM support, 1 GB of RAM, 16 GB of internal memory, and microSD card support. Moreover, there's an 8 MP camera with LED flash on the back, plus a 5 MP camera on the front (this can use the display as a flash for selfies). Weighing 141 grams and measuring 142.7 x 71.7 x 7.55 mm, the Oppo Neo 7 includes a 2420 mAh battery.

On the official Neo 7 product page, Oppo mentions the fact that there's a US version of the smartphone, alongside international and Indian models. The handset should be released starting the coming weeks. Would you buy one?
