by Daniel Gubalane on Jun 13, 2017

OPPO Philippines launched the new OPPO A57 in the country today. It features the ability to take selfies with bokeh effect even without a dual selfie camera.

Bokeh refers to the blurred backgrounds of photos while keeping the subject in sharp focus. The phone achieves this via software though since it only has a lone 16MP selfie camera.

A 2900mAh battery powers the device.
