    The official images available on the microsite confirm that the Oppo F25 Pro 5G will feature a punch-hole display, which seems to be integrated with a fingerprint sensor. The back panel of the device has a triple-camera unit and an LED flash. It will be sold in two shades, maroon and light blue. The final marketing shades of these variants are not known yet.

    Oppo F25 Pro 5G Specifications (Rumored)

    Oppo is yet to reveal any information about the specifications of the Oppo F25 Pro 5G. Rumors surrounding the device claim that it could be a tweaked or rebranded version of the Oppo Reno 11F 5G, which is available in some Southeast Asian markets.

    The Reno 11F 5G has a 6.7-inch Amole display that offers an FHD+ resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate, and Panda glass protection. The device runs on the Dimensity 7050 chipset and ColorOS 14-based Android 14.

    The Reno 11F 5G ships with 8 GB of LPDDR4x RAM, 256 GB of UFS 3.1 storage, and a 5,000mAh battery with 67W fast charging. It has a 32-megapixel camera on the front, and its back panel has a 64-megapixel primary camera, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide lens, and a 2-megapixel macro camera.
