Back in China, OPPO released a new phone series with the K1. This new model’s highlight feature is the in-display fingerprint scanner, and that is significant given its price point. However, the K1 is stuck with using a MicroUSB port, unlike its more expensive siblings.
Other key features of the K1 include a Snapdragon 660 processor, 16-megapixel + 2-megapixel rear cameras, 25-megapixel front camera, and a 3500mAh battery.
