THE global smartphone brand OPPO (www.oppo.com/ph) just set another groundbreaking technology during the official unveiling of the F5 last week: the AI Beauty Recognition, a technology designed to personalize beautification based on personal facial traits of a subject, giving a customized selfie that is unique to every person.
The OPPO F5 was officially launched led by brand ambassadors Sarah Geronimo and Alden Richards, together with brand influencers Joshua Garcia, Julia Barretto, Toni Gonzaga, Gabbi Garcia, Janella Salvador, Apple David and Carla Lizardo.
OPPO’s AI Beauty Recognition technology learns the specific facial features of different people from a database of millions of human faces spanning the globe. Professional photographers and makeup artists were consulted during the research and development process, resulting in the AI technology having the ability to capture the real you that can help selfies look more attractive and natural.
In addition, the AI would recognize the subjects’ skin tone and type, gender and age, match them against its database and subsequently make beautification enhancements that are personalized for each individual in the selfie.
The AI can analyze up to a million faces and with more than 200 facial feature spots scanned, it is able to detect your face in detail and refine your selfie more than just any other phones.
“OPPO has yet again created an opportunity that will truly elevate everyone’s selfie experience. The AI Beauty Recognition technology feature of the OPPO F5 allows anyone to take selfies that are not only crisp, but also natural looking. This is because OPPO wants you to capture the real you—capturing every natural moment of your life that’s worth having and sharing,” said Stephen Cheng, brand marketing manager of OPPO Philippines.
At the launch, Sarah Geronimo said, “Ever since I used OPPO, I’ve been very impressed with the quality because of the supernatural photos. Every time I take a selfie, sobrang natural lang tignan kaya the photos always look good. So when they showed me the new F5, I was really amazed kasi mas naging maganda ang selfies ko. OPPO’s front cam has always been remarkable pero ngayon, it’s even much better because of OPPO’s latest AI Beauty Recognition technology.”
“Mas madali na mag-take ng selfies because of the sleek design, plus full-screen display feature, and not to mention, kaya niya na mag-detect ng gender so it’s easier for us. Then, I was able to try the AI Beauty Recognition technology and I must say that my selfie really turned out great. It really captures the real you,” Alden Richards said.
The F5 features a 20-MP front camera with an F2.0 aperture and a 16-MB rear camera with F1.8 aperture. Compared with other competitors’ 13-MP or 16-MP camera in the same price range, the F5 has a higher resolution (2160×1080) and better photo quality. The cameras can deliver Bokeh effects and the front HDR solves any overexposure issues.
The F5 will be OPPO’s first 6.0-inch full-screen FHD+ display device, giving the user a vivid visual enjoyment without the need to increase the size of the phone. It features a high-resolution 2160 x 1080 dpi screen with 18:9 aspect ratio.
The new smartphone follows OPPO’s streamlined design philosophy—the sleek unibody offers a visually slim appearance without any cutoffs, with a gracefully curved body that fits well in the palm, expressing a simple and elegant look.
A user’s palm will not feel tired even after using the phone for a long time, either from playing games or chatting. The 0.4-mm laser string is carved onto the phone—a delicate linear finish that adds detail to the phone body.
The F5 comes with another technology that perfectly suits everyone’s convenience needs. The Facial Unlock is the new face-recognition technology that recognizes its user and unlocks the phone.
This feature is perfect for people who are constantly on the go, a quick and much easier way to accessing your phone.
OPPO’s very first full-screen display is priced at P15,990. The F5 goes on sale starting on November 4. All preordered F5 units will come with an Olike Bluetooth Speaker worth P2,990.
