The news was first shared on Twitter by @Abhishek Yadav and is already reflected on online listings on popular e-retail websites that have these smartphone models in stock. On the social media platform, Abhishek shared a small number of models along with their new revised pricing. This includes the Oppo A11K, which is now available for 8,990 INR (roughly 120 US Dollars). While this was the original pricing of the device, it is still notable since it was launched back in June of last year.

Oppo revised pricing of their Oppo "A" series models from July 1, 2021 in India.

New Pricing
– Oppo A11K ₹8,990

– Oppo A15 2GB+32GB ₹9,490

Similarly, the Oppo A15 series also saw a price revision, with its 2GB + 32GB variant now being sold for 9,490 INR (roughly 127 US Dollars) while the 3GB + 32GB variant is now available for 10,490 INR (roughly 140 US Dollars). Again, while this isn’t exactly a rise from its launch price, it is still close to its original offering from October 2020. Usually, the prices of smartphones drop within a couple of months, which is especially true for mid range and budget devices.

Lastly, the A15s is now available for 12,490 INR (roughly 167 US Dollars), up from 11,490 INR (roughly 154 US Dollars), while the Oppo A53‘s 8GB + 128GB variant is now priced at 17,990 INR (roughly 241 US Dollars). This also marks a 1,000 INR rise from the original 16,990 INR launch price (roughly 228 US Dollars). Recently, a number of brands have revised the pricing of their products in India.

This includes Xiaomi, which raised the prices for its Mi TVs. Similarly, even the Redmi Note 10 saw its third price hike in India earlier this month. At the moment, the world is suffering from a shortage of semiconductors and various firms are also struggling to maintain a consistent supply for a number of their products. The automobiles and the consumer electronics market are two such affected industries.

An OPPO smartphone with model number PEFM00 was spotted at the 3C certification platform and Geekbench’s database in January. Earlier this month, the mysterious phone received approval from China’s TENAA authority. However, the listing went unnoticed. Here is everything that is known about the handset so far.

The TENAA listing states that the OPPO PEFM00 smartphone measures 164 x 75.4 x 7.9mm and it has a 6.52-inch screen. The handset has a 4,100mAh battery. The 3C listing of the phone had revealed that it carries support for 10W charging. The TENAA and 3C listing also show that it is a 4G LTE smartphone.

At Geekbench, the OPPO PEFM00 was spotted with 4 GB of RAM and an MT6765V/CB chipset, which appears to the Helio P35 SoC. It was found to be running on Android 10 OS. It had scored 174 and 989 in the single-core and multi-core tests of Geekbench, respectively.

The images of the phone that have appeared at TENAA have revealed that it has a waterdrop notch screen, and its rear shell has a square-shaped camera housing and a fingerprint scanner. Its right edge has a volume rocker and a power key.

The specifications and images of the OPPO PEFM00 smartphone suggest that it could be a rebadged version of the OPPO A15s phone that debuted in India back in December 2020. The A15s has a 6.52-inch HD+ display, Helio P35 chipset, 4 GB of RAM, 64 GB / 128 GB storage choices, an 8-megapixel front camera, a 13-megapixel (main) + 2-megapixel (macro) + 2-megapixel (depth) triple camera system, and a 4,230mAh battery with 10W charging support. With important certifications for China launch in tow, it appears that OPPO PEFM00 may go official this month. Probably, it may arrive in China with a different moniker.

Back in October, OPPO launched the OPPO A15 smartphone in India. Ahead of the launch, the device along with the A15s was spotted on several certifications. Now, the supposed sibling, the OPPO A15s appears on Malaysia’s SIRIM certification website suggesting a global launch.

As tipped by Mukul Sharma, a device with model number CPH2179 appears on the SIRIM database. Now, a month ago, a device with the same model number appeared on Singapore’s IMDA and Europe’s EEC certification listed under OPPO. And among this, the IMDA website revealed that the device will be called A15s.

Coming back, the model number is listed as a mobile station with GSM, LTE support. This indicates that the A15s will come with 4G support just like the A15. Not to mention this device has already got India’s BIS certification recently. All this indicates that the device could launch soon globally.

Besides, we think the ‘s’ in the A15 moniker suggests that it could share specs with the OPPO A15. However, we aren’t really sure if it’s a rebrand of OPPO A15 for other markets because their model numbers(CPH2185, CPH2179) are different. Anyway, OPPO hasn’t confirmed anything about this device, and hence, take this guess with a pinch of salt.
