Oppo F29 Pro vs Oppo F29: Design and Display

While the two models are from the same family, there are plenty of differences like design and display. From the back, you can easily differentiate the two over their camera modules. But apart from just the look, the Oppo F29 Pro also has a stronger Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 glass for protection over the Gorilla Glass 7 on the F29. The F29 Pro is both lighter and slimmer, measuring 7.6mm in thickness and 180 grams in weight (over F29’s 7.7mm + 185 gram body).

The vanilla model sports a tall 6.7-inch AMOLED display with an FHD+ resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate, and up to 1200 nits of peak brightness. Meanwhile, the Oppo F29 Pro has a slightly smaller 6.67-inch screen AMOLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate and FHD+ resolution as well. But this screen also has a higher 2,100 nits peak brightness.

Specifications

Under the hood, the more expensive variant packs the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 SoC, which is paired with up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. However, the Oppo F29 is equipped with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 SoC. A massive 6,500mAh battery pack powers the more affordable model along with 45W wired fast charging.

On the other hand, you get a smaller (but still huge) 6,000mAh cell on the F29 Pro with faster 80W wired fast charging. For photography, both devices feature a 50MP + 2MP dual camera setup on the rear and a 16MP shooter for selfies and video calls on the front. The duo run on the Android 15 OS based ColorOS 15 custom skin out of the box with 2 years of guaranteed OS upgrades and 3 years of security patches.

Pricing

Despite their rugged bodies, both smartphones are pretty thin and light. Although, pricing is another factor that differentiates the two. You can get your hands on the Oppo F29 right now for just 23,999 INR. But for a couple of thousand more, the Oppo F29 Pro can be purchased for a 27,999 INR starting price.

Oppo’s latest F29 series is officially hitting shelves in India. The standard F29 model will go on sale tomorrow while the F29 Pro which was initially set for an April 1 launch, will now be available earlier on March 29. Here are all the details you need to know.

Pricing and Availability

The Oppo F29 will be available in Solid Purple and Glacier Blue, with two storage options:

₹23,999 for 8GB + 128GB
₹25,999 for 8GB + 256GB

Meanwhile, the F29 Pro comes in Marble White and Granite Black, with three configurations:

₹27,999 for 8GB + 128GB
₹29,999 for 8GB + 256GB
₹31,999 for 12GB + 256GB

Both models will be sold via Oppo’s official e-store, Flipkart, Amazon, and major retail outlets across India.

What’s Under the Hood?

The Oppo F29 Pro sports a 6.67-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, FHD+ resolution, Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 protection, and a peak brightness of 2,100 nits. It’s powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 Energy chipset, paired with up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage.

The camera setup includes a 50MP primary sensor and a 2MP monochrome sensor at the back, while a 16MP selfie camera sits up front. A 6,000mAh battery with 80W fast charging keeps things running, all packed in a slim 7.6mm body. It also boasts an IP66, IP68, and IP69 rating for dust and water resistance.

The standard Oppo F29 shares much of the same DNA, featuring a slightly larger 6.7-inch AMOLED display, though with Corning Gorilla Glass 7i and a lower peak brightness of 1,200 nits.

It swaps the chipset for a Snapdragon 6 Gen 1, alongside 8GB of RAM and up to 256GB of storage. The camera hardware mirrors the Pro model, but the battery capacity jumps to 6,500mAh—albeit with slower 45W charging. It maintains the same durability ratings and measures just 7.7mm thick.
