Oppo has started teasing a new smartphone in India. While the brand has shared the following teaser, it hasn’t revealed the name of the device. If rumors are to be believed, the brand could be teasing the next-generation F-series smartphones.

Oppo teases its next phone

The above teaser only hints at the general design of the phone and does not reveal anything significant. A report from last month revealed that Oppo’s next F-series phone could be called the Oppo F35 Pro.

The report revealed that it could be a rebranded version of China’s Oppo A7 Pro Max. However, it may arrive in India with market-specific changes.

It is speculated that the F35 Pro could be equipped with a 6.78-inch OLED panel offering a 1.5K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. Under the hood, it may feature the latest Snapdragon 4 Gen 5 chip coupled with UFS 3.1 storage. The base model of the device may offer 128GB of storage.

One of the major highlights of the phone is that it may pack a behemoth 10,000mAh battery. Despite its huge battery size, the handset may sport a slim profile of 8.57mm. For photography, it may feature a 50-megapixel front camera, and a 50-megapixel + 2-megapixel dual camera setup.

These specs are also available on the Oppo A7 Pro Max, so it remains to be seen what India-specific changes the F35 Pro will arrive with.

The post Upcoming Oppo F-series phone teased; Could it be the F35 Pro with a 10,000mAh battery? appeared first on Gizmochina.

The Oppo A7 Pro Max has raised the bar for battery-focused smartphones with its massive 10,000mAh battery, 80W charging and Snapdragon 4 Gen 5 chipset. It also packs a 6.78-inch 1.5K 120Hz OLED display and 50-megapixel cameras, making it an interesting option for users who prioritise endurance. However, the phone is currently limited to China, making alternatives more practical for buyers in other markets.

If you like the idea of a phone that can last for days but want stronger performance, different camera capabilities or a device that is already available in more markets, there are several alternatives worth considering. Here are five options that offer a different take on the A7 Pro Max formula.

Realme P4 Power 5G

A battery champion that matches the Oppo’s capacity while offering a faster chipset.

The Realme P4 Power 5G is perhaps the most direct alternative to the Oppo A7 Pro Max. Its 10,001mAh battery is technically larger than Oppo’s 10,000mAh cell, while 80W charging provides a similar charging speed. More importantly, the phone moves up to the MediaTek Dimensity 7400 Ultra, giving it a stronger performance foundation than the Snapdragon 4 Gen 5 inside the Oppo. It also includes a dedicated Hyper Vision+ AI chip.

The phone features a 6.8-inch 1.5K AMOLED display with a 144Hz refresh rate and up to 6,500 nits peak brightness. Its camera setup includes a 50-megapixel Sony OIS primary sensor, while the phone supports 4K video recording. The P4 Power 5G runs Realme UI 7 and comes with three Android OS upgrades and four years of software support.

OnePlus Nord CE 6

A balanced alternative that combines a large battery with stronger performance and gaming-focused features.

The OnePlus Nord CE 6 is a particularly relevant alternative for users who want the A7 Pro Max’s battery-focused approach without settling for an entry-level chipset. It packs an 8,000mAh battery with 80W SUPERVOOC charging and is powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 4. OnePlus also includes a dedicated Touch Reflex Chip, which supports up to 3,200Hz instantaneous touch sampling for faster response in games.

The phone features a 6.78-inch 1.5K AMOLED display with a 144Hz refresh rate, while its rear camera setup includes a 50-megapixel main camera with dual-axis OIS and a 2-megapixel auxiliary sensor. There is also a 32-megapixel autofocus selfie camera, with 4K video recording supported on both sides. The Nord CE6 runs OxygenOS 16 based on Android 16, and OnePlus also highlights six years of battery health, with a promise of two major OS upgrades and four years of security patches.

Vivo T5 Pro 5G

A long-lasting option that balances a huge battery with a more refined everyday experience.

The Vivo T5 Pro 5G is another strong choice for anyone who puts battery life near the top of the list. It carries a 9,020mAh fourth-generation silicon-anode battery, paired with the MediaTek Dimensity 7400-Turbo chipset.

The phone runs OriginOS 6 based on Android 16 and features a 50-megapixel Sony camera. Vivo has committed to three generations of OS upgrades and five years of security updates for the T5 Pro, giving it a clear advantage over many battery-focused phones that receive shorter software support.

Tecno Pova 8 5G

A battery-focused gaming phone that offers a large 8,000mAh cell and dedicated hardware for connectivity.

The Tecno Pova 8 5G is a strong alternative for buyers who want long battery life without dropping to an entry-level 5G platform. It packs an 8,000mAh battery with 45W wired charging and is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 7100 5G chipset. Tecno also includes dedicated G1 Signal Enhancement and SE1 Wi-Fi Enhancement chips to improve cellular and wireless connectivity.

The phone features a 144Hz display with TÜV Rheinland low-blue-light certification and military-grade durability. Its camera setup includes a 50-megapixel Sony LYTIA 600 main sensor and a 13-megapixel selfie camera, while the rear panel gets Tecno’s customisable Alive Matrix Display. The Pova 8 5G runs HiOS-based Android 16 with two major OS updates and three years of security patches.

Vivo S2

A stylish alternative that puts more emphasis on display, cameras and long-term software support.

The Vivo S2 offers a smaller 7,050mAh battery than the A7 Pro Max, but combines it with a more capable Dimensity 7360-Turbo processor. The 4nm chipset is paired with up to 12GB of RAM, giving the phone a more balanced performance profile for gaming, multitasking and everyday use. The battery supports 44W fast charging.

Its 6.83-inch 3D curved AMOLED display runs at 120Hz, while the camera system consists of a 50-megapixel primary sensor and a 2-megapixel depth sensor. There is also a 32-megapixel front camera, with both front and rear cameras supporting 4K video recording. The Vivo S2 runs OriginOS 6 based on Android 16 and is promised three generations of OS upgrades and five years of security updates.

Other phones worth considering

The upcoming Oppo F35 Pro could be particularly interesting because it is expected to follow a similar formula to the A7 Pro Max, with reports pointing to a 10,000mAh battery and Snapdragon 4 Gen 5 chipset. The Motorola Edge 70 Fusion is another option to watch, while last year’s Poco F7, Realme GT 7T and Oppo K13 Turbo Pro remain relevant alternatives with batteries of around 7,000mAh alongside significantly more powerful chipsets. These models offer a better balance between battery endurance and performance, making them worth considering for users who want strong gaming and everyday performance without giving up the benefits of a large battery.

The post Top 5 Alternatives to the Oppo A7 Pro Max in 2026 appeared first on Gizmochina.

Oppo is reportedly working on the F35 series of smartphones for India. If a new report by 91mobiles is to be believed, the F35 Pro could pack the largest battery ever seen on an Oppo phone. The report has also revealed the device’s launch timeline.

Oppo F35 Pro: What to expect?

Oppo has just launched the Oppo A7 Pro Max with a massive 10,000mAh battery in China. According to the aforementioned publication, a tweaked version of the device will be rebranded as the Oppo F35 Pro in India. It also claims that the device will go official by the end of this month, succeeding the F33 Pro, which was announced in April this year.

The report also mentions that, with a price tag of around Rs 40,000 to Rs 45,000, the F35 Pro will rival the likes of the Vivo S2, Motorola Edge 70 Pro, and OnePlus Nord CE 6. It does not specify what changes the F35 Pro will bring compared to the A7 Pro Max.

Oppo F35 Pro specifications (rumored)

Oppo used the “Selfie Expert” tagline for its F-series until the F9 series, which debuted in 2018, as those phones were known for their impressive front cameras. Interestingly, the A7 Pro Max features a 50-megapixel autofocus selfie camera. If the F35 Pro retains the same sensor, calling it a “Selfie Expert” would be fitting, even though Oppo is unlikely to revive the old marketing tagline. That said, it remains to be seen whether the F35 Pro will feature the same 50-megapixel front camera or if Oppo will opt for a lower-resolution sensor.

The F35 Pro is also expected to feature a 10,000mAh battery with support for 80W fast charging and 27W reverse charging. It could feature a 6.78-inch AMOLED display that offers a 1.5K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate.

Under the hood, it may feature the Snapdragon 4 Gen 5 chip, up to 12GB of RAM, and UFS 3.1 storage. On the back, it could be equipped with a 50-megapixel main camera, a 2-megapixel auxiliary lens, an LED flash, and a notification LED. It is also expected to offer an in-display fingerprint sensor, ColorOS 16-based Android 17, and an IP66/IP68/IP69-rated dust and water-resistant chassis.
