Oppo f21 pro and pro 5g is a very overpriced phones
In my country, the F21 Pro 5G is similarly priced to the Samsung A53 5G. I'm a little sceptical about Exynos SoC but I would rather go for it than get the F21 Pro 5G. No HRR, no OIS, crappy 8MP ultrawide, shorter software support, no IP rating and so on, what a joke.
When you know the SoC is terrible so you just market it as a "Qualcomm Snapdragon 5G SoC".
Honestly.

Too overpriced.

Claude Stanchev, 17 Apr 2022Xiaomi 11i, Moto Edge 20, Realme 9 Pro+ and GT Master are far better than those. Yeah, true. Even 2021's phones like Realme GT Master and Poco F3 are much better choices, especially since these older models are going on sale very frequently now. I just bought Poco F3 8/256gb for US$250 during 4.4 sale, and it already got update for Android 12. These 'new' phones from Oppo still on Android 11 and will need to wait a few months to get Android 12.

But it's starting to wear down the 2 brands reputation because they just aren't premium enough to command such high prices. In my country for example, sales of new Oppo and Vivo phones are really slow at launch due to the high launch prices. Most buyers just wait for price drop or just go for the competitively-priced Samsung and Xiaomi.
A more suitable option should be added: "Are these phones belated April's Fool jokes?"

Anonymous, 17 Apr 2022When phones like this appear, it should be an option in the poll, "Lol, no"I fully agree 👍
Anders, 17 Apr 2022680 and 695 are garbage SOCs, terrible cameras too and overpriced. Avoid at all costsThey are not, sd 680 can be found in a lot of phones under $150. No soc in that price point can match it, its competitor are likes of Helio G80, G70, unisoc 600 series etc.
Same to sd 695 lot of phones have it around $200.
Because some oem overprice them doesnt mean they are Bad.

Well they arent bad but in android world for same or better price there is lot more ooptions to take and thinks about.
Anders, 17 Apr 2022680 and 695 are garbage SOCs, terrible cameras too and overpriced. Avoid at all costsNot gonna lie but the SD680 and SD695 are some pretty awesome SoCs for cheap and mid-rangers, it's just the company who makes them look worse by putting them in crap phones and make them look bad, for e.g, the F21 Pro 5G (aka Reno7 Lite/ 7 Z), the Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G/ 11 Pro+ 5G for India/ 11E Pro for China, or SD680 on this Reno7 4G/ F21 Pro. The Snapdragon 695 on the sub-200-euro iQOO Z6 5G, or Snapdragon 680 on the sub-140 like the Redmi 10C are quite nice for the price tho. Or they should have used 4K@30fps (like how Samsung did on the A23) and that would be better.
I have recently went to buy phone, salesman are literally begging to show phone features, I ma guessing they have good margin over samsung and Xiaomi phones, but I have purchased redmi 10c.

Same phone will be up for voting in sometime again under some new name by VIVO REALME IQOO or ONE+.
