The Red color model is only available for 6GB RAM variant. The handset will be up for pre-order till November 3rd and will go on sale from November 4th in Philippines.
Commenting on the announcement, ice President of OPPO International Mobile Business Sky said:
The A.I. Beauty Recognition technology is simply emulating the abilities of a professional photographer, who would bring years and years of technical skills and experience when taking a portrait. An F5 user thus gains that similar ability to capture selfies that are of the highest quality.
The personalization is also important, because the blanket or one-style-for-all problem with today’s beautification software is also solved. For example, enhancements will not be soft or feminine for male subjects. Children or babies will not receive enhancements that make them look like adults.
