OPPO, The Selfie Expert, recently announced the latest addition to its popular F-series – the OPPO F9, with VOOC Flash Charging technology that offers two hours of talk with just five minutes of charging.

In alignment with the promotional efforts for the device, Oppo Sri Lanka has appointed blogger and social media personality Dilshan Senaratne as a key opinion leader. Dilshan who has been a key opinion leader for Oppo for previous Oppo devices has been engaged with the brand for a number of years leading up to the appointment.

With several breakthroughs such as an industry first 6.3 inch ‘Water Drop Screen’ design, high screen to body ratio of 90.8%, unique gradient colour design and a 3500 mAh battery, the OPPO F9 offers much more in addition to an excellent selfie function, an immersive experience, fast charging and long-lasting battery.

In the Asian market, OPPO also released a brand new TVC featuring the Brand Ambassadors – Deepika Padukone and Sidharth Malhotra. The TVC titled ‘5 Minute Charge, 2 Hour Talk’ revolves around a day in the life of two characters played by Deepika and Sidharth. It highlights OPPO F9 VOOC Flash Charging capability that enables a user to be connected to their loved ones even with a 5-minute charge on a low battery.

Senaratne is a blogger and social media personality who creates content around the themes of lifestyle, travel, technology and marketing. Having started out as a journalist, Dilshan has evolved to play the roles of a marketer and media consultant with special relevance to the technology sector.

“I have engaged with Oppo for a number of years now in the capacity of a social media influencer and key opinion leader for previous models of the brand. My lifestyle as a young professional is highly demanding and the mobile device I use plays a critical role in my daily life. Oppo has continuously produced devices that were able to meet the demands of my lifestyle, not only professionally but also in areas of entertainment, social media use and even gaming. I’ve had the chance to test the Oppo F9 Starry Purple edition for a few days now and I really like the user experience it offers. The dual rear camera, battery life and display clarity are the most interesting features for me particularly and I’m happy to have been appointed once again as a key opinion leader by a global brand like Oppo,” commented Senaratne.

As an increasingly popular smartphone brand among young people, OPPO taps into their tastes in fashion and style to design products with far-reaching appeal. With gradient colours, the youth can showcase their personality and attitude.

OPPO has three gradient colour combinations – Sunrise Red, Twilight Blue and Starry Purple. The Gradient Spraying Technology and “Frame Gradient” tech used by OPPO realises a perfect combination of gradient design on the back and the user a more unified viewing experience. In the sunlight, the F9 shines like a crystal gem and flowing water. The colour design aesthetics of the OPPO F9 reflects both OPPO’s design ideology and insights into what aesthetics appeals to young consumers around the globe.
