Oppo launched the F21 Pro (4G / 5G) in India back in April 2022. The 4G variant was subsequently introduced in Nepal in August. And the phone has now received its second price cut in Nepal. In this article, we will be discussing the specs, features, latest price, and availability of the Oppo F21 Pro Series (F21 Pro, F21 Pro 5G) in Nepal.

Oppo F21 Pro Series Overview:

To note, only the F21 Pro 4G version with Snapdragon 680 was launched in Nepal.

Performance and Memory

The most notable difference between the Oppo F21 and its Pro sibling lies in the chipset. The vanilla F21 Pro is powered by the new Snapdragon 680 processor while the Pro 5G gets the Snapdragon 695 treatment instead. Chipset aside, the F21 Pro series is available in a single memory configuration of 8GB RAM and 128GB internal storage.

Camera

Furthermore, the camera setup across the two devices is not exactly the same, though they do share some common elements. Both F21 Pro and F21 Pro 5G have a triple camera setup led by a 64MP primary and a 2MP monochrome sensor.

In addition, F21 Pro features a 2MP microscope camera while it is replaced by a macro lens on the 5G model. Similarly, for selfies, F21 Pro uses a 32MP sensor, whereas the F21 Pro 5G settles with a 16MP lens.

Oppo F21 Pro has a single orbit light around the sensor for notification. The 5G variant has an additional orbit light around the main sensor. These lights glow up to notify users of the notification.

Design and Display

Interestingly, the vanilla F21 Pro has an edge over its Pro sibling in the display department. While both of them feature a 6.43-inch FHD+ AMOLED panel, the F21 Pro 4G stands out because of the 90Hz refresh rate and Gorilla Glass 5 protection. These two are missing on the 5G variant.

Otherwise, the F21 Pro series boasts a 180Hz touch sampling rate and a left-aligned punch-hole camera cutout.

Over on the back, F21 Pro and F21 Pro 5G come with a new re-designed camera bump. Cosmic Black color option is common across the two models, but Rainbow Spectrum and Sunset Orange are exclusive to the F21 Pro 5G and F21 Pro, respectively. The thing to note here is that the Sunset Orange variant has a fiberglass leather back.

Rest of the Specs

Fueling the Oppo F21 Pro series is a 4,500mAh battery that supports 33W fast charging. The phones can go from 0 to 100% in just 63 minutes with a compatible charger.
