What the Critics Are Saying...

The Oppo R9s has the specs to compete with high-end phones but is sold at a mid-range price. But both the software and camera have deep flaws that may frustrate the heavy user.

For the hardware you’re getting it’s great value, but the OS is the weak link here.

Solid performer that falls short slightly on some fronts. Still a decent high-spec mid-range entry.

Although its camera is the best we've seen at this price point, the OPPO R9s has too many other issues for us to recommend it over competing options. If you're looking for a great camera, we suggest that you either compromise a bit with an alternative mid-range smartphone or pay more for a true flag...

The Oppo R9s feels more expensive than it has any right to. It feels a lot -- a lot -- like an iPhone 7, both in its construction and design and the simplicity of its straightforward grid-based interface.
