The Android smart phone market has grown exponentially in
the last few years. Well known and small manufactures have benefited from
overwhelming smart phone sale that has increased their profits. We as  consumers have become obsessed with the smart
phone technology and tend to upgrade our smart phones almost every year.  The smart phone technology has become a
fashion trend where consumers want faster chip, more RAM, cool design, and the
best camera on their smart phones. And rightly so, because we spend a lot of money
for this little wonder device. While majority of the consumers are familiar
with the big names and giants like Samsung, Apple, HTC, and Sony, few people
however, are familiar with the name like Oppo.
Oppo is  well known
for their Blue-Ray and other electronic devices, but in the last few years they
have focused on smart phone industry as well. While Oppo has produced many
smart phones, we are not going to talk about their past smart phone models.
Instead we will focus on their latest flagship called the Oppo Find 7 which
comes in two different variations:
Oppo Find 7
- With a
2560 x 1440 resolution and 538 PPI display and 3GM of Ram
Oppo Find 7a
– In this model Oppo provides  a 1080p HD
display with 2GB of Ram

So far this
year we have seen smart phone releases from Samsung (Galaxy s5), HTC (ONE M8), and
Sony (Xperia Z2), and yet we are awaiting the release of  LG G3 that is due late this summer.  Although the Galaxy
S5,HTC One M8, and the Xperia Z2 are indeed fabulous  phones, but none of them has the same specs as
the Oppo Find 7 (2560 x 1440 pixels). We
have seen both of these phones and played around with them. The colors and
viewing angle in the 2560 x 1440  display
 are crisp and vibrant.  The price of Oppo Find 7 beats its
competition. I believe we have sufficient reasons to believe the Oppo Find 7 is
the best smart of phone of the year yet. One thing is for sure, the launch of new smart phones has just started this year , and we are still waiting for the smart phone releases
from Apple, LG and Samsung’s Note4 phablet. Unfortunately Oppo Find 7 is not
widely available and popular in the US market. We hope in the next few years the US carries
give this phone a series consideration.
