Chandigarh : OPPO India has introduced the F27 Pro+ 5G – the country’s first IP66, IP68 and IP69-rated Super-Rugged, Monsoon-Ready smartphone. The F27 Pro+ will be available in two colours—Dusk Pink and Midnight Navy—and retails at INR 27,999 with 128GB storage and INR 29,999 for the 256GB variant. The smartphone boasts OPPO’s full-device protection solution—a damage-proof 360-degree Armour Body—that shields the device from drops and scratches. This is in addition to a four-year durable 5,000mAh battery.
Commenting on the launch, Savio D’Souza, Director of Product Communications at OPPO India, said, “The OPPO F27 Pro+ 5G meets the needs of customers who are always on the move, and demand a durable smartphone that can keep up with them, whether rain or sunshine. It is the only smartphone to carry all three—the IP66, IP68 and IP69—ratings and meets the highest standards against dust and water damage. Additionally, its 360° Armour Body provides inside-out protection, certified by the Swiss SGS Premium Performance standard and MIL-STD-810H Method 516.8. All that and essentials like a vivid, borderless display, stellar cameras, and a very capable processor are packed into a slim, lightweight, and stylish build that is sturdy and flaunt-worthy in equal measure.”
Waterproof and Ultimate Durability
The OPPO F27 Pro+ 5G is the first phone to boast all three ratings of the highest levels of dust ingress and water resistance with IP66, IP68 and IP69; these standards specifically certify that the phone can withstand high-pressure, high-temperature water jets and even water immersion for up to 30 minutes at a time.
The phone’s durability goes beyond dust and water ingress protection owing to its damage-proof 360-degree Armour Body protection, which is made possible by internal dampening materials like sponges to enhance drop resistance, a high-strength, high-thermal conductivity aluminium alloy to protect the motherboard, and Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 on the screen.
The OPPO F27 Pro+ 5G’s focus on endurance is validated by the Swiss SGS Premium Performance 5 Star rating for passing multi-angle drop tests and for its extreme high shock and frequency shock resistance. The smartphone has also passed the MIL-STD-810H Method 516.8 standard that tests for functional shock, transportation shock, fragility, transit drop, and crash hazard shock.
The device has undergone 10 major design enhancements, including a fully waterproof screen and waterproofing on openings like the microphone, speaker, SIM card slot, and USB port to meet the rigorous rating standards. The microphone and earphone speakers are protected by a waterproof breathable film that keeps
