Oppo to Launch Dual-Mode 5G Phone by the End of 2019

Oct. 30, 2019

Representing Oppo at the event earlier this month, Tang shared his insights on the current state of 5G and the future products, applications and cutting-edge experiences set to be enabled by the next-generation of connectivity.“The unrelenting efforts from OPPO and other industry peers have paved the way for the rapid adoption of 5G, with users in select countries and regions already becoming early adopters of OPPO’s 5G smartphones”, Tang said in a statement.

“We hope our next-generation dual-mode 5G offerings will deliver a superior experience to more consumers in more markets globally, making 5G readily available to a wider consumer base worldwide”, he added.

It’s worth noting here that even as 5G is expected to start becoming more mainstream next year, it will likely remain MIA for the foreseeable future in India, with telecom companies trying to postpone the spectrum auctions citing high costs and low revenues. In fact, India is one of the few remaining major economies to have yet to start commercial 5G trials, with recent reports suggesting itmight take another 5-6 yearsfor 5G to be fully deployed in the country.
