The Oppo R829T caused a stir yesterday when it was first misidentified as the Oppo Fine 7, then later as a budget Snapdragon 600 phone, but new specs reveal something much less exciting.
The excitement about this stylish all glass Oppo phone has dimmed a little today after details from the Ministry of Communication revealed that it won’t have a Snapdragon CPU after all but a quad-core Meditaek chip. The listing also shows the phone will have a 5-inch 960 x 540 display, 1GB RAM, 8 mega-pixel rear camera and 5 mega-pixel front.
Like the Oppo R8297 the the R829T will be a China only phone as it will only come with TD-SCDMA support at launch.

HD, not 540p,
Weak
i’m so disappointed
bad. As it seems we can’t expect Oppo to launch a cost x benefit phone. It’s always overpriced
That’s what you get when it is built well.
lower specs THAN first believed
5″ qHD? Seriously OPPO? Fail.
Could be worse. I’ve seen 6inch 800×480 phones
lol,that is just sad. I mean,if other manufacturers can offer 720p at $200 in the likes of moto x,xiaomi hongmi,huawei honor 2,you’d think other manufactures would be worried about offering lesser ppi….especially in china where even $100 phones are 1080p…
