It looks like the Oppo/OnePlus phone crossovers didn’t end with the OnePlus One as a new phone launched in China appears to be just a renamed OPX.
Codenamed the Oppo A30, the new 6.9mm phone was apparently spotted at a store in Shenzhen with a price tag of 1999 Yuan. The phone in the images shares the same white and gold colouring as the Champagne edition of the OPX, the same camera placement and same CNC machining to the chassis.
In fact the only differences between the OPX and the new Oppo A30 are that the Oppo runs ColourOS and the Oppo logo.

Could Oppo’s and OnePlus’s cooperation extend to the Oppo Find 9? Is it possible that the Oppo Find 9 and upcoming OnePlus 3 are one and the same phone?
OPPO is the principal investor in OnePlus, this is as much of a “co-operation” between the two as ZTE and Nubia. OnePlus is nothing but a shell company for Oppo. Of course the OnePlus 3 and Oppo Find 9 will look similar.
Oppo launched some phones last year, but they mostly skipped their flagship until 2016, maybe because the problematic 810, and maybe because Xiaomi was going to skip until 2016 too, now that Mi5 was finally launched, we’re may see some Oppo Find 9 news.
Oppo didn’t release a Find last year.
