Today the second smartphone manufacturer in China released a new phone based on the much-popular R11s as the best New Year gift. The Oppo R11S Star Screen New Year Edition has got a few appearance changes, but the hardware remains the same. However, this is the highest variant of the company’s current flagship, and it’s priced at 3199 yuan ($483) only. It will become available for purchase starting December 25.
The only changes have been made on the back. The Oppo R11S Star Screen New Year Edition comes with a unique full-screen, as the name suggests. But the company has also cooperated with the world’s leading luxury suppliers in the mobile phone industry to come in with a small 18K gold-plated Lucky Dog Zodiac symbol made of new materials and processes. Its diameter is 4.95mm and it has a three-dimensional appearance.
