  • Loving this phone so much! The camera was great! No regret on buying it 😘

  • hi... i am using the oppo R1 for about 2 years and everything goes well n excellent.. just my storage its quiet small, its only 8gb. so, my comment for this phone is its great but maybe bcause of made in china, its quite unsuitable for the updates of playstore and its not support the playstore application mostly i guess. but i am really amazed by the durability of this phone unlike the most popular phone like iphone n samsung. i had an accident in a motocycle for about 4 months ago and the screen cracked seriously but it just continue functioning like always.. nothing problem. i had other accident like 2 or 3 times after that buat the phone just act like awesome. and lately, the phone shows that it cant take it any longer to hold the damage and started the problems... anyway i love this phone! i am looking toward oppo r7 lite.. cant wait to have that in my hand!!!

I think this is the bug in this phone so can someone please help me with it.

  • hello guys,been using oppo r1 for 7 months now,so far what i've heard bout the issue of phone heating is actually normal just like any other phone.common sense guys,when u use ur phone playing music,online or youtubing for quite some time ofcourse it'll heated up a bit.and while ur using it for a long time when charging,it is not healthy for ur phone.so far this oppo r1 is really good.the system running smooth,lots of shortcuts function.and oh yeah what i like bout this oppo r1 is the battery life is excellent.with 2410 mah battery life and even though u keep the internet line running it will not drain ur battery if ur not using it which mean leave it on sleep mode.thats all thank u =)

  • Guys help me i should buy zenfone2 or oppo r1l

  • Mayve it's your speaker problem..

  • I bought my Oppo R1 last September 2014. It looks fine but after using it I noticed that the storage is partitioned to system and phone so you better check the setting to avoid making the storage full when installing your apps. I used Phone Storage as default settings. In quite a while I was having issues in the sound. When I am using a loud speaker the volume seems to go low but it looks fine when I am using a headphone. There is no update on the ColorOS yet. I am using v1.0.0i or R829_11_140828. I am hoping that the developer would not left this phone out with the new models they are releasing if they want their customers to stick around otherwise this might pause a threat considering other brands. On the other hand it feels sturdy and handy. I accidentally dropped my phone couple of times but it didn't shattered, only few scratches on the edge.

  • Oppo r1 can make video call or not?

  • Hye all. Why my oppo r1 could not make any sound? Even I'm playing the music. Same goes with incoming calling and messaging. There is no sound. But if put the earphone, the music is listened.

  • It can.download from Play store.

  • Cannot download from play store

  • Cannot download from play store

  • hi this is very goode smartphone

  • The camera of this phone was so awesome. It's better than samsung I must say.

  • Have been using the oppo R1 for the past 1 year n it had not failed me yet. Even though it heats up quite quickly, however there is reason to it's heating up. Having too many apps open, charging phone n playing music will indefinitely heat up the phone. As long all apps n closed properly the heating will wear off fast in few sec. Not like any other phones that I have used n I am also quite clumsy, the oppo R1 definitely is a durable phone. Drop it more than 10x n it's still workable with only 1 minor scratch. Surely no lagging problem if u have the right cleaning app to boost up your phone. One set back would be there isn't any external sd card. My 100x thumbs up to this oppo R1. Reasonable price n super durable phone.

  • I have 1.. n now I cant speak to other whos calling me.. their not hearing my voice?? Why??

  • Your set may be from a later-made batch from the ones that have the over-heating issue. And maybe Oppo solved the issue for those sets made later? I'm also interested in this phone but the heating issue bugs me... The Oppo R1 box has the manufacturing date of the phone on the underside.. may I know what date was put there for your set? Also.. I'd like to know from any of you guys who have gotten the R1 also.. do your sets have the over-heating issue? Thanks all in advance... :)

  • How about asus zenfone 6 internet performance ? is it fast ? and its camera ? is it clear and nice ? is asus zenfone 6 have long life battery ? sorry for many questions. reply back please

  • asus zenfone 6 is much more better

  • guys help. Which one should i buy ? Oppo r1 r829t or Asus zenfone 6 ? reply back please

  • No auto focus for video, you need to touch the screen to focus...so lame.

  • oppo r1 only have 16gb right ? do you its enough ? I think its better if they made oppo r1 that have 32 gb :/

  • This is my 3rd Oppo handset after being continually le down by my previous Samsung handsets. I love Oppo. Super phones with excellent features. I don't know what the issue is with people saying that the r1 heats up. I've use it all day on a regular basis, and I never have an issue with heat. People saying otherwise must have really sensitive hands, or are crybabies! The r1 rocks :-)

  • HTC Butterfly S or 2 have the same price but better than it...

  • fantastic camera. really cool

  • Which one should i buys Oppo R1 829 or HTC620G ???

  • Oppo r1Can make video call or not? I try video call but not have any button video call..

  • Excellent camera..

  • Is't there is a chance for New Version?

  • generally the slim mobiles gets heated up faster compared to any other mobile!

  • generally the slim modiles get heated because it is a slip.....u check out any mobile which is slim gets heated vry sooner!!!!!!!!!

  • I am about to buy this C/phone, but with the heat issue I wont be buying it..

  • Hello i wanna ask for ur opinion :) i wanted to buy this oppo r1 because the camera is so nice but as i read the comments just now u guys said that its easily get hot. Is it true? Usually for how long u guys play/use ur phone before it gets hot? 20-30 min non stop or longer than that. Really need ur feedback coz im that type that play with phone for a long time so im afraid if it easily get hot. Reply ya!! Thanks

  • i buy this phone After a month,

  • R1is Better

  • niceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeer,,fast download to

  • NICE

  • I have one but the problem is flip covers are not available. company should provide one so as to protect the OPPO R1 R829 since its expensive. P14,990.00 phil. peso

  • You can actually set the gps off as a default in the settings, you don't need to keep turning it off every now and then.

  • it's sleek design is a given. What's more amazing is its Great features. I like how it can be operational by touch only to preserve the buttons. The front and main cameras hve excellent qualities. The security features like app encryption and guest mode is very useful as I am a very private person. I may have dropped it a few times but no cracks and scratches were made it still works perfectly.

  • This phone is upgrade or not

  • design/battery/speed/camera are good. I have only one problem, gps keeps turning on during calls and 3G data connection using my globe Sim. GPS is initially turned off. I tried using other network (Sun) and it wont open automatically anymore. I guess globe is the culprit. Very annoying bec i keep on turning off my GPS to extend Battery life.

  • good and decent phone if you know how you use it.. if the features are not on this phone, then don't buy it LOL... read and research if you have time....

  • can't make video call. i'm using it already

  • Asus Zenfone also can do that

  • Unable to see the develop after tapping rapidly the build number..cant connect to pc only charging

  • This phone can make video call like samsung?i mean 3G...because end of this month i wanna buy this oppo...and what about battery...when im not using data connection,is it battery still working..or save(battery not too fast low)...

  • Superb smartphone !! 3G in both sim, gorilla glass 3 in rear & front side, superb rear & front camera, high class design, very very user friendly operating with just one hand, very loud & clear speaker, very bright & clear lcd, buit in task killer, ram cleaner! My favourite feature is you can choose what app that will operating in the background, so you can save much much battery life! Try it, you won't regret ! It's make other smartphone like just an ordinary phone ! Bravo Oppo !

  • .. i am using oppo R1 in 2 weeks.. yeah its getting hotter everytime i used it..

  • i buy this phone After a month, my phone was not working because its was to hot

  • yeah i buy this After a month, my phone was not working

  • which phone is better between Oppo R1 & Samsung grand 2? is it oppo can't make 3g video call without install app?

  • C tocomputer it will get options then chose what you want charging or card reader

  • LG Nexus 5. It has 1080p Full HD screen compared to the R1's 720p HD screen, better chipset and CPU,better GPU and you get the latest Android updates early. It's 10g lighter , has NFC, supports USB OTG and there's LTE. But the drawbacks are you can't remove the battery which is pretty annoying unless you're used to it, you can't expand the memory as there is no SD card slot, it uses micro sim so you have to corp it and the battery life is okay for an average daily use which I've tested.

  • I'm confused between this oppo r1 or lg nexus 5 Can someone give me advice which phone should i buy? And why?

  • So far in my experience, this is only brand that can switch 3G to any of the 2 sims, thumbs up OPPO!

  • 1st go to about phone and press more. Then u tap the build number rapidly and u will see u successfully ..... next back to the setting page and press the bottom more and u will see a develop option . U just enable the usb debug then u should get to connect to ur pc :)

  • i think its upgrade to kitkat in this range

  • Nice design slim n elegance phone,good display etc. but....phone heat-up once using GPS (google maps) n hotspot sharing, slow GPS signal login. Using it for 3 weeks now, good user adjustable font size, loud ring tone n earpiece. hopefully next software update will improve heating n GPS problems. Oppo should appreciate user who pays high price for this China phone by constant update of OS!

  • Overall performance is good...

  • Internet connection is fast?

  • Overpriced phone, They think higher price will create better brand value. Should be priced at 15K

  • Super battery, gr8 camera, powerfull android, fantastic design only for smart people.

  • USB Cable can't connected. only can use for charger.

  • sometimes this phone will automatically on the music and torchlight because of the gesture effect. but when we off the gesture effect this phone doesn't have any different from others. overall it's ok

  • 1st day... Evrthing ok..

  • this oppo R1 also can't 3G Video call. need to use software. can't call out and call in for 3G Video call. if u using software like skype, wechat & Tango it's can. bought this with RM1298 but can't video call. my fren bought samsung below RM1000 but can video call. it's make me sad a little bit. but it's find if u are not using the functions at all

  • hi, i'm using this phone starting this month (May). currently it's ok. no lack but i facing phone auto off and auto on (only one time happen), camera great and the sounds is ok. but too expensive. btw it is difficult for me to organize music player. then second there has no memory card because i'm using more memory. the RAM is only 1GB.overal this phone friendly user..

  • I am using oppo r1 this May starting onwards, really I loved operating of this mobile, the camera clarity front and back is pretty good, phone look also superb, color os is great and good option to buy this mobile.

  • so hotttt

  • I have.been using this phone for 2days now. The camera quality is very good .. for those loves to take selfie this phone is the king .. overall the phone is very good no lags so far .. There only 1 problem its easily get hot huhu

  • So far I don't face any problem. It quite smooth any don't hang like other phone.

  • Is the back becoming warm when too much of use?

  • Im using this phone 1 weeks ago....everything should be no problem... the camera (8mp) is better than Iphone...hope this phone no troble for me.

  • good technology but very expensive this spec ,we don`t know also this mobile support to kitkat 4,4 or not

  • hi cliff do you facing heat problem using oppo r1?

  • I using this phone more than 2 months, I feel the phone is great. Color os is special for me. Worth to buy. But the phone is expensive for the spec.

  • hello, so is oppo r1 a good phone to buy? is it worth it?

  • anyone facing heat problem with the phone?

  • phone grills while browsing for even 15 min's....unable to talk after browsing as it becomes too hot to place on ears

  • This is great phone, value for money

  • 5 mpx

  • how about front camera this phone?? have a wide lens? 88" like the r819?

  • Price's too high for those specs

  • Looks like this will be the future design for iPhone 6.

  • looks more like an Xperia Z than iphone 5

  • if i was apple i would try to bring huawei and oppo to the court beacuse of using the design of iphone 5

  • Wow, really iPhone 5S inspired.. lol..

  • Micromax Canvas DOodle 2 is a better Option to go for...

  • There is no external storage

  • Inspired by iPhone 5S and Xperia Z.

  • It would be a great phone if it was priced correctly 250-300$ is considerable.
