All glass Oppo A31 with LTE launched for $160

Oppo Mobile has quietly introduced a new dual-SIM phone - Oppo A31 for China. The new A31 features glass panel at the rear to join the competitive mid-range segment at $160. Bearing the dual-glass design, a metallic frame is what binds the glass panels together in an 8mm thin profile.

Oppo has used a 4.5-inch display with 480x854 pixel resolution which might be a little setback. The phone is powered with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 chipset tha features quad-core Cortex-A53 CPU coupled with 1GB RAM, 8GB built-in storage, and micro SD slot to hold up to 128GB card. By default, it will run ColorOS based on Android 4.4 KitKat.

At the rear is a 8MP camera sensor with f/2.2 aperture for covering wider area and LED flash to support it. In the front is a 5MP camera for clicking selfies and video calls. The A31 supports 4G LTE network SIMs in both SIM slots and packs a 2,000 mAh battery.

For now, the phone will be made available in China and then hopefully in other markets such as India and select European countries.
