On the imaging side, the Oppo R9 has a 13MP rear-facing camera. But the star of this department is the 4MP front-facing shooter, which is capable of snapping 16MP photos with the use of a high-end technology.

With regards to the Oppo R9 Plus, users can expect a 6-inch AMOLED display that's rumored to generate an impressive Quad HD resolution. It also has the same RAM and memory configuration as that of the Oppo R9.

Apart from its massive screen, Oppo R9 Plus is also big on the camera technology. The camera on the back will be a 16MP shooter paired with a 4MP selfie snapper presumably with the same technology used on its little brother. It looks like the Oppo R9 Plus is also sporting a huge 4,120 mAh battery.
