If Oppo expecting the F17 pro around this price tag then it must a 5G supported phone. The OnePlus Nord was launched with Snapdragon 765G SoC, the predecessor of the F17 Pro having MediaTek Helio P70.
Hence, the upcoming F17 Pro should opt for Snapdragon 960 or MediaTek Dimensity 800U. Since the phone comes under the ultra-sleek category it may feature 25-30W fast charging mechanism. 65W could produce a lot of heats then a better thermal solution is needed. In the ultra-sleek category, you cannot fit such thermal solutions. Thus, the maximum of 4300mAh battery alongside 30W fast charging is expected.
