Design is an integral part of Oppo smartphones. Oppo is known to make mid-segment attractive looking phones. The F17 Pro, a slim lightweight device with AMOLED display, has been launched in India at Rs 22,990. Closer to the Diwali season Oppo has introduced the F17 Pro Diwali Edition. This new edition comes with a new Oppo F17 Pro-Matte Gold model and the box also includes an Oppo 10,000 mAh power bank (18W) and a Diwali exclusive back case cover. Keeping in mind the spirit of the festival the F17 Pro Diwali Edition is bright and jazzy. The colour blend makes it stand out for sure.
The Diwali Edition is similar on specs like the original model. The new model is slightly more expensive due to the addition of the bundled power bank and case cover. Oppo F17 Pro Diwali Edition is priced in India at Rs 23,990.
Just like the original model the smartphone touts a sleek and lightweight profile, AMOLED display, 48MP quad-camera setup and dual front cameras.

VERDICT
The F17 Pro Diwali Edition is not any different from the original model. It is conceptualised keeping the festive season in mind, so the new colour scheme is the real selling point of this device. The power bank is an add on as well. Being the Diwali Edition, it can be a good pick for gifting. Just like the original model the built quality is on point, it has a smooth and responsive software and supports fast charging. Performance-wise you might get a little disappointed. This edition wins for me if you want to gift this to someone.
