New Delhi: OPPO has officially revealed key details about its upcoming F33 series ahead of its April 15 launch in India. The company is making the new lineup one of the toughest mid-range smartphones, and they are placing a lot of emphasis on rugged build and extended battery life. It is expected that the series will have two models, the regular F33 and the F33 Pro.
As per the official teasers of OPPO, the F33 series will have the highest level of protection standards that are usually found in high-end rugged products. The smartphones are built with a high degree of real-world durability, targeted at users who may often be working in harsh conditions like construction sites and outdoor travelling as well as in industries.

- Able to resist high-pressure and high-temperature water jets.
- More protection than regular IP68 phones.
- It is built to withstand a harsh environment, such as industrial cleaning or harsh weather.
This aligns the series with the likes of the OnePlus 15 and other recent offerings that focus on the rugged.

- Charges SuperVOOC 80W fast.
- Retains up to 80% battery health after 1,830 charge cycles
- Expected life of up to 5 years with daily usage.

OPPO F33 Series performance and price

In comparison, the newly released Realme 16 5G features a Dimensity 6400 Turbo processor and has a price of Rs 31,999, which means that the new series by OPPO may be positioned in the sub Rs 35,000 range.
