The OPPO A17 features a flat body with curved corners. The rear has a leather-like finish which is its design selling point. It has two circular camera islands at the back housing the dual-camera setup. It also has a 6.56-inch LCD screen with 1600 x 720 HD+ resolution, a 60Hz refresh rate, and a waterdrop notch housing the 5MP selfie camera.

Inside, it has the 2.3GHz Helio G35 octa-core processor, PowerVR GE8320 GPU, 4GB RAM, 64GB storage, and a 5,000mAh battery. Disappointingly, it still sports a microUSB port for charging and there is no mention of any fast charging tech included.

For cameras, it has a 50MP main camera + 2MP depth sensor with LED flash.

It will also have Android 12 out of the box with ColorOS 12.1 on top. It has a side-mounted fingerprint scanner, WiFi, 4G LTE, and Bluetooth 5.0.
