OPPO India has introduced the F27 Pro+ 5G – the country’s first IP66, IP68 and IP69-rated Super-Rugged, Monsoon-Ready smartphone. The F27 Pro+ will be available in two colours—Dusk Pink and Midnight Navy—and retails at INR 27,999 with 128GB storage and INR 29,999 for the 256GB variant. The smartphone boasts OPPO’s full-device protection solution—a damage-proof 360-degree Armour Body—that shields the device from drops and scratches. This is in addition to a four-year durable 5,000mAh battery.
Commenting on the launch, Savio D’Souza, Director of Product Communications at OPPO India, said, “The OPPO F27 Pro+ 5G meets the needs of customers who are always on the move, and demand a durable smartphone that can keep up with them, whether rain or sunshine. It is the only smartphone to carry all three—the IP66, IP68 and IP69—ratings and meets the highest standards against dust and water damage. Additionally, its 360° Armour Body provides inside-out protection, certified by the Swiss SGS Premium Performance standard and MIL-STD-810H Method 516.8. All that and essentials like a vivid, borderless display, stellar cameras, and a very capable processor are packed into a slim, lightweight, and stylish build that is sturdy and flaunt-worthy in equal measure.”
Waterproof and Ultimate Durability
The OPPO F27 Pro+ 5G is the first phone to boast all three ratings of the highest levels of dust ingress and water resistance with IP66, IP68 and IP69; these standards specifically certify that the phone can withstand high-pressure, high-temperature water jets and even water immersion for up to 30 minutes at a time.
The phone’s durability goes beyond dust and water ingress protection owing to its damage-proof 360-degree Armour Body protection, which is made possible by internal dampening materials like sponges to enhance drop resistance, a high-strength, high-thermal conductivity aluminium alloy to protect the motherboard, and Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 on the screen.
The OPPO F27 Pro+ 5G’s focus on endurance is validated by the Swiss SGS Premium Performance 5 Star rating for passing multi-angle drop tests and for its extreme high shock and frequency shock resistance. The smartphone has also passed the MIL-STD-810H Method 516.8 standard that tests for functional shock, transportation shock, fragility, transit drop, and crash hazard shock.
The device has undergone 10 major design enhancements, including a fully waterproof screen and waterproofing on openings like the microphone, speaker, SIM card slot, and USB port to meet the rigorous rating standards. The microphone and earphone speakers are protected by a waterproof breathable film that keeps water at bay while allowing audio permeability. Similarly, the USB port is equipped with a silicone sealing ring to ensure waterproofing.

An Ultra-Slim New Look
The F27 Pro+ 5G pushes the boundaries of design with the first-ever 3D Curved AMOLED display in the F Series. The 120Hz AMOLED display sports super-narrow bezels and a 93% screen-to-body ratio for a near-borderless viewing experience. Its 10-bit panel and 950nits of overall brightness ensure a visually stunning multimedia experience with natural colour reproduction. Furthermore, five layers of eye protection work around the clock for all-around vision protection. OPPO’s Splash Touch technology ensures that the screen remains usable even with water droplets on the display or when using wet hands. The OPPO F27 Pro+ sports a svelte 7.89mm slim profile and weighs a lightweight 177g. Its stain-resistant vegan leather back is yet another design choice that enhances grip and comfort. The phone is available in two stunning colours: Dusk Pink and Midnight Navy. The Dusk Pink variant exudes warmth and is inspired by sunset landscapes, while the Midnight Navy colour reflects the serene waves under the moonlight of the night sky. OPPO’s Cosmos Ring design for its camera module is inspired by luxury mechanical watch dials and adds a touch of elegance and sophistication.
Smooth Performance
The OPPO F27 Pro+ 5G packs an octa-core MediaTek 7050 SoC that comprises ARM Cortex-A78 cores clocked at up to 2.6GHz, and Cortex-A55 efficiency cores to strike the perfect balance between effortless multitasking, efficient power management, and all-day battery life.
The smartphone packs 8GB RAM, and 128GB/256GB of UFS 3.1 storage. Demanding users can expand the RAM by an additional 8GB using OPPO’s proprietary RAM expansion technology. Performance is further enhanced by OPPO’s latest ColorOS 14—based on Android 14—which introduces a new Aqua Dynamics interface with quality-of-life additions like a File Dock feature. The phone has passed OPPO’s 50-month Fluency Protection test which guarantees a smooth and seamless user experience for at least four years.
Keeping the phone going all day long and beyond, is a 5,000mAh battery with 67W SUPERVOOC Flash Charge technology. The OPPO F27 Pro+ 5G can be charged up to 56% in 20 minutes and 100% in 44 minutes. The battery can retain 80% of its original capacity even after four years with a regular daily charge cycle.
Capture Impressive Moments With AI Ultra-Clear Camera System
The OPPO F27 Pro+ 5G brings flagship-grade AI features to the mainstream with a Gen-AI-powered AI Eraser and AI Portrait Retouching. The AI Eraser makes removing unwanted objects and subjects in photographs as simple as touching a button.
The AI-based Portrait Retouching feature removes facial imperfections in portrait shots and can remove blemishes such as spots and acne while reducing noise and improving overall lighting and clarity. Trained on extensive datasets, the AI algorithm backing Portrait Retouching enhances low-light portraits by intelligently reducing noise and clarifying facial features.
The phone is equipped with a 64MP main camera, a 2MP depth camera, and an 8MP selfie camera that allows users to capture stunning landscapes and natural-looking portraits. Features like Flash Snapshot which instantly triggers a short exposure to quickly capture moving objects—supported by AI Shutter Algorithm, and a Night Portrait mode that enhances shooting performance in low-light conditions through a combination of multi-frame noise reduction and HDR technology—further assist with capturing creative photos.
