Keeping the lights on is a 5100mAh battery with support for 45W fast wired charging. Oppo claims the battery can go from 0 to 50 per cent in 30 minutes when charged using the bundled charger. It has a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, a USB-C port, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. The standard connectivity options include Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS.
