Flash charging, Under £250, 4G, premium looks, robust battery, DualSIM option, expandable memory, same camera tech as on some Galaxy S6
Still running Android 4.4, Only works on 4G with EE and 3, 16GB internal storage only

Runs smoothly, SIM card slot doubles up as card reader, lots of handy gesture controls
Runs on outdated Android, battery life could be better
The R7 may be slim but it's packed with handy features. The gesture controls, for instance, made it easy to access the camera and start playing music.It's also an attractive phone with a nice metallic design, gorgeous screen and decent cameras.Whether you...
At 2499 CNY (RM1460), the Oppo R7 makes a pretty compelling case for itself. However, it only comes in a choice-restricting 16GB. You can right the wrong via its expandable memory of up to 128GB, but we'd have prefer it come naturally in the first place...
