When it comes to product technology, night shooting is one of the most common challenges in the smartphone industry. The R17 has been enabled with upgrades for both hardware and software, making it a smartphone designed for night shooting. The R17 features a software-level AI Ultra-clear Engine that allows users to take high-quality night photos. The AI Ultra-clear Engine is OPPO's unique image-enhancing technology that is able to break all hardware limitations to maximise the image quality to produce amazing night shots.
