The Oppo F1 also includes an Adreno 405 clocked at 550 MHz. This GPU is more suited to 1080p displays than 720p displays, which makes it a really good choice for the lower-resolution display of the F1. As for connectivity, there’s single-band Wi-Fi b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, and A-GPS, but no NFC. You also get Category 4 LTE in most models, although there is a 3G-only model, and bands vary by region. The Oppo F1 features 16 GB of expandable storage, alongside 3 GB of RAM. In general use, the Oppo F1 is noticeably faster than a device like the Moto G 2015, which uses a Snapdragon 410 SoC with just four CPU cores. Multi-tasking in particular felt improved thanks to 3 GB of RAM, with quicker loading of previously used apps, and web browsing felt marginally faster. It’s still several steps behind the latest flagship devices with Snapdragon 820 SoCs, but the Snapdragon 616 is more than capable for everyday usage.

In the benchmarks above, the Oppo F1 was, on average, 8% faster in CPU-limited workloads than the Moto G 2015.
