We expect the same global variant of the phone to come to India.
The key highlights of the Oppo R17 Pro are that the phone comes with a waterdrop-style notched display and an in-display fingerprint sensor. The smartphone much like some of the recently launched Oppo phones come with Super VOOC charging support. In other markets, the Oppo R17 Pro comes in 8GB of RAM model, and the same is expected to happen in India as well.

Oppo R17 Pro: Expected Pricing and Availability
Oppo R17 Pro is coming to India on December 4. In China, the phone is launched with a price tag of CNY 4,299, which is roughly around Rs 44,100. Oppo is yet to reveal the India price of the phone, but we expect the phone to cost under Rs 40,000 in India and with that take on the likes of OnePlus 6T.
