Coming Soon: A New Layer of Privacy

A new front line for privacy to keep your everyday moments truly yours

Our phones are our most personal space, but we use them in the least private places. On the bus, in the elevator, and wherever we’re waiting in line, our digital laundry gets aired in plain view. And as phones become more tailored to our routines and preferences, concerns about privacy are only growing. 

That’s why Samsung will soon unveil a new layer of privacy to shield your phone from shoulder surfing wherever you go. You’ll have the space to check your messages or enter a password on public transit without thinking twice about who might be watching.

Tough Times Call for the OPPO A6 Pro's Tough Tech

When urgent demands collide with unforeseen circumstances, you need a phone built to keep up with everything—from weather changes, accidental bumps, and battery anxiety. The OPPO A6 Pro has you covered, designed to handle spills and drops, and comes with a high battery capacity to keep your hustle moving even in tough times.

Take on the elements, shrug off hard knocks

The OPPO A6 Pro boasts an IP69-rated sealing that locks out dust and stands up to high-pressure, high-temperature water jets, so ports and seams stay intact even after accidental liquid spills or sudden downpours. 

Adding to this is its military-grade shock resistance, built with a reinforced frame, toughened glass, and targeted impact cushions around key components of the device to disperse impact from edge and corner drops. Its structure is stressed across multiple angles and surfaces to curb deformation and micro-fractures, keeping the display, radios, and haptics operating within spec long after each bump.
