The OPPO K12x 5G flaunts its military-grade durability sporting a MIL-STD-810H certification to ensure the smartphone can withstand extreme conditions, including high heat, moisture, and shock resistance. It uses double-tempering with twice-reinforced Panda Glass used for better puncture resistance, a high-strength matte finish Alloy frame, Shock-absorbing Foam, and Sponge Bionic cushioning to overcome drops and impacts.
Additionally, the smartphone offers an ultra-slim 7.68 mm slim form factor weighing 186 grams and is available in two color options – Breeze Blue, and Midnight Violet.
