Turning over to the back is the fingerprint sensor at the usual spot and dual rear camera placed by side by side at the top left corner. The back of the device looks like glass but it isn’t.

Oppo Realme U1 Camera Review

This is perhaps the highlight of the device as it a selfie-focused smartphone. The front-facing camera features a single 25MP camera with f/2.0 aperture which is capable of recording 1080p videos at 30fps. At the back are two cameras – a 13MP main shooter with f/2.2 and a secondary 2MP with f/2.4 paired with an LED Flash. However, the rear cameras are kind of a let down as they can’t record 4k videos. 1080p video recording is possible but the frame per second can only go as high as a front-facing camera – 30fps max.
