Oppo has launched the K13x 5G in India. The K13x starts at Rs 11,999 and brings a bunch of specs and features, all geared at making the phone last longer. Oppo says the K13x has 'damage-proof' body and a large 6,000mAh battery built to offer at least 5 years of 'dependable' use with minimal degradation. It isn't immediately clear if Oppo is using a battery based on the latest Silicon-Carbon technology. We will update this copy once we get more information. advertisementThe Oppo K13x 5G comes in a choice of Midnight Violet and Sunset Peach, both with a different back panel design. Both have a frosted finish on top of what appears to be a full plastic chassis with the peach variant rocking a wavy pattern. This chassis, Oppo claims, is damage-proof, with 160-percent higher impact resistance over the previous generation. The 360-degree armour body makes it more durable and resistance to drops, Oppo adds further. The overall resistance extends to the phone's ingress protection.
