Oppo K12 review: A 100 W battery champion with armour-grade drop protection at mid-range money.
Charge fast, drop hard.
K12 leads with the two numbers its buyer cares about — 100 W charging and a military drop rating — wrapped in a curved-glass body that reads more expensive than it is. The single useful camera and dated Wi-Fi are where the budget went; as a rugged daily it serves the brief.
