"Inspiration Ahead" at the OPPO Booth

Taking its cues from the football fans and their role in inspiring their teams to victory each game as the irreplaceable '12th man' on the pitch, OPPO also brought an immersive exhibition to the Atatürk Olympic Stadium, where fans could experience the excitement and anticipation of being called up for the big game from the team bench.

The experiential exhibition also gave fans an exclusive opportunity to take photos with the legendary Kaká, using OPPO's latest foldable flagship Find N2 Flip and the exceptional camera capabilities of OPPO Find X6 Pro. Adding to the excitement, fans were presented with the jerseys and scarves of the two 2023 UEFA Champions League finalists, Manchester City and Inter Milan, recording the exciting moments with OPPO smartphones.
