Oppo has its hands full with a series of launches in India. After introducing the innovative Find X for the premium segment and the dazzling F9 Pro in the mid-range segment, Oppo is bringing yet another smartphone to cover the affordable price segment. Oppo A5 went official in India on Friday and here's everything that comes with it.
Oppo recently upgraded its A-series with dual camera setup in the affordable A3s smartphone, and the all-new A5 smartphone ups the ante by introducing some noted upgrades. Priced at Rs 14,990, Oppo A5 brings dual camera technology, AI Beautification, full-screen display with notch and more. The smartphone will be available in stores (both online and offline) starting August 25.
Oppo A5 features a shiny polycarbonate back cover with a diamond-cut finish to give a premium look. The dual cameras appear on the top left and the fingerprint scanner sits at the center of the back cover just above the Oppo branding.
The biggest highlight of the A5 smartphone, its camera, is equipped with 13MP+2MP sensors with LED flash. On the front is an 8MP snapper with AI Beauty Technology, which the company says ensures sharp and natural selfies. The front camera also enables face unlock using facial recognition.
Besides the camera, the full-screen notched display grabs the attention. Oppo A5 features a 6.2-inch Super Fullscreen, which essentially means the space around the notch will display important notifications such as battery, date and other app notifications. This is a feature, according to Oppo, exclusive to flagship phones, but Oppo A5 brings it to the masses.
Finally, Oppo A5 packs decent power under the hood. It is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 450 processor paired with 4GB RAM and 32GB onboard storage. There's a reliable 4,230mAh battery to power the phone, which can easily last a full day.
Buyers can choose from two bright colours, Blue and Red, which is clearly aimed at the youth. The smartphone also comes with unique features such as Smart Lock, Smart Driving, Full-Screen multitasking and Music Party.
"With A5, we wish to bring a smartphone that comes with features that meet the current demands of the young generation. Along with advanced features like dual camera, super full screen and extensive battery, the OPPO A5 has been designed to enable consumers to capture every moment perfectly," Will Yang, Brand Director, OPPO India, said in a statement.
