Oppo's latest midranger has gone official and it is,
after all, the Oppo A5, and not A3s. The TENAA listing gave us most of the
details a few days ago, but now it's set in stone. The Oppo A5 comes with a 6.2-inch
LCD with a 1,520x720px resolution in a 19:9 aspect ratio. It goes without
saying that there's a notch up top.
The chipset in charge is the Snapdragon 450 with its
octa-core CPU clocked at 1.8GHz. The official website says 4GB of RAM, but the
regulator listing mentioned a 3GB version too - perhaps later on. Internal
storage is 64GB with a microSD slot offering the possibility for expansion. There's a dual camera on the back
with a 13MP f/2.2 primary shooter and an additional 2MP f/2.4 module for depth
detection - portrait mode confirmed. Over on the front, an 8MP cam takes
selfies.
The handset measures 156.2x75.6x8.2mm and weighs in
at 168g. Mind you, that's with a large 4,230mAh battery inside. Couple that
with the efficient 14nm chip, and the A5 promises excellent battery life.
The Oppo A5 is listed for pre-order with sales
starting on July 13. Price is set at CNY 1500 or some US$ 225.
