Oppo A2 Pro Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos

Oppo A2 Pro is a bestseller without cameras

The Chinese company Oppo is becoming more and more famous among fans of mobile electronics, because over the past few years the manufacturer has pleased us with dozens of beautiful and technologically advanced smartphones, the competitiveness of which could not be doubted. However, sometimes the developer overlooks some things, which is why a potential hit turns into just a good device. A similar oversight occurred with the hero of today’s review.

It is unlikely that there will be people who will not like the design of the new product. Thanks to the branded round camera block, leather-styled rear panel and thin screen frames, the gadget can easily be confused with the brand’s flagships. The 6.7-inch AMOLED display is also not disappointing. If the resolution of 2412x1080 pixels does not amaze the imagination, then other parameters such as a 120-Hz picture refresh rate (increased smoothness of content), a brightness reserve of 1500 nits (image visibility in direct sunlight) and a high-quality oleophobic coating evoke only positive emotions.

Decent selection of technical characteristics. The MediaTek Dimensity 7050 CPU originates from the 900th chip, but this does not reduce its relevance. Together with 8GB/12GB of RAM and the Mali G68-MC4 video adapter, the processor scores more than 500 thousand AnTuTu benchmark points, which means smooth operation of the operating system interface, close to instant launch of applications and good gaming capabilities. Even resource-intensive projects will be available to gamers. So, you can play the amazingly huge open world of Genshin Impact with average graphic presets. 256/512GB of permanent memory are allocated, so you won’t have to worry about the lack of a slot for MicroSD cards.

The main 64- and 2-megapixel photo modules are the weakest point of the device, because they do not have optical stabilization, and the combination does not even have a wide-angle sensor. As a result, only daytime pictures will cause delight, not devoid of detail and correct color reproduction. There are also savings on sound. There are no stereo speakers, volume is lacking, as is bass. Let's move on to the positives again. There is NFC contactless payment, Android 13, and a more durable case design compared to classmates. The autonomy provided by the 5000mAh battery with fast charging at 68W is also impressive. There is no need to remember about sockets for up to two days. However, the totality of the phone's advantages does not make up for its mediocre photo capabilities.
