Oppo continues to reinforce its offer in the mid-range segment, taking advantage of its now popular Reno3 series. Although the new Reno4 were already introduced at the beginning of the month, the manufacturer decided to launch yet another model from its previous line.
The Oppo Reno3A presents itself as a mid-range smartphone, with very interesting specifications and a price that will certainly please many users. For now, it was only made official in Japan, where it will arrive with a price of around € 330. A possible global launch has not yet been confirmed, but it is possible that Oppo will launch it under a different brand name.
The Oppo Reno3A features a 6.44-inch full-HD+ (1,080×2,400 pixels) AMOLED display with Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection and 89.9 percent screen to body ratio. The device comes powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 665 SoC, coupled with 6GB of RAM. For storage, the Oppo Reno 3A comes with 128GB onboard that is expandable via microSD card (up to 256GB).
In terms of camera optics, the phone comes with a quad rear camera setup that houses a 48-megapixel primary shooter with an f/1.7 lens, an 8-megapixel secondary shooter with an f/2.2 lens, and two 2-megapixel camera sensors with f/2.4 lenses. On the front, there is a 16-megapixel sensor with an f/2.0 lens for selfies and video calls. This camera is placed inside the notch on the display.
The connectivity options on the phone include dual-band Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, 4G LTE, Bluetooth v5.0, NFC, GPS, and a USB Type-C port for charging.
Speaking of charging, the Oppo Reno 3A comes with 4,025mAh battery with Quick Charge support. Sensors on board include a proximity sensor, ambient light sensor, accelerometer, gyro sensor, and magnetic sensor. In terms of dimensions, the Oppo Reno 3A measures 160.9×74.1×8.2mm and weighs 175 grams.
