Oppo A55

Oppo A55 Specs and price in Kenya

Cameras

Oppo A55 has got triple rear shooters utilizing a 50-megapixel main camera, 2-megapixel macro, and a 2-megapixel one for depth sensing. Flipping over to its front. And we have a 16-megapixel selfie shooter. Checking out the quality, oftentimes photo looks decent with enough details and sharpness. Colors are often accurate and the dynamic range is decent. There’s also a macro camera, but as expected, it produces low-quality images. On the other hand, selfies can be very good which is what Oppo is well known for. Just make sure to have good lighting. When it comes to videos, this phone can take up to 1080 P of 30 frames per second just like most smartphones at this price point.

Display

Now more on the display, the Oppo A55 has a 6.51-inch IPS LCD panel with a resolution of 1600 by 720 capable of having 270 PPI. Even though it only has an LCD panel, surprisingly, it produces a bunch of colors and has decent viewing angles. This device gives an immersive viewing experience when watching content on YouTube o Netflix. The display as it is bright and vibrant. In the display settings, you can choose the screen temperature to cool, default, and warm. You can also opt to choose what dark mode style you prefer. Overall, this display is decent and will suffice your daily needs.

Platform

Powering the Oppo A55 is a MediaTek MT6765G Helio G35 (12 nm) chipset that is paired with a PowerVR GE8320 GPU, 4GB RAM, and 64 GB of internal storage. It can handle basic tasks and it is good for day-to-day tasks. Well, this isn’t a gaming smartphone, so don’t expect too much really. But you know, overall the MediaTek MT6765G Helio G35 performs smoothly for basic activities, such as video streaming, social media browsing, and anything of that like.

And when it comes to audio, this device only comes with a single downward-firing speaker with a quality that usually comes with its price range. It’s good for voice calls and listening to podcasts, but you’ll be better off with headphones for a listening experience. Good thing. There’s a 3.5-millimeter audio port. So you don’t need to worry about getting a wireless pair of earbuds if at all that is a turnoff.

Battery and more

Oppo A55 comes with the usual connectivity features such as dual SIM, 4G LTE, Wifi, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS, USB type C, and the 3.5-millimeter audio jack. Powering it is a 5,000 mAh battery with support for 18W fast charging. This is an ample amount to last you a full day of usage. As for biometrics and security, you can choose between facial recognition or the side-mounted fingerprint scanner. Both work as intended, but we highly recommend you use the fingerprint scanner for a higher level of security. Running on the Oppo A55 is Android 11, ColorOS 11.1.
