The OPPO A78 5G is the company’s newest budget- to mid-range smartphone.
The OPPO A78 5G was released on January 7 in Malaysia. It features a 6.56-inch LCD with an HD+ resolution (1612 x 720) and 90 Hz refresh rate, the MediaTek Dimensity 700, and a 50 MP dual camera.
The OPPO A78 5G features a distinctive rear camera design, with two 50-megapixel cameras placed on a circular, glossy surface (as seen below). The device’s front, however, features a more conventional teardrop-shaped notch.
The A78 5G will feature 5G connectivity, dual-stereo speakers, 8GB of RAM (expandable to 16GB), 128GB of storage, and a 5,000 mAh battery with 33W wired charging support.
Surprisingly, the A78 5G also supports microSD and has an IP54 rating for water and dust resistance.
