The OPPO A3 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 6s Gen 1 chip, which lets it perform quite well.

The device comes with IP54 protection against dust and water.

The OPPO A3 has a 50MP primary camera paired with a depth sensor. It is fitted with a front 5MP camera to satisfy selfie enthusiasts. With such features, it does well in capturing high-quality photos and videos for any situation. The A3 meets the needs of everyone, from casual photographers up to content creators.

OPPO A3

A3 comes with a huge 5,100mAh battery that would last an extended period running it. It was supported by 45W fast charging, hence quick in recharging your phone. Such a scale of a battery would ensure that the phone will sustain long use without frequent charges.
