To recap
If you’re looking for an affordable phone there are plenty of good options, this Oppo A5 included among them. Its battery life is exceptional, with near two-day life, its screen is large, and its processor ample for tasks and games. However, the screen could be higher-res and less prone to smears, while the ‘quad camera’ system is a total oversell.
