Although the Chinese manufacturer  Oppo  has been very busy in 2020 producing mid-range terminals equipped with 5G connectivity, such as the  Oppo Reno4 SE 5G , the company has not forgotten about the other market segments, and as proof of We have the  Oppo  A53s , which is already available in Spain for a competitive price in the range of cheap mobile phones . 

This is an entry level Smartphone with very competent specifications, including a 6.5-inch perforated screen with a 90Hz refresh rate , a 5,000mAh battery with 18-watt fast charge , a 13MP + 2MP + 2MP triple camera and also an affordable price that ranges from 200 euros.

As you would expect from a terminal from this company, the  Oppo  A53s is quite aesthetically neat, sporting a back cover with a 3D iridescent wave design texture , which reflects light from the binoculars. This cover in turn houses a rectangular photographic module for 3 sensors and an LED flash, as well as a fingerprint reader in the center for safe and convenient unlocking. 

For a juicy 5,000mAh battery, the  Oppo  A53s is as light and thin as it gets; its thickness stays at 8.4mm and it only weighs 186 grams, which is fine by modern standards. 

We cannot ignore the presence of a pair of stereo speakers on the bottom edge of the device, which provides 3D sound with Dirac audio optimization. 

Finally, the color presentations for this mobile are: black, blue and white . 

Screen 

The  Oppo  A53s exhibits a 6.5-inch IPS LCD screen with a 20: 9 aspect ratio , slim bezels, a hole in the upper left corner for the selfie camera, and Corning Gorilla Glass 3 lamination. It is important to note that the panel sacrifices resolution and density. of pixels in favor of achieving a higher than average refresh rate. 

Returning to the previous idea, the screen is left with an HD + resolution of 1,600 x 720 pixels , while the refresh rate is 90Hz ; A curious choice considering that in this price range it is very easy to get terminals with a FullHD + screen  , but not always with a refresh rate higher than 60Hz. 

While we can expect more fluidity from the panel when navigating the interface, this comes at the cost of lower definition and mediocre pixel density (269ppi). 

Hardware and Features 

The Oppo  A53s engine  is a humble Qualcomm Snapdragon 460 chip ; It employs an octa-core processor with a clock frequency of up to 1.8Ghz and is paired with an Adreno  610 GPU  . 

It also has 4GB of RAM installed along with 64GB of internal storage, although it is worth noting that there is a version with 128GB of storage , which obviously costs a little more. Regardless of the variant chosen, a Micro-SD card of up to 256GB can be added. 

Moving on to the scope of autonomy, we must praise the 5,000mAh battery that powers this terminal, especially for the fact that it supports fast charging of 18 watts. 

While the Oppo  A53s chip  is quite competent and you won’t sweat a drop when running your day-to-day applications and tasks (including casual Android games), we can’t help but feel that this is a   very basic SoC for the price that has this terminal. After all, it is not a bad chip, but it does not stand out in this segment of the market either. 

On the other hand, what does impress is Oppo’s RAM + Anti LAG technology   capable of maintaining peak performance and reducing the startup time of an application. 

In the software department we can have Android 10 for the operating system, but being an Oppo mobile  , the interface is provided by  ColorOS  7.2. 

Cameras 

The photographic department is headed by a triple rear camera , which is composed of a 13MP primary sensor with f / 2.2 aperture. This is followed by a 2MP macro camera capable of getting quite detailed 4cm close-ups. Third, there is a 2MP depth sensor for bokeh and portrait-type photos. 

It should be noted that the camera can shoot video in 1080 @ 30fps and that it also includes a wide selection of 15 photographic filters to provide customization options to the user. 

Finally, the selfie camera   is a commendable 16MP (f / 2.0 and 5P) and supports advanced functions such as HDR, beauty mode, bokeh effect and facial recognition.
