As scheduled, Oppo has launched the Oppo A3 smartphone in its domestic market of China. This launch comes after the brand debuted the Oppo A3 Pro back in April.
The Oppo A3 is available in three color options: Tranquillity Black, Aurora Purple, and Mountain Stream Green. The Mountain Stream Green variant features a wavy pattern on the back, reminiscent of grass swaying in the wind.

The phone features a 6.67-inch Full HD+ AMOLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate and a touch sampling rate of up to 240Hz. It has a peak brightness of 1200 nits and is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 7i.
Powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 5G SoC and Adreno 619 GPU, the Oppo A3 offers smooth performance. It comes in two RAM options, 8GB and 12GB, with storage options of 256GB and 512GB. Storage can be expanded up to 1TB with a microSD card.

It supports 5G, dual 4G VoLTE, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.1, and multiple navigation systems. The Oppo A3 has a 5000mAh battery with 45W SUPERVOOC fast charging.
