Reviews for the Oppo A79 5G
Source: Mash IT
Mi ha convito questo Oppo A79 5G? No, non a questo prezzo e con l’attuale concorrenza. Sottolineo che quando dico “prezzo“, non mi riferisco a quello di listino, perché è chiaro che a 299,99€ sia fuori mercato, ma parlo proprio dell’attuale street price di circa 240€ per il taglio 8+256GB su Amazon. Oppo A79 5G non spicca ed appare come l’ennesimo anonimo medio gamma. I pochi aspetti positivi, quali un ampio display, una buona autonomia o un design gradevole, non sono sue esclusive ma caratteristiche ormai comuni negli smartphone di fascia medio bassa. Il consiglio che posso dare ad Oppo è quello di centrare meglio i suoi prodotti a livello di prezzo e offrire smartphone più bilanciati, che non puntino tutto sul design.

Not every phone has to be a flagship, and not everyone needs an advanced “bells and whistles” device. Some people prefer a simple model that works quickly and allows them to take decent photos from time to time. Models like the OPPO A79 are created for such individuals. HOWEVER! Models like the A79 should cost around $180-200! But for $410, there are competitors offering AMOLED screens, faster processors, better camera setups, higher quality photos, and better sound (for example, the POCO X5 5G, POCO M6 Pro, Moto G54 5G, Moto G72, Motorola Edge 30 Neo, Redmi Note 13, Redmi Note 12S, Honor Magic5 Lite, realme C67, realme 10 and the list goes on). Not to mention the charger and case included in the package, which OPPO lacks. The hero of the review may stand out only in terms of design, but are there really few slim smartphones with interestingly designed back panels nowadays?

With that big, bright and easy to read screen as its major selling point, the Oppo A79 5G is best-suited to older people who are perhaps frustrated with their ability to easily read other smartphones. That’s assuming they’re not fussed about the phone’s shortcomings in terms of grunt and photography. If you’re looking for a decent all-rounder with more power, it’s perhaps best to look elsewhere.

If you like what the OPPO A79 5G has to offer definitely keep your eye on specials. If the price drops and these features are what you want, jump on it. On the other side of things stay away from overpaying for this phone. We’re a bit surprised to see it priced at R9 999 on Takealot, albeit through a third party seller, which makes the value even worse.

The OPPO A79 5G comes with a capable camera setup and supports 33W fast charging, which comes in handy to fuel it back up pretty fast. The phone also comes with a capable primary camera setup that will let you click some brilliant pictures, but keep in mind that low-light conditions could prove to be challenging for it. Worth considering overall, especially if you can get hold of it for a slightly lower price.

And so, that’s it. That’s all you need to know about the OPPO A79 5G. For the price of RM1,199, I do think that it is a bit pricey for what it offers and that camera is just… rough. If you’re okay with MIUI then maybe consider getting the Redmi Note 12 Pro 5G. I’m not sure if we did a review of that phone since their naming scheme is just way too confusing and it’s impossible to keep track. If I did do a review of that phone then it’ll be at the top right corner or at the end screen – remember to subscribe on your way out and we’ll see you guys in the next video.

6.72":
It is a small display format for smartphones. You shouldn't be severely defective in vision, and you won't see much detail on the screen and only have a small resolution available. For that, the device should be small and handy, easy to transport.
» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.68.5%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
