Oppo A18 Overview
The Oppo A18 is a 2023 budget offering from the company and is the successor to the Oppo A17. This smartphone is available in 4 GB + 128 GB memory and storage configuration.
Display and Design
The Oppo A18 has a pretty generic design with a plastic build. The phone is available in two colour options: Glowing Black and Glowing Blue. It comes with a side-mounted fingerprint sensor for security. Furthermore, it boasts an IP54 water and dust resistance while weighing about 188 grams.
On the front, it boasts a 6.56-inch HD+ LCD panel that operates at a smooth 90Hz refresh and touch sampling rate. The Oppo A18 has a somewhat noticeable amount of bezels. The display has a resolution of 1,612 x 720 pixels and a peak brightness of 720 nits. Furthermore, it has a centrally aligned waterdrop camera cutout.
Performance
In terms of performance, the Oppo A18 gets the MediaTek Helio G85 chipset. It is an octa-core processor built on a 12nm process, with a maximum frequency of 2.0 GHz. It is paired with 4GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage, offering ample space for apps, files, and media.
The phone also includes an additional 4GB of virtual RAM support to enhance multitasking capabilities. Furthermore, it also offers an option to expand your storage to 1 TB via a MicroSD card. Finally, on the software front, it comes with ColorOS 13.1 on top of Android 13.
Camera and the rest
The camera setup of the Oppo A18 includes a dual-camera system on the rear, featuring an 8MP primary camera and a 2MP lens for creating bokeh effects. On the front, there is a 5MP camera for selfies and video calls.
A respectable 5,000mAh battery powers the smartphone. However, the company has opted to remain silent about the charging — suggesting a relatively low capability. The Oppo A38 has dual SIM support and offers 4G LTE, WiFi 5, and Bluetooth v5.3 wireless connectivity. Additionally, it also features NFC support in limited countries. In terms of wired connections, it comes with a USB Type-C port and a 3.5mm earphone.
