Description of the Oppo A5 (2020) 3GB 64GB:

The Oppo A5 (2020) 3GB 64GB was launched in September 2019. The smartphone comes with a 6,5 inch screen with a resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels.

Processor

This Oppo is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 665 64-bit chip with a 2,0 Ghz Quad-Core + 1,8 Ghz Quad-Core core distribution. One of the main advantages of an octa-core phone is that it can provide better performance than a chip with fewer cores. With eight processor cores, an octa-core chip can handle several tasks at the same time. This enables smooth multi-tasking, such as switching between multiple apps, streaming videos, and performing intensive tasks without lag. Moreover, modern octa-core chips are often designed with energy efficiency in mind. They can dynamically switch between high performance and power efficient cores depending on the task required to optimize the phone's battery life.

As apps and operating systems become increasingly demanding, an octa-core chip offers a good degree of future-proof because it is able to cope with the growing demand for computing power.

This combination therefore gives a maximum power of an octa-core processor with 3072 MB RAM. With a thickness of 9.1 millimeters, the device is not too thick. This phone weighs 195 grams.

Camera

The A5 (2020) 3GB 64GB has a 12,2 megapixel camera, it means that the camera is capable of capturing detailed images without the added cost and complexity of a higher megapixel count. This can be useful if you want to take high-resolution photos that you can zoom in on or crop without losing too much detail, but you don't need the very highest level of image quality. In general, having this amount of megapixels can provide a good balance of image quality and affordability. You can also use the selfie camera in the drop-shaped notch of 8 megapixel for video calling, for example.
