Oppo A12 Overview

 

Display: Oppo A12 packs a 6.22 inch display which is slightly smaller than other competitors and makes it easier to handle the smartphone. The quality of display is above average as you can clearly see all the colors in a particular video or picture. The absence of standard refresh rate can be felt at times but still the smartphone manages to deliver a smooth experience without that. 

 

Performance: Talking about the performance, Oppo A12 is based on the latest Android 10 operating system and runs on the MediaTek Helio P35 processor that provides enough speed to perform all the operations like playing heavy games or multitasking but not on an extensive level. The smartphone offers you two different RAM variants including the 3GB RAM variant suitable for beginners and the 4GB RAM variant that is for the users who are more into gaming and want lag free performance in the long run. 

 

Camera: Oppo A12 sports a dual rear camera set up comprising 13MP primary sensor, 2MP secondary sensor and an LED flash. The rear camera set up of the smartphone is not that powerful but you can get above average photographs in favorable lighting conditions. ON top of that, the smartphone also has a basic level front camera for selfies. 

 

Battery: Oppo 12 comes equipped with a 4320 mAh battery that provides you back up for at least a day when fully charged. The smartphone gets completely charged in  hours and minutes which is a satisfying speed considering that the smartphone doesn't have fast charge support. The battery drops at a speed of 14% to 16% per hour in case of gaming and at a speed of 8% to 10% per hour when you stream your favorite movies or shows. 

 

Competitors:  Oppo A12 has Realme Narzo 10A as one of the strongest competitors. Narzo 10A not only offers a better processor in almost similar price range, but it also offers a better rear camera set up, larger display and a higher refresh rate and easily outclasses Oppo 12 in most of the specifications.

• Compact and stylish design

PriceDekho Expert Verdict

 

Oppo A12 is a good smartphone under the budget of Rs 9,000 but not  the best one. due to its old school features, Oppo A13 gets thrown out of the race by its competitors. The smartphone could have proved a better competition if it included a high refresh rate and a massive battery along with a triple rear camera set up.
