The OPPO A3 (PADM00) is equipped with a 6.2-inch screen, 4GB of RAM, and 128GB of internal flash memory, as well as a microSD card slot allowing for up to 256GB of additional storage space, as per the newly leaked listing. Both the user manual and product renders seen in the gallery below confirm the OPPO A3 will feature a display notch housing its 8-megapixel camera, earpiece, and ambient light sensor, with the smartphone also featuring a single-lens rear sensor listed as being of the 16-megapixel variety. A 3.5mm headphone jack is part of the package, as is Android 8.1 Oreo with support for Google’s Project Treble. The OPPO A3 boasts the mid-range MediaTek Helio P60 chip, while its screen has a resolution of 2,280 by 1,080 pixels which is highly unusual but also a result of its display notch. Discounting the cutout, the handset will sport a regular 18:9 (2:1) display panel.
The Chinese original equipment manufacturer is expected to announce the A3 by the end of the next month and will most likely be targeting it at its home country and possibly India. The smartphone has been listed with a 3,300mAh non-removable battery, beauty mode support, and 4G LTE compatibility. The entire package is 56 × 75.3 × 7.8mm in size, weights 159g, and will be available in Knight Black, Soybean Meal, Blue, Stardust Silver, and Pomegranate, according to the same source.
