An Alluring Commitment of 5G
The key highlight of OPPO A53s 5G is the promise of 5G. With 5G just around the corner, what OPPO has been able to successfully achieve is to bring a capable 5G device to the masses at an affordable price point.
The centre piece of OPPO’s 5G offering is the MediaTek Dimensity 700 SoC featuring a Mali-G57 GPU. It manages lower energy consumption with best in class performance. The chipset also supports Dual SIM 5G that will help you connect with two 5G SIMs simultaneously, allowing users like me to always stay connected with speed.
Thus, the OPPO A53s 5G gets high points for being the most affordable 5G device with 6GB RAM in India till date.
A Svelte and Sanguine Design
Most phones with 5G and large battery are bulky and lack lustre in the design department. The OPPO A53s 5G is a stark deviation from those. With rounded edges, the device offers a delicate design that lends it its aesthetic appeal. At just 8.4 mm thin and weighing a mere 189.6 gm, the A53s 5G is the sleekest 5G device in the sub-15K price segment. The design of the device is crafted in a way that there are no compromises made while delivering top notch high-performance hardware. The devices come in two gorgeous color combinations: Ink Black and Crystal Blue. So, right from the get go, it looks premium and I really enjoyed both ogling and holding it in my hand.
The A53s 5G also offers a 6.5 inch display with a 269 PPI pixel density, HD resolution and a Waterdrop notch. This ensures that the visuals you get are going to be perfect. I personally enjoyed viewing content on this display. You see the bare-minimum bezels ensure stunning 88.7% screen-to-body ratio and an immersive viewing experience.
Now one thing the OPPO A53s 5G assures is eye protection with All-Day AI Eye Comfort. There are various features to support this like Flagship 4096 levels brightness that preserves the natural colors and details in the content, AI Smart Backlighting with which you can automatically adjust the backlight settings, and Sunlight screen that makes sure that the screen doesn’t wash out colors. Viewing the screen was pleasant and a strain free exercise for me.
Brilliant Memory and Storage Configuration
Now with the power of 5G and brilliant viewing experience you are bound to download and surf more content. And in order for the phone to match with the storage requirements of consumers, the A53s 5G offers128GB of big storage. If that’s not enough for you then you can expand the memory to 1TB with micro-SD card.
The OPPO A53s 5G also does not disappoint with RAM and endows two configurations of 6GB+128GB and 8GB+128GB. The key feature however is the RAM Expansion technology which is present on the A53s 5G. With RAM Expansion you are able to free up available RAM by temporarily moving low-frequency apps in the background to ROM space. What this essentially does is that it allows apps to launch faster giving me a smooth experience when I was switching between apps. With such a brilliant configuration, just like me, you too can now enjoy smooth performance without worrying about lag or running out of storage.
A 5000mAh Battery Champ
OPPO A53s 5G has a large 5000mAh battery. In my personal experience, the battery is easily able to last a day and a half with moderate to heavy usage. It freed me of a lot of battery anxiety especially what I usually feel while watching videos on my phone.
I also experienced some great battery saving modes on the A53s 5G. With Super Power Saving mode, the moment the battery hit the 10% mark, the phone prompted me to switch to this mode so that I could continue doing my tasks for a long time without any interruption. In addition to that, with Super Nighttime Standby mode, the phone only consumed 2% of its battery life while I slept. Overall I am quite pleased with the phone’s battery performance.
A Multi-faceted Camera Stack
OPPO A53s 5G comes with AI Triple rear camera (13 MP primary Camera + 2MP macro lens + 2MP Portrait lens).The front houses an 8 MP selfie camera that can click some great selfies, be it day or night. The device is capable of meeting varied photography needs.
When clicking pictures in the portrait mode you can personalize your picture with 6 available filters. The phone also makes use of AI Scene Recognition to recognize 22 different scenes and adjust the images to look more natural. But the highlight feature of the camera system is the Ultra Clear 108MP Image that ensures that you can get highly detailed pictures. This means now you can use these photos to zoom in and crop the selected areas for printing or sharing on your social media.
All in all the camera system is quite versatile. I liked clicking pictures with the device. And its accompanying AI enhancements did let me conjure some great clicks.
