Oppo A79 Debuts with Dimensity 6020 SoC at Rs 19,999،
The Oppo A79 leaked a few days ago and now it’s official. Powered by Dimensity 6020, the Oppo A79 sports a triple rear camera, ColorOS 13.1 based on Android 13 with 8GB RAM and 128GB onboard storage expandable up to 1TB.
Oppo A79 price and availability
The Oppo A79 is available in India from October 28 for INR 19,999 via Amazon.in, Flipkart, Oppo India website and major retail outlets. You can choose between Glowing Green and Mystery Black colors, where I would say the former looks great.
Get up to INR 2,000 cashback and/or no-cost EMI for up to 6 months using credit cards offered by SBI, OneCard, IDFC First Bank, Bank of Baroda and AU Small Finance Bank, for no more name just a few.
Oppo A79 specifications
Oppo launched the Oppo A79 with a centrally placed punch-hole cutout housing an 8MP selfie camera. The display is a 6.72-inch FHD+ 90Hz LCD with Panda Glass protection on top. It can illuminate at a maximum brightness of 680 nits and displays 391ppi. The Chinese manufacturer brands the screen with the slogan “You can see every detail, even in direct sunlight” which remains to be seen. You get Widevine L1 certification with the device which ensures 1080p video playback on streaming giants such as Netflix and Amazon Prime Video.
Moving on, we have a Dimensity 6020 SoC under the hood. There’s 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM paired with 128GB of UFS 2.2 storage, which matches the price. The phone has expandable memory via microSD card of up to 1TB, which is not surprising considering that somehow only flagship devices are locked without expandable memory, unless you get a larger internal storage variant for more space.
Optically, we have an 8MP selfie camera as mentioned above. There is a dual rear camera housed in two giant circles that includes a 50 MP primary Samsung ISOCELL JN1 snapper along with a 2 MP depth sensor.
The Oppo A79 is powered by a 5,000mAh battery under the hood flanked by 33W wired charging support, the same as the Xiaomi Redmi Note 12. Apart from this, the Oppo A79 is rated UO54, a USB-C port, 3.5mm headphone jack, side-mounted fingerprint scanner, 5G support, dual stereo speaker setup with Ultra Volume mode up to 300% volume on speakers speakers and 200% on calls with headphones.
The Oppo A78 that arrived earlier this year had a Dimensity 700 SoC and the screen measures 6.56 inches (269ppi), but everything else is the same.
