The Oppo A3s, the company claims, is the first Oppo smartphone in the South Asian market that comes with a 13-megapixel and 2-megapixel dual rear camera setup along with an 8-megapixel AI enabled front camera. Oppo says its ‘AI Beauty’ technology employs a cloud database from premium suppliers that have sufficient power to support diversified facial recognition in smart terminals. It claims that the technology “is like a thinking photographer rather than a rigid software program.”
The 6.2-inch display comes with a notch and 88.8 percent screen-to-body ratio. To improve the screen ratio, Oppo has used flux dispensing technology to narrow down the border by 16 percent to 2.05mm thin. There is a Music Party feature in the Oppo A3s that can be used to increase the volume by employing multiple smartphones. You just need to connect the smartphones with ColorOS 5.1 or higher version OS to play the same track.
