Summary of the review

Third-party reviews

What customers like about Oppo A77s (8GB + 128GB)

  • Premium-looking aesthetic with a 'fiberglass leather' finish option
  • Excellent battery life, typically lasting over a full day on a single charge
  • Fast 33W SUPERVOOC charging that reaches 100% in about 70 minutes
  • Immersive audio experience provided by dual stereo speakers
  • Smooth day-to-day performance for social media and light multitasking
  • Decent 50MP main camera performance in bright daylight conditions

What customers don't like about Oppo A77s (8GB + 128GB)

  • Snapdragon 680 chipset is underpowered for heavy gaming
  • Low display resolution (720p) compared to rivals in the same price bracket
  • Lack of Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS) leads to shaky video recordings
  • Camera performance drops significantly in low-light/night conditions
  • Outdated waterdrop notch design instead of a modern punch-hole cutout
  • Overpriced for the specifications offered when compared to competitors

Verdict

The Oppo A77s (8GB + 128GB) is a reliable 4G smartphone featuring a 6.56-inch IPS LCD display with a smooth 90Hz refresh rate and HD+ resolution (1612 x 720 pixels), powered by a 6nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 680 processor. Key pros include its substantial 5000mAh battery with 33W SUPERVOOC fast charging, a capable 50MP main camera, 8GB of RAM with virtual expansion support for smooth multitasking, and a durable, stylish design with an IPX4 water resistance rating. Potential cons are the use of a lower 720p display resolution which is a drawback for the price point, the lack of an ultrawide camera lens, and limited major Android OS updates.
