Third-party reviews

What we like about Oppo F31 5G (8GB + 256GB)

  • Extremely durable build quality with high IP ratings (IP66, IP68, IP69) for water and dust resistance, which is rare in its price segment.
  • Massive 7,000mAh battery that easily lasts one to two days with moderate to heavy usage.
  • Very fast 80W SuperVOOC charging capable of reaching 50% charge in under 25 minutes.
  • Bright, sharp 6.57-inch AMOLED display with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate and 1400 nits peak brightness, offering vibrant colors and good outdoor visibility.
  • Stylish and premium-feeling design, despite its sturdy build.
  • Reliable and smooth performance for daily tasks and moderate gaming, with efficient thermal management to prevent overheating.
  • Decent main 50MP camera that captures sharp images with good detail and natural skin tones, especially in good lighting.
  • Comes with essential accessories like a charger and protective case in the box.
  • Includes a 3.5mm headphone jack, a feature appreciated by wired audio users.
  • Offers a smooth and user-friendly software experience (ColorOS 15) with minimal and uninstallable bloatware.

What we don't like about Oppo F31 5G (8GB + 256GB)

  • The ultra-wide and macro cameras are considered average and not a major highlight.
  • Low-light camera performance struggles with noise and light flare, and details can be lost compared to some competitors.
  • Performance might be limiting for hardcore gamers, as slight frame drops can occur at high settings in demanding games.
  • The phone is slightly heavier and bulkier due to the large battery, which might not suit all users.
  • The software has some pre-installed apps (bloatware) that, while mostly removable, can be annoying.

Verdict

The Oppo F31 5G (8GB + 256GB) is a mid-range smartphone with a focus on durability, battery life, and display quality. It features a 6.57-inch 120Hz AMOLED display, a massive 7000mAh battery with 80W SuperVOOC fast charging, and is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 processor. The phone boasts impressive IP66, IP68, and IP69 water and dust resistance ratings, along with a 360° armor body for enhanced ruggedness, which are major pros for active users. Photography is handled by a dual rear camera setup (50MP main + 2MP depth) and a 16MP front camera, running on Android 15 with ColorOS 15. A potential con is the dual rear camera setup, which lacks a versatile ultra-wide or telephoto lens, and the processor might be considered slightly underwhelming compared to some competitors in the same price range.
