Oppo might be gearing up to bring a new A series smartphone into the global as well as Chinese markets. The handset in question should be called the Oppo A98 and its launch seems near as it has already bagged several certifications, including NBTC, TDRA, and CQC. In the latest development, the mid-range smartphone has appeared on Malaysia’s SIRIM certification website. Here are the details.

Oppo A98 is expected to debut as a mid-range smartphone with some impressive features. You can expect the device to carry an immersive display, a premium design, and a decent processor. It should arrive as the successor to the Oppo A97, which was unveiled last summer in China. Circling back to the smartphone’s SIRIM listing, it has been spotted with the model number CPH2529. The listing itself isn’t anything interesting but it hints at a nearby launch of the device.

Previous listings of the device have revealed it will support 67W fast charging and offers 5G connectivity. Notably, a TENAA listing from last year revealed the handset will sport a 6.7-inch AMOLED display with an integrated fingerprint scanner and a Full HD+ resolution. We expect the smartphone to offer at least a 90hz refresh rate. While it is unclear which chipset will power the device, the listing revealed it will be a 2.2GHz octa-core processor, paired with up to 12GB of RAM and 512GB of internal storage.

The smartphone is believed to be fueled by a 4,690mAh battery pack. In the rear camera department, it will get a 108MP primary camera accompanied by a 2MP depth sensor. The front may get a 16MP selfie shooter. Currently, there’s no official confirmation from the brand so take these specs with a pinch of salt.
