After teasing for days, OPPO has finally launched the OPPO A55 in India. The latest budget smartphone from the company arrives with a basic set of features. The device is all about its design rather than specifications.

OPPO A55 Specifications and Features

The newly unveiled OPPO A55 features a camera island design, unlike other OPPO phones in the market. It is IPX4-certified for splash resistance and comes in attractive color options, namely Starry Black and Rainbow Blue. The device measures 163.6 x 75.7 x 8.4mm in dimensions and weighs around 193g.

Lastly, it has a peak brightness of 550 nits under sunlight and NEG T2X-1 glass protection.

The phone is powered by a MediaTek Helio G35 chipset paired with 4GB/6GB LPDDR4x RAM and 64GB/128GB storage. If needed, the storage can be further expanded via a MicroSD card (up to 256GB).

As far as optics are concerned, the smartphone houses a triple rear camera array consisting of a 50MP primary sensor, a 2MP macro shooter, and a 2MP depth sensor. On the front, it has a 16MP punch hole camera on the top left corner for selfies and video calls.

Earlier this year, Oppo unveiled the Oppo A55 5G smartphone in the Chinese market with specs like Dimensity 700 SoC, triple rear cameras, and a big battery. Now, the Chinese phone maker is planning to launch its 4G variant in a few markets as the device was spotted on Taiwan’s NCC certification. Today, 91Mobiles has exclusively revealed the renders of the device ahead of its launch.

The Oppo A55 4G seems to pack a similar shell as the 5G variant but will have some noticeable differences. Firstly, the smartphone will make use of a punch-hole panel, which wasn’t the case with the predecessor as it had a water-drop notch screen. The screen seems to have a modern aspect ratio with slim bezels on top and sides, but a raised up chin at the bottom.

The device features a triple camera setup at the rear with a slightly tweaked camera island. The camera system is placed vertically but it has the LED flash at the lower side of the camera island. It is touted to have a 50MP main camera lens.

Moving to the sides, the smartphone has a power button on the right which will double as a fingerprint scanner for security. On the left, the device has a volume rocker. The renders also reveal the color variants of the smartphone. The device will come in Black, Green, and Gradient Blue color variants.

Other than this, the Oppo A55 4G is expected to have a big battery similar to the predecessor. It might be bigger than a 5,000mAh cell. The rest of the details of the smartphone are currently unknown. But, considering the pace of its leaks, we expect Oppo to announce the device soon.

Last week, two new OPPO smartphones, namely OPPO A16 and OPPO A55 were tipped to launch in India very soon. The former went official today, while the latter is yet to be introduced. Before the latter’s release, it has been spotted on NCC Taiwan with live images.

Not much is known about the yet-to-release OPPO A55. But thanks to NCC Taiwan (via @i_hsay), we now know the design of this handset.

As per the live images, the OPPO A55 will have a triple camera island similar to that of the OnePlus 9 series and the OnePlus Nord 2. The volume buttons will sit on the left side and the power key with an embedded fingerprint sensor will reside on the right.

The bottom of the phone will include multiple openings. This side of the smartphone features a 3.5mm headphone jack, a primary microphone, a USB Type-C port, and a speaker grille.

Other than the above-mentioned specifics, the certification also confirms the presence of a 5,000mAh battery with support for 18W charging. That said, we are still yet to learn more about this handset as the information available right now is still bleak.

The OPPO A55 with model number CPH2325 is expected to go official as the 4G variant of the OPPO A55 5G from earlier this year. It will be the direct successor of OPPO A54 and could launch anything soon in the coming days.
