Earlier today, OPPO launched the OPPO A55s in the Japanese market. The smartphone is tailored for the Japanese market, with specific features usually not found in budget OPPO smartphones sold globally, like IP68 rating.

OPPO A55s Specs and Features

The OPPO A55s features a 6.5-inch full HD+ LCD display with a 90Hz refresh rate and 180HZ touch sampling rate. The phone also features an IP68 rating, making it resistant to dust and submersion up to a maximum depth of 1.5m underwater for up to thirty minutes.

Under the hood, the OPPO A55s houses a Qualcomm Snapdragon 480 SoC, with 4GB RAM and 64GB onboard storage. The device is capable of memory expansion via a microSD card slot. The phone runs Android 11 out of the box with OPPO’s own ColorOS 11 custom skin and packs a 4000mAh battery with support for up to 18W fast charging.

In terms of camera, the OPPO A55s sports a dual-camera setup on the back, with a primary 13-megapixel camera with an f/2.2 aperture paired with a 2-megapixel depth sensor and a LED flash. There is an 8-megapixel camera on the front for video calls and selfies. The camera app offers various modes like Ultra Night Mode, Portrait Mode, AI Scene Enhancement, and AI beauty filters.

Other features

In terms of connectivity options, the OPPO A55s offers Bluetooth 5.0, dual-band Wi-Fi, 4G with VoLTE, and, of course, 5G. The device also has NFC with support for NTT DoCoMo Osaifu-Keitai and Sony FeliCa. The phone also provides an accelerometer, proximity sensor, compass, gyroscope, a USB-C port for charging and data transfer alongside a 3.5mm headphone jack.

Price and availability

OPPO A55s is priced at JPY 33,800 ($296). The phone will be going on sale in Japan starting November 26, but pre-orders for sale started earlier today. The phone is available in two color variants, namely Green and Black. The phone could launch in other markets in South Asia, but OPPO has not made any announcements regarding the device’s launch outside Japan yet.

OPPO is soon going to launch another budget offering dubbed OPPO A55s in various markets. Not much is known about the phone at the moment but we now have a look at what to expect from its design.

91mobiles has exclusively released renders of the OPPO A55s, courtesy of industry sources. The phone can be seen in black and green colors and most of its design has been exposed. The rear of the phone has a rectangular camera module that seemingly houses a triple camera array, much like the OPPO A54s. Other than this, the back is rather plain and minimal with no fingerprint sensor. This means that fingerprint authentication will be performed by the power button.

The front of the phone is largely occupied by a full-screen display that will most likely be an IPS LCD one. But unlike its predecessor which used a waterdrop notch, it comes with a punch-hole selfie snapper aligned to the left. The display is surrounded by reasonably slim bezels, although the bottom chin is slightly thick – nothing too bad for a phone of its price range. The top bezel holds the call speaker.

The OPPO A55s had previously appeared on Geekbench with the model number CPH2309. It managed to score 510 and 1592 in Geekbench’s single-core and multi-core tests, respectively. The listing revealed that the device is powered by a Qualcomm chip that includes six CPU cores clocking at 1.8GHz and two CPU cores working at 2.04GHz. These clues indicate that the Snapdragon 480 5G is present under the hood of the device. The chipset is coupled with 4GB of RAM and Android 11 OS.

Back in January, OPPO unveiled the Dimensity 700 powered OPPO A55 5G smartphone in China. In October, the company unveiled the OPPO A55 4G with Helio G35 chip onboard. Fresh information reveals that the company is now gearing to launch the OPPO A55s smartphone. It appears that its launch could be drawing near as it has appeared at the Geekbench benchmarking site.

Reports surrounding the CPH2309 have revealed that it will be heading to Japan as a SIM-free version. A variant of the phone with the A102OP model number is expected to release through a carrier named Softbank in Japan. The Bluetooth certification listings of the CPH2309 and A102OP have revealed that it will be debuting with the OPPO A55s 5G moniker.
