OPPO A74 5G Review

Score: 71.5 / 100

OPPO A74 5G is an absolutely great Android cellphone released some years ago, with a 6.5" screen, an extremely powerful Octa-Core CPU speeding at 2 GHz, a 48 megapixels back-facing camera and an 8 MP front camera.

Oppo made this phoneavailable just in 2 colors, fluid black and space silver. This phone is only 6.41 inches long, but it's still able to fit a a 6.5 inches display. Being just 0.33" thick,the OPPO A74 5G is extremely slim and stilized. Oppo appears to have forgotten about weight optimization in this 6.7 oz device.

Oppo ships this phone with a high-tech 2 gigahertz Octa-Core CPU, included in the Qualcomm Snapdragon 480 SM4350 chip and a great 6 GB RAM. The OPPO A74 5G counts with a 128 GB impressive internal memory and though it doesn't include a slot for SD memory cards, it is still enough to store lots of apps, games, pictures and videos without having to worry about filling it.

This phone includes a gorgeous 6.5 inches screen with a 1080 x 2400 resolution, providing this phone with a very detailed graphical experience.

This phone provides wifi capability (which it can share with other devices around, acting as a mobile hotspot), 5G incredibly fast connectivity, 4G LTE-A super quick connection and also HSPA+ internet connection (which is a bit slower 4G type) and 3G fast internet connection, over HSDPA technologies. This phone has two Nano SIM cards to be able to to use two different phone numbers and even different carriers at the same time.

This device features two cameras, a 48 mega-pixels back camera and an 8 MP front camera. Its back camera has an aperture of F1.7 so it can capture impressive pictures even in low lighting conditions. It also captures videos in 1920x1080 (Full HD) at 30 fps. To complete the camera, it also includes time lapse video.

This cellphone features amassive 5000 mAh non-replaceable battery providing this phone an impressive battery duration. An issue to evaluate is that this phone's battery is non-removable so you won't be able to replace it when it starts to lose capacity, whereas with so much capacity you will probably buy a new device before that happens.

This device also includes a lot of useful characteristics like Fingerprint Scanner, Biometric facial recognition, NFC (to trigger actions, transfer data or make payments by holding your phone close to another NFC device or tag), Bluetooth and GPS, and plenty of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

This phone is probably the right choice for you if you want a phone mostly for internet broswing and social networks, are an amateur photographer, want this cellphone for work or are looking for a phone for playing games.
