A Classy Looking Phone that Performs Well: OPPO A95

I spent a couple of weeks using this phone and by any standard, it's pretty sick. This is the OPPO A95, one of OPPO's newest phones in the market and with what I've heard, this does photos and videos quite well. That's something that I need especially for creating content these days because quality before I even edit things, is certainly something that I wanted to have.

Really Good Hardware

Specs wise, the OPPO A95 doesn't dissapoint because the battery life is quite phenomenal. With 5000mAh, you can last the whole day and even have more for music and media when your events call for it. With their 33W Flash Charge, it won't be problematic if you're charging the phone for a few minutes. Equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 662 and proprietary System Booster, you'll have performance happen on the most resource draining applications like games or editing software, which I'm pretty fond of using. I played Mobile Legends and CODM with it, heating was actually not an issue even though I've probably expected it to do so. Albeit having a plastic back panel, it didn't feel uncomfortable during the hours I've handled it. OPPO made the OPPO A95 also look classy, with that sheen you find in pearls, it has made the variant I handled (Glowing Rainbow Silver) look expensive yet stay very light.

The phone also has 8GB+128GB ROM plus its capability to expand storage. The screen is wide at 6.43 inch, so you kinda enjoy watching YouTube videos and movies when on landscape. Here's how I unboxed it a few days ago.

 

 The OS is good

With its ColorOS 11.1, the interface is very smooth when you switch apps. I tried memory hogging apps for video editing and games, but so far, I've never had it hang at all.

Pretty Good Cameras

This has got 3 cameras at the back that's got 48MP, 2MP for the depth of field and 2MP for the macro shots. The portrait mode was actually not too overly processed and got the blurry parts right. It also didn't make the image too warm which is something that I've noticed on other brands but that's another story. The AI mode for Beautification was just enough to cover little imperfections, you can even do without it tbh. If you're fond of going back to events, even if it's dark where you're at, the night mode on front and back should do you good. They too must have figured 4K videos is a little too heavy to be edited hence the 1080P on this handset. All your raw videos can be edited on their propreitary software called SoLoop, though I haven't used it yet it kinda does things automatically so it's not gonna be hard to learn how to use it. It's also a lot easy on the eyes as it's got AI Eye Care which automatically detects brightness and adjusts the screen to your liking, or manually, you can do it too.

Does it justify the price point? Certainly, it's got a lot of premium features but remained mid-range, I think that's good. If you want to know more about the OPPO A95, check out OPPO's social channels and official website. There's lots of things you will like about it. I'm practically sold on the photos.

New Spruced Up Store, OPPO F5 at the OPPO Carnival at SM Annex

I couldn't find my excitement when I learned that OPPO is actually doing an event at SM North Edsa Annex a few days ago. It was called OPPO CARNIVAL and there were tons of activities prepared for the public including race car simulations, 360 degree selfies, basketball exercises and a phone launch as they also introduce the OPPO F5. 

They also opened up the new OPPO Store at the mall's 4th floor. It's actually HUGE and very open. You would see it in one go as it's very much an open concept. They invited ABSCBN's Alex Gonzaga and Ronnie Alonte to join the festivities and participate in games for the crowd. It was deafening when they came out of back stage, but both were funny, very game as they did the few games that OPPO prepared for the crowd. Then we got to take a look at the star of the show, this is the OPPO F5!

I like how powerful it is, plus the fact that it takes really good selfies. It was impressive especially on the portrait modes because you could see the bokeh or depth of field. OPPO is employing their own AI on the phone that's already got 16 MP back camera and a 20 MP front one. It runs on Nougat right from the get go so not so much updates afterwards. I've had the pleasure of seeing it ahead of everyone a couple weeks ago when it all was on secret. I wanted the F3 in the past but this one really was on a whole new league. This one is the Black version but I like the Gold one which makes it more premium.

It retails for Php 15,990. If you see the photos yourself you'll say it's worth every penny. I guess for the price you deserve a really good camera, and you'll get exactly that with the OPPO F5.
