OPPO A16e

OPPO A16e Launch in India

The Oppo A16e is the newest addition to the A16-Series of smartphones that Oppo has released. The mobile device is really comparable to the Oppo 16 that was released in the past. The CPU is the sole component that differs between the Oppo A16 and the Oppo A16e. Let’s have a look at the whole list of the Oppo A16e’s features, as well as its technical specs and cost.

OPPO A16e Price in India

According to a rumour, the Oppo A16e pricing in India has not yet been released, but two storage options are expected to be available. At Rs 9,990, you’ll get 3GB of RAM and 32Gb of storage; for Rs 11,990, you’ll get 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. All three colours of the Oppo A16e are available for purchase.

OPPO A16e Design

The phone’s chassis and rear panel are constructed of plastic, while Gorilla Glass 3 is used for protection. In addition, there are no dual speakers, but there is a 3.5mm headphone socket and a dedicated SD card slot. However, there is no fingerprint sensor.

OPPO A16e Display

Because the brand-new A16e is a low-cost phone, you should not anticipate it to have advanced features and characteristics. The display is 6.52 inches and has an HD+ LCD panel with a screen resolution of 1600 by 720 pixels and a refresh rate of 60 hertz (Hz). In addition to that, the screen features a screen-to-body ratio of 89.27 per cent and a brightness of 480 nits.

 OPPO A16e Performance

The mobile device is driven by an eight-core Mediatek Helio P22 chipset that is paired with an IMG GE8320 graphics processing unit. It has up to 4GB of RAM and up to 64GB of Disk space as standard features.

 The default operating system of the smartphone is ColorOS 11.1, which is based on Android 11. Oppo missed an opportunity here by not offering the Android 12 OS pre-installed on the device.

Additionally, at this price range, the Mediatek Helio P22 is not a suitable processor, and Oppo ought to have at least given the Helio G80.

The processor is also not as powerful as it should be, which contributes to the phone’s sluggishness and, on occasion, causes it to hang for a few seconds while launching applications. In general, you shouldn’t have very high expectations for the performance since you will end up being let down by it.

OPPO A16e Camera

The single rear camera on the Oppo A16e has a resolution of 13 megapixels and an aperture of f/2.2. It is housed in a square module. The waterdrop-shaped notch on the display houses a 5-megapixel lens for the front-facing camera that has an aperture of f/2.4. The front and back cameras both have the ability to capture movies at up to 1080p resolution at 30 frames per second.

The frequency response of the gadget is likewise fairly restricted, and the 13-megapixel back camera takes shots that are only average overall. When it comes to taking selfies, the 5MP front-facing camera is able to take images and is also of acceptable quality. Oppo must have at least offered a 13MP main camera here, but instead, they only gave a 5MP sensor for the front-facing camera.

At this pricing point, Oppo has to improve its cameras and deliver better cameras overall, but notably the front-facing selfie camera.

OPPO A16e Battery

The smartphone boasts a 4,230 mAh battery with support for 10W charging, however, Oppo has only included a Micro-USB connector for charging it, which is another letdown. Oppo has thoughtfully included the packaging with a 10W charger for your convenience. At this pricing range, though, this is completely unacceptable; Oppo should have included support for at least an 18-watt charging capability.

OPPO A16e Verdict

It is not worthwhile to purchase the Oppo A16e since the smartphone does not include a fingerprint reader, despite the fact that Oppo is selling it with an HD+ LCD display. Therefore, Oppo is just demanding more money for absolutely nothing in return.
