In the last few years, not only did we get to witness a lot of great innovation in the upper end of the smartphone world, with mind blowing flagship phones but we also got to see some excellent specs and features trickle down to the budget segment of mobile phones with entry level devices offering a lot more than they did a couple of years prior. Most importantly, we saw that many phone enthusiasts decided to up their budgets and go for a mid range phone, which meant a spike in the quality of smartphones in that price range as well. And Oppo was there for it all, launching premium devices like the Find X, and affordable phones as part of the F series and of course, for the mid range, the Oppo Reno series. But today, we have a mid range phone that has made its debut — the Oppo A72. This new phone is an all rounder, offering good specs and affordability in one package. You have a 6.5-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels on its 20:9 screen. The Oppo A72 packs a Snapdragon 665 chipset from Qualcomm inside and is also equipped with 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. You get a run of the mill quad camera setup on the back in a 48MP + 8MP + 2MP + 2MP configuration. For selfies and video calls, the Oppo A72 features a 16MP front facing sensor. The phone runs on Android 10 with ColorOS as a skin over it. The battery life is excellent thanks to the tank that has a capacity of 50000mAh. Some of the popular Oppo mobile phones include the Oppo A92s, the Oppo Find X2, and the Oppo Reno 4 Pro.
