OPPO A76 unboxing + Review: Built for an effortless productivity

The Oppo A76 is an affordable mid-range phone features a 6.56-inch screen with a 90Hz refresh rate, a snapdragon 680 4G chipset, and a 5,000mAh battery with 33W SuperVOOC.

Design:

Equipped with 6.56″ screen with 89.9% screen-to-body ratio, 90Hz Colour-Rich Punch-Hole Display and 8.4mm 3D curved body make it look thinner, with convenient features likes a side fingerprint unlock design that make it friendly for users.

OPPO A76 wo gorgeous color options: Glowing Black and Glowing Blue, though the design is fingerprint and dust resistant, the back is slippery and good thing that there’s silicone case included in the box. The phone feels pretty thin and lightweight and comfortable to grip even using just one hand.

Holding the phone, it feels very thin and has the right amount of weight. Also, this device is slim, making it pretty comfortable to grip and easy to slip into pockets.

Looking at the top of the phone, it has microphone while the bottom houses another microphone, a speaker grille, and a USB-C port for charging. I also love that it has 3.5mm audio jack that we appreciate since not everyone prefers wireless earphones over wired ones.

The left side has the SIM tray (2 nano-SIMs or one nano-SIM and a microSD card) and volume rocker while the right has the power button which also function as the fingerprint scanner (Up to five fingerprints can be registered and used.)

Camera:

This phone features a dual rear setup that consists of a 13MP main camera, and 2MP for bokeh camera. For ultra-clear selfies, you get an 8MP shooter. Camera quality is more than satisfactory on a well-lit day. The camera lens supports digital zoom of up to 5x, but it’s better to use the 1x zoom intense grainy picture it produces. Video and picture quality is decent however it’s safer to use gimbal when you’ll use it for vlogs or reels.



Performance and Battery:

The devise runs in ColorOS 11.1 that’s based on Android 11. You can easily customize features like change icon styles, app layout, fingerprint style, change font and colors. There’s also an app drawer option in the settings, and you can easily adjust the navigation buttons the way you want them to be arranged.
