OPPO Reno 3A Debuts: 48MP Quad Camera, 30W Charging, IP68 Rating

Karamchand Rameshwar - Jun 25, 2020

The OPPO Reno3 A is a new mid-range that features IP68 rating, 48MP quad rear cameras, beefy battery with 30W fast charging support, and 6.44" AMOLED display.

OPPO has just launched a new mid-range smartphone in Japan, called OPPO Reno 3A. The phone looks quite similar to Reno3 5G, with quad cameras on the back and a water-drop notch screen design, and slightly less-powerful specifications.

Oppo Reno3 A Feature — Reno 3A was rumored to arrive in India in April, but that didn't happen.

OPPO Reno 3A: Price & Availability

As expected, OPPO will allow users to pre-order Reno 3A from June 25 in two color options, White and Black. The device only comes in a single memory option of 6GB of RAM and 128GB storage. The OPPO Reno3 A price 39,800 JPY (around Rs. 28,000). If the Reno3 A is released in India at the same price, it will be crushed by other great phones like POCO X2, Realme X2 Pro, Redmi K20 Pro, and more.

Hopefully, if OPPO does bring the phone to India, it will set the price of the Reno3 A lower to compete against smartphones from Realme, Redmi, and other brands.
