NeoTeo's verdict

Which of the two is the better buy

Oppo A9 (2020) is the most complete choice for camera and working memory, with a 48 MP main camera and 8 GB of RAM. Oppo A11 answers with 256 GB of storage, twice the 128 GB in the A5 (2020) and A9 (2020). The A5 (2020) trails on the differences buyers are most likely to feel and makes sense only if it costs less.

The A9 (2020) separates itself in photography with a 48 MP rear main camera versus 12 MP on both the A11 and A5 (2020), plus a 16 MP front camera versus 8 MP. The A5 (2020) and A9 (2020) also record slow-motion video, unlike the A11. Their screens share the same 6.5-inch IPS LCD and 720 × 1600 px resolution; the A5 adds Gorilla Glass 3, while the A9 adds Gorilla Glass 3 and an Always-On Display.

The A11 has more storage at 256 GB, but its 6 GB of RAM falls short of the A9’s 8 GB; the A5 combines 128 GB with 6 GB. All three use the Snapdragon 665, a 5,000 mAh battery, 10 W charging, reverse charging, and expandable storage. The A11 adds QZSS to navigation, while the A5 and A9 include NFC—useful side differences, but not reasons to overturn the main choice.

Oppo A11 is the better buy for anyone who prioritizes 256 GB of storage.

Oppo A9 (2020)

Oppo A9 (2020) is the better buy for anyone seeking a 48 MP main camera and 8 GB of RAM.
