Editorial report

Oppo A55 5G 8 GB / 128 GB / China technical sheet

The Oppo A55 5G suits people looking for a 5G phone with a high-capacity battery, provided they can do without Google Services and accept a modest camera. The configuration described has 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage; the phone is also sold with 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB. Storage can be expanded as well.

Its 13 MP camera is weaker than that of most phones of its time: the 1/3.06″ sensor is among the smallest, and the f/2.2 aperture is among the weakest. The 6.5″ display has 270 ppi and 480 nits peak brightness, both lower than on most phones launched around the same time. At 8.4 mm thick, the phone is thinner than most of its contemporaries.

The 5000 mAh battery has more capacity than most phones of its time, while 10 W charging is slower than on most. Overall, battery, performance and connectivity are typical; the camera is the clearest weakness. The Oppo A55 5G earns a NeoScore of 4.7. It makes sense for anyone prioritizing 5G and battery capacity who is comfortable without Google Services and does not need stronger camera specifications.
