Oppo A56s 8 GB / 256 GB / China technical sheet
The Oppo A56s suits buyers after a relatively light, slim 5G Android phone who can accept a modest camera and slow charging. Its 186 g weight and 8 mm thickness are better than those of most phones launched around the same time, while the display and camera bring clearer compromises.
The 6.56″ IPS LCD display runs at 90 Hz, but both that refresh rate and its 269 ppi density are lower than those of most phones of its time. The rear camera's 13 MP resolution is also lower than most, and its 1/3.06″ sensor is among the smallest. It records video at 1080p at 30 fps, while the front camera is 8 MP. The battery has a capacity of 5000 mAh, a typical figure, but 10 W charging is slower than on most phones of its time. This version has no Google Services.
A MediaTek Dimensity 810, 8 GB of RAM, and Android 12 round out a package that also includes 5G, dual SIM, USB Type-C, and Bluetooth 5.2. The Oppo A56s is sold with 8 GB / 128 GB and 8 GB / 256 GB configurations. Its overall NeoScore is 4.9, and its overall standing is typical of phones launched around the same time. It is best suited to buyers who prioritize a relatively light, slim body and are comfortable with the camera and charging limitations.
