Editorial report

Oppo A74 5G technical sheet

The Oppo A74 5G suits anyone looking for a 5G phone with a sharp display and a high-capacity battery. Its 5000 mAh battery has more capacity than most phones launched around the same time, and fast charging is rated at 18 W. Those figures describe battery capacity and charging, rather than hours of use.

The 6.5-inch IPS LCD display has a pixel density of 405 ppi, higher than on most phones of its time. Its 90 Hz refresh rate is typical. At 8.4 mm thick, the phone is thinner than most of its contemporaries. The 48 MP rear main camera has an f/1.7 aperture, among the best of its time, while the camera setup overall is typical. Performance is typical too, with 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage in this configuration.

Connectivity is better than on most phones launched around the same time, and includes 5G, NFC, dual SIM, and Bluetooth 5.1. The 18 W charging rate and camera setup are not standouts among phones of its time. With a NeoScore of 5.4, the Oppo A74 5G is a balanced fit for someone prioritizing 5G, a high-density display, and a 5000 mAh battery, rather than standout performance or camera capabilities.
