Editorial report

Oppo A9 (2020) technical sheet

The Oppo A9 (2020) suits buyers who prioritize battery capacity and can live with slow charging. Its 5000 mAh battery holds more charge than most phones of its time, while 10 W fast charging is slower than on most. The phone has a large 6.5-inch IPS LCD display.

The display is a clear compromise: peak brightness of 480 nits is below average, and its 270 ppi density is lower than on most phones of its time. The 60 Hz refresh rate is average. AnTuTu performance, at 143,000, is below average, but its 8 GB of RAM is more than in most phones of its time. Storage is 128 GB and expandable.

The 48 MP main camera resolution is higher than that of most phones of its time, though its 1/2.25-inch sensor is below average. An 8 MP ultrawide camera adds a wider shooting option; there is no optical zoom or optical image stabilization. NFC, USB-C and dual Nano-SIM support accompany connectivity that is above average. Overall, design and display are worse than most, while performance, camera, connectivity and battery are above average or better. Its NeoScore is 4.9. The A9 (2020) is a reasonable fit for anyone seeking a large battery and generous RAM who is willing to accept slow charging, modest screen sharpness and below-average benchmark performance.
