Oppo A6s

OhoPrice editorial review

Our Take: The Oppo A6s is genuinely puzzling at 89,999 PKR. Its 6.75-inch screen is only 1570×720 — about 256 PPI, which looks soft on a phone priced like a midrange device — and the display type is listed as N/A, so it may even be an LCD. What it does offer is a big 7000mAh battery, a modern Dimensity 6300 chip (the same silicon the 5G Realme rival uses), 8GB/256GB and a 50MP rear camera with a 16MP front. The combination of a flagship-sized battery with an entry-level-resolution screen at a premium price is unusual, and the missing dimensions make the body size unverifiable. Only buy this after handling it and confirming the display quality in person. The Realme 14T 5G is 10,000 PKR cheaper and is the more coherent device. Its 120Hz AMOLED at ~395 PPI makes the A6s's 720p panel look ancient, it confirms 5G support that the A6s's listing does not, and it offers 12GB RAM against 8GB with matching 256GB storage and a 50MP camera. The A6s answers with the larger 7000mAh battery against 6000mAh and a bigger 16MP front camera. If you value the screen, 5G and RAM, the Realme 14T 5G is the obvious buy; the A6s only wins for the battery, and paying a premium for a 720p screen is hard to justify. Verify the A6s IMEI with PTA's DIRBS before paying — and be sure to see the actual display quality, since the panel is the weak point.
