Russian announcement. OPPO A91 - with NFC, but something is a little expensive

The OPPO A91 smartphone came to Russia. Solid middle class with an AMOLED screen, a quad camera, an NFC module. About TTX a paragraph later, now about money. The officially announced price is $ 27,990 ($ 408) for the version 8 + 128 GB.


Good. And what about China? In the official store, the same version of 8 + 128 GB costs ¥ 1799 (₽17500, $ 255). But this is the price for the inhabitants of the Middle Kingdom. What about Aliexpress? And here you are. $ 235.99 (₽16400) in a well-known popular store with a good reputation. Delivery, as usual, is free. What's the catch? Apparently, in the absence of the Chinese version of the NFC module. I do not see other differences. And personally, are you ready to overpay ten thousand for NFC? Me not.

Briefly about the device itself. Chipset MediaTek Helio P70. Not the freshest - 2018, not the most powerful - less than two hundred thousand points in AnTuTu. It is found in frankly budget smartphones. For example, ZTE Blade V10 can be bought for less than $ 10,000 ($ 146) (and here, and not in China). Using such a chip in a device priced at thirty thousand looks strange.

But there is a lot of memory. 8 GB of RAM, 128 GB of storage - just like in the best houses. Support for memory cards is, a separate tray.

Android is not the latest, ninth. Plus a proprietary shell ColorOS 6.1.

But the screen inspires respect. 6.4 ″ AMOLED matrix, high resolution (1080 × 2400, 411 ppi). A small drop-shaped cutout under the front camera. The fingerprint scanner is integrated into the screen.

The battery is not bad, 4025 mAh. Supports VOOC 3 fast charge (50% in 30 minutes).

Cameras. Front - 16 MP, rear - 48 + 8 + 2 + 2 MP (main, wide-angle, macro, depth sensor). There are few reviews on the OPPO A91 yet. But a few examples of photographs can be found, for example, here.

Of the positive aspects, one can also note the presence of an NFC module, normal audio output, and pleasant appearance. A cover is included in the package. A trifle, but also nice.

But even if with a case. Still a little expensive.
