2. Superior photography functions
The entry-level smartphone is equipped with a 13MP camera with 1/3.06 sensor size for improved sensitivity. It can take clear photos even in dark surroundings, thanks to its multi-frame denoising technology.

3. Speedy operation
What could be considered as the banner feature of OPPO A71 is its ability to facilitate speedy operation. This could be attributed to its Color OS 3.1, which in turn is based on Android version 7.1. Experience fluid launching time of apps, get more intuitive controls, and have your eyes protected from possible eye-strain through its unique night-shield mode.
The smartphone also makes it possible for you to use two apps at the same time through its split-screen feature. Thus, you could now browse through the web while watching videos uninterruptedly.
All these and more are made possible with OPPO A71’s 3GB RAM, Octa-Core processor (for multitasking functions), and the reliable 3000mAh battery, which can supply energy to last an entire day.
