Oppo A73 5G

Oppo A73 5G product description

The Oppo A73 is a friendly-priced 5G phone with a smooth screen display, lots of storage, and a triple camera on the back. This thin device is also beautifully designed. How beautiful exactly is something you can read here.

Fast for little

Oppo has already incorporated the biggest plus of the A73 into the name. This is a 5G phone, ready for the future. Thanks to 5G, you can surf the Internet, stream videos, and upload photos at lightning speed. Provided you have a 5G subscription. The 5G support is made possible by the Dimensity 720 chip from MediaTek. This is a mid-range chipset but one that has a relatively large amount of RAM: 8GB. This combination provides more than acceptable performance without paying the top price. Therefore, the A73 5G is not very expensive.

Quick screen

On the front of the A73 5G, Oppo applies a 6.5-inch screen called Neo-Display. What makes it special is its high 90Hz refresh rate. By refreshing images 90x per second, animations like scrolling look fast and smooth. Faster and smoother than traditional 60Hz screens. As modern as the screen looks, it does lack built-in fingerprint recognition. Oppo applies that on the side, in the power button. Your fingerprint is recognised in less than 0.3 seconds, after which you have access to your beloved phone. It is safe and fast. The screen also has a small round hole in the top left corner for the selfie camera. It has an 8MP sensor and a bright f/2.0 lens with a 79° wide viewing angle. Thanks to the AI beautification mode that automatically removes blemishes, you can show off to your best advantage.

Simple but complete camera system

On the back of the Oppo A73 5G, we find a triple camera system consisting of a 16MP primary camera, an 8MP ultra-wide-angle, and a 2MP portrait lens. The primary camera is "only" 16MP in size, revealing that we are dealing with a budget phone. Yet this camera knows how to take excellent and sharp shots in broad day-light. You switch to the ultra wide-angle camera with its wide 119° viewing angle for wider shots. And in combination with the portrait lens, the A73 5G knows how to blur backgrounds, making portrait photos look extra professional. Inside we find a 4040mAh large battery to shoot pictures and videos for a long time. It is nice that this battery can be charged quickly with 18W. Content can be stored on the built-in 128GB storage memory, which is very spacious in this price category but unfortunately not expandable.
