OPPO A5s, the A3s upgrade arrives in the Philippines

A few days after we first reported that the OPPO A5s is coming to the Philippines, Villman silently released the said device in their stores.

OPPO A5s

Successor of A3s

To recall, A5s is the follow-up to the successful A3s. It comes with improved design and beefier internals. It features a 6.22-inch HD+ screen with tiny waterdrop notch, 12nm Helio P35 chipset, 3GB RAM, 32GB storage, 4,230mAh battery, 13MP + 2MP dual-cam, 8MP selfie cam, fingerprint scanner, 4G LTE, and dual SIM slots.

2. More base RAM and ROM (3GB/32GB) for the same price of A3s last year.

3. It has a fingerprint scanner at the back.
