The Oppo A57 5G 13MP camera phone is now official, bringing a capable mid-range package to Oppo's A-series lineup. Positioned as an upgrade over the Oppo A56 5G, the new handset pairs a 13-megapixel rear camera system with a MediaTek Dimensity 810 chipset, a 5000mAh battery, and a smooth 90Hz display — all at a competitive price.

The rear camera setup on the Oppo A57 5G consists of a 13-megapixel primary sensor paired with a 2-megapixel portrait lens. For selfies and video calls, the phone offers an 8-megapixel front camera with an f/2.0 aperture. The 6.56-inch HD+ display delivers a 90Hz refresh rate and a 90Hz touch sampling rate, making scrolling and light gaming feel noticeably fluid. Graphics are handled by the Mali G57 MC2 GPU.

Powering the device is the octa-core MediaTek Dimensity 810 processor. Oppo offers two RAM configurations: 6GB and 8GB of LPDDR4x memory. Both variants come with 128GB of onboard storage — the 8GB model uses UFS 2.1 while the 6GB model uses UFS 2.2. A microSD card slot is included for those who need extra space. The phone ships with Android 12 under Oppo's ColorOS 12.1 skin.
