A week ago Chinese OEM OPPO launched the OPPO A74 5G in India. The device featured Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 480 chip and the Snapdragon X51 modem-RF system at a starting price of ₹17,990, which earned it the title of the cheapest 5G phone in the region.

The new device, called the OPPO A53s 5G, features MediaTek’s Dimensity 700 chipset, up to 8GB of RAM, and 128GB of onboard storage. Read on to learn more about the latest 5G-ready phone from OPPO.
