Pros and Cons

Oppo A80 5G

Strengths

At $369, the Oppo A80 5G is a bargain, particularly when you consider that it is technically drop proof.
The phone has a robust build with a 360-degree damage-proof armor body, which can withstand drops of up to 1.4M on every side and corner.
It has a fast refresh rate (120Hz) and high brightness level (up to 1000 nits), making the user interface seem smoother and scrolling faster.
The phone's battery life is impressive, with a capacity that will last for at least four years, retaining up to 80% of its charge over time.
It supports Oppo's Super VOOC charging up to 45W, although the fast charger is not included in the box.

Weaknesses

The phone has a relatively low-quality camera with AI editing functions that are not great and can even introduce new issues (e.g., adding unwanted objects).
It only comes with a 720p display, which is expected given its budget price point.
The processor is on the lower end in terms of performance, and it's actually a bit worse than the A79 in CPU benchmarks.
You don't get the fast charger in the box, which feels like an unnecessary extra cost.
It only comes with 2 years of operating system updates, which seems short given its robust build and long-lasting battery life.
