Design
The OPPO A3 Pro 5G comes in two different colours for people to be able to choose from, the Starry Black and the Moonlight Purple, which is the version that I received. In fact, I personally prefer this colour between the two as I feel like it stands out more. The back showcases a light shade of purple, even more so when hit under the light, which gives it a brighter shine in its appearance, creating a lustrous and mysterious look.
The OPPO A3 Pro 5G has a sleek and slender design and is also lightweight with a dimension of 165.79 x 76.14 x 7.68 mm and it has a weight of 186g.
In addition to its stylish design, the A3 Pro 5G is also incredibly sturdy as it is built with 360° Damage-Proof Armour Body and comes with a special Panda Glass screen which ensures the phone will be in good condition even if it were punctured or dropped. In fact, due to its incredible durability, the OPPO A3 Pro 5G managed to earn the SGS Drop-Resistance Certification and SGS Military Standard Certification as well. Thus, even if you accidentally dropped your phone, your phone will still be alright.
Furthermore, the phone also comes with an Anti-Drop Shield Case which features corner cushioning to further enhance the protection for the phone while also maintaining its stylishness. Overall, I am impressed with the OPPO A3 Pro 5G’s design, especially with its sleek design.

Furthermore, I decided to test out the game’s performance by playing Wuthering Waves, a game that was recently released this year and has been known for many visual issues. After setting the game to the highest graphics and resolution, the game is able to run smoothly and there are little issues with lag.
Camera
Although the main focus on the phone is not its camera features, the OPPO A3 Pro 5G features an incredible AI-powered camera system which consists of an 50 MP AI main camera, which is decent enough to be able to snap well-detailed and ultra-clear pictures.
Furthermore, when it comes to portrait mode, the OPPO A3 Pro 5G utilises two cameras which work simultaneously in order to capture beautiful portrait images with bokeh backgrounds which will be sure to catch people’s attention.
AI Photography
The OPPO A3 Pro 5G also comes with several interesting AI features that are sure to enhance your images. One such feature is the AI Eraser. With the AI Eraser, you’ll be able to remove unwanted objects and passerby’s in the background and be replaced with seamless and realistic backgrounds to help make your pictures more stunning.

In addition, in terms of the battery consumption, after thirty minutes of playing, the battery had only gone down by 9% even after in Pro Gamer Mode.
