Kuala Lumpur, 10th November 2023 – OPPO Malaysia is excited to introduce the new OPPO A79 5G – the brand’s latest smartphone designed to offer a stunning and refined appearance with its all-new Glowing Feather Design. Boasting 33W SUPERVOOCTM flash charging and an impressive 5,000mAh battery, this smartphone also includes expanded storage configurations and a range of hardware and software enhancements, ensuring a seamless, reliable and enduring user experience. This smartphone aligns perfectly with the tagline of the OPPO A Series,‘A-volution of Quality For All’.
Unique and Elegant Glowing Feather Design
The OPPO A79 5G is available in two stylish colour finishes: Dazzling Purple and Mystery Black. The Dazzling Purple finish features an exclusive Glowing Feather Design, which utilises a special texture to give the smartphone a dynamic and feather-like touch, creating an exquisite diamond-like appearance. This slim and stylish smartphone weighs approximately 193 grams and measures only 7.99 mm in thickness[1], providing a more comfortable grip for all styles of play.
On the stunning back cover, the rear camera area design draws inspiration from mechanical watches, presenting a luxurious dial design with a reflective texture within an oval panel decorative area. This unique detail creates a sense of depth and a three-dimensional effect, reflecting light and shadow differently when viewed from various angles.
The OPPO A79 5G is also IP54-rated[2], which means it can withstand everyday splashes and dust. Having undergone hundreds of tests in OPPO’s global quality lab, the A79 5G offers proven durability, allowing users to work, play, and multitask without worrying about protecting their phones.
A-volution of Screen Quality for All
On the front of the phone, the new A79 5G features a 6.72-inch large FHD+ Sunlight Display with a top-center punch hole, ensuring a larger screen for an enhanced and immersive gaming and audio-visual experience.
The display’s 680 nits peak brightness[3] makes it easy to read text even in the midday sun. Additionally, the high 1080 × 2400 resolution and support for a 100% DCI-P3 colour gamut provide significantly enhanced colour saturation and colour accuracy, delivering more impactful visuals with realistic and vibrant colours.
A-volution of Battery Quality for All
The A79 5G is equipped with a large 5,000mAh battery that can be charged to 100% in about 74 minutes using OPPO’s 33W SUPERVOOCTM flash charge technology. On a single full charge, users can enjoy up to 26 hours of phone calls, 14 hours of YouTube viewing, or 6 hours of PUBG play. Additionally, a 5-minute charge provides up to 1.4 hours of YouTube video viewing or 2.6 hours of phone calls[4].
A-volution of Speaker Quality for All
To complement this outstanding display and provide a more all-encompassing immersive entertainment experience, the A79 5G is equipped with new Dual Stereo Speakers. These speakers offer up to 86%[5] more volume compared to the previous generation, delivering fuller and richer stereo surround sound quality. Combined with the built-in algorithms, the Dual Stereo Speakers optimise noise reduction and echo suppression for clearer calls in any situation. Additionally, enhanced surround sound enables better immersion in entertainment.
For moments when even more volume is required, the upgraded Ultra Volume Mode on the A79 5G can increase the sound output of the speakers by as much as 300%[6], allowing users to enjoy their favourite songs even in the noisiest environments and ensuring they never miss an incoming call. When using earpieces, Ultra Volume Mode also offers the option to increase the volume by up to 200% without affecting audio quality during phone calls or voice calls on WhatsApp and Messenger[7].
A-volution of Performance Quality for All
When it comes to storage, the A79 5G offers an 8GB RAM + 256GB ROM configuration. OPPO’s RAM Expansion technology has also been introduced to temporarily convert free ROM space into a maximum of 8GB of RAM, always ensuring the phone runs smoothly.
In addition to the upgraded hardware, OPPO’s proprietary Dynamic Computing Engine enhances the overall experience on the A79 5G. The system-level computing center uses parallel computing technology to intelligently schedule computing resources, boosting overall smoothness and stability in everyday scenarios. This Engine not only accelerates app opening speeds but also keeps more apps running smoothly in the background, even in heavy-load scenarios.
With these optimisations, the A79 5G has passed the OPPO Lab 36-Month Fluency Protection test, ensuring guaranteed fluency for up to 36 months[8]. This allows users to enjoy the same smoothness as a new phone even after extended periods of use.
A-volution of Camera for All
For a better imaging experience, the OPPO A79 5G comes equipped with a powerful camera system, including a 50MP AI Camera, a 2MP Portrait Camera, and an 8MP Selfie Camera. With the main camera and its super-resolution algorithms, it’s now possible to capture 108MP Ultra-Clear Images filled with intricate details. Additionally, a range of creative imaging features, such as AI Portrait Retouching, Portrait Mode, Ultra Night Mode, and Selfie HDR, make it easier to capture stunning portraits in any scenario, allowing image subjects to stand out with natural beauty.
