A3x successfully rolled out in Pakistan last year and the variants available in our market are only 4/64GB and 4/128GB. Now it's notified officially that the OPPO A3x variant with lower storage got its price slashed in the local market which knocked away Rs 5,000 from its retail cost.
This price cut means the 64GB Oppo A3x version will no longer sell for Rs 35,000. Oppo’s official price tag for this one is Rs 29,999 as of today, which will allow you to snag an A3x for cheap. But you might want to read about its features before making up your mind.
This phone is all about durability, so if that’s your cup of tea, it’s a great investment. Oppo went the extra mile to secure military-grade certifications for it. That shows on paper as MIL-STD-810H compliance. It’s no rugged phone, obviously, but it does mean that A3x has gone through rigorous testing for that extra peace of mind when you handle it.
Dust and waterproofing are limited to an IP54 rating, which means the new budget Oppo mobile is safe from splashes but not submersible in water. Still, you can even use it with wet hands, because A3x’s screen is great at detecting touches. The rest is pretty ordinary stuff, more aligned with entry-level phones.
It’s a 6.67-inch phone, display-wise. The panel is IPS with a 90Hz refresh rate at HD+ 720p resolution. It is bright though for an IPS LCD, at a 1000 nits brightness level. The SoC used by A3x is a Snapdragon 6s Gen 1, so it can handle most of the typical user activities just fine.
An 8 MP lens slapped on the back and a 5 MP selfie on the front are usable but not the best quality. You might appreciate its 45W fast charging and 5100mAh battery, which no brand offers at Rs 29,999. These specs of the OPPO A3's budget sibling are quite the steal for A3x’s new price tag.
