OPPO A83 Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
3.0/5
Verdict
In sum, the OPPO A83 is a decent offering, but its price tag of Rs 13,990 goes against it. As mentioned in the introduction, the A83 is up against some formidable opponents – right from the feature-packed Xiaomi Mi A1 (review) to the bezel-less Honor 7X (review). Both these phones bring powerful hardware as well as dual cameras at lower price tags. And while the A83 does offer a bezel-free display and AI-powered selfies, these features still aren`t enough to take on the competition.Had the price of the A83 been lower by a couple of grand, the phone could have been a worthy buy.

Even in that scenario, it`d have faced strong competition from the likes of the Honor 9 Lite (review) and the Billion Capture+ (review). As things stand right now, it`s hard to recommend the OPPO A83 – not because it`s not capable, but because the competition is simply better. Unless of course, you want to buy a smartphone that`s available easily in a neighbourhood retail store.
Pros
- Good aesthetics
- Decent selfies
- Powerful performance
Cons
- Reflective display
- Sub-par multitasking
- Average camera performance
- Priced on the higher side

The lowdown
+
The OPPO A83 isn't much different from its sibling, the F5 – save for its comparatively smaller footprint. Instead of a large 6-inch display, the latest from OPPO offers a 5.7-inch screen. Considering the phone has smaller bezels along the sides, and some bezels on top and the bottom – the dimensions of the device are similar to a 5.2-incher… making it extremely easy to operate single-handedly. Adding to the ergonomics is the curved rear and rounded corners. At 7.7mm, the handset is fairly slim.
