In the camera department, the A77 5G offers two cameras and is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 810 SoC. The processor is an octa-core powerhouse with six efficiency-led 2.0 GHz Cortex-A55 cores and two 2.4 GHz Cortex-A76 performance cores, plus a Mali-G57 MC2 graphics chipset.

PERSONAL THOUGHTS ABOUT THE OPPO A77 5G
For a workhorse, I think the new A77 5G is the perfect phone, especially those who do not have the time to charge their smartphones often.
The large battery which can be quickly charged, provides uninterrupted use of the smartphone, and I think this is a major selling point for the phone among those always on the move.
It falters slightly in the camera section and processor section, but if you just want a smartphone that works, it’s a good deal.
