Beauty that shines from within
OPPO, a leading global smartphone brand, will soon introduce the first device they will launch in South Africa, the OPPO A72. Crafted to the highest technical and quality standards using the best available components, the A72 is a bold step forward into Mzansi that looks to introduce more people to the wonders of technology.
The exquisite OPPO A72 experience begins with a high resolution 6.5-inch display that covers over 90 percent of the front, uninterrupted by any unsightly intrusions so that you can see your world in all its beauty. That vivid viewing experience is kind on your eyes with TÜV Rheinland-certified Eye Care Protection that can automatically adjust screen brightness and reduce the amount of harmful blue light to suit the environment.
It continues as the screen melts into the frame and you journey around to the stunning back of the phone in its distinctive Twilight Black or Aurora Purple colour finish. This is where you find the constellation of powerful cameras. The 48MP main camera applies our bespoke AI to the large ½-inch sensor, tucked behind a pin sharp lens and the wide-open f/1.7 aperture maximises the amount of light the camera can take in. OPPO’s bespoke AI tuning then amplifies your image to deliver the best picture possible. The quad camera array is completed by a 119° ultra-wide angle lens and two unique portrait-style lenses.

OPPO A72 delivers Ultra Clear Night Mode 2.0 which further enhances the dynamic range of the photo to balance out the bright and dark areas to create a perfect exposure. This handset also supports Video Anti-Shake – our best stabilisation yet – Wide-Angle video, 4K recording and 120 frames per second slow motion.
Power that works for you
OPPO A72 harnesses the might of a Qualcomm Snapdragon 600-series processor by using our Hyper Boost performance engine to unlock the full potential of this system on chip (SoC), offering meaningful increases in the speed of apps and games, so that the system always runs smoothly even in the unlikely situation where you reach the limits of the 4GB LPDDR4x memory or call on the full read and write speeds of the 128GB UFS 2.1 storage.
A generous 5000mAh battery with 18W fast charge guarantees that you’ll spend more time enjoying that power and less time plugged into a charger.
The super-linear Dual Stereo Speakers support Hi-Res Audio enhanced with Dirac 2.0 which automatically detects the type of audio to give you a fully immersive experience.

Add colour to your life
ColorOS is a little bit of OPPO magic we’ve painted over the Android 10 and full suite of Google services you love to break down the barriers between you and your device so that you can make it truly your own. We added Eye Care Mode to the system-wide dark mode, and a Smart Sidebar to have your most used apps just a swipe away with a quick gesture to go into split screen so you don’t miss any of the action. It’s these signature OPPO technologies that sets the A72 apart in a competitive market segment, creating a new standard for quality so that many South Africans can open their eyes to something beautiful.
Priced at R6 999.00, the OPPO A72 in Aurora Purple and Twilight Black will be on sale from major retailers on 7 October 2020.
