For taking photos, it has a 13MP + 2MP dual-camera setup that offers bokeh-licious portrait shots and a front 8MP f/2.0 selfie camera with AI beautification feature. The rear also gets a fingerprint sensor which claims to unlock in a mere 0.08 seconds.

Powering the A5s is a large 4,230mAh battery that charges via microUSB. Out of the box, it runs on ColorOS 5.2.1 that’s based on Android 8.1 Oreo. In Malaysia, the Oppo A5s is officially priced at RM599 and it comes in either Black or Red.
