Pros

  • Fast
  • Looks good
  • Good low-light camera
  • Free case

Cons

  • Minor video issues

Bottom Line

Oppo has once again redefined the low-end phone by offering a good mid-range model at a very-affordable price.

Would you buy this?

  • Price

    $ 448.00 (AUD)

Battery Life

A decent 3,200mAh battery is included and we found it easily lasted the full day, even with significant photography and navigation.

Conclusion

It’s quite a crowded market at this level and, at $448, the A77 is a similar price to the dual-camera Huawei GR5 and a bit more expensive than the good all-rounder, Moto G5.

Where this phone wins is for build quality, styling and handling – it doesn’t look or feel like a lower mid-range phone. Not so long ago we’d expect this level of performance in units that cost twice as much. As such it’s a great-value choice, whatever your budget.
