OPPO A98 specifications leaked ahead of official launch

OPPO is preparing to introduce a new phone in its A-series called Oppo A98. After launching some A-series smartphones in India and China this year, the Chinse smartphone manufacturer is all set to unveil a new upper mid-range phone very soon. This will be the successor to the Oppo A97 that was launched earlier this year.

Tipster Digital Chat Station shared information on the display, camera, and battery of the OPPO A98. The phone is likely to be launched first in China, then in other countries. 

The OPPO A98 is still in its early stages of development. Meanwhile, a new leak suggests the phone will be powered by a Snapdragon SoC. 

In a Weibo post, tipster Digital Chat Station revealed the OPPO A98’s display will have curved edges. If this is the case, this will be OPPO’s first curved display phone under A-series. It will have a Full HD+ display with a hole-punch cutout and support for a 120Hz refresh rate on its front. 

Leaked details suggest the A98 will feature a 108MP main camera. As far as other camera sensors are concerned, the tipster did not reveal any information.

It is unknown what size the display will be, but the A98 is expected to have a high screen-to-body ratio and a fairly thin chin bezel. The phone will be powered by a Qualcomm SM7325 SoC, probably the Snapdragon 778G SoC. The phone will also be compatible with 5G networks.

There will be a 5000mAh battery inside the A98 5G, as well as 67W fast charging. The tipster did not provide information regarding the RAM and storage configurations. Nevertheless, we can expect at least 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. The phone might be launched in China with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage.
