The Oppo A57 is a newly launched selfie-oriented smartphone targeted at value-conscious buyers. It sits in the sub-Rs.15,000 price segment and borrows many traits from its pricier sibling, the Oppo F1s ( Review ).

Oppo has been advertising their smartphones as selfie expert and the F1S and F1 Plus comes with really good selfie camera. Now, Oppo is looking to capitalize the selfie trend into the sub 15k segment and launched the Oppo A57.

Priced at Rs 14,999, the Oppo A57 is tough to recommend unless you are really focused on selfies. While the device fares well in performance and also comes with decent specs, it is not even close to what Redmi Note 4 or Honor 6X offers in terms of value for money.

Once again, it offers features that we’d expect in a much more expensive phone and yet it’s one of the cheapest modern smartphones we’ve ever reviewed. Does it make the G5 Plus look expensive? Let’s find out.

This is a great mid-range phone and yet it's one of the cheapest we've ever tested.

* Good display; * Dedicated microSD card slot; * Great battery life; * Fast fingerprint scanner

* ColorOS (Is a Nougat update coming?

At $328 this is definitely a budget model, but it feels pretty solid in the hand. For years I've struggled with trying to tell the difference between plastic and metal. These days plastics can look so similar you'd have to start scratching to be certain, and vendors tend not to like it when you do...

Excellent value for money; looks far more expensive than it is; good screen; expandable storage

Extra swipe required to get at notifications; Silly OTG implementation; Probably not sufficient power for the latest games

The Oppo A57 is a no-nonsense smartphone that trades in some higher-tier processing power for price, while still delivering a solid functional experience, a pretty good pair of cameras and a stylish design.
