2-minute Review [Positives] |
- Slick, beautiful, eye-catching gradient finish on the back (though the back is laminated plastic and not glass)
- Fairly slim and light for a phone with such a large display
- Oppo F15's in-display fingerprint sensor and face unlock work very well - face unlock even works well in dimly lit places
- Very good 6.4-inch full-HD+ AMOLED display with a dewdrop notch and Gorilla Glass 5 protection - the colours are good, so is the sharpness - videos look sharp, with punchy colours, and the viewing angles are quite wide
- Display gets adequately bright and is legible even under sunlight
- You can watch Netflix and Prime in crisp HD resolution as Oppo F15 comes with Widevine L1 support
- ColorOS is fairly streamlined, and packs fast animations that help the phone feel snappy - there are of course several add-on features too, compared to what you would get in stock Android
- Decent performance with the MediaTek Helio P70 SoC (similar to Snapdragon 660) - day-to-day operations are smooth and you can even play games like PUBG Mobile on 'Medium' graphics setting
- Thermal performance is good too - the phone doesn't overheat when using the cameras extensively or even playing games
- Good quad-camera setup at the rear - 48MP primary + 8MP wide-angle + 2MP depth sensor + 2MP monochrome sensor
- The primary camera shoots oversampled 12-megapixel stills - in daylight, it captures fairly detailed landscape shots, colours are vivid, detail is good, and there's little to no noise in darker areas
- The wide-angle camera has autofocus, so stills taken have good detail, close-ups are sharp and detailed too - and if you get really close to your subject with the wide-angle camera, you'll be able to get good macro shots
- Portrait mode works decently well with human subjects and you can adjust the level of blur before taking the shot - edge detection is decent and image quality is good, when shooting under good light
- 16-megapixel selfie camera manages some pretty good-looking stills in daylight - skin textures are smoothen a bit but HDR works well and colours are well represented - with good amounts of artificial light around, it manages to get pleasing enough selfies even at night
- Video quality is decent and there is stabilisation when shooting using the primary camera
- The mono speaker gets fairly loud
- Battery life is pretty solid, backed by the 4000 mAh cell - will easily last a day and half with moderate use
- The Oppo F15 charges pretty quickly too with the supplied 20W Charger, about 88 percent in an hour
- Overall, Oppo F15 is a decent smartphone - it looks good, and it impresses particularly with its slimness, light weight, and good display
|
- Looks slick, and reflects off the same iridescent rainbow-like effects at the back as the Samsung Galaxy A50 when caught against light, only this one, comes with a prism-like pattern that Samsung calls a “3D prism design” - it's a head-turner no doubt
- And while the Samsung Galaxy A50s bears a polycarbonate body, it doesn’t look cheap and sports a very premium “glassy” look overall
- On the front is a sharp, modern panel with slim-bezels, and a U-shaped notch design (similar to Galaxy A50)
- Facial recognition to unlock your phone works well
- Beautiful 6.4-inch Full HD+ Infinity-U Super AMOLED display with a high 91.6% screen-to-body ratio, and Corning Gorilla Glass 3 for protection
- The screen looks sharp and bright, and being an AMOLED display, you will get deep black and vivid colors - sunlight legibility is also pretty good
- Samsung's One UI is now one of the better, more clean and streamlined Android UIs around, and is well optimised for modern large displays (like this one)
- Samsung has also added a Game Booster tool to the A50s to offer a better gaming experience
- Other features include an intuitive gesture-based navigation system, and an option to wake up Bixby using the power button
- Solid mid-range performance with the robust Samsung Exynos 9611 SoC (similar to Snapdragon 660 and Exynos 9610) - the experience is pleasant and smooth throughout including with games like PUBG Mobile and Asphalt 9
- Good thermal management too - the phone doesn't warm up quickly despite extended game play
- Decent set of triple rear cameras for the price bracket - a 48MP primary camera with an f/2.0 aperture
- a second 5MP depth camera with f/2.2 aperture, and a third 8MP ultra-wide lens
- The quality of the pictures from the primary camera is quite good during daylight and outdoors - the A50s handles high-contrast scenes well and adds the right amount of detail and vibrance
- Night mode works reasonably ok for low-light situations and doesn’t add unnatural exposure to the scene
- Portrait mode ("Live focus") works well too especially when capturing outdoor daylight scenes
- Decent video recording performance with a dedicated 'super steady' mode which allows you to shoot decent “action” videos
- Decent 32MP selfie camera - in daylight outdoor lighting, selfies clicked turn out quite clear (not so much is low-light though)
- Overall, this is a fairly good camera setup for this price bracket (though not quite up to the level of the category leaders)
- Very good battery life with a 4000mAh battery - you will get about 1.5 days of use

2-minute Review [Negatives] |
- Oppo F15 is a tall phone - it's not the easiest phone to fit into a pocket
- There is, as usual, some bloatware that comes pre-installed (but most of it can be uninstalled)
- While the chip offers decent performance, this chip is typically expected in phones closer to the Rs. 10, 000 mark (such as the Realme 3) - the Oppo F15 feels underpowered, considering that the Realme X2 and Redmi K20 offer Qualcomm's superior Snapdragon 730 series SoCs at the same price
- Selfie portrait mode doesn't work too well, unfortunately, whether it's day or night
- There are few caveats here, like there's no option to shoot at the full 48-megapixel resolution - other features such as super-steady video and the ability to use Night mode for the selfie camera are also absent
- In low light, image quality from both primary & wide-angle camera is average, details are weaker and there is visible noise in the darker regions - the ‘Night' mode helps brighten up scenes but the details don't improve much
- No 4K video recording, which most of its competitors support
- In low-light, video quality is noticeably worse with poor details and a persistent shimmer in the footage even with slight movement
- Overall, camera performance could have been better, as two of its main competitors, the Realme X2 & the Redmi K20 offer better image quality
- However, at this price, you're better off with either the Realme X2 or the Redmi K20 - both of which offer much better performance, even more premium build quality, and even more modern designs
|
- The fingerprint sensor that sits beneath the display, is a tad bit slow
- The phone is a smudge-magnet, relatively easy to scratch, and also slippery (so you will want to use a case)
- This is however not the best performing phone in this price bracket - you will get better CPUs and stronger performance from Xiaomi and Realme phones
- The camera app is a little bit slow to launch and there is a small shutter lag when capturing photos
- As is right now the case with most mid-range phones, the wide-angle camera’s photos look fairly distorted, and details are soft
- Low light performance could have been better, across the board
- Volume levels of the speaker are a bit on the low side and could have been better - it's a little difficult to hear audio outdoors in a noisy environment
- Although the phone supports 15W fast charging, but it only includes a 10W standard (non fast) charger - it takes over 3 hours for A50s to go from 0% to 100%
- On the whole, the A50s, while a pretty decent phone by itself, will find the competition much more intense (than what its predecessor A50 faced) - unless you are a Samsung loyalist, you will want to look at the competition especially from the likes of Realme and Xiaomi
