The two cameras also work in tandem with OPPO advanced portrait algorithm to provide impressive bokeh light spots in the background and highlight the subject in Portrait Mode. With the 5MP front camera, the OPPO A38 delivers stunning selfies and enhanced video call quality. With the Portrait Retouching features, users have options to adjust the level of beautification to achieve subtle and natural effects on both the front and rear cameras.
The OPPO A38 stays true to OPPO iconic design aesthetic and captivates with its vibrant colours and exquisite textures. The OPPO A38 comes in two stylish colours, Glowing Gold and Glowing Black. Both models employ OPPO exclusive OPPO Glow design technique, which gives the back cover of the phone a subtle shimmering appearance, creating a fingerprints-resistant, dual matte finish with glittery details. The lineup also inherits the same iconic Ultra-Slim Retro Design as previous models in the OPPO A series. With 2D Premium Design, the device is comfortable to hold and has a sleek and lightweight appearance, measuring only about 8.16mm in thickness and weighing only about 190g. In addition, the OPPO A38 features a Side Fingerprint Unlock functionality, allowing for swift and seamless unlocking even when the device is held with one hand.
The OPPO A38 comes with a 4GB RAM+128GB ROM configuration, and RAM Expansion technology, allowing it to convert free ROM space into up to 4GB of RAM to keep the phone running smoothly during heavy-load scenarios. The OPPO A38 introduces the Ultra Volume Mode, a software feature that helps amplify the speaker volume by 300%. This ensures easy phone calls and watching short videos, even in bustling or noisy environments.
Designed with durability in mind, the OPPO A38 has an IP54 dustproof and waterproof rating, with IPX4 Water Resistance, offering protection against water splashes or humid environments. To ensure the utmost quality and reliability, the OPPO A38 has passed six major tests, including physical drops, water, radiation, climate damage, repeated small drops, and signal stability tests.
