Oppo launched the A3 Pro in China in April and a different phone with the same name in India last week. The company is now getting ready to make the non-Pro A3 official in China, and today it’s decided to tease the upcoming smartphone over on Weibo.
Oppo shared the images you can see below, which reveal a very similar design to that of the Chinese Oppo A3 Pro, but the A3 will have a flat screen not a curved one like that model.
The three colorways that will be offered are called Mountain Stream Green, Aurora Purple, and Quiet Sea Black, according to machine translation.

The Oppo A3 will be made official on July 2 at 14:30 local time in China. It will be 7.15mm thin and “ultra durable” with a slightly curved frame that’s supposed to enhance the in-hand feel.
While Oppo itself hasn’t revealed any specs (at least not yet), the A3 was recently found in China Telecom’s product library. So we know it will have a 6.7-inch 1080×2412 touchscreen, a 50 MP main camera and a 2 MP decorative sensor next to it, an 8 MP selfie snapper, and a 5,000 mAh battery. At the helm will be Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 or the Snapdragon 695 which are more or less identical even by Qualcomm’s own admission.
The A3 is expected to be offered in three RAM/storage combos: 8/256GB, 12/256GB, and 12/512GB. The phone should start at CNY 2,099 (approximately $288 at the current exchange rates).
