    Oppo A1K superphone, budget Android smartphone

    OPPO A1K is the latest budget smartphone that was launched in Russia. This latest Android smartphone is the perfect power-packed smartphone that those on a tight budget will find appealing, while still getting a long-lasting battery that promises up to 17 hours of active usage on a single charge.

    OPPO A1K was unveiled same day Oppo A5s was introduced in India. Although this post is not about the A5s, but both Android smartphones are budget-friendly, packed with massive battery capacity. Probably we will review the Oppo A5s in our next review.

    As far as the camera is concerned, the Android superphone features a single rear 8MP on the back with an f/2.2 lens. The front hosts a 5MP selfie camera with an f/2.0 lens for good selfie shots. The cameras are quite decent for a budget smartphone.
