The OPPO A18 is now available in Kenya starting from Ksh 19,500. You can get the phone through a number of smartphone retailers such as Jumia among others. This is one of the entry level smartphones from OPPO to launch in Kenya this year. This is also one of the few smartphones we have seen launch under 20K in Kenya in 2023.
The OPPO A18 is a direct competitor to some other good devices. These include the Infinix Hot 30 Play, Tecno Spark 10, Redmi 12C, Samsung Galaxy A04 just to name a few. These are some of the best smartphones under 20,000 that we have seen launch in Kenya this year and OPPO wants a share of that with the A18.
The OPPO A18 comes with some decent specs including the MediaTek Helio G85 processor, 8MP main sensor and a massive 5,000 mAh battery. These are not unique specs but they are still good for a phone within this price range. The processor has been around for a while but it is still a reliable one even in 2023. These are the specs you expect on a smartphone within its price range.
