Blacklist International's OhMyV33nus and Wise, collectively known as VeeWise, reveal what makes the OPPO A98 5G an ideal smartphone for Filipino’s every smartphone needs.

OPPO has consistently launched smartphones that suit and address a user’s demand. Whether you’re a young professional who lives an active lifestyle, a student who requires a phone’s assistance for everyday requirements, or maybe an avid TV/movie buff who binge watches for hours on the phone, an all-rounder smartphone that achieves more is a must-have.

The OPPO A98 5G is a suitable smartphone candidate because it has versatile features every user needs and wants. Blacklist International and OPPO Fam members VeeWise shared that the OPPO A98 5G impressed them with how it blends reliability and multifunctional performance in one device.

A Powerful Processor for Seamless Gameplay

A reliable, quality processor allows a smartphone to deliver a solid, all-around performance for everyday use. It ensures that the device is capable of smooth multitasking and worry-free gaming sessions.

The OPPO A98 5G is equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 5G chipset that ensures exceptional performance and power efficiency, meaning even the most demanding games run smoothly without lag or hiccups. “Personally, happy ako to have this OPPO A98 5G because I need a smartphone that has good performance and walang lag lalo na when I am playing mobile games. Buti malakas yung chipset niya so sure and mataas yung ROM so sure na no lags.,” shares OhMyV33nus. “Everytime we have training or practice, this is the phone we use kasi less yung lag and long battery life kaya uninterrupted yung bawat run lalo pag in-game kami,” Wise adds.

Immersive Display that Brings Games and Visuals to Life

The display enhances the overall smartphone experience because it adds next-level excitement and intensity to the games and apps being used. Wise notes the significance of this feature for mobile gaming, “Kapag naglalaro na kami, nagiging kami yung heroes or avatar na pinipili namin, kaya okay yung visuals ng OPPO A98 5G kasi mas feel namin yung laro. Super clear ng screen at kitang-kita lahat ng visuals kaya nakaka gana mag laro”.

Get a total feel when listening to an adventure game's addicting soundtrack or a battle royale's intense sound effects, as the device's immersive audio puts you right in the middle of the action.

Long-lasting Battery for Uninterrupted Gaming Sessions

Nothing is more disappointing than stopping a game to charge your phone, especially when you’re really into it. “Lakas makasira ng momentum pag biglang mag notify yung low battery, lalo pag nasa gitna ka ng intense na laro.” Ohmyv33nus agrees. “Buti mahaba battery life ng OPPO A98, so madalang kami mainterrupt sa mga games. “Tapos hindi ka pa masaydong mabibitin pag na lowbatt kasi sobrang bilis lang niya mag charge.” Wise added.

Good thing that the OPPO A98 5G contains a massive 5000mAh battery that can power your gaming sessions for hours on end. And when you're ready to take a break, the 67W SUPERVOOC charging technology quickly replenishes your battery so you can get back to the game in no time.
