      Display and Design

      The Oppo A18 has a pretty generic design with a plastic build. The phone is available in two colour options: Glowing Black and Glowing Blue. It comes with a side-mounted fingerprint sensor for security. Furthermore, it boasts an IP54 water and dust resistance while weighing about 188 grams.
       
      On the front, it boasts a 6.56-inch HD+ LCD panel that operates at a smooth 90Hz refresh and touch sampling rate. The Oppo A18 has a somewhat noticeable amount of bezels. The display has a resolution of 1,612 x 720 pixels and a peak brightness of 720 nits. Furthermore, it has a centrally aligned waterdrop camera cutout.

      Performance

      In terms of performance, the Oppo A18 gets the MediaTek Helio G85 chipset. It is an octa-core processor built on a 12nm process, with a maximum frequency of 2.0 GHz. It is paired with 4GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage, offering ample space for apps, files, and media.
       
      The phone also includes an additional 4GB of virtual RAM support to enhance multitasking capabilities. Furthermore, it also offers an option to expand your storage to 1 TB via a MicroSD card. Finally, on the software front, it comes with ColorOS 13.1 on top of Android 13.
