OPPO and MTN partner to bring new smartphones to South Africa

OPPO has partnered with MTN to give the mobile network’s customers the opportunity to buy a variety of OPPO smartphones – including the new OPPO A15 and A53s.

The smartphone maker arrived in South Africa in September 2020 and has already become one of the top five smartphone brands to own in certain segments. It is because of great smartphones like the A15 and A53s that the company has achieved this, explains Head of GTM Operations at OPPO South Africa Liam Faurie.

“OPPO is dedicated to offering technology that does more, but costs less,” said Faurie. It’s about creating a platform that encourages users to explore, experience and experiment with the power of our handheld devices, without breaking the bank.

Executive of Sales and Distribution at MTN South Africa Nico Jacobs said MTN is happy to be selling OPPO’s smartphones.

Having OPPO’s high-end and superbly crafted handsets available at MTN stores offers our customers a wider selection of affordable devices that do not trade-off features for price,” said Jacobs.

It is available on a My MTNChoice Flex R60 contract for just R179 per month. The OPPO A53s brings premium features to the mid-range smartphone market, including a 90Hz HD+ display with a 120Hz touch sampling rate for optimal display performance.
