Oppo A56 Price in Pakistan & Full Specs
Oppo A56 — Full Specifications, Features & Price in Pakistan
The Oppo A56 5G is a China-market phone from late 2021 built around the MediaTek Dimensity 700 — a genuinely capable 5G chip — with a 5,000mAh battery and a simple 13MP dual camera. It was never officially launched in Pakistan, which makes its pricing and PTA situation worth understanding before you buy. This guide covers the verified specs and what to check.

Design and Build Quality
The A56 5G is a clean, understated phone with a rectangular camera island, a side-mounted fingerprint scanner built into the power button, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. At 189.5g it is reasonably light for a 5,000mAh phone, and the Gorilla Glass 3 front adds everyday durability.
Display Features
The 6.5-inch IPS LCD panel runs at 720 x 1600 (HD+, ~270ppi) with a 60Hz refresh rate and a waterdrop notch. It is a basic but honest display — fine for video and social apps, but this is clearly where Oppo saved money versus rivals with 90Hz or AMOLED screens. Peak brightness is around 480 nits, so outdoor visibility is average.
Processor and Performance
The Dimensity 700 (7nm) is the A56's strongest asset: an octa-core 5G chip (2x Cortex-A76 + 6x Cortex-A55) that handles everyday apps smoothly and even manages light gaming at modest settings. It is far more capable than the 4G-only chips in most phones near this price. Multitasking is comfortable on the 6GB RAM version; the 4GB version is adequate for normal use.
RAM and Storage
The phone launched in China as 6GB + 128GB; the store listing also mentions a 4GB RAM option. Storage is 128GB of UFS 2.1 — noticeably faster than the eMMC storage in cheaper phones — and a microSDXC slot allows expansion. Confirm which RAM variant the store is offering, since it affects both price and smoothness.
Camera Features
The rear setup is deliberately simple: a 13MP main camera (f/2.2, PDAF) plus a 2MP depth sensor for portrait shots — Oppo dropped the macro camera found on the A55 5G. The 8MP front camera (f/2.0) handles selfies and video calls. Expect decent daylight photos and 1080p video; this is a basic camera system, not a photography phone.
Battery and Charging
The 5,000mAh battery paired with an efficient 7nm chip delivers genuinely strong endurance — two days of light use is realistic. The weak point is charging: only 10W, which is slow for a 2021 phone and means a full refill takes well over two hours. No wireless charging.
Software and Updates
Ships with Android 11 under ColorOS 11.1. As a China-market 2021 model, its update history is limited — check the actual software version and installed apps on the unit, and confirm Google services are present and working if you rely on them.
Connectivity and Additional Features
Dual Nano-SIM with 5G (bands 1/28/41/77/78 — China-oriented bands), Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.1, GPS, USB Type-C, OTG and a 3.5mm jack. Side-mounted fingerprint sensor plus face unlock. No NFC, no FM radio.
Variants, Colours and Availability
Sold in Black, Blue and Violet (Soft Fog Black, Cloud Smoke Blue, Wind Chime Purple). The A56 5G was officially announced for China only in October 2021 at CNY 1,599 (~$250) — it never got an official Pakistan launch, which is why WhatMobile Pakistan still shows it as 'Coming Soon'. Units in Pakistan are imported stock, so PTA status must be verified per device.
Price in Pakistan and PTA Information
The Zohaan Mobile Gallery catalog lists the Oppo A56 at Rs. 62,000 (brand new, box packed). Note the large gap: WhatMobile Pakistan shows an expected price of Rs. 45,999 but the model was never officially launched here, and the China launch price was CNY 1,599. Pricing for imported units moves with the market — confirm the latest price with Zohaan Mobile Gallery before buying.
PTA: PTA approval applies per device and IMEI, not per model. Before paying, send the phone's IMEI to 8484 and confirm "Compliant" status. How to check PTA approval.
Because this model was not officially launched in Pakistan, checking the IMEI on 8484 is especially important — do not assume a grey-import unit is PTA compliant.
Main Advantages and Limitations
Advantages:
- Dimensity 700 — a genuinely capable 5G chip, rare at this price
- 5,000mAh battery with excellent endurance
- 128GB UFS 2.1 storage with microSD expansion
- Side fingerprint sensor, USB-C and headphone jack
Limitations:
- Never officially launched in Pakistan — imported units, verify PTA carefully
- Only 10W charging — very slow for a 5,000mAh battery
- Basic 60Hz HD+ LCD display
- Modest 13MP + 2MP camera system
Who Should Consider This Phone?
Good fit: buyers who want a capable 5G-ready chip, big battery and 128GB storage without paying flagship money, and who are comfortable buying an imported unit after verifying PTA status in person.
Look elsewhere if: you need fast charging, a high-refresh display, or an officially Pakistan-launched phone with local warranty. Compare alternatives in the Oppo collection or all mobiles.

Final Verdict
