The highlight of the Oppo A78 4G is the battery and the supported charging speed. The device houses a 5000mAh battery with 67W SuperVOOC fast charging. The phone features a 6.43-inch AMOLED display, Snapdragon 680 processor, and 50-megapixel primary camera.
FollowOppo has launched a 4G version of the Oppo A78 in India, nearly eight months after launching the Oppo A78 5G. Though there are a few small changes, the new version shares a similar appearance with its sister.

The display is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 5 to prevent scratches. The phone runs on Android 13 with ColorOS 13.1 out of the box. Under the hood, the OPPO A78 4G is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 680 processor and Adreno 610 GPU. It comes with 8GB LPDDR4X RAM and up to 8GB of virtual RAM, along with 128GB UFS 2.2 storage, expandable up to 1TB with microSD.
For photography, the phone features a 50-megapixel primary camera and a 2-megapixel portrait camera. On the front, there's an 8-megapixel camera for selfies. The OPPO A78 4G comes with stereo speakers and an in-display fingerprint sensor. It supports Dual 4G VoLTE, Wi-Fi 802.11 ac (2.4GHz + 5GHz), Bluetooth 5.0, GPS, and USB Type-C connectivity.
