Oppo appears to be gearing up for the release of its latest 5G smartphone in the UAE, with recent developments hinting at a strategic rebranding approach. The Oppo A3 5G, which was introduced in India and other global markets as part of the Oppo A3 5G/4G series (including the A3 and A3x models), is likely to make its entry into the UAE market under a different moniker. This move aligns with a broader trend among smartphone manufacturers to rebrand their devices for different regions.
The potential rebranding was uncovered through a recent listing on the UAE’s Telecommunications and Digital Government Regulatory Authority (TDRA) certification database.
The certification shows that the Oppo A3 5G is expected to be rebranded as the Oppo A60 5G for the UAE market. The listing specifically identifies the device by the model number CPH2683—a number that directly corresponds to the one used for the Oppo A3 5G.
This revelation underscores Oppo’s ongoing strategy of tailoring its product lineup to meet regional demands, much like what other manufacturers, such as Vivo, have been doing. Rebranding is a common practice that allows companies to align their product offerings with the preferences and expectations of different markets, often adjusting the name, design, or even features to better appeal to local consumers.
The TDRA listing, while not providing detailed specifications, strongly suggests that the Oppo A60 5G will essentially be a rebranded version of the A3 5G, with the core features and hardware likely remaining unchanged. This means that the UAE market can expect a device similar in performance and capabilities to the A3 5G, albeit under a new name.
Oppo has already launched the A60 4G variant in several global markets, which adds to the anticipation surrounding the official release of the Oppo A60 5G in the UAE. Consumers and tech enthusiasts alike are now eagerly awaiting an official announcement to confirm these details and provide more insight into the device’s availability and pricing in the UAE. With the model number and certification in place, it seems only a matter of time before the Oppo A60 5G makes its official debut, bringing the latest in 5G technology to the region.
