Oppo A3 price in Nigeria by storage
Only one storage tier has enough live supply in Nigeria to price honestly, and it is the one below. Anything a seller quotes you outside this capacity is a negotiation, not a market price.
| RAM / Storage | New range | New typical | Used range | Used typical | Offers checked |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6GB / 128GB | ₦235,000 to ₦252,000 | ₦244,000 | too few offers | not published | 5 new |
How many Oppo A3 units are actually for sale in Nigeria
We counted 12 active listings for the Oppo A3: 8 advertised as brand new and 4 as used. That puts the used share at 33%.
Supply is genuinely split between new and used, which is the best position a buyer can be in. You can price one against the other in the same afternoon, and sellers know it.

What else ₦244,000 buys you in the Oppo range
The useful question about any phone price is not whether it is fair, it is what the same money buys elsewhere. At ₦244,000 for a new Oppo A3 128GB, these are your live Oppo alternatives.
What other brands sell at ₦244,000
Almost nobody shopping at this budget in Nigeria is loyal to one brand, and almost no price page puts the options side by side. These models from other makers sit within a fifth of what this Oppo A3 costs today.
| Rival at this money | RAM | Display | Released | Condition | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 12T | 8GB | 6.67 in | 2022 | used 256GB | ₦245,000 |
| Samsung Galaxy S20 | 8GB | 6.2 in | 2020 | used 128GB | ₦240,000 |
| Tecno Camon 40 | 12GB | 6.78 in | 2025 | used 128GB | ₦235,000 |
The honest trade at this price: the Oppo A3 and the 12T are close enough on paper that the deciding factor is which seller will show you the phone working with your own SIM in it. Every price we track for that brand is on the Xiaomi and Redmi price hub.
Oppo A3 review: what you are actually buying in 2026
The Oppo A3 shipped in 2024 with a Dimensity 6300 chip, 6GB of RAM and a 6.67 inch display. At 2 years old it is still inside the update window and the battery is the main variable.
Watch that before you pay, not after. Most complaints we hear about a used phone purchase in Nigeria are things the buyer could have seen in a ten minute review.
There is no used Oppo A3 market yet, and what that means
We found 4 used Oppo A3 listings against 8 new, too thin to publish a range. That is normal for a phone this new: resale supply in Nigeria only builds once the first wave of buyers upgrades.
When it arrives, here is the arithmetic to expect. Across every Oppo model we track that has both prices, the used figure sits a median 24% below new retail. Applied to today’s 128GB price of ₦244,000, the first credible used Oppo A3 should land near ₦184,000. Treat that as a ceiling to negotiate under, not a price we have verified.
What to check before you pay
- 01Check whether it is refurbished. Oppo’s A series is one of the most heavily refurbished ranges sold in Nigeria. Look for mismatched screws, a replacement screen with a slightly different colour temperature at the edges, and a back cover that sits proud at one corner. Ask for the original box and match the IMEI on it.
- 02Oppo and Google account locks. Settings, then Users and accounts. Both the seller’s Google account and any HeyTap or Oppo account must be removed. A locked ColorOS device cannot be reset past the setup screen.
- 03ColorOS version and security patch. Settings, then About device, then Version. If the security patch is more than a year old, Oppo has stopped updating this model. That is not a reason to walk away on a cheap handset, but it should be reflected in the price.
- 04Check the network bands. Units imported for the Indian, Chinese or Middle Eastern market sometimes drop the bands MTN, Glo, Airtel and 9mobile actually use here. Dial *#*#4636#*#* and open phone information, or check the model code against Oppo’s own regional listing. A phone that only ever shows 3G in Lagos is usually a wrong-region unit.
- 05Battery and fast charging. Oppo’s selling point is SUPERVOOC charging, and it is also the first thing to degrade on a used unit. Bring your own compatible charger and confirm it actually pulls the advertised wattage rather than falling back to 10W.
- 06IMEI, last. Dial *#06# and check the number matches the box and the sticker under the SIM tray. A mismatch means replaced parts or a re-shelled handset. Our guide to spotting fake and parts-swapped phones covers the rest.

Is the Oppo A3 still worth buying in 2026?
Yes. At 2 years old it still takes security updates and the used discount has opened up enough to make it good value.
Oppo A3 or 12T: which is better value in Nigeria?
They cost almost the same here: the Oppo A3 typically goes for ₦244,000 new and the 12T for ₦245,000 used. The Oppo A3 gives you 6GB of RAM and a 6.67 inch display against 8GB and 6.67 inch. Compare the two on price per year of remaining software support, not on the spec sheet alone.
