OPPO A98 5G (Black 01) Case Review: Luxury and Protection
Table of Contents
Introduction
The OPPO A98 5G is a sleek smartphone, and protecting it is paramount. This review focuses on a particular case: the OPPO A98 5G (Black 01) Luxury Plating Soft Back Cover. I’ve been using this case for several weeks, putting it through the rigors of daily life, to bring you a thorough and honest assessment.
Features & Design
The case immediately impresses with its sleek design. The electroplating frame gives it a premium feel, far surpassing the typical plastic case. The “Black 01” color is understated yet elegant. The TPU material is soft to the touch, providing a comfortable grip. It’s surprisingly lightweight, adding minimal bulk to the phone. All the cutouts are precisely aligned, allowing easy access to all ports and buttons. The raised edges around the camera provide excellent protection against scratches.
The description boasts a breathable and dustproof material, and I can confirm this is largely true. Dust doesn’t seem to cling to the surface as readily as with some other cases I’ve used. Wiping it clean is quick and easy.

Performance & Protection
In terms of protection, this case has performed admirably. It’s survived several accidental drops onto hard surfaces with no damage to the phone itself. The raised edges around the screen and camera are particularly helpful in preventing scratches. The TPU material feels durable, showing minimal wear and tear after weeks of use. The fit is snug, ensuring the phone doesn’t slip out easily.
One minor area of concern is the potential for the case to attract fingerprints, though this is a common issue with many phone cases. Regular cleaning keeps this to a minimum.
Pros & Cons
- Pros: Stylish design, comfortable grip, excellent protection, precise cutouts, lightweight, easy to clean.
- Cons: Prone to fingerprints (though easily wiped clean).
Final Verdict
Overall, the OPPO A98 5G (Black 01) Luxury Plating Soft Back Cover is a fantastic case. The combination of stylish design, robust protection, and comfortable feel makes it a worthwhile purchase. While the fingerprint issue is a minor drawback, it’s easily managed. I would wholeheartedly recommend this case to anyone looking for a balance of style, protection, and practicality for their OPPO A98 5G.
