Why OPPO A5 Performance Become Slow and Not Responsive ?
When we make this information, OPPO A5 has two version that release at 2018 and at 2020. All version use Qualcomm processor but with different version. 2018 version use Qualcomm SDM450 Snapdragon 450 while 2020 version use Qualcomm SDM665 Snapdragon 665 with better performance. However, this processor has limited performance when running some applications.
Moreover, if many apps run together, then this phone will run more slower performance. Beside processor, RAM size also very important for multitasking performance. The smallest RAM of this phone is 3 GB, it is not too big for many multitasking applications.
Every running applications will consume some RAM to make multitasking experience work better. If we open too many applications together, then RAM will be insufficient, and this phone will try to look for idle applications for force close to give more RAM resources. When this process happen, OPPO A5 will freezing for a while.
Therefore we suggest to uninstall some not use applications if we do not really use that apps. Some of them will run in the background to wait data update and consume more RAM. Remove some applications will help this phone to run more faster.
