About Hardware OPPO A15s eMMC 5.1

OPPO A15s eMMC 5.1 is the eMMC (embedded MultiMediaCard) version 5.1-based internal storage chip used in the OPPO A15s smartphone. The eMMC 5.1 technology is a significant upgrade from the previous generation, delivering faster read/write speeds, better power efficiency, and improved performance in data input/output management. While not as fast as the more modern UFS (Universal Flash Storage) technology, eMMC 5.1 remains a reliable storage standard for entry-level to mid-range smartphones.

This storage is designed to provide a seamless user experience, from opening apps, saving files, recording videos, to managing Android system data. It also plays an important role in operating system stability, lightweight multitasking, and response time when the device starts up or switches between apps.

The tests were conducted on an OPPO A15s device with MediaTek Helio P35 (MT6765) specifications, 4GB RAM, and 64GB internal storage, running on Android 10 operating system with ColorOS 7.2 interface. The test was conducted when the device had been in use for approximately two years, so the performance results may be slightly affected by NAND Flash performance degradation over time (wear leveling).

In a benchmark using the Cross Platform Disk Test (Mobile), the eMMC 5.1 on the OPPO A15s recorded a read speed of 145.27 MB/s and a write speed of 50.09 MB/s. This indicates that the storage performance is still solid enough for daily needs such as opening social media, streaming videos, accessing galleries, and saving files from third-party applications.

Overall, the eMMC 5.1 on the OPPO A15s is a well-balanced internal storage solution between price, efficiency, and performance, perfect for users who need a smartphone with responsive capabilities while remaining power efficient. For casual users, this performance is more than enough to run most popular Android apps without a hitch.

Device test (testbed):

Device: OPPO A15s
CPU: MediaTek MT6765 Helio P35
RAM: 4GB
Storage: 64GB
OS: Android 10, ColorOS 7.2

* This hardware test was conducted after the device was approximately 2 years old, there may be some performance degradation.

About Hardware Western Digital PC SN740 512GB

The Western Digital PC SN740 is a high-performance NVMe SSD specifically designed to meet the needs of modern computing, especially in ultrabooks, business laptops and other compact devices. It features a PCIe Gen4 x4 interface and NVMe 1.4 protocol, which enables extremely fast read and write speeds, making it an ideal storage solution for intensive multitasking, big data processing, and a responsive and efficient computing experience.

The SN740 comes in various capacities ranging from 256GB, 512GB, 1TB, to 2TB, providing flexibility for users with different storage needs. Built with Western Digital 3D NAND technology, the SSD offers not only high performance, but also excellent power efficiency and long-term durability. Its availability in two form factors, M.2 2230 and M.2 2280, makes it highly compatible with many of the latest devices, including thin laptops and small industrial systems.

In a real-world test using an Acer Aspire 5 A515-58P laptop equipped with an Intel Core i5-1335U processor, 8GB LPDDR5 RAM and running Windows 11 operating system, the SSD ran on PCIe Gen3 x4 mode due to laptop slot limitations. Despite not running at full PCIe Gen4 speed, the benchmark results still showed excellent performance. Tests with CrystalDiskMark recorded read speeds of up to 3913.58 MB/s and write speeds of 3453.18 MB/s, while AS-SSD Benchmark recorded read speeds of 3795.33 MB/s and write speeds of 1879.37 MB/s. These numbers show that even on a PCIe Gen3 interface, the WD SN740 still offers premium performance that can compete with other high-end SSDs.

In addition to performance, the Western Digital SN740 also features enhanced security and power efficiency, making it a great choice for mobile professionals, software developers, and general users who desire fast and durable storage. With the combination of high data transfer speeds, compact design and Western Digital's brand reputation for reliability, this SSD is one of the best-in-class choices for storage upgrades on modern devices.
