OPPO A9 2020 Accessories Guide: Screen Protectors Compared
MEZONShare
Using an OPPO A9 2020 and deciding how to protect the display? This guide follows the same practical approach as our other OPPO accessory guides: first confirm the exact model, then look at what makes the phone distinctive, compare every screen protector currently listed by MEZON, and choose the finish and coverage style that best suits the way you use the phone.
1. Make sure you have the right OPPO A9 2020
Before ordering, check the phone name in Settings > About phone. Nearby OPPO models can use different front-camera positions, bezels or overall dimensions. Use a protector specifically listed for the OPPO A9 2020.
2. OPPO A9 2020 at a glance
The OPPO A9 2020 was built as an entertainment-first A-series phone. Its huge 5,000mAh battery could even reverse-charge other devices, while dual stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos, a 6.5-inch display and a 48MP quad-camera system made it unusually feature-rich for the A-series.
| Display | 6.5-inch HD+ display with Gorilla Glass 3+ |
| Processor | Qualcomm Snapdragon 665 |
| Memory & storage | Configuration varies by market; 128GB storage common |
| Battery | 5,000mAh with reverse charging support |
| Rear camera | 48MP main + 8MP ultra-wide + 2MP mono + 2MP portrait/depth |
| Audio | Dual stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos |
What is especially interesting about this phone?
- Reverse charging allows the A9 2020 to act like an emergency power bank for another compatible device.
- Dual stereo speakers and Dolby Atmos were unusual features at its price point.
- OPPO's 'Sunlight Screen' technology was intended to improve visibility in bright outdoor conditions.
- Game Boost 2.0 targeted smoother touch and frame-rate behaviour for gaming.
3. Why screen protection makes sense on the OPPO A9 2020
The display is one of the largest exposed surfaces on any smartphone. Pocket grit, keys, bags, desk contact and accidental knocks can leave marks even when the phone itself continues working perfectly. A model-specific protector creates a replaceable layer over the front glass.
The current MEZON collection contains 4 screen-protection options. The choices below reflect the live collection so you can compare the actual finishes and coverage styles available for this phone.
4. Current MEZON screen protectors for OPPO A9 2020
4.1. Ultra Clear TPU Film
[3 Pack] MEZON OPPO A9 2020 Ultra Clear TPU Film
A thin, transparent TPU film designed mainly for everyday scratch, scraping and abrasion protection. It keeps the screen looking close to its original glossy appearance and adds very little bulk.
Who it suits: Best for maximum display clarity, minimum thickness and a smooth touch feel.
Trade-off: TPU film is mainly designed for scratches and surface wear. Its advantage is thinness and flexibility rather than the rigid impact resistance of tempered glass.
4.2. Anti-Glare Matte TPU Film
[3 Pack] MEZON OPPO A9 2020 Anti-Glare Matte TPU Film
A lightly textured TPU film that helps reduce reflections, glare, fingerprints and smudges. The matte surface deliberately diffuses light, so it trades a little glossy crispness for a calmer screen finish.
Who it suits: Best for bright environments, reading and users who dislike visible fingerprints.
Trade-off: the anti-glare surface works by diffusing reflected light, so the screen can look slightly softer than it does through glossy Ultra Clear film.
4.3. Case-Friendly 9H Tempered Glass
[2 Pack] MEZON OPPO A9 2020 Case-Friendly 9H Tempered Glass
Hard 9H tempered glass designed for stronger scratch and front-impact protection. Its perimeter is intentionally a little smaller so many phone cases have clearance around the protector edges.
Who it suits: Best for harder front protection while retaining good compatibility with a phone case.
Why it does not reach every edge: the small perimeter gap is intentional. It gives many phone cases room to wrap around the display without pushing underneath and lifting the glass.
4.4. Full-Cover 9H Tempered Glass
[2 Pack] MEZON OPPO A9 2020 Full-Cover 9H Tempered Glass
A fuller-coverage tempered-glass design that extends further towards the front edges for a more edge-to-edge appearance while retaining a hard 9H protective surface.
Who it suits: Best for users who prefer broader glass coverage and a more edge-to-edge front appearance.
Case fit: full-cover glass extends closer to the front edges. If you use a very tight case with a high front lip, check that the case does not press against the glass border.
5. Which OPPO A9 2020 screen protector should you choose?
There is no single finish that is best for everyone. Flexible film prioritises thinness, Matte prioritises glare control, Hydrogel provides fuller flexible coverage, and tempered glass gives you a harder front surface.
| Option | Protection focus | Finish | Fit / coverage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra Clear TPU Film | Scratch / abrasion | Glossy transparent film | Thin and case-friendly |
| Anti-Glare Matte TPU Film | Scratch / abrasion | Matte anti-glare film | Thin and case-friendly |
| Case-Friendly 9H Tempered Glass | Harder scratch / impact | Clear 9H glass | Extra perimeter case clearance |
| Full-Cover 9H Tempered Glass | Harder scratch / impact | Full-cover 9H glass | Broader front coverage |
6. Recommended setups
- Best for maximum clarity: Ultra Clear film keeps the screen closest to its original glossy look while adding minimal thickness.
- Best for glare and fingerprints: Matte film is the better choice for bright rooms, outdoor use and a less reflective surface.
- Best with a protective phone case: case-friendly tempered glass gives a harder surface while leaving more edge clearance.
- Best for broader glass coverage: full-cover tempered glass suits users who prefer a more edge-to-edge glass appearance.
7. Installation tips and common mistakes to avoid
7.1. Before installation
- Wash and dry your hands and work on a clean table away from fans, open windows and dust.
- Turn the display off so fingerprints, lint and alignment are easier to see.
- Clean the entire screen carefully and remove the final dust particles before exposing adhesive.
- Do a dry alignment first and check the front camera, earpiece and edge position.
7.2. Flexible film and Hydrogel
- Apply progressively rather than placing the whole protector onto the display at once.
- Push air gently towards the nearest edge and avoid using sharp tools.
- Remember that film is intended primarily for surface wear; it will not feel as rigid as tempered glass.
7.3. Tempered glass
- Once alignment is correct, lower the glass gently and let the adhesive spread naturally.
- Do not mistake the visible edge gap on case-friendly glass for incorrect sizing — that clearance is intentional.
- After installing full-cover glass, fit your phone case carefully and make sure its front lip does not push underneath the protector border.

9. FAQ: OPPO A9 2020 screen protectors
Is tempered glass better than film?
Tempered glass is usually the stronger option if hardness and front-impact protection are your priorities. TPU and Hydrogel films are thinner and more flexible and are better when minimum bulk, a matte finish or fuller flexible coverage matters more.
What is the difference between case-friendly and full-cover tempered glass?
Case-friendly glass leaves more clearance around the perimeter so many cases are less likely to catch and lift it. Full-cover glass extends further towards the edges for broader visual coverage.
Does Matte film reduce screen clarity?
Matte film deliberately diffuses light to reduce reflections and make fingerprints less visible. The trade-off is that the display can look slightly softer than it does through glossy Ultra Clear film.
What is Hydrogel?
Hydrogel is a soft, flexible screen-protector material. It can provide fuller flexible coverage than rigid glass and is useful for scratches and surface wear, but it should not be treated as equivalent to tempered glass for direct impact resistance.
Can I use a protector made for a similar OPPO model?
No. Use a protector specifically listed for the OPPO A9 2020. Even phones with very similar names can differ in screen dimensions, front-camera cut-outs and bezel shape.
When should I replace a protector?
Replace film when it becomes heavily scratched, cloudy or starts lifting. Replace tempered glass if it cracks, chips or has absorbed a significant impact.
