The Oppo Find X5 Pro phone made its global debut before making its Chinese debut. There are several improvements across the board when compared to the previous generation, the Find X3 Pro, including a better build, battery technology, and camera technology.
Let’s see what Oppo’s latest flagship phone has to offer.
Design and Display
The Chinese phone features a 6.7-inch AMOLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate and a 2K resolution on the front. The power efficiency is due to LTPO technology, which can reduce the refresh rate to 1Hz when necessary.
Because the touch sampling rate can reach 1000Hz, the display is faster than most gaming phones on the market.
It also covers the entire DCI P3 color gamut for exceptional color accuracy. With 8,192 brightness levels, the maximum brightness is 1300 nits. The front panel is made of Gorilla Glass Victus, and the back panel is made of ceramic.
Oppo has also included IP68 water/dust resistance. The ceramic back panel adds weight to the phone (218g), but it also improves heat conductivity.
Internals and Storage
The Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 is a beast of a chipset, but it is prone to overheating. The ceramic back panel, as well as the large cooling chamber, should help here.
The main chipset is paired with up to 12GB LPDDR5 RAM and 256GB UFS 3.1 storage, but there is no microSD card slot, as is common in flagships nowadays.
ColorOS 12.1 is based on Android 12 and improves aesthetics, privacy, and security.
Cameras
The primary camera system consists of two 50MP sensors (wide and ultrawide) and a 13MP telephoto unit. The 13MP coom camera has the same 5x hybrid zoom and 2x optical magnification as the previous generation.
The two 50MP cameras are built around the Sony IMX766 sensor (1/1.56″, 1.0 m) and feature improved processing algorithms and hardware support. The 6nm MariSilicon X chip, which is an NPU with a lot more AI prowess, accounts for a lot of the improvements.
It allows for improved AI noise reduction and 4K Ultra Night Video with less noise and better colours than standard night mode video.
All cameras have both Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) and Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS), which allows for super steady images and videos.
The Sony IMX709 sensor in the 32MP selfie camera can capture 60% more light than before, resulting in better image quality. It is a wide-angle lens with a field of view of up to 90 degrees.
Battery and Pricing
The 5,000 mAh capacity is a slight improvement over last year’s (4,500 mAh), but the real improvement is the new Battery Health Engine. When compared to a standard battery, it has doubled the cell’s longevity. Fast charging has also been improved to 80W wired and 50W wireless.
The Oppo Find X5 Pro will be available in Europe on March 14 for €1,300 in Ceramic White and Glaze Black color options.
