Oppo has finally unveiled its Find X5 series globally via a virtual event. The lineup consists of three phones, and here we will be discussing the specs, features, availability, and expected price of the Oppo Find X5 and X5 Pro in Nepal. They are the first Oppo phones to feature MariSilicon X chip and Hasselblad camera optimization.

Oppo Find X5 Pro Overview:

The Find X5 series is a direct successor to last year’s Find X3 smartphones. Here, Oppo has ditched the Find X4 moniker as the number “4” is considered unlucky in the Chinese tradition. While Oppo has a total of four smartphones in the X3 lineup, the Find X5 series arrives with only three.

Design and Display

To begin with, the Oppo Find X5 Pro has a 6.7-inch LTPO AMOLED panel with QHD+ resolution and 1300 nits of peak brightness. Likewise, it’s a 10-bit display with 100% DCI-P3 color gamut, 120Hz adaptive refresh rate, and up to 1000Hz touch sampling rate.

Moreover, the front has a Gorilla Glass Victus protection, while at the rear, there’s a ceramic panel. The ceramic has better heat conductivity than glass. As a result, it should help the device to stay cool. Similarly, it’s IP68 rated for water and dust resistance. In terms of design, this time around the camera island is more unusual. Though it still has the Gradient Arc slopes, the shape of the bump itself is irregular.

Performance

Inside, the phone is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor. For better thermals, there’s a vapor chamber cooling which is 75% larger than the one installed on its predecessor. The processor is paired with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. It boots on Android 12 based ColorOS 12.1. The OS also brings a new “Multi-Screen Connect” feature that allows users to seamlessly switch between phone and Windows PC.

Camera

Oppo Marisilicon X chip

Moving on, Oppo has fitted its in-house 6nm MariSilicon X chip that brings major improvements in the camera department. The chip helps to reduce noise in the image and allows to capture 4K night videos with better colors than typical night footage. Furthermore, as per OPPO, it enables the capture of HDR videos at 20-bits per channel—that translates to a 120 dB dynamic range. 

Talking about ISP, the phone rocks three sensors at the back. The primary and ultra-wide camera uses Sony’s 50MP IMX766 sensor. This is joined by a 13MP telephoto sensor with 2x optical and 5x hybrid zoom. The main lens also has a 5-axis optical image stabilization (OIS).

The Find X5 Pro also comes with Hasselblad camera calibration that relies on the new 13-channel color sensor. Furthermore, the cameras include a glass front element, which enhances color accuracy and reduces chromatic aberration. Over on the front, there is a 32MP Sony IMX709 sensor with RGBW sub-pixels. As per Oppo, the sub-pixel allows for 60% more light.

Rest of the specs

Furthermore, compared to its predecessor, Oppo has fitted in a larger 5000mAh battery on the Find X5 Pro. It charges via 80W wired SuperVOOC charging and 50W wireless AirVOOC charging. Oppo has also included a Battery Health Engine, which increases battery life and can withstand up to 1600 charge cycles before the battery health drops to 80%.

Oppo Find X5 Overview:

Design and Display

The Find X5 has a 6.55″ 10-bit FHD+ AMOLED panel. Although it’s not an LTPO panel as Find X5 Pro, it has a 120Hz refresh rate. Similarly, it has a 240Hz touch sampling rate and a Corning Gorilla Glass Victus protection. However, it lacks an official IP rating.

Oppo FInd X5 Design and Display

The back of the device has the same design as the top-tier X5 Pro, however, it’s not a ceramic panel. It’s a glass back with a matte finish and a fingerprint-resistant frame. The Find X5 is available in White and Black colors.

Performance

Under the hood, the device packs a Snapdragon 888 processor coupled with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. It boots on ColorsOS 12.1 and supports the new “Multi-Screen Connect” feature. Likewise, it has vapor chamber cooling to keep the temperature down.

Camera

The Find X5 borrows many camera features from its elder sibling, including the 6nm MariSilicon X chip and Hasselblad camera calibration. The camera setup is likewise comparable to the X5 Pro, with two 50MP Sony IMX766 main and ultra-wide sensors. A 13MP telephoto lens rounds out the setup.

The primary camera has OIS, but not the 5-axis OIS that’s included in the Pro variant. Over on the front, there’s a 32MP IMX615 selfie camera, but with no RGBW filter.

Rest of the specs

Moreover, the handset gets its juice from a tad smaller 4800mAh cell that supports 80W SuperVOOC and 30W AirVOOC charging. For biometrics, it has an in-display fingerprint scanner.
