Unveiled: Oppo Find X5 Pro encourages you to enjoy the night
The Oppo Find X5 Pro, the company’s newest flagship smartphone, has been launched. Aside from some minor cosmetic changes, the new phone is quite similar to the Oppo Find X3 Pro. This phone might be one of the greatest Android phones you can purchase this year if it receives all of these improvements. If you live in the United States, you won’t be able to get your hands on the Find X5 Pro.
With its high-end specifications, the Oppo Find X5 Pro is a great flagship phone. You can count on 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage to support the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 at its core.
Samsung’s Galaxy S22 Ultra has a 6.7-inch 120Hz refresh rate display, but the new LTPO screen means that it can be scaled as low as 1Hz to save battery. To make it seem like you’re really engaging with the applications, there’s an enormous 1,000Hz touch sampling rate.
In order to charge the 5,000 mAh battery pack quicker than before, Oppo has increased its superfast charging from 65W to 80W. The AirVOOC charger provides wireless charging at a maximum of 50W.
A style that is both well-known and striking.
Only this time around, the camera hump is built into the phone’s unibody rather than a separate piece of hardware, making it easier to hold the phone with one hand.
Oppo could have done a lot more with the Find X3 Pro’s design, considering how different it was from the Oppo Find X2 Pro. However, the Glaze Black and Ceramic White variants are more appealing to the eye, and the Find X5 Pro is a beautiful phone to touch and use, but the glossy black model displays fingerprints to the point of obsolescence.
There are two new 50-megapixel cameras, one of which is an ultrawide with the same Sony sensor used in the primary one, in X5 Pro. A 13MP telephoto camera with a 2x optical zoom completes the set. The front-facing camera has a resolution of 32 megapixels. If you’ve heard this one before, I apologise, but they are the same camera specifications as the Find X3 Pro.
In any event, there’s more to the tale. With Hasselblad’s help, Oppo and its brother phone company OnePlus have teamed together to create a new smartphone that combines both hardware and software expertise.
The Find X5 Pro includes a new image neural processing unit called MariSilicon X, which we’ve already seen in the OnePlus 9 Pro.
Let there be light: Oppo Find X5 Pro
The Find X5 pro’s AI image processing is powered by a 6-nanometer processor, which should result in better photos, particularly in low light.
So far, I’ve just taken a few photographs and compared them to those taken by the iPhone 13 Pro and Google Pixel 6 Pro, but the Find X5 Pro’s camera system has impressed me.

Even while the images don’t have the same level of sharp contrast as Google’s phone or Apple’s phone’s colour temperature, I’m nevertheless pleased with the Find X5 Pro’s photos so far.

However, low-light photography and videography will be big this year. To improve night mode noise reduction, the new MariSilicon X has been finely optimised. Overall, it seems to have been successful.
Here’s a good example of what I mean: The Find X5 Pro performed well in low light conditions. When seen at a larger size, the letters and numbers on the licence plates are more clearly defined than in a comparable iPhone 13 Pro photo. There are no streetlights out, which is a problem even the greatest smartphones have trouble with.
The iPhone 13 Pro can trump the Find X5 Pro in certain low-light situations. The Find X5 Pro, on the other hand, shines when Cupertino’s flagship fails to light up a really gloomy scene.
Good night modes, on the other hand, aren’t all that rare on high-end smartphones. The Find X5 Pro will thus be distinguished by Oppo when it comes to recording movies in the dark.
The new MariSilicon X chip-powered 4K Night Mode can enhance dark situations, bringing up shadow depth and preventing light sources from blowing out the image.
The Oppo Find X5 Pro may be one of the greatest smartphones of the year when it comes to nighttime photography and video recording, but I’ll need more time to test this.
And I certainly hope so, considering it’s not exactly cheap at £1,049 either. Even though the Oppo Find X5 is somewhat cheaper than its predecessor, it is still more expensive than the iPhone 13 Pro, Pixel 6, and Samsung Galaxy S22 Plus. If it doesn’t provide a completely fresh design, it’s perilous to be in that position.
For now, the Find X5 Pro seems to be a very well-executed smartphone, with no unnecessary fluff or gimmickry to be found in its design or features.
