Oppo A5 has a Snapdragon 6 gene 1 chipset and a full HD+ resolution with a 1 chipset and 6.7 “amoled screen and refreshed rates up to 120 Hz.
There is a large island behind the phone with four circles, but only two have cameras – a 50 MP main lens and a 2 MP portrait assistant. The third is for LED flash, while the fourth acts as a design element without any functionality.
Oppo brings A5 with a 6,500 mAh battery that supports 45W charging. The phone is certified IP69 and offers 360-degree NFC. It comes with Coloros 15 based on Android 15.
The Oppo A5 weighs 185 grams, and the entire device is 7.65 mm thin, while the bezel on the front is just 1.39 mm.
Oppo A5 comes in three colors – zircon black (a purple shade), crystal diamond (a pink color), and blue. Prices are CNY1,299 ($ 180/€ 165) for 8/128 GB, CNY1,499 ($ 210/€ 190) for 8/256 GB, CNY1,799 ($ 250/€ 225) 12/256 GB and CNY1,999 ($ 275/€ 250).
Oppo A5 Energy Edition
The A5 Energy version is already being sold as Oppo A5 Pro in the Republic of China (not being confused with Oppo A5 Pro in the People’s Republic of China). It has only one set of glasses, but here it comes with a Z green.
The Oppo A5 Energy Edition has a demetance 6300 chipset, 6.67 “with LCD HD + Resolution, and 50 MP + 2 MP camera combo on the back.
It is certainly a more affordable version, compared to the Vanilla Oppo A5, and even the capacity of the battery is less impressive – 5,800 mAh with 45W wired charging.
Oppo retained Coloros 15 Interface, 360-Digry NFC and IP69 certification. It also promises military-grade durability similar to its vanilla counterpart.
