OPPO has launched the A5 5G, the company’s latest 5G smartphone, in India after the launch of A5x 5G last month. It has a 6.67-inch HD+ LCD screen with 120Hz refresh rate, and up to 1,000 nits peak brightness.
The phone has MIL-STD-810H certification, and has been rigorously tested in the harshest of environments and conditions, be it extreme heat, moisture, and for shock resistance. It also has IP65 ratings for dust and water resistance
The OPPO A5 5G has a 360° Armour Body that integrates flagship-grade reinforced glass with 160% higher impact resistance compared to its predecessor the OPPO A3 5G, alongside a proprietary high-strength alloy frame, said the company.
It packs a Dimensity 6300 SoC with up to 8GB of RAM, has a 8MP camera on the front and a 50MP rear camera. The phone is just 7.99mm, and packs a huge, 6000mAh battery with 45W SuperVOOC charger in the box.
It can charge up to 30% in 21 minutes and 50% in 37 minutes. The A5x 5G battery retains over 80% of its capacity after 1,700 charge cycles—ensuring up to 5 years of consistent performance with daily use.
