what's happening everyone my name is alex and welcome back in today's video we are checking
out the one and only the oppo find x5 pro this is a super premium device from oppo that
competes with other premium devices like the samsung galaxy s22 ultra and the iphone 13 pro
of course when you get one of these premium devices you can also expect a fairly premium
price for it so this one is quite expensive it retails for about 1300 euros here in europe so
when you pay that much for a phone of course the expectations are gonna be pretty high as well now
this one was released about three months ago i'm gonna say and i've had this particular run
for about a month and a half and yes i know i am a bit late to this video but as they say better late
than never all right so why don't we start this video by checking out what comes in the box with
this all right so in the box you're gonna find a case for the phone that's definitely a nice
addition because a lot of new phones these days don't come with much in the box aside from that
you're gonna find the premium service card we have the safety guy a small user manual we also have
the sim card tray ejection tool we have a usb a to a usbc cable we have a little usb8 a usbc adapter
so you'd use this to transfer data from your old phone to the new phone and aside from that
you're going to find a 80 watt fast charger once again a nice addition because a lot of new phones
don't actually come with the charger in the box so if you're using this charger to charge the x5
pro charging it takes about 35 to 40 minutes i'm gonna say under 40 minutes depending how hot the
device is and so on but still pretty fast charging and a lot faster than the charging that you'd get
on the iphone 13 pro inside the x5 pro we have a five thousand million power battery and i have to
say i was quite surprised by how good the battery life on this device is you can easily get about
eight hours of screen on time for day to day usage so if you are using this phone full time you can
easily get eight hours of screen time so you're never gonna have to charge this phone twice in
the same day well at least the way i use my phone so much better than a lot of flagships these days
inside this phone we also have the super powerful snapdragon 8 gen 1 so the same
processor that we have inside the samsung galaxy s 22 or the s22 ultra depending on the
region where you're buying that device so you can expect really good performance from this device
as well these are a couple of um scores that i got on the antutu benchmark with the oppo find x5
pro one of the scores was done on the performance mode and the other score i got them on the regular
mode so just so you have an idea of the phones and performance now this one is using a custom
mpu so different image and video processing compared to other devices like the samsung galaxy
s22 just to give you an example and i've also done a couple of camera comparison videos between this
device and the iphone 13 and this device and of course the samsung galaxy s22 and i will
leave links to those in the video's description or the top right corner so if you want to see
what the cameras on the back of this phone can do definitely check out those some camera comparisons
the build quality of this device is also quite impressive but at that price range i was kind of
expecting that so i have the wide version of this device as you can see for yourself and i feel that
the white version looks the best because the other one that's black doesn't actually show the phone
that nicely as the white at least in my opinion so i absolutely love the white color of this
so the back here is made out of ceramic so of course since this is ceramic it's not going to
get scratched that easily it's not going to break that easily but it is ideal if you don't drop the
phone of course now the back is also extremely slippery so sometimes you put the phone on the
desk and it's just going to slip off the desk so be careful that it is extremely extremely slippery
the phone's frame is also made out of metal just as you'd expect from a premium device and it does
feel really nice in hand it has this curved shape i'm gonna say on the front of the device we have
a 6.7 inch amoled screen that has a refresh rate of 120 hertz and a quad hd resolution
this is also a curved screen now personally i'm not a big fan of curved screens anymore we've
had our share of curved screens over time but lately i do prefer flat screens but again this is
something that everyone has different preferences on so you may actually like that curved screen
personally i'm not a fan of it and i can't wait for the next generation when maybe they're gonna
have one a flat screen but who knows the peak brightness for this screen is 1300 needs so not as
high as the peak brightness that you'd get on the samsung galaxy s22 ultra however you can easily
see this phone so the screen in direct sunlight so overall this is a beautiful looking screen just as
good as you'd find on any other flagship out there there is also an in-screen fingerprint scanner and
this one works just as well as the one on the s22 so it takes about half a second from the time you
touch it for the phone to unlock and of course the phone also supports face unlocking so if you don't
use that um in screen fingerprint scanner you can always use that face unlocking so as i mentioned
earlier the phone's frame is made out of metal so we have the power button on the right hand side
here at the top there we have the hole for another microphone at the bottom we have the sim card tray
slot so this device can take two sim cards but it cannot take an sd card which is the case with
most flagships these days we have the usb c port and then we have the second speaker so you have
one speaker at the bottom and one at the top here and the speakers do sound quite good as well and
i guess next i'm going to show you a quick example just so you can hear how those speakers sound like
performance wise as you'd expect from that snapdragon 8th gen one and for this particular
device that's paired with 12 gigs of ram any application or any game that you're going to be
using on the device works really well but you'd expect that for even on cheaper devices devices
that are like five times cheaper than this so of course this has to work really really well
now i've tried quite a few phones that use that snapdragon 8gen one and i've noticed that all
the phones get extremely hot and this is the case with this device as well so if you play
a game for like an hour the phone does get quite hot and of course the hotter the phone gets some
you're gonna start getting some thermal throttling therefore the performance will kind of go down
so this is not a problem with this particular device i think it's more of an issue with the
snapdragon 8 gen one and the only phones that i've noticed that can handle something like that
are the ones that have a physical phantom inside then that can cool down that cpu better
so if you're buying this one to play a lot of games keep in mind the phone will get quite um hot
after i'm playing a game for a while color os on the other hand which is basically oppo's launcher
forum this device works much better than the one ui that you'd get on the samsung galaxy s22
this year the s22 has been pretty bad so using a device like this that feels fluid for pretty
much everything that you are doing is quite um quite nice now there are a few apps that compre
installed a few apps that nobody wants so for example we have booking.com or amazon shopping i
feel that when you pay a premium for a device like this you don't exactly want those applications to
come pre-installed on the device but other than that yes color os works really really well and the
phone did get quite a few updates over the past month and a half that i've been um using the phone
so they're on top of those updates constantly and lastly cameras because cameras are a pretty
big part for this particular device now one thing that i found a bit strange i'm gonna say is the
fact that the front-facing camera cannot record them in 4k so the maximum recording resolution
for that front-facing camera is 1080p and i was definitely expecting 4k recordings from that
front-facing camera i find that a bit um strange i'm gonna say as for the back um cameras here the
rear cameras we have the main camera we have an ultra white camera and then we have a two-time
telephoto lens now the cameras have a lot of potential but like any other phone it depends
on who's taking pictures it depends on your imagination and so on so i did take about three
400 pictures to this phone over the past month and a half and i'm gonna play some of those some
pictures on the screen so you can see them and as i mentioned earlier i did do those two camera
comparisons so if you want to see more sample pictures more sample videos and um see how those
pictures compare with the device like the iphone 13 or the samsung galaxy s42 definitely check out
those some camera comparisons so the cameras on this phone have a lot of potential as you've seen
for yourself but what do you guys think do you feel that the cameras on it are better than the
cameras that you get on a flagship from samsung or the cameras that you get on a flagship from apple
definitely leave a comment down below and let me know your thoughts personally because the
cameras have been hyped so much i had some really crazy expectations for the cameras on the back
of this phone not necessarily the front camera but definitely the rear cameras and i feel that
i can take the same pictures with a lot of other phones that i can take with this particular phone
now to quickly conclude this video if you are looking for a premium device and you also want a
flagship device but you want to be a bit different you don't have the same samsung galaxy s 22 that
everyone is having or the same iphone 13 this is definitely a very nice phone i mean it does feel
premium it does look premium i think it actually looks better than the s22 and the iphone 13.
this back does look quite um impressive it is a fast phone it has great performance great battery
life a beautiful screen and the cameras have a lot of potential depending on your imagination
of course and what you can do with those cameras but it is an expensive phone so it will be hard to
sell a phone like this in my um opinion all right guys definitely leave a comment down below and
let me know your thoughts about the oppo find them x5 pro hopefully you did like the video
don't forget to press that like button and i will see you guys in the next one thanks for watching
