Oppo R5 Officially Becomes The World's Thinnest Smartphone by oyewolestephen(m): 6:36pm On Oct 29, 2014 |
After the Oppo N3 cameraphone, the company unveiled its first 64-bit smartphone, which is coincidentally also its thinnest yet. The Oppo R5 measures just 4.85mm thick, the "slimmest phone in the world," Oppo claims. The company has shaved quite a bit of thickness compared to the 6.3mm Oppo R3. The frame of the phone is made of 3D- welded aluminum alloy. The frame has been hand-polished and measures just 4mm thick. The other measurements are 148.9 x 74.5mm (that's rather tall for a 5.2" device) and the weight is 155g. Anyway, the Oppo R5 has a 5.2" AMOLED screen of 1080p resolution (423ppi). The company is promising the best brightness, lowest reflectivity and highly accurate colors. The R5 will launch with Android 4.4- based Color OS 2.0. It's powered by Snapdragon 615, Qualcomm's mid-range octa-core chipset. It features an octa- core Cortex-A53 processor at 1.5GHz, which is paired with an Adreno 405 GPU and 2GB RAM. Oppo has created a special cooling element made from liquid-metal and phase-change materials to take heat away from the chipset. Oppo R5 lifestyle photos The back camera features the 13MP Sony IMX214 sensor and an f/2.0 aperture, while the front camera is a 5MP shooter. As you can see though, the back camera sticks out quite a bit. Anyway, it can record 2160p video at 30fps and 1080p@ 60fps, plus a 120fps slow-motion mode (at 720p). Despite being so thin, the Oppo R5 packs a 2,000mAh Li-Polymer battery, which will be quick to top up thanks to the VOOC mini rapid charge tech support. Connectivity starts off at 2G GPRS and goes up to TDD/FDD LTE. There's also Wi-Fi a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0. There's one thing missing - a 3.5mm audio jack. We suppose it's because the R5 is so thin, but you either have to use the wireless O-Music accessory for streaming or a microUSB to audio jack adapter (one is included in the retail package). The Oppo R5 will go on sale for $499 though we don't have an exact launch date yet. But you are welcomed to check our first impressions of the Oppo R5 right here. 1 Like 1 Share

Seriously,why make a phone so slim? I don't like thin girls and my phone is like my companion. So I don't like this, too slim for my liking. |
