To further reinforce its durability, the A5 Pro 5G features an aluminum alloy frame and a display covered by reinforced double-tempered glass. According to Oppo, this improves drop resistance by 160%, making the device particularly suited for users who require extra toughness in everyday use.
Large display with high refresh rate
