Oppo has introduced its new A5 Pro 5G in India. This device has two models, including an 8GB RAM + 128GB storage version as well as an 8GB RAM and 256GB storage model. It comes with a robust design, enhanced durability, and it is positioned as a rugged mid-range device. It boasts IP66, IP68, and IP69 water and dust resistance ratings, along with MIL-STD-810H-2022 military certification, offering substantial protection against drops, dust, and submersion.
To further reinforce its durability, the A5 Pro 5G features an aluminum alloy frame and a display covered by reinforced double-tempered glass. Oppo claims that this increases drop resistance by 160%, making the device especially appropriate for users who need more durability for daily use.
Large display with high refresh rate
The phone has a 6.67-inch IPS LCD screen with a refresh rate of 120 Hz and a resolution of 1604 x 720 pixels. Oppo claims that the panel can reach a maximum brightness of 1000 nits, ensuring visibility even in bright outdoor settings. Even though the resolution is still modest for the screen size, users who value fluid scrolling and responsive interaction might find the high refresh rate appealing.
The A5 Pro 5G runs on the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 chipset. The phone has 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM and two UFS 2.2 storage capacities: 128GB and 256GB. It is designed to handle light gaming and multitasking loads without overheating, as evidenced by the addition of a vapour chamber for thermal control.
With a 5800mAh battery capacity, the device’s battery life is another priority. To minimise downtime for users who require a rapid power boost during the day, the phone supports 45W SUPERVOOC fast charging.
The dual-camera setup on the rear of the A5 Pro 5G consists of a 2MP monochrome depth sensor and a 50MP f/1.8 primary sensor. Users can record up to 60 frames per second of 1080p video with the rear camera. An 8MP camera on the front can record 720p video at 30 frames per second.
The device comes in two different finishes: Feather Blue, which has a gradient of feathers, and Mocha Brown, which has a matte texture. It also supports Oppo Glow technology for scratch resistance. In terms of pricing, the 8GB/128GB model sells for ₹17,999 (about $211), while the 8GB/256GB model is going for ₹19,999 (about $234). Consumers can purchase the A5 Pro 5G via Amazon, Flipkart, OPPO Store, and offline retailers across India.
