Oppo Find 5 review: Oppo-lent screen

6 February 2013
Oppo is perhaps better known for its Blu-Ray players, but if the Find 5 fails to place it on the map as a phone maker, we don’t know what will. The 5” 1080p screen will sure have plenty of eyeballs on it and its 441ppi density will certainly impress most...

Having picked up the yesterday as a pre order, have been playing with the phone and have to say it is running very well, The camera works vey well and has taken some great shots.
The screen is very crisp and can be viewed well in sun shine as we are have lots of sun at present.
The music player works very well and the speakers are great .
Having been using the samsung galaxy s11 this phone is better than that and the screen on this phone is fantastic and it feels really good in your hand, i also got the screen cover that is a bit like the cover from the ipad and lets you view the screen on the desk.
It feels very good and does not feel heavy at all.
So all in all a very good machine very glad I bought this phone

        You will be stuck on the same version of software forever. Just like ZTE does people. You will never see an upgrade after they get your money and they will not release source code, or an unlocked bootloader, So you will be stuck on stock, no roms, no SD card slot, and it going to be locked down, no community development! forever. Have fun, I'll pass!!!

                " the same number of pixels most HDTVs have, except this time they fit on a surface about 100 times smaller in size."

                Not sure about you guys, but I don't know anyone with a 500 inch tv! lol :)

                                Anonymous, 06 Feb 2013Krait cpu is based on cortex A15 ?!No, it just uses its architecture. exynos 5250 chipset is actually the first one based on true a15.

                                      In russia bbk most terrible and low quality products.

                                      So... buy or not - you decide!
