Are there any ways I can revert back to CLOS12? Clos13.1 makes the battery on this phone worse. Thx

Kadiup, 13 Sep 2023Is this still a good buy for 280€? OS-updates stopping soon?Os updates are overated. I have Find X5 Never updated it still running excellent. 8h SOT. The only time it heats up is when you're gaming after 2h of gaming. But 1 h of gaming it's fine 6-7 h SOT heavy usage 8-9 h SOT light usage.
Still on Android 12 Color OS 12.1. Don't update! If you really want color os 13 or 14 buy a phone that ships with that version in the box. Waiting for color os 16 when features really change currently they're only incremental features nothing like an overhaul just graphics, predictive back gesture, new permissions sandbox blah blah 😅.
Find X5 Good phone overall. Buy Find X6 pro if you have something extra though & don't update. Terrible software policy oppo have, it's planned obsolescence clearly.

This is a great phone, if it wasn't fot the ColorOS 13.1 update ruinning it all, I was barely getting 4h30 of SoT with light usage on data, I had to send back the phone to get refunded but otherwise I really enjoyed it, it's fast, smooth, takes great pics and is overall really performent.

Software experience is everything better than good hardware of Oppo Find X5, the phone is really built well and supper durable. I wish I can swap this hardware of Find X5 & install Google's pixel software.
Waiting to see if Google's Pixel 8 series hardware will match that of Find X5 to switch but already disappointed with pixel 27W charging solution & the luck of curved screen with their thick bezels. Let's see what Pixel 9 series or 10 series brings if faster charging will be there waiting for 2 hours for a phone to charge in the pixels right now is a big NO NO for me

Software experience is everything. Find X5 I'm stack can't update or planned obsolescence set's in battery drain & overheating, I think updating Oppo removes all the temperature optimizations of Android 12 when they first released this phone. SD888 is a hot chip & what Oppo did was to throttle the chip to SD865 levels optimization. If you updated these thermal optimizations goes 🤯

Gave up on trying to live with this phone. It's getting too hot, taking one picture with the cam and you'll feel how it throttles CPU performance and the display refresh rate to 60Hz. There's no automatic refresh rate switch (from 60 to 120Hz), which makes it even worse. Ended up getting a Xiaomi 12S Pro, just waiting for it to arrive. I'm not recommending this phone. (or generally all SD 888/+ and 7 Gen1/8 Gen1 powered phones)

ColorOS 13.1 is one of the worst updates. I'm planning to use this device for about 3-4 months and then I'll get another phone. Does not need to be the latest. Planning to get the Xiaomi 12S Pro. (8+ Gen1 version)

PwndByAChick, 27 Aug 2023Should I wait for Pixel 8 or grab this for 430 ? I have Pixel 6a Don't get phones with Samsung made SoCs unless you want a hand warmer in winter + bad battery life. Even with light usage,(typing that text from my Find X5 rn) the device gets noticeably warm and overheats at some point.

Anonymous, 21 Aug 2023I have no problem with overheating and i can play games wery wellIt also depends on where you live. Here in Austria we're having temps like 38 degrees Celsius, this affects battery life and is one of the reasons the device overheats. Not only the Find X5 though. My iPhone 11 and my laptop is also getting hot. Let's see how it performs in Winter.
