A Pro Grade Camera Setup:
Oppo X5 Pro features a Triple Camera setup on its back, a 50 MP Wide angle lens with f/1.7 aperture, a 50 MP Ultra-wide lens and also a 13 MP Telephoto lens. The 50 MP Wide angle lens also acts as a main shooter for taking amazing pictures.
The setup is also equipped with an impressive set of features like Hassleblad color calibration, 5-axis OIS and a dedicated NPU chip called MariSillicon X. Therefore, the hashtag (#Bringthelight) is quite apt for the device because it has certainly got what it takes to #Savethenight.
The Yin-Yang Color Schemes
There's a reason why white and black are considered the classics. When it comes to the looks, white and black won't go wrong any time. OPPO X5 Pro comes with these two impressive color schemes Ceramic Black and White. They look like Yin and Yang. The two complementary principles of Chinese philosophy. Both of these colors compliments each other and also compliments the looks and feel of the device.
Features Not One but Two Power Houses
Having a flagship processor seems like old school to me after seeing this phone. This phone has got not one but two flagship grade chipset units powering it. Oppo has recently unveiled Find X50 Pro, the next-gen smartphone range in their X-Series lineup. The model was equipped with the highest possible hardware specs right now. It has got the all-new Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset with the most powerful Adreno 730 GPU working under its good. Apart from carrying the most powerful CPU and GPU combos, this smartphones also got a new and improved NPU working under their hood. Oppo is calling it as MariSillicon X. To know more about it.

Part 5: Conclusion (OPPO Find X5 Product Review from the Land Down Under)

For the past couple of weeks, my SIM Card has been inserted into a new OPPO Find X5 (Black, 256GB on-board storage, 8GB RAM, and Model CPH2037), which I received from OPPO (thank you for the OPPOrtunity!), as one of their 20 global OPPO Product Ambassadors. It has become my daily driver, and replaces my previous OPPO Find X3 Pro. The following are my views and opinion only.
In real life, I enjoy Smart Phone technology, and manage all of my online presence (including my twitter (more than 181,000 tweets so far), Instagram and LinkedIn accounts), directly from my Smart Phone.
I’ve broken down my OPPO Find X5 Product Review into shorter sections, which makes it either easier to read everything, or perhaps you may just jump to the topics that are important to you:
Summary
Build Quality and Design, and Overall Performance
Camera Performance and Other Performance Features
Best ColorOS Features and Battery Review
Conclusion (you are here)
Conclusion:
The OPPO Find X5 is a premium phone and for me a worthy successor to the Find X3 Pro. It looks different to its competitors by having an organically shaped camera housing which is not the normal rectangular slab. It feels sturdy, not bulky and sits nicely balanced, cradled in your hands for hours at a time.
I have been enjoying getting accustomed to the cameras’ performance, and now night time photography and videography is “a thing” for me. The Marisilicon X NPU and the AI takes a lot of guesswork out for me, and I can now point and shoot without much hesitation, knowing full well, the majority of photos will be of high quality, and of use to me for my social media posts.
I am now becoming accustomed to allowing my Find X5’s battery run down over a normal day, knowing a full charge is a Cup of Coffee and an Almond Croissant time away (with the 80W SUPERVOOC wall charger). Peace of mind, finally.
I thoroughly enjoyed my OPPO Find X3 Pro, and used it for the longest time of any smartphone I’ve owned, but I feel the OPPO Find X5’s fit and feel, finish, smooth performance and intelligent camera system (complete with standalone Marisilicon X NPU) will be my go-to smartphone for a whole lot longer.

Thank you to the OPPO Team and to the Members of the XDA Forums, for providing me this chance to present my real life review.
Thank you for taking the time to read my Real Life Product Review of the OPPO Find X5. I welcome any questions you may have (noting I'm not an experience Tech Reviewer), and if I cannot answer them, I will seek the answer from either another OPPO Product Ambassador, or from the OPPO Team.

HI-Res Mode
HI-Res Mode is best for well-lit natural scenery and non-moving subjects. Compare with normal photo, the HI-RES can produce 8192 x 6144 Pixels dimensions photo, so that you have a clearer and better print quality.

Filters
The camera system also features Hasselblad's Natural Color calibration and applied 3 master filters (Radiance, Emerald and Serenity) which calibrated with 3 Hasselblad photographers, it brings realistic professional color styles to mobile photography.
Serenity – calibrated with Hasselblad Ambassador Yin Chao who is a fashion photographer, when you capture a portrait you can apply this filter, but I tried this filter also can use in the indoor environment to create a classic and quite feeling.
Radiance – calibrated with Hasselblad Masters Ben Thomas who is a urban spaces photography, when you capture a colorful urban spaces you can apply this filter, it creates a colorful and styled feeling.
Emerald – calibrated with Hasselblad Masters David Peskens who is a landscape photographer, when you capture a landscape with wildlife you can apply this filter, it creates a mysterious and moody feeling.
These photos look amazing, right? It is all because of this MariSilicon X image signal processor to bring more powerful AI photo/video processing.
Here are some sample photos of OPPO Find X5 Pro that I captured in Singapore.
Mengguo’s Photography Tips:
1. OPPO Find X5 Pro Adaptive Sleep function can use in photography also, when you place the phone at a tripod and wait for the sunset and sunrise, you can use this function to avoid the display off.
2. When taking photos, you can always on Grid and guide, level in camera setting.
3. In Pro mode, you can separate the Focus and Metering, usually I will put metering point at the most brightness place, and focus point to the main object.
Battery Review
OPPO Find X5 Pro comes with 5000mAH large battery, with its 80W wired charging adaptor, your phone can charge extremely fast.
I did a test it can fully charge in around 30 minutes, instead of charging your phone a whole night when you sleep, you just power up before making breakfast and you can have a full day of charge.
Conclusion
If you are looking for a unique design with good performance, awesome camera system, fast charging ability, OPPO Find X5 Pro absolutely is one of your best choices.

Night photos with the OPPO Find X5 - #SaveTheNight - Step 4

Hello All,
It's time to share some shots with the OPPO Find X5 and see how this one acts at night.
Let's start with some architecture shots:

Final thoughts:
So far, shooting at night is pretty straightforward. Depending on the color restitution you're seeking, the best is still to untick the HDR, especially at night.
AI mode is still doing the job. However, as usual, I have better results when I shoot with the Pro Mode. Sorry, I'm an old guy that prefers taking his time and fine-tuning before shooting and avoiding post-treatment. However, if you are in a hurry and just want to use the auto mode, it's working perfectly.
Just be aware depending on how low is the light around you, you might have 1 or 2 seconds capturing, so avoid moving or handshake.
There is also a dedicated mode, the night mode. For this one, I will advise you to take a tripod with you for the best result and choose the 3sc delay before shooting, except if you have a Bluetooth remote. By the way, in this mode, there is an option for tripod owners.
Another useful mode is the long exposure one. With three options, Water/Rainfall, Light trail, and light painting, your basics needs would be covered at 90%. The same for this mode; better to have a tripod with you.
I enclose some long exposure shots below.
So I have the OPPO Find X5 none Pro under SD 888 and only 2 axis stab vs the 8 Gen 1 and 5 axis stab of the Pro variant. Theoretically not the best combination of the X5 series. Still, it is pretty capable of shooting at night. Is it due to the MariSilicon NPU? Hard to tell as the experience is seamless. You don't have any indication when playing and when the smartphone is using it.
I think it could be excellent for OPPO to have a dedicated icon or information (as the 10 Bit mentioned) for indicating when their custom-made imaging NPU is ON on these scenes or shot mode with a direct live view with and without.
For the color science and the partnership with Hasselblad, I will advise you to untick HDR mode in the night shot as a first. You will have also better colors (at least close to reality with AI off). Again the best color restitution lies in the Pro Mode (when not everything is full auto). In other ways, you might have a red too much red-ish (same with blue going neon style), some oversaturated colors here and there. I know it's a trend since Samsung introduced its AMOLED tech and it's pleasant to the eyes, but still, if it's the reality you see through your eyes, shot without these options ON.
Again, thank you OPPO and @OPPO Ambassador Team for this opportunity.​

OPPO Find X5 Pro Unboxing (OPPO Ambassador)

Here's a quick look at unboxing the OPPO Find X5 Pro and initial first impressions of this Snapdragon 8GEN1 flagship phone.

The phone comes with a Super VOOC 80W charger that in my tests will charge the Find X5 Pro to 100% in around 37 minutes from empty. We also get a TPU case in grey, sim tray eject tool, premium services card, and type-A to type-c USB cable.
The finish of the Find X5 Pro is superb, the ceramic back especially the form of the camera module looks fantastic to me one of the best camera modules of recent Android flagships.
The QHD+ LTPO2 screen is super bright over 1000 nits measured, it holds up well in direct sunlight and is very legible.
A quick test of a very demanding console & PC port Genshin Impact shows the SD8Gen1 performs well, but a dip in performance was quite noticeable after gaming for extended periods. The surface thermals remained under 43 degrees as the phone was throttled to keep the temperatures in check.
ColorOS 12.1 runs is fluid with no noticeable animation lags unlike some other Android 12 phones tested like the S22 Ultra (Exynos) or Xiaomi 12 Pro.
Initial first impressions:
Pros:
Very good build and finish with a sleek looking camera module
Great low light camera performance thanks to the Marisilicion NPU and colour profile from Hasselblad
Stunning QHD+ screen and accurate fingerprint reader
Fast stable UI with no noticeable animation lag
One of the best ultrawide cameras tested
Cons:
Video audio is quite poor, OPPO needs to address this. Low bitrate of 96kbps
It's expensive at around 1300 euros here in Spain
Shutter lag in some scenarios means moving objects will be blurred
