  • If you're the kind of person who likes your phones simple and easy to navigate, Oppo is probably not for you, although the R5 has less bells and whistles than the N3.If, on the other hand, you prefer being in the drivers' seat, Color OS gives you more fre...

  • Abstract:  Compared to a few years ago, all smartphones are pretty damn thin. And the thickness of a smartphone's chassis is only one of its defining characteristics. But that doesn't stop the Oppo R5, measuring in at a razor-thin 4.85mm thick, from being a fascinat...

  • Sharp display, Beautifully thin design, Very powerful for the price, Cheaper than many rivals, Fastcharging technology
  • Dreadful battery life, Viewing angles and screen brightness are not great.
  • Overall, the OPPO R5 seems like a great phone with some inevitable problems. We cannot overlook the beautiful design and 4.85mm thickness of the R5 – it is incredibly sleek, and still feels sturdy to hold, thanks to its steel frame.The Snapdragon 615 proc...

  • Thinnest smartphone around, stylish design, octacore processor, decent cameras
  • No expandable memory, no radio, no headphone slot
  • The Oppo R5 may be the current record holder for slimmest smartphone, but fortunately it's also a pretty impressive performer, with a fast octa-core processor, a decent camera too. The battery could be a little better, though it's not quite a disgrace, h...

  • Super-thin, Sharp screen, Fast charging
  • Buggy, quirky software, No headphone jack, Mediocre battery life and tiny storage
  • Oppo R5 review The Oppo R5 is a phone made with a clear purpose. It wanted to become the thinnest phone in the world. It managed it, everyone clapped, then moved on. Its issue is that it needs to continue to impress in the days and weeks after you first...
