OPPO K5 features, specification and price
As expected, OPPO K5 is official on the same day as OPPO Reno A in Japan and OPPO Reno Ace in China. It is a new model that bets on 64 megapixels for its main sensor. The OPPO K5 is a much more premium version than its brother the OPPO K3: in exchange for not having a motorized system for its front lens, it has a 64 MP quad camera and Snapdragon 730G as a processor.

64 MPs are in fashion
The star feature of this OPPO K5 is undoubtedly its main camera. It’s four lenses, something that doesn’t surprise us as much as it used to, but what’s even more special is that the main sensor is up to megapixels: 64 MP to be exact. These megapixels can combine four of their pixels into one for more detailed, brighter images, or create a huge image under the right lighting conditions. This main sensor is accompanied by a super wide-angle 8 MP with a 119-degree angle and two other lenses.
OPPO has not given us too many details of these two additional lenses, although apparently they are two 2 MP sensors intended to enhance the portraits taken with the terminal. One of them is a monochrome lens, while the other is used to calculate the depth and generate the Gamer processor. For the screen, OPPO has opted for a 6.4-inch OLED panel with Full HD+ resolution that goes from edge to edge interrupted only by the V-shaped notch that crowns the terminal. In it is the 32 megapixel front camera.
Not only does this OPPO K5 live on camera, and OPPO has made sure that it also has a good performance. It has Qualcomm’s gaming processor, the Snapdragon 730G and a choice of 6 GB or 8 GB of RAM, depending on the version. Storage is also available in two flavors: 128GB and 256GB, both UFS 2.1. The GameBoost 2.0 software and Dual Wi-Fi, which connects to both the 2.4 and 5 Ghz networks of the same connection to achieve – in theory – greater stability in the connection, are a great help in performance. As for the battery, we have a not inconsiderable capacity of 4,000 mAh with VOOC 4.0 rapid charge support, or 30W. All this by connecting a standard USB-C cable.
OPPO K5 versions and prices
OPPO K5 has been officially introduced in China in two versions with 6 GB RAM and 128 GB storage and with 8 GB and 128 GB storage and in two colors: greenish blue and white. Although in theory there is also a higher version of 256 GB, at the moment we do not know its price. These are the official prices:
– OPPO K5 of 6+128 GB, 1899 yuan, about 242 euros at change.
– OPPO K5 8+128 GB, 2099 yuan, about 268 euros at change.
