The Oppo F5 comes in a characteristic metal unibody design that features horizontal antenna lines at the bottom and the top end of the phone. To the front, lies a huge 6 inch Full HD+ Full Screen 18:9 display with minimal bezels on the forehead and chin. Apparently, the new age 18:9 display has allowed Oppo to accommodate a pretty large display in a rather small form factor. The upcoming Oppo R11s and the OnePlus 5 is said to come with similar display technology, albeit they will come with slightly smaller panels.
Without the doubt, the main talking point of the Oppo F5 is its 20MP f/2.0 front camera. This selfie shooter is backed by a larger ½.8” sensor thereby allowing it capture greater details in lower lit conditions. That aside, the front shooter is backed by an AI-based Beauty Recognition technology. This scans over 200 facial recognitions spots to beautify a selfie. Furthermore, Oppo’s own camera app comes with various tweaks including the ability to blur selfie background, much like a Portrait Mode in the iPhones. Moreover, the front shooter on the Oppo F5 is mated with a 16MP f/1.8 rear camera equipped with LED Flash.
