OPPO Find X5 Lite certainly incorporates some traits of the older brothers, but it stands out rather clearly starting from its heart. No Snapdragon: the smartphone can in fact count on the SoC Mediatek Dimensity 900 octa core (with ARM Mali-G68 MC4), flanked by 8 GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 256 GB of UFS 2.2 internal memory.

The maximum supported resolution is 4K (30 fps), with EIS video stabilization at 1080p (60 and 30 fps).
For gaming, HyperBoost’s AI Frame Rate stabilizer, which prevents loss of frame rates, and the Quick Startup function come into play, to quickly return to the starting point.

At the level of design the smartphone differs from the other models of the series both in the front and in the back. On the front we have a flat glass with a slightly thicker lower edge: the hole for the front camera remains in place, also in this case moved to the left side. On the back, in addition to the changes brought about by the Starlight Black and Startrails Blue colors, we can see a more “classic” photographic module, rectangular in shape.
It is inspired by the “meteor showers” and has a design elaborated by LDI (Laser Direct Imaging). The millions of pyramid-shaped crystal structures create a refined texture ideal for not retaining fingerprints.
