The Oppo Find 5 was always expected to hit the U.S. and China in the first quarter of next year. Now, Oppo has released a larger, but still not complete, list of countries where the beast will be found. But even before we give out that list, we'd like to keep you in suspense for a second as we go back through the phone's specs once again.
The Oppo Find 5
The Oppo Find 5 will feature a 5 inch LCD screen with resolution of 1080 x 1920 which brings an outstanding pixel density of 441ppi. That puts the phone in the same category as the HTC DROID DNA. A quad-core 1.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro APQ8064 processor is doing the heavy lifting while the Adreno 320 crunches the graphics. 2GB of RAM is on board, there is 16GB of native storage (and no microSD slot), and the back and front cameras weigh in at 13MP and 1.9MP respectively. A 2500mAh battery keeps the lights on and Android 4.1.2 is installed out of the box.
Now, we can get to the countries where Oppo says you will be able to find the phone next quarter. These include Canada, UK, Spain, Australia, Germany, France, Belgium, Malaysia, Sweden, Singapore, Finland, Greece, Denmark, New Zealand, Norway, Japan and Hong Kong. This is not an inclusive list, according to the manufacturer. The news is quite a reversal from what we passed along just the other day when an Oppo company spokesman said that the phone would not be launched in Europe.
The phone will launch next month in China and it is hoped that the U.S. launch will take place shorty thereafter. In the States, the phone will support the HSPA+ network of AT&T and T-Mobile. It will be sold unlocked and off contract for $499 for the 16GB model. A 32GB model is now expected which will cost $569.
