Here’s How the vivo V23 5G Makes You Stand Out from the Crowd

Renowned Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst Carl Jung once said: “the privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are.” Living in a world where trends come and go in a blink of an eye, authenticity and confidence are one’s greatest assets.

Staying true to yourself could be a magical charm that makes you stand out from the crowd. If you’re looking for something to express your authenticity, the vivo V23 5G is the ideal smartphone for you.

Easily recognised with its stunning color-changing exterior, the latest addition in the vivo V series family is a full-package of authentic and stylish gadget with power-packed features and extraordinary design. Here, let’s uncover how the vivo V23 5G amplifies your authenticity and confidence.

Ordinary is Boring

The vivo V23 5G Sunshine Gold boasts a trend-setting feature – it is the first smartphone with color-changing glass in Malaysia, thanks to the exclusive technology that took vivo 3-year time of development.

When exposed to sunlight and other sources of UV rays, the glass transforms into different colors for a brief amount of time. The subtle yet head-turning feature allows the users to create unique patterns on the back side of the phone. Yes, we are talking about patterns, rather than changing just the entire color block. With a little help of creatively cut paper, you can create endless patterns as you wish – polka dots, stripes, or even a logo of Harry Potter, you name it.

Channel your imagination and express individuality to the fullest through this first-of-its-kind feature.

Cinematic Selfies? No Problem

One way to express yourself is through selfie, of course. Harnessing the power of a combination of customised 50MP AF front camera sensor, 8MP super-wide-angle front camera and innovative AI algorithm, the vivo V23 5G made sure to take stunning selfies full of details and well-balanced colours while retaining one’s unique facial features.

Complemented by its exclusive Dual-Tone Spotlight housed in the front camera notches, the latest V series smartphone captures a selfie with abundant and balanced lighting between warm and cold tones. Your authentic beauty wouldn’t be compromised even in the group selfie taken with friends and family during a nighttime outdoor gathering, or a star-gazing session with your loved ones.

If that isn’t enough, its Natural Portrait Mode – which is mindfully developed for dazzling and natural image – is definitely the ace in the hole that guaranteed a killer genuine selfie.

The vivo V23 5G didn’t compromise when it comes to rear camera too. Its 64MP AF night camera, coupled with an 8MP super-wide-angle camera and a 2MP super macro camera, empower you to embrace a splendid world of intricate details.

Discover authenticity from diversity

Selfie tells a story about us – it encompasses every moment in our life and witness our growth as time goes by. We forgo the awkward selfie angles back then and incorporated more fun gesture into our selfie. We no longer want boring selfie and visual content.

With that in mind, the vivo V23 5G strives to elevate selfie moments with a range of diverse and fun features, such as 4K Selfie Video, Dual-View Video, Multi-Style Portrait, Party Portrait and more. As we said, ordinary is boring. These features allow users to explore a different form of taking selfie or even vlogging, and one might surprise themselves with a new side of them.

Extending its core value of ‘Joy of Humanity’, vivo endeavours to empower users to stay true to themselves while strengthen their self-confidence through the vivo V23 5G. If one of your resolutions in 2022 is to embrace your authenticity and be a better version of yourself, then this device could be the perfect match for you.

HSBC and ONE Esports Team Up To Tackle Financial Fitness

HSBC, one of the world’s largest international banking and financial services organizations, and ONE Esports, a leading esports media platform and subsidiary of Group ONE Holdings (ONE), today announced a new partnership that will change the way players engage with esports.

The partnership, starting as a pilot in Malaysia and Indonesia, will also see HSBC partner with ONE Esports on 10 community tournaments and one major event this year.

Global esports revenues grew to over $1bn in 2021*, with an increase in player numbers of 5.3% from 2019 of which 55% were based in Asia-Pacific.**

In-game resource management is a crucial strategic aspect of esports, but there is little financial guidance on how to optimise these valuable assets. The partners will create tailor-made content to help players manage these prized resources in multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) games, with useful hints and tips. The expert advice will also be designed to be transferable to life outside of gaming.

ONE’s Analytics and Insights team will also conduct research and produce a report on the Southeast Asian esports community’s preferences and behavior’s related to financial services.

“We are hugely excited to partner with ONE Esports and work together to help gamers, fans, and teams with their in-game and real life financial fitness,” said
Jonathan Castleman, Global Head of Brand and Brand Partnerships, HSBC
, “Our wider partnership with ONE Esports will help us to learn about an industry that is growing fast, and that is increasingly important to many of our existing and future customers.”

“ONE Esports is thrilled to unveil its partnership with global financial services giant HSBC,” said
Carlos Alimurung, CEO, ONE Esports
. “Esports has already achieved huge growth, and its potential continues to soar. HSBC has a proven track-record of helping individuals and businesses unlock opportunities, and this partnership can help us all reach new heights.”

Defining The Smart Office Of The Future: HUAWEI’s Super Device Creates A New Pathway For IoT

HUAWEI today announced the Super Device concept for Smart Office, a new solution that greatly enhances cross-device connectivity and collaboration amongst supporting HUAWEI devices. The software-driven feature arrives in line with HUAWEI’s push towards a Seamless AI Life, which the company envisions across five major scenarios –
Health and Fitness
,
Easy Travel
,
Smart Office
,
Entertainment
, and
Smart Home
.

As one of the key scenarios of HUAWEI’s Seamless AI Life, HUAWEI brings the vision of Boundless Creation and Seamless Communication to the Smart Office, aiming to enable a digitally efficient work life experience by synergising the two core HUAWEI capabilities:
Cross-Device Collaboration
 and
Ecosystem Integration
.

Cross-device collaboration enables users to connect multiple devices together into a singular experience, while ecosystem integration closes the gap between Windows and mobile platforms, stimulating creativity and improving communication efficiency.

HUAWEI Smart Office: Super Device, Super Creativity

As consumers own more and more smart devices, users often find themselves juggling two different and fragmented ecosystems: laptops for work, and smartphones for entertainment.

With no single device fully supporting all of a user’s daily needs, the ability for devices to leverage each other’s strengths and create a single unified experience has become more important than ever. This is especially important with the rising demand for maintaining productivity while consumers are on the move.

Cross-Device Collaboration makes connection between devices more seamless and fuss-free. HUAWEI has been at the frontier of innovating technology that connects devices, introducing the OneHop feature in 2018, which transfers smartphone files to PC with just one tap. In 2020, it introduced Multi-Screen Collaboration, enabling Multi-Screen Collaboration between two devices such as PC-tablet, PC-smartphone and tablet-smartphone.

This brought new functions such as the transfer of files between two devices via drag and drop, as well as the ability to directly open mobile files on the laptop. Today, HUAWEI is set to eliminate inter-device barriers by bringing the Super Device, first launched in 2021, to the Smart Office, allowing all compatible devices to work as one.

Ecosystem Integration is another core capability of Smart Office. With mobile apps excelling in content consumption needs, the HUAWEI Mobile App Engine brings access of AppGallery’s wealth of popular productivity and entertainment apps to HUAWEI laptops.

Super Device: Come Together As One

Now, the Super Device is available on HUAWEI PCs via the Super Device’s easy drag-to-connect interface in the PC’s Control Centre, enabling speedy access to your phone images and files, as well as quick and convenient smart screen connectivity for presentations. This allows a focused and efficient workflow for the user who is now able to process tasks with ease across devices.

With the Pop-Up Pairing feature, the HUAWEI PC can also swiftly and conveniently connect to HUAWEI’s wireless earbuds, speakers, Bluetooth mouse and keyboard, as well as printer, holistically improving the smart office experience.

Collaborating with HUAWEI smartphone: Super Multi-tasking

Once connected, the smartphone will be available as an external drive in the PC. This allows users to access smartphone files like they would with any other external storage device, using the PC file system UI they are familiar with.

HUAWEI Assistant · TODAY Wins World-Renowned Red Dot Award 2020
As a Super Device, the smartphone’s interface will also be displayed on the PC’s screen, and with Multi-Screen Collaboration, up to three mobile apps can be opened directly on the PC for multi-tasking. Users can also easily access material saved on their phone via their PC through drag and drop. Edit smartphone files with the HUAWEI MateBook, where all changes are automatically saved to the phone, and ready to be shared.

Collaborating with HUAWEI MatePad: Super Co-creation

Like the smartphone, upon connection, the tablet becomes recognised as an external drive in the PC, allowing free transfer and management of files between devices via drag-and-drop, or copy-and-paste.

The PC + Tablet Super Device supports three connection modes, each catering to distinct use cases.

In Mirror Mode, the PC’s screen is replicated onto the tablet’s display. Any content written or drawn with the M-Pencil on the HUAWEI MatePad is reflected in real-time on the PC – a powerful feature that helps users make the most out of professional design software.

In Extend Mode, the PC’s display is extended to the tablet, with each display showing different content. This mode transforms the tablet into an external monitor for the PC, improving productivity with more screen estate. In Collaborate Mode, the tablet’s files can be directly managed from the PC.

Collaborating with HUAWEI MateView: Super Productivity

Users have the flexibility of connecting a HUAWEI PC to a HUAWEI MateView monitor, to enjoy a larger display. The HUAWEI MateView supporting 4K+ resolution and P3 cinema-level colour gamut, allowing users to view their creative work with industry-grade detail and accuracy.

Collaborating with HUAWEI Vision: Super Presentation

The Super Device allows users to enjoy Mirror Mode and Extend Mode projections. As with the monitor, this Super Device pairing allows users to go beyond their laptop’s screen size when they require the larger screen estate, whether for higher productivity, or an enjoyable time watching their favourite entertainment on a luxurious screen.

With Extend Mode, users can take meeting notes on the HUAWEI MateBook, while hosting a conference call via the extended screen on the HUAWEI Vision.

It’s Only Just Begun

Super Device brings users to the next level of technological experience, productivity, and enjoyment as part of HUAWEI’s push to realise the Seamless AI Life. Support for Super Device functionality will extend to previous models of HUAWEI PCs, as long as users upgrade the HUAWEI PC Manager to its latest version.

In the near future, Huawei plans to continue adding support for more devices, so that it can continually improve user experiences, whether at work or play. For more information on HUAWEI Smart Office, kindly visit

Ryuujin:
 I was always playing with a game console when I was little.

, is none other than national shuttler Lee Zii Jia! Through this partnership, Lee Zii Jia continues his endorsement of OPPO’s Reno Series as the Portrait Expert on a global scale.

Lee Zii Jia is arguably the brightest icon to most Malaysians today. The way that he has reinvented himself as an athlete that paves his own path, regardless of the public’s perception of him, proves that he is an individual who is not afraid to make decisions that he truly believes in.

This partnership between OPPO and Lee Zii Jia is an exciting one which will see more collaborative efforts. For one, Lee Zii Jia will soon be making an appearance in a short TVC with OPPO, which will be announced soon!

This is in line with OPPO’s vision. As a brand with the goal to create a better world through technological artistry that fulfils consumer demands, OPPO will be repositioning the direction of its well-loved Reno series.

Previously known as the Selfie Expert, OPPO has led the selfie trend when it exploded among smartphone users in 2016. However, trends eventually diminish and disappear, and new trends and needs will arise to take place. As such, OPPO conducted a survey which revealed that consumers no longer prioritize selfies/wefies.

In the survey, OPPO identified that 76% of smartphone users take portrait photos using the rear camera more frequently, as compared to selfies (only 24% still take selfies/groupies using the front camera more often). When it comes to the importance of the smartphone camera, 76% of smartphone users surveyed answered that they pay more attention to its rear camera capabilities.

Here’s How To Make Your Home Business Easier To Run And More Effective

Are you interested in ensuring that
your home business
 is easier to run and more effective on the market? There’s still a stigma attached to home businesses. A lot of people think that they aren’t powerful enough to handle larger projects and are not as successful as companies that have main or central offices.

However, this is not the case and a home business can be just as successful as any other type of company. It just needs to be run and managed the right way.

You need to ensure that your home business is effective. In doing so, you will be able to make sure that you are able to achieve your goals on the market. Here are some of the steps that you can take to ensure that your business is easy to run and delivers everything that you are hoping for.

Use Automated Solutions

First, you should consider using automated solutions in your business model. There are numerous ways to add automation into your home business setup. For instance, you might want to think about content. Content is important for the success of your company. It is one of the ways that you can show your customers that you are committed to providing them with value, not just through deals but through information.

By constantly providing them with more information, you can guarantee that customers always have a reason to come back to your site. However, for this to be an effective strategy, you constantly need to be adding and creating more content.

This can be a challenge and it’s often going to be a struggle just to keep up with content requirements. So, how can you handle this? Well, you can use simple software and the right platform to automate content publication. Once you automate it, you can make sure that your website always feels fresh, exciting and interesting to your target audience. There are other possibilities that will be worth exploring here as well.

For instance, you do need to make sure that your website and your company feels engaging to customers. You won’t always have the time or energy to provide this engagement yourself. Automated tech can provide the answer with
chat for website
 pages.

With chat, you can make sure that your leads and clients can always engage with your business when they visit your site. A chat solution can be fully automated, providing users with quick answers to their queries. Or, it can connect them with someone who will be able to represent your business. This brings us to another step that you can take to effectively run your company.

Consider Outsourcing

One of the key benefits of running a business from home, is that you can keep your number of team members low. However, you will still need to make sure that you do rely on the right people. As such, you need to think about outsourcing. Outsourcing will ensure that you can rely on the right experts without needing to worry about issues with high costs. You just need to make sure that you are choosing any
outsourcing solution
 carefully.

First, you need to ensure that it is available for the right price. If an outsourcing solution is going to cost more than hiring a full team of staff permanently, then it becomes just a tad pointless. Shop around to find the right option for your business budget on the market.

The other point to consider is the quality of service. If you don’t get the right quality of solution, then it’s going to damage your brand in the long run and impact whether clients continue to buy from your business. It can also stop you from getting the critical word of mouth that your business needs to continue to achieve high levels of growth over the years that it stays on the market.

Outsourcing does get a bad rep. But it’s just about recognizing the warning signs of a bad company and avoiding cookie cutter solutions. This is particularly important when exploring options such as marketing services. You don’t want your business to end up looking or feeling like every other brand online.

Explore A Virtual Office

You might also want to consider using a virtual office for your home company. One of the key benefits of working from home is that you don’t have to spend a fortune on an office. This can help you cut a massive chunk out of your company budget. However, this does come with a problem.

The issue is that your business is going to appear weaker and significantly smaller. Options that we have already discussed such as chat solutions will help here because it will mean that you can
respond to customers
 without delay. However, it’s far from the end of the story and a virtual office can help you take things one step further.

Traveling Jobs to Help You See the World
With a virtual office, you can make sure it seems like you are running your company from a major business address, often in the center of the city. Some virtual offices also provide you with a place where you will be able to meet and greet new potential clients.

You can guarantee that you are able to connect with them in a place that will immediately send the right first impression. Virtual office solutions are often completely scalable which means that you don’t have to worry about struggling to fit this into your business budget.

Utilize Cloud Solutions

As we have already mentioned, you need to make sure that you are using the right tech when you are running your home business. One example of tech that your home business absolutely needs is a cloud solution.
The right cloud solution
 will ensure that you can set up instant connections between business customers, clients and business partners.

That’s important to guarantee that your business does fire on all cylinders all the time. Cloud solutions are another business service that is completely scalable. As such, you can get what you need for the right cost that will fit perfectly into your business budget.

Do be aware that a lot of companies now, even smaller businesses, are setting up multi-cloud solutions. This ensures that the company is more flexible to changes that could occur on the market in the long or short term.

Explore Managed Security

Your business will be vulnerable to security threats and this is true even if you are running your company from home. You need to make sure that you are taking the right steps to keep your business secure. Unfortunately, you won’t have time to constantly monitor your business and protect it.

But you don’t need to. Instead, you can rely on the support and services of a
managed security
 business. They will take care of everything for you and guarantee and ensure that there are no leaks in your business that are leaving your company vulnerable. This includes physical and digital threats to your company. A top-notch security business will understand the merits of things like
Just in Time Provisioning
 and can advise you of the tools you need to protect the business.

Keep Things Positive

Finally, you need to make sure that you are setting up the right environment for your home business. The success of a home business will always be dependent on the level of work and effort that you put in. If you fail to put in the right amount of effort, then your company is going to fail too. This means that you need to take steps to ensure that you are encouraging yourself to maximise your potential. The right environment can play a huge part here.

You need to make sure that
running your home company
 is something that you enjoy or that at least, doesn’t feel like a grind overall. One of the ways that you can do this is by making sure that the home office environment is comfortable for you. You should think about investing in ergonomic furniture and technology.

This will mean that you can work in your home office for longer hours without feeling the strain. You might also want to consider making your business environment more positive with the right decor. For instance, you can use wall decals to ensure that your home office is a place for inspiration.

You could even think about color psychology. Research shows that certain colors have a huge impact on the mood of people while at work. This could be true even when you are working from home.

We hope this helps you understand some of the key steps that you can take to ensure that you can run a home business effectively and get what you need from your new company. You might think that there’s a limit on what you can achieve with a home business. However, we are happy to say that this is not the case.

A home business might seem like a small or restrictive business model. However, the reality is that the possibilities are absolutely anything. You can grow your audience to exciting heights and push your company in fantastic new directions. You just have to understand the right steps to take here.

Bokeh Flare Portrait Video
 brings exclusive DSLR-like portrait video capabilities to the Reno 7 Series 5G with just a few clicks. Powered by OPPO’s image processing algorithms, Bokeh Flare Portrait Video delivers real-time processing of portrait video while keeping portrait subjects appearing natural and bright.

AI Highlight Video
 can capture details in both background and foreground clearly by automatically making optimizations based on the lighting environment. The Live HDR and Ultra Night Video algorithms of AI Highlight Video are enabled automatically when shooting video on the rear camera. Users can shoot clearer, brighter, and higher-quality videos in backlit sunsets or dark cityscapes without manual adjustment.

OPPO Launches Find X5 Series – Revolutionising Videography with 4K Ultra Night Video

The most advanced camera system powered by MariSilicon X and two IMX766 flagship sensors; true billion-colour 120Hz display; a flagship SoC platform with superior 5G performance; industry-leading 80W SUPERVOOC Flash Charging; the iconic Hasselblad Natural Colour Calibration.

OPPO today introduced its cutting-edge flagship Find X5 Series, raising the bar on smartphone imaging and premium design.

Bursting with industry-leading highlights, the Find X5 Series boasts a futuristic aesthetic that achieves clean, modern sophistication and world-first imaging experiences. These include a dedicated imaging Neural Processing Unit, which overcomes smartphone video capture’s greatest challenge – nighttime recording.

This is matched with an incomparable dual flagship IMX766 camera system, unrivalled performance and ultra-fast 5G connectivity, and incredible SUPERVOOC Flash Charging technology.

“Find X5 Series elevates the Find X series to a whole new level of beauty – both aesthetic and in terms of capabilities, redrawing the boundaries of the mobile experience across design, imaging, battery technology and performance. It builds on the core DNA that made the Find X3 Series a hit with consumers and critics alike,” said William Liu, President of Global Marketing at OPPO.

4K Ultra Night Video and Captivating Photography

Night video presents a major challenge for smartphones, so countless beautiful moments remain either uncaptured or saved in low quality. That’s why OPPO has designed a dedicated imaging NPU, MariSilicon X, to unveil the details at night.

Based on a 6nm process crafted for top-tier imaging performance, the MariSilicon X not only packs the most powerful AI computing power available today, but it also runs an advanced AI noise reduction (AINR) algorithm designed by the OPPO Research Institute. This means it can detect and reduce noise in each frame, pixel by pixel while preserving finer detail, skin tone, colour accuracy.

The result is a four times improvement in perceived night video resolution, less grain and superior colour reproduction, making 4K Ultra Night Video possible for the first time on an Android smartphone, with each frame as clean as a still photo.

Of course, OPPO’s MariSilicon X is just one key element of Find X5 Pro’s advanced imaging system. The wide and ultra-wide angle cameras both feature Sony’s advanced 50MP IMX766 flagship sensors, with a sensor size of 1/1.56”, 2um large pixel size after binning.

The wide-angle camera also features a first-of-its-kind Five-axis OIS system, which when combined with proprietary algorithms, improves with every use to counter handshake, reduce noise and sharpen scenes. The result? Even better shots and more stable videos than ever.

With superior 4K Ultra Night Video capturing across wide and ultra-wide cameras, the Find X5 Series boasts the best wide and ultra-wide imaging quality across both stills and videos in the industry.

Working closely with Sony to customise an IMX709 sensor for Find X5 Pro’s front camera, OPPO has integrated MariSilicon X to ensure selfies look better than ever, with more texture and more accurate colour reproduction – even in challenging light conditions. And when more friends jump in the frame, the selfie camera automatically switches from an 80- to a 90-degree wide-angle, making sure nobody’s left out.

OPPO Find X5 Pro also features Hasselblad Natural Colour Calibration in Pro Mode and a range of creative Master filters, bringing iconic natural colour, professional colour profile and style to mobile photography.

Futuristic Design with Premium Look and Feel

Find X5 Pro embodies a futuristic design to express a sense of calm and timeless beauty that cannot be matched.

The ultra-hard, true ceramic back of Find X5 Pro is available in Ceramic White and Glaze Black to reflect its clean, modern sophistication at its finest. This seamless ceramic back panel is two times stronger than any conventional glass panel and double as effective for heat dissipation. And of course, Find X5 Pro is splash, water, and dust resistant with an IP68 rating.

Find X5 Pro’s display is just as impressive, featuring a 6.7-inch ultra-clear curved AMOLED screen that continues the gentle curves and flowing lines from the smooth, pristine back, all the way around to the front. With a WQHD+ resolution, and 100% P3 colour gamut coverage, Find X5 Pro’s 10-bit screen displays more than 1 billion colours, creating smooth tonal and colour gradations, displaying the full depth and range of even the most subtle shifts in colour.

Find X5 Pro also boosts display performance with the first multi-brightness colour calibration of its kind, creating consistent colours, whether you’re looking at the screen under dim artificial light or a bright summer sky.

Excessive amounts of specific types of light can impact sleep and result in eye strain, so OPPO has introduced 8192-level screen dimming to the Find X5 Pro, to match pupil adjustment speeds across different lighting conditions. The result is a more comfortable viewing experience, and amongst the most advanced eye care available on a smartphone.

Most Powerful OPPO Flagship to Date

Powered by the latest-generation, multicore Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor, Find X5 Pro is supercharged to handle even the most demanding games and applications. Based on a compact, 4nm manufacturing process, Qualcomm’s integrated 2022 flagship GPU offers 30% higher performance, and 25% more power efficiency than the previous generation, in addition to enhanced AI capabilities.

Despite its class-leading power, OPPO has doubled down on efforts to boost battery life on Find X5 Pro and level-up power management. The large, 5000mAh dual-cell battery reflects a capacity increase of more than 11 per cent over Find X3 Pro.

Find X5 Pro also introduces Battery Health Engine, which helps maintain optimal battery life over a longer period of time – up to 1600 charging cycles, roughly two times the industry standard lifespan.

With the support of enhanced 80W SUPERVOOC Flash-charging technology, Find X5 Pro can be charged from close to empty to 50 per cent in just 12 minutes, and with 50W AIRVOOC, it powers up to 100 per cent wirelessly in just 47 minutes.

ColorOS 12.1: Intelligent and Secure

OPPO’s human-centric interface, ColorOS 12.1 is its most beautiful, intuitive and personal experience ever. Combining with Google’s Android 12 operating system, it delivers incredible experiences and class-leading privacy features, while maintaining full access to the Google Play Store and its 3 million+ apps.

For ColorOS 12.1, the time has been spent refining the aesthetics, from iconography to patterns, elevated with light and shadow to create a more real, three-dimensional feel. Maintaining the privacy and security of your data – whether personal or for business is also a top priority and a key focus for ColorOS.

With version 12.1, users can easily make the most of their new Find X5 Pro. And when multitasking on your phone alone isn’t enough to get things done, a new Multi-Screen Connect feature enables seamless working across a Windows PC and phone.

Maintaining the privacy and security of your data – whether personal or for business – has always been a top priority and a key focus for ColorOS. These efforts have been recognized by third-party organisations including ISO, ePrivacy, and TrustArc and in November 2021, the Find X3 Pro was the first Chinese smartphone to receive MDfPP common criteria certification.

Introducing OPPO Find X5

OPPO Find X5 has an understated, yet ultra-premium finish, with frosted, matte glass and fingerprint-resistant chassis. Available in Black or White, the fine grain of this 90% frosted texture creates a beautiful, almost silky lustre that plays with light and feels incredible in the hand.

Find X5 also includes the outstanding dual IMX766 camera system, powered by MariSilicon X, a 6.5” 120Hz billion-colour display, support for 80W SUPERVOOC charging, 30W AIRVOOC wireless charging and more.

“With the Find X5 Series, we have raised the bar for flagship smartphones in terms of style and performance, while never stopping in our exploration of new possibilities,” Liu added.

Rapid international growth reaches new heights

Through successful partnerships with leading mobile operators, growth in the $600 segment surpassed 200% in 2021, while global shipments of the OPPO Find X3 Series increased by 140% compared with the previous Find X Series.

As of December 2021, OPPO has filed for over 75,000 patent applications and over 4,500 of them are related to 5G. With these strong technical foundations, OPPO delivers a portfolio of high-performing 5G products, the success of which have resulted in the brand ranking the second for two consecutive years in global 5G smartphone shipments among Android manufacturers according to the data from Canalys.

Global partnerships with the likes of Roland-Garros and Wimbledon have also driven awareness for the OPPO brand worldwide. According to the data from Canalys, in 2021, OPPO held on to its place as the fourth largest smartphone manufacturer worldwide, with a total market share of 11%.

Taking the end-to-end smartphone experience to the next level

The OPPO Find X5 Series raises the bar for flagship smartphone performance across the board with OPPO’s best-ever technology, product experience, and customer service.

Guided by OPPO’s brand mission “Technology for Mankind, Kindness for the World”, the Find X5 Series represents OPPO’s pursuit of human-centric product features and designs aimed at improving the day-to-day lives of its users.

The design of the Find X5 Series reflects every aspect of the user experience. Built with advanced manufacturing technology, the curved and continuous ceramic back panel is anti-fingerprint and comfortable to hold while also providing greater protection and heat dissipation.
