[OPPO Find X5 Pro General] retal_to:
Hello Everyone, XDA,

Here we come. I've just received my OPPO Find X5 as an OPPO Product Ambassador.

You will find the previous thread about Step 1 here: A new journey: The OPPO Product Ambassadors, Step 1

I could have gone for just some pictures here and there for the unboxing; however, I decided to pay it unsafe and make a video of it.

Any critics are good for me and will help me to improve, so don't hesitate to comment and tell me your thoughts.

And yes the surprise is the MariSilicon X NPU Chipset itself sent with the OPPO Find X5.

The Box:

Let's start with what is in the box:

Phone x 1

Charger x 1

USB Data Cable x 1

SIM Ejector Tool x 1

Safety Guide x1

Quick Start Guide x 1

Protective Case x 1

USB Dongle (Type-A to Type-C) x 1

Exclusive Service Card x 1

The box weight is around 623g. Meaning you will find inside the Charger 80W SuperVOOC and the Smartphone, USB cable, and the protective case (TPU)

The packaging is nice with only two colors, dark grey and black, premium colors. You can see a big 5 in front with the name of the Smartphone and a Silver 5G for showing its compatibility with the latest connectivity.

On the left side of the box, only the famous H logo for Hasselblad. On the right, OPPO and Hasselblad, both together, are presently showing their partnership.

Only the Android Robot with "Easy to access to the Google apps you use most" is present on the back.

I'm a little bit disappointed not to see a logo of the SoC used in the phone (whatever Mediatek or Snapdragon, it would have been nice to have them) as well as the mention of the MariSilicon X NPU.

On top of it, the classic information is IMEI, Product number, variant, SN, and Gencod.

I didn't see any Recycle logo. Quite the opposite, the "don't trash it" and "Contains SOYOIL." Theoretically, Soybean oil is one of the most sustainable, bio-renewable, abundant, and economical materials capable of competing with petroleum-derived products.

Except that, nothing more is visible from the outside.

Let's open it.

Inside the Box:

You will first find a black sleeve with the logo OPPO, black on black, containing the protective case, the safety guide in multiple languages, the quick guide and the SIM ejector tool, and the exclusive service card with a QR Code on it.

After removing it, you will find the Smartphone itself, wrapped in its plastics (seems like recycle one, and recycle logos are present, as well the indication where the wireless charger and the fingerprint sensor are located)

There is already a protective film on the screen.

After removing it, you will find another layer of protection, a simple carton with the shape of the smartphone rear.

Under it, the rest of the accessories are the charger, USB Data Cable, and USB Dongle.

And that's all.

Yes, not USB-C to Jack adapter somewhere. The Quick Start Guide is full of Hi-Res Audio, but the Smartphone doesn't have any jack. With the progress made in wireless audio; it might not be an issue for a majority of consumers in 2022. However, if I have a device with this capability, I will use my wired headphones.

Another thing that bothers me is the size of the charger, and its USB port. Its weight is around 106g, which means a lot when you are used to a GaN charger. I'm still wondering why in 2022, no more OEMs integrate chargers with this technology. We will be able to save a maximum of 40% of the space and the weight. And this charger was sent me back years back, especially with a USB Type-A port on it.

The phone:

It's small in my hands, well balanced, and the camera bump is way less than I imagined after saying the Press photos of it. The screen is slightly curved, and the bezels seem thin and symmetric. We can see the partnership between OPPO and Hasselblad on the back.

The color is nice, mat, with some glimpse of glitter depending on how the light reflects. One of the good points is that it would be difficult to see the fingerprint on it.

One thing, or detail, I like is the OPPO green color insert in the power button.

The OPPO Find X5 is still thin and feels great in hands with the protective case. The total weight of the Smartphone and the protective case is around 218g, but as I said, it is well balanced, and I don't really feel it. I even thought it was way less.

And here we are, at the end of this unboxing. Again, thank you OPPO and @OPPO Ambassador Team for this opportunity.​

It is time to conclude this step 2 for this journey.
