Oppo announced the Find X5 and Find X5 Pro yesterday, both powered by Qualcomm chips, but it appears the company's homeland will also get a second version of the Pro outfitted with a MediaTek Dimensity 9000 chipset. The Oppo Find X5 Pro Dimensity Editon is the first smartphone to launch with MediaTek’s new powerhouse, announced late last year.
Compared to the Qualcomm version of the
phone for global markets, the Dimensity model has mostly identical
specifications from the 6.7-inch AMOLED screen, to the 12GB + 256GB
configuration, 5000 mAh battery with support for 80W wired charging, and the camera
hardware. The other differences are that the Dimensity model will miss out on
the MariSilicon X image chip, the 5-axis OIS and Hasselblad’s color
calibration.
The Oppo Find X5 Pro Dimensity Edition
will come in Ceramic Black and Ceramic White options priced at CNY 5799 (€ 810)
for the 12GB + 256GB variant. For reference, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 variant
runs for CNY 6299 (€ 880) with the same RAM + storage configuration. The
Dimensity Edition goes on pre-sale on March 14 with general availability
starting March 18 in China.
