OPPO R5 review: definite eye-candy but keep the charger handy

Slimness comes at its own cost and offers a below average battery backup to a device with a near flagship price tag

Mar 02 2015 By Rahul Gupta
PROS
  • Solid build
  • One of the slimmest smartphones
  • VOOC charging
  • Brilliant display
CONS
  • Pricey
  • Similar specs available in phones at a third of the price
Verdict

Well, all what it boils down to is whether the OPPO R5 worthy of the price it is being offered at? There are two ways to look at it. Firstly, the device offers a nice set of features offering great functionality, and above all the build quality offered is amazing. There are barely any flaws with the design except the missing 3.5mm audio socket, which takes away some part of the functionality. However if you compare the hardware offered by the device, the closest competition would be the HTC Desire 820, which carries similar hardware specifications while the R5 certainly beats it with its superior design and styling. However if you are looking for a cheaper option with similar hardware minus the fancy looks then the Micromax Yu Yureka is yet another option. So ultimately,  if you are looking for a well built device which you can flaunt the R5 is there for you, but be advised that the you would be paying heavily for looks.
