This year, for the first time, Realme released a top-tier flagship. We are talking about the Realme GT 2 Pro which hitten the global shelves in the last few days with amazing specifications. Despite being a premium flagship, its price is still not at the same level as the top-tier flagships from the other mainstream brands. Its price range (almost) matches the one of the OPPO Find X5, the vanilla version of the new Find X5 Series including the Find X5 Pro, and the Lite variant as well (in the global market). So is it better to go for the most advanced Relame device or for the affordable flagship of the OPPO advanced lineup? We hope to answer this question through a comparison between their specifications.

Design

Realme GT 2 Pro has a green and sustainable design. Its body has been built with a special bio-polymer which resembles the touch & feel of the paper allowing for lower carbon emissions. And it looks very innovative thanks to that. On the other hand, the OPPO Find X5 has a futuristic look as well, thanks to its glass + aluminum body full of curves. It has not the same ceramic body as the Find X5 Pro, but it remains a very original and interesting phone if we talk about aesthetics. Which one would you pick?

 

Display

The Realme GT 2 Pro has a superior display if compared to the OPPO Find X5. Its panel has the same specifications as the display found on the Find X5 Pro and the OnePlus 10 Pro. It is an AMOLED panel with a 6.7-inch diagonal, a Quad HD+ resolution of 1440 x 3216 pixels, one billion colors, an adaptive refresh rate from 1 to 120 Hz, a peak brightness up to 1400 nits, and the HDR10+ certification. The OPPO Find X5 has similar specifications but it comes with a lower Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels and without the LTPO technology. Both the handsets come with stereo speakers and in-display fingerprint scanners.

 

Specs & Software

The Realme GT 2 Pro wins even when it comes to the hardware department. It is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 that is actually the best Qualcomm chipset to date, paired with up to 12 GB of RAM and up to 512 GB of native storage (up to 256 GB in the European market). The OPPO Find X5 is powered by Qualcomm’s flagship mobile platform from 2021: the weaker Snapdragon 888. The highest-end memory configuration is the same, but the CPU and GPU performances are lower. There are not many differences between the two user interfaces installed: the Realme UI 3.0 actually comes with the ColorOS codebase just like the OxygenOS, so there are just a few different customizations, but the core is the same.

 

Camera

The OPPO Find X5 is a more interesting phone if we consider the camera departments. Both the handsets come with a pair of 50 MP rear cameras: a Sony IMX766 main sensor with OIS and a Sony IMX766 ultrawide camera. But the third sensor is different: the Find X5 has a better 13 MP telephoto lens, while the Realme GT 2 Pro replaces it with a 3 MP microscope camera with 40x magnification for macro shots. Further, the OPPO Find X5 adds the amazing MariSilicon X NPU improving the image quality, especially in low light conditions.

 

Battery

The Realme GT 2 Pro is equipped with a bigger 5000 mAh battery, so its battery life should be longer. On the other hand, the OPPO Find X5 supports faster 80W charging and, unlike the GT 2 Pro, it even comes with wireless charging (50W).

 

Price

The OPPO Find X5 retails for €999/$1090 in Europe, while you can find the Realme GT 2 Pro for €749/$817. Which one should you go for? It depends on your needs: the OPPO Find X5 comes with better cameras, faster charging, and wireless charging, while the Realme GT 2 Pro has a better display, a superior chipset, and a bigger battery. Now, you can make your choice.
