The OPPO Find X5 Pro was launched in Glaze Black and Ceramic White colors for the global market but will soon be sold in another, third color in China. Called Aqua Blue, the color not only delivers a fresh lick of paint but also a whole new material — leather. OPPO announced today that this new option will go on sale starting April 1st for CNY 6,299 (~USD 988) for the 12GB+256GB config.

The blue leather model is slightly thicker at 8.8mm, which is 0.3mm more than its ceramic counterparts, but is also noticeably lighter at 195g (vs the 218g of the other two colors).

The OPPO Find X5 Pro is built around a 6.7-inch 120Hz QHD+ LTPO AMOLED display with a fingerprint scanner underneath and a punch hole in the top-left housing the 32MP front camera. At the back, there’s a triple camera setup comprising 50MP primary, 50MP ultrawide, and 13MP telephoto lenses.

But perhaps the best part (and the most marketed one too) is the usage of a self-developed NPU imaging chip for the first time. Dubbed MariSilicon X, the chip is built on TSMC’s 6nm process and is said to improve both photography and videography significantly.

Powering the entire package is a 5,000mAh battery with support for 80W wired and 50W wireless charging.

The OPPO Find X5 Pro is available in two chip variants — there’s the Qualcomm option that packs the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 and then there’s the MediaTek option that features the Dimensity 9000. It isn’t clear if the Aqua Blue color will be for both options but that will be confirmed soon enough once it starts selling.
