Design
The design of the iPhone is iconic and it sets the trend, sure, but the OPPO Find X5 Pro is definitely more innovative. It is built with a ceramic body crafted at 1000 °C and full of curves: an impossible surface that you can not find on any other phone. This design inspired by a spaceship is very original and more attractive, but on the other hand, the iPhone 13 Pro Max has an outstanding build quality. Its glasses are protected by the strong Ceramic Shield and the frame is made of stainless steel. Further, it is waterproof up to 6 meters deep thanks to the IP68 certification. The Find X5 Pro has the IP68 certification as well, but it is waterproof up to 1.5 meters deep. On the other hand, it has a curved screen, while the display of the iPhone is flat.
Display
On the paper, the display of the OPPO Find X5 Pro looks superior to the one found on the iPhone 13 Pro Max. It is an AMOLED panel that shows up to one billion colors, sporting the LTPO2 technology enabling an adaptive refresh rate from 1 to 120 Hz, a Quad HD+ resolution of 1440 x 3216 pixels, the HDR10+ certification, and a peak brightness up to 1,300 nits. The color accuracy is definitely perfect, but you should not underestimate the Super Retina XDR OLED of the iPhone. It has amazing color accuracy as well and every expert agrees on this. The Find X5 Pro relies on an in-display fingerprint reader for authentication, while the iPhone relies on 3D facial recognition thanks to Face ID.
Specs & Software
If you are trying to choose your favorite flagship between these two handsets, you should not focus so much on the hardware department because they are both excellent from this point of view. The OPPO Find X5 Pro has the best Qualcomm chipset: the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, paired with up to 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB of internal storage in the global market. The iPhone 13 Pro Max has an Apple A15 Bionic chipset paired with 6 GB of RAM and up to 1 TB of internal storage. Even though it has a lower amount of RAM, it provides better performance thanks to the amazing optimization of the iOS operating system. Both the phones will be supported with updates for a long time, but the iPhone 13 Pro Max will get longer software support.
Camera
The OPPO Find X5 Pro has better camera capabilities than iPhone 13 Pro Max. It comes with a pair of Sony IMX766 sensors with a 50 MP resolution, including an ultrawide one, as well as a 13 MP telephoto sensor with optical zoom. Thanks to its amazing sensors and the MariSilicon X NPU, as well as the cooperation with Hasselblad, it obtains brighter photos in the dark and more brilliant colors than iPhone 13 Pro Max. But the latter is amazing at recording videos.
Battery
The OPPO Find X5 Pro comes with a bigger 5000 mAh battery than iPhone 13 Pro Max, however, the battery life of these two phones is not so different because iOS provides a better software optimization with lower energy consumption. But one thing is certain: the Find X5 Pro charges faster thanks to 80W wired charging and 50W wireless charging.
Price
The prices of the OPPO Find X5 Pro and the iPhone 13 Pro Max in the European market range from €1200/$1313 to €1300/$1420 and they are not very different. Each device has its pros and cons and choosing the best one depends on the user’s needs: which one would you pick?
