Alongside the A5, Oppo today also announced the A5 Vitality Edition in China. It is an even more affordable variant of the two, so there are some pretty apparent differences between them. 

Oppo A5 Vitality Edition Overview

That starts with the design itself. The Vitality Edition features a left-aligned camera module and comes in Agate Pink, Jade Green, and Amber Black color options.

The display also takes a hit compared to the standard A5. Instead of the A5’s AMOLED display, this version has a 6.67-inch IPS LCD panel with HD+ resolution. But Oppo is keeping the 120Hz refresh rate here for a smooth experience despite the downgrade in panel tech.

The camera setup stays the same—a 50MP main sensor, a 2MP secondary lens, and an 8MP selfie camera. The phone is also IP69-rated for dust and water resistance and features Oppo’s Crystal Shield display protection. And if you’re worried about durability, Oppo says it has passed 14 military-grade tests.

Under the hood, the device runs on MediaTek’s Dimensity 6300 processor, paired with up to 12GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 512GB of UFS 2.2 storage. It’s powered by a 5,800mAh battery which sure is smaller than the A5’s 6,500mAh unit but still respectable for a budget phone. And it charges via a 45W adapter, with support for 13.5W of PD charging as well. 

Oppo A5 Vitality Edition Price and Availability

The Oppo A5 Vitality Edition starts at 1,199 yuan ($170) for the 8GB/256GB model, while the 12GB/256GB variant costs 1,399 yuan ($200). The top-tier version (12GB/512GB) is priced at 1,599 yuan ($225). 

The device will go on open sale in China on March 21. Whereas, there’s no word on global availability yet.
