Earlier this week we reported that the MediaTek Dimensity 9000 SoC is expected to launch in the first half of 2022 and will be featured in upcoming Redmi and OPPO devices. Now, a new report has emerged giving a more precise time frame for the SoC launch as well as the first device that is expected to come with the Dimensity 9000 chip.

According to a report by ITHome, MediaTek will be launching their Dimensity 9000 flagship SoC sometime in the month of February-March. OPPO’s upcoming flagship is expected to be the first device to house the new SoC. 

Previous leaks have revealed that OPPO is working on its next flagship dubbed the Find X4 Pro; however, the upcoming flagship might be named the OPPO Find X5 Pro due to number 4 being considered an unlucky number in China

OPPO Find X5 Pro Specifications (rumored)

So far, the rumored specs of the upcoming OPPO Find X5 Pro reveal that the phone will come with a 6.7-inch AMOLED LTPO 2.0 display that offers a Quad HD+ resolution of 1440 x 3216 pixels and a 120Hz refresh rate.

The rear camera setup of the device is fitted with a 50-megapixel Sony IMX766 primary camera with OIS support. It is coupled with a 50-megapixel ultrawide lens and a 13-megapixel tertiary camera. For selfies, the display punch-hole of the X5 Pro will house a 32-megapixel Sony IMX709 camera.

It will be packed with a 5,000mAh battery that supports 80W fast charging and 50W wireless charging. The device is likely to run on the latest Android 12 with ColorOS 12 on top. For security, it will feature Goodix G7 in-screen fingerprint scanner.

Earlier reports state that the  Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC will be powering the device along with OPPO’s MariSilicon X chip. However, if the latest leaks are to be believed, the OPPO X5 Pro might ditch the SD 8 Gen 1 in favor of the upcoming Dimensity 9000 chipset.

The MediaTek Dimensity 9000 SoC adopts the combination of TSMC’s 4nm process + Armv9 architecture and has a high-performance Cortex-X2 super core. The SoC also consists of three Arm Cortex-A710 cores clocked at 2.85GHz and four Arm Cortex-A510 energy-efficient cores. Additionally, the Dimensity 9000 supports LPDDR5X memory.

OPPO is reportedly working on its next-generation Find-series flagship smartphones which are expected to officially launch sometime in February or March next year. Ahead of the announcement from the brand, some details related to the devices have already leaked.

Now, in the latest development, @OnLeaks has shared renders of the upcoming OPPO Find X5 Pro smartphone. This is the same device that was expected to get launched as Find X4 Pro but the company is expected to skip the “4” number. The reason behind this is likely that the number four is considered unlucky in the Chinese culture.

The renders showcase a camera module similar to the one we have already seen on the Find X3 Pro. However, this time, the company seems to be adopting an irregular trapezoidal shape for the camera module instead of square. It still continues the design language with the phone’s back shell smoothly extending to the convex part of the camera module.

One major difference is the phone’s back panel which now has a sandblasted texture instead of the glass design that we saw on the previous generation model.

Coming to the front side, the device will have a punch-hole cutout in the top-left corner of the screen for housing the front-facing camera. The renders show minimal bezels surrounding the display, hinting at a higher screen-to-body ratio. The volume rocker keys are located on the left side frame while the power button is on the right frame.

As for the specifications, based on the leaks so far, the OPPO Find X5 Pro is expected to feature a 6.78-inch Full HD+ display with a screen resolution of 2400 x 1080 pixels. It will come powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset.

In the camera department, there could be a 50-megapixel primary sensor, a 50-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens, and a 13-megapixel telephoto or macro sensor. On the front side, it is likely to house a 32-megapixel snapper.

The phone is said to pack a 5,000mAh battery with fast charging support. Along with the OPPO Find X5 Pro, the company is also expected to launch the OPPO Find X5 which is said to come powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9000 SoC.
