OPPO has just launched the third variant of its newest series of selfie smartphones, and it’s aptly called the F5 6GB with, well, 6GB of RAM in tow.
We have seen no cosmetic changes on the device’s design except for one thing: color. The 6GB variant of the OPPO F5 possesses a polycarbonate back with a luxurious red color finish to make it look metallic, and two thin lines colored in a silver hue are situated at the top and bottom areas.
The same chrome accent also runs on all sides of the device to identify the break between the red back and the black front. It is also worth noting that the F5 6GB is only available in this color, whereas the F5 is offered in black and gold color variants.
The only difference, hardware-wise, is the upgraded RAM and internal storage (now 64GB) while keeping most of the specifications the same. Here are the benchmark scores of the device, compared side by side with the original variant:
| OPPO F5 | OPPO F5 6GB | |
|---|---|---|
| AnTuTu | 64,413 | 67,620 |
| Vellamo | 2,208 (Multicore), 1,583 (Metal), 2,743 (Chrome) | 2,342 (Multicore), 1,806 (Metal), 2,797 (Chrome) |
| PCMark | 4,036 (Work 1.0) 3,122 (Storage 1.0) | 4,759 (Work 1.0) 5,434 (Storage 1.0) |
| 3DMark | 69 (Sling Shot Extreme 1.0) | 69 (SlingShot Extreme 1.0) |
| AndroBench | 289.18 MB/s (Read) 105.15 MB/s (Write) | 291.63MB/s (Read) 212.53 MB/s (Write) |
Performance is the same based on the scores but heavy multitaskers will enjoy the extra RAM.
With the F3 getting a deep price cut this past week, the F5 6GB replaces it in the
Php21,990 offering and will be available by December 9, which is Php6,000 more than the original F5 which is priced at Php15,990.
