HUAWEI MatePad 12 X (2026) Review
Oppo made a surprise announcement here in Singapore when it unveiled the world’s thinnest smartphone to date, the Oppo R5. The handset is just 4.85mm thin with a frame of just 4mm.
The metal alloy frame of the Oppo R5 is just 4mm but the camera protrudes a bit making the official form factor to 4.85mm. Oppo made sure that despite the thin frame, it is also the toughest body. Each frame is hand-polished by craftsmen to make the edge finish smoother and almost perfect.

Get the nexus5 instead! a year older but better spec’d and cheaper.

Agree! Or spend a few thousand more and get the upcoming Nexus 6. The mid-tier processor of the R5 is a major turn-off.

finally oppo knows how to put a reasonable price tag on their device. I’ll wait for the reviews on this one, quite an interesting phone. Just a question thou, why is that the phone on the first photo differs with the rest?

whats with this thinnest thing trend about mobile phones? so one accidentally sits or at least put a pressure on that kind of phone, will it just bend or even crack just like a biscuit? hahaha! for me as long as you can still hold it properly w/ your hand should be fine,its not like youll hold a phone as thick as a hollow block or a brick anyways…. just my 2 cents anyway! peace!
