OPPO has launched the A5 Pro in the UAE, marking a significant advancement in its A-Series lineup. This new smartphone emphasizes durability, advanced AI capabilities, and reliable performance, catering to users who demand a robust device for outdoor adventures, gaming, and entertainment. The A5 Pro boasts AI LinkBoost for enhanced connectivity, AI GameBoost for optimized gaming, flagship-class AI features, and a long-lasting 5,800mAh battery with Flash Charge.
The A5 Pro retains the A Series’ lightweight and ultra-slim design, available in two stylish colours: Mocha Brown and Olive Green. The Mocha Brown variant features a matte texture and is exceptionally sleek at 7.76mm thickness and 194g weight. The Olive Green edition, with a vegan leather finish, offers a premium texture and is slightly thicker and heavier at 7.86mm and 196g. Both colourways exhibit timeless elegance, achieved through advanced manufacturing processes.
A key feature of the A5 Pro is its exceptional durability, including flagship-level water and dust resistance (IP69). This comprehensive protection extends beyond water immersion to include resistance to high-temperature and high-pressure water sprays, as well as dust intrusion. A seamless frame with a microporous PET solution contributes to this enhanced waterproofing. The IP69 rating ensures the phone can withstand various water-related scenarios, from torrential rain to accidental submersion. OPPO’s Splash Touch feature further enhances usability by guaranteeing smooth operation even with a wet or oily screen.
Beyond water and dust resistance, the A5 Pro is engineered to withstand everyday drops and scratches. An upgraded double-tempering glass provides 160% better drop protection than typical double-tempered glass. A high-strength aluminium alloy frame and sponge bionic cushioning protect internal components from impact, similar to a miniature airbag. This rugged build has earned the A5 Pro Military-Grade Shock Resistance certification, having passed fourteen stringent military-standard environmental tests.
Reliable connectivity is another highlight of the A5 Pro. An improved 360° Surround Antenna and AI LinkBoost’s signal-optimizing algorithms ensure consistent network coverage in weak signal areas. An Outdoor Mode optimizes network settings for outdoor work, allocating more resources to work apps and extending screen timeout. The phone also supports glove-friendly operation, facilitating use in various work environments.
The A5 Pro’s performance is driven by the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 Mobile Platform, paired with up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. OPPO’s RAM Expansion feature effectively doubles the RAM for smoother multitasking. ColorOS 15 Lite, powered by OPPO’s Trinity Engine, enhances system fluency and stability. The A5 Pro has passed OPPO’s 48-month Fluency Protection certification, ensuring sustained smooth performance.
AI-enhanced gaming and photography elevate the A5 Pro’s entertainment capabilities. AI GameBoost optimizes frame rates for various games, delivering impressive gaming sessions. A VC Cooling System ensures efficient heat dissipation, keeping the device cool during intense use. The 1,000 nits Ultra Bright Display and Dual Stereo speakers enhance the audio-visual experience.
A 5,800mAh battery provides all-day use, with a 45W SUPERVOOC Flash Charge enabling rapid charging. The camera system, featuring a 50MP Ultra-Clear Main Camera, a 2MP Portrait Camera, and an 8MP Front Camera, is enhanced with AI algorithms, Portrait Mode, and AI Portrait Retouching. The A5 Pro also introduces Livephoto and Underwater Photography features. Flagship AI image-enhancing features, including AI Reflection Remover, AI Unblur, AI Clarity Enhancer, AI Eraser 2.0, and AI Studio, offer creative photo editing options. Dual-View Video allows simultaneous recording from front and rear cameras.
The OPPO A5 Pro 5G is competitively priced with the A5Pro 5G 8+256GB priced at AED 899, while the higher-spec A5Pro 5G 12+256GB is priced at AED 1,049. As a special offer, Oppo will include complimentary headphones worth AED 799 and a 12-month warranty covering waterproofing and screen protection. The A5 Pro redefines expectations for mid-range smartphones, offering durability, performance, and advanced features.
