The OPPO F5 Youth is a more affordable alternative for AI Beautification | News and Reviews
The follow up for the massively successful OPPO F5 is finally here. The OPPO F5 Youth carries over most of what fans loved about its bigger brother such as a 6.0-inch 2160 x 1080 display, an octa-core SoC at 2.5GHz, and Android 7.1 Nougat with ColorOS 3.2 at a much lower cost.
Since OPPO is keeping most of the specifications the same, the cost-cutting has to come from somewhere. In this case, the OPPO F5 Youth has a slight lower megapixel count on both front and rear cameras. The rear camera now has a megapixel count of 13MP with an aperture f/2.2 with autofocus while the front camera is a 16MP camera and an aperture of f/2.0 with OPPO’s trademark AI beautification.
As for processing power, the OPPO F5 Youth still has the MediaTek MT6763 octa-core SoC with a clock speed of 2.5GHz although the RAM has been downgraded to 3GB instead of 4GB from the OPPO F5. Here are the specifications of the OPPO F5 Youth:
