At just 4.9mm thick, the Oppo R5 is built around slimness first. That's still one of the thinnest profiles you'll find on any phone, even years after release. The 5.2-inch AMOLED screen runs at full HD resolution with 423 ppi, so text and images stay sharp despite the compact body. Inside, a Snapdragon 615 chipset with 2GB RAM and 16GB storage handles Android 4.4.4 KitKat, enough for everyday tasks though not built for heavy multitasking.

The 13MP rear camera shoots up to 4128 x 3096 pixels and records 1080p video at 60fps, with a 5MP front camera for basic selfies. Oppo R5 price in Malaysia starts from RM1049, and it comes in Silver or Gold.

Battery capacity sits at 2000mAh, which is modest given the screen size, a tradeoff that comes with chasing such a thin design. Connectivity covers LTE, dual-band Wi-Fi and GPS with GLONASS, rounding out a phone that prioritizes form over raw endurance.
