Offering users a choice of models, OPPO has launched its Find X3 series of 5G premium smartphones.  The initial release consists of the Find X3 Pro 5G, Find X3 Neo 5G and Find X3 Lite 5G.  These three models are expected to be available, in the UK, from the 14th of April at the OPPO e-store and a range of carriers and retailers.  With all three models offering 5G connectivity, lets take a look at some of the specifications of each handset model.

Depicted as the crown jewel of the new series, the Find X3 Pro will be available in either lacquered Black or Blue,  With dimensions of 163.6 x 74.0 x 8.26 mm and weighing approximately 193g, the Find X3 Pro has a 6.7 AMOLED screen.  Driving this handset is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chipset with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of ROM as standard.  Dual SIM support allows for the handset to be used for both personal and business communication while the internal 4500 mAh battery, with support for fast charging, means you should always be in contact with others.

The model's visual capture attraction with benefit from the presence of two primary 50MP cameras covering wide angle and ultra wide angle capture using a new-to-market Sony IMX 766 imaging sensor.  This photographic arrangement will capture and display up to one billion colours in a single image.  Incidentally, this possible case of over-kill, is ten times more than the human eye can detect so is it more of a marketing ploy than a must-have feature?  Completing the rear camera set up are a 13MP telephoto camera and a 3MP micro lens.  There is also a 32MP front mounted selfie camera.
