Despite being the slimmest phone worldwide, the Oppo R5 still features a 2000mAH battery, which can be charged very quick with VOOC mini rapid charge. Also it has TDD/FDD LTE support. The Oppo R5 is missing a 3.5mm audio jack, so you will have to use the microUSB to audio converter, which comes out of the box.

Like all OPPO phones, the OPPO R5 is a bit pricey at USD 499(1642RM) and we dont have the exact launch date yet.
