Oppo’s Samsung Galaxy S22 rival has its launch date – and name – confirmed

The first few months of each year see most Android phone brands launch their flagship handsets, and following on from the Samsung Galaxy S22, and getting in ahead of the Xiaomi 12, OnePlus 10 and Realme GT 2, is Oppo's device.

This is the Oppo Find X5 – not the Find X4, despite this phone being a successor to the Find X3 series. It seems that Oppo has done what several Chinese phone companies have done, in skipping the number ‘4' which is unlucky in the country, even though the brand released the Oppo Reno 4 with the same number.
