The new Oppo Neo 5 smartphone which was unveiled to the world by the Chinese company only last week has wasted no time in entering India, and is available now for Rs 9990. Not to be confused with last year’s handset of the same name, this fresh device kicks in upgraded specifications of course.
The 3G supporting Oppo Neo 5 kicks in a 4.5-inch IPS panel with Dragon Trail Glass protection, which sports a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels. This results in a pixel density count of 219ppi. That’s not a great prospect for buyers who can get 720p HD display-equipped smartphones for lesser amounts these days.
This Oppo smartphone is fueled by a 1.3GHz quad core MediaTek MT6582 processor which is accompanied in its operations by a Mali-400MP2 GPU and a 1GB of RAM. The 2014 model of this handset too featured the same amount of memory, but its processor was the then-popular quad core Snapdragon 400 unit.

– Display: 4.5-inch IPS, 480 x 854 pixels (219ppi)

A new Neo 5S handset too was unveiled by the company alongside the Oppo Neo 5 last week, but it has decided to give India a miss for now.
