OnePlus Ace 5 Pro Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos

OnePlus Ace 5 Pro - the right changes to the line

The Chinese company OnePlus strives not only to catch up, but also to overtake the leaders. The Ace line of smartphones plays a significant role in this race for the manufacturer, offering almost flagship functionality for reasonable money. The hero of today's review offers an even higher level of performance and photo capabilities, thanks to which it easily claims the title of bestseller.

The appearance of the new product has changed in comparison with its predecessor. The photo module block is designed differently, does not protrude from the glass panel so much, the metal edging has not disappeared anywhere, the AMOLED panel with a diagonal of 6.78 inches has extremely thin frames and a built-in fingerprint scanner. The AMOLED display received increased brightness up to 4500 nits, did not lose the clarity of the picture (resolution of 2780x1264 pixels), its smoothness (120-Hz refresh rate). The color rendering is natural, the oleophobic coating is effective, it is very difficult to highlight any shortcomings of the screen.

The technical characteristics are the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite processor (Gen 4), 12GB/16GB of RAM and the Adreno 830 video adapter. This is an incomparable bundle by any parameters. The AnTuTu benchmark consistently produces more than three million points, the Android 15 interface is incredibly smooth and responsive. Launching applications takes a few fractions of a second. Of course, the most demanding gamers will be pleased with the chipset. Maximum graphics settings and a frame rate of more than 60FPS will be companions even for resource-intensive Genshin Impact, Fortnite and Zenless Zone Zero. The permanent memory is allocated 256/512/1024GB without the possibility of expansion. Autonomy reaches an impressive 9-10 hours of active screen time thanks to a 6100 mAh battery (100 W charger).

The main photo modules are a 50-megapixel Sony IMX906 sensor with hybrid stabilization, an 8-megapixel wide-angle module and a 2-megapixel macro camera. The last two photo sensors are definitely a weak link, but the main photo module perfectly handles even evening photos and videos, giving them the necessary detail and eliminating noise. The 16-megapixel selfie camera does not fall flat on its face. The stereo speakers are characterized by a volume of almost 90 decibels and at the same time a balanced frequency response. It could not do without support for 5G networks, contactless payments NFC. But it is easy to find disadvantages in the gadget. Thus, there is no FDD-LTE B7, which is important for the operation of 4G on the international market, there is no wireless charging and full moisture protection according to IP68 standards. But the attractive price and abundance of various advantages level out the shortcomings and allow us to recommend the device for purchase.
