Analysing AI technology


Phone's AI technology is an artificial intelligence technology that self-learns and can recognise the difference between various skin tones, types, gender and ages of all subjects in the images. OPPO F5 entails facial recognition feature that captures more than 200 positioning spots, which accentuates your facial features while clicking a selfie.

OPPO has zeroed down on 50+ scenes in which customers usually take a selfie. This helped them to analyse the influence of artificial intelligence on a particular face under a different light, temperature and colour tone.  They wanted lighting to be perfect on the face, by keeping the details intact.

OPPO F5’s AI Beauty technology enables customised beautification enhancements for each face identified in a group selfie. Whether it’s performing different blemish reduction levels on a person or removing black circles, F5 does it all by keeping the details intact and sustaining the colours of an image.

Analysing the camera

OPPO F5’s 20MP front camera with an ultra-sensitive F2.0 aperture and 1/2.8 sensor camera, captures human beauty in all forms and brings out your photogenic best.  Features allow the camera to produce better images with less noise under low light conditions. Phones front camera “Portrait” mode applies the Bokeh effect to the background, making you the focus of a selfie shot.  Its 16MP rear camera is excellent for all day shots and performs brilliantly for more precise shots in darker settings as well.
