Both the variants will still be called the Pro but will have different chipsets inside. Sounds like Samsung, right?

The teasers on Chinese social media have confirmed the Find X5 Pro to have both a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 version, and a Dimensity 9000 variant. The main model will use the Snapdragon chip while the one using the Dimensity 9000 will be more of a toned-down version, called the Oppo Find X5 Pro Dimensity Edition.

Other than the Find X5 Pro, Oppo is also going to release a couple of accessories. The Oppo Enco X2 will be unveiled here as the successor to last year's Oppo Enco X. The teasers confirm Oppo continuing t partner with Dynaudio for the tuning.

On the other hand, Oppo is also launching the Oppo Watch 2 on February 24/ The Watch 2 has a flatter design this year, more akin to the concept renders of the Apple Watch Series 7. It remains to be seen whether the Watch 2 will rely on Google's Wear OS platform, which has seen some activity lately after Samsung's Galaxy Watch 4 launch. The watch band has a translucent finish while the display is dominated by an edge-to-edge watch face, thereby suggesting very narrow bezels.
