This is a follow up review which on AX5, which is really an AX5S
I gave this phone a 3 because of the bad tinny music sound. However I am getting used to the rather tinny sound so I have upgraded the phone to 4 because the rest of the phone is working out really well. Very impressed with it, just a pity about the speaker.

OPPO A5Xs not to be confused with the older A5X
I was looking for a smart phone to replace my Samsung Galaxy S5 but didn't want to pay the exorbitant prices for the Apple iPhone and the Samsung Galaxy S series phones. I also wanted one that had a long battery life. Now, whilst my Samsung S5 in smart phone terms is a very old model I only purchased that phone brand new back in January 2017 when they were running out that model at very good prices. I paid $379 for it. At that time I was replacing an Apple iPhone 4s which was my very first smart phone purchase in 2011 and I paid about $1,000 fo...Read more
r it. Whilst I was very happy with my original iPhone and 6 years service out of it the one thing I hated about Apple products was they and a lot of the app developers stop supporting the IOS after a few years. That really irked me because it was kind of like a forced blackmail to upgrade to their latest phone and I will never be held ransom to the Apple ideology that everybody must have their latest technology. So to make a short story long in 2017 I decided to give the Samsung Galaxy S5 a go and to say that I was disappointed was an understatement. I persevered with this phone for 3 years and the last 12 months were agony. In comparison to the intuitive Apple IOS the Android operating system in my opinion was rubbish. It was moderately ok for the first 12 months but pretty soon the battery performance degraded to nothing. I factory reset my phone and purchased a new battery but that didn't make any difference and ended up having to buy a portable power bank to keep it charged and usable. So roll on to Xmas 2022 and I've had enough of the Samsung and really had no choice but to put my hands in my pocket and buy a new phone. I had considered a number of models including the revamped old style basic Nokia's which back in the day used to have a standby time of 1-2 weeks, however, decided against as I a have got used to the features of a smartphone. As I said I flat out refuse to pay $1,000 or even over $500 for a phone and I like to buy my phones outright using a pre-paid sim rather than a post paid plan. I don't want to be locked in to an overpriced phone contract for 2 years. So after quite a bit of internet research and a bit of looking in the various stores, some word of mouth from one of my friends, my main criteria being a low priced smartphone with excellent battery time I settled on an OPPO A5Xs. Please don't confuse this with the A5X. Whilst it is the same series and a very similar phone the A5Xs is the newest model.
Purchased in December 2021 at JB Hi-Fi Retail Stores for $215.00.
