with lim reviews
00:03
                         so in today's video you're going to be
00:04
checking out two very cool devices here
00:06
uh that i really love and i've been
00:08
using for quite a bit now
00:10
definitely almost a month now they are
00:12
the oppo f5x3 pro as well as the samsung
00:15
s21
00:16
ultra 5g bear in mind that both devices
00:18
here are 5g and i'm just using this
00:20
angle a little bit so that you can feel
00:22
like you are actually the one
00:24
checking out these devices right here
00:26
all right so usually when you think of
00:28
like the top
00:28
flagship device you'll always be
00:30
thinking about the s21 ultra
00:32
it's like the de facto one so in this
00:34
video we're going to be checking if the
00:35
oppo f5x3 pro can actually
00:38
bring that batter up to the s21 ultra so
00:41
before i do that let me just give you a
00:42
brief introduction of both
00:44
devices right here the oppo f5x3 pro is
00:46
retailing in malaysia for about
00:49
rm4299 whereas the
00:51
samsung s21 ultra right here is
00:53
retaining four five
00:54
two nine nine so that's a massive 1000
00:57
ringgit difference
00:58
but what is it all about i'm not in this
01:01
video here to bash either one of these
01:02
brands but rather to tell you
01:04
what will you be able to get from the
01:06
oppo finance 3 pro
01:07
as well as the more expensive s21 ultra
01:11
one thing you need to bear in mind is
01:12
that both devices here are coming in at
01:14
pretty similar specs and what i mean by
01:16
that is both devices have 12 gigabytes
01:18
of ram
01:19
and 256 gigabytes of internal memory all
01:22
right we're going to put those devices
01:23
down for a minute and check out their
01:24
boxes
01:25
so naturally the s21 box comes in this
01:28
really tiny box here
01:29
and although you're paying such a hefty
01:31
price you only get the device in the box
01:33
whereas for the oppo f5x3 pro you get a
01:36
pretty decent box here
01:38
design is not that important but what is
01:40
important is what came in the box
01:41
and actually my favorite item that came
01:43
in the box here was this
01:45
uh 65 watt charging so it offers very
01:47
very fast charging
01:48
uh for the oppo 5x3 pro right here so
01:52
definitely
01:52
a very good thing there apart from that
01:54
it also comes with this additional
01:56
case which offers a pretty good
01:58
protection for the device
01:59
so yeah that's what you can expect if
02:01
you buy either one of these devices
02:02
right here
02:03
tiny box versus large box all right so
02:05
we're going to deep dive into these
02:06
devices for now
02:07
let's check out the build quality and
02:09
design so you might already be very
02:11
familiar with the oppo f5x3 pro right
02:13
here
02:14
comparing it to the s21 ultra naturally
02:17
this is a much more slimmer and smaller
02:20
form factor device
02:21
and i also felt that it is much lighter
02:23
compared to the
02:24
s21 ultra right here so the s71 ultra of
02:27
course comes with a bigger battery so
02:29
we'll talk a little bit about that
02:30
in terms of the design wise let's
02:31
continue here with the oppo phone x3 is
02:33
a very slim profile
02:35
i went with this matte blue version
02:36
which feels absolutely smooth to the
02:38
touch
02:39
it feels very premium guys and it feels
02:41
absolutely fine
02:42
in my hand alright so on to the s21
02:45
ultra on the other hand this is a pretty
02:46
bulky device
02:48
obviously again because i said that it
02:49
did come with that
02:51
huge bigger battery at the back here it
02:53
also comes with this
02:54
matte back and it looks really stealthy
02:57
like
02:58
this fully black device here looks
02:59
awesome i really love the look on this
03:01
device as well but
03:03
if you just compare it side by side bear
03:04
in mind that the s21 ultra is such a
03:06
bigger
03:07
device compared to the oppo f5x3 pro
03:09
right here so
03:10
it's really up to you do you prefer a
03:12
slimmer form factor or you're pretty
03:14
much
03:14
okay with a huge device like the s21
03:17
ultra on this side here
03:19
all right so we're going to flip this
03:20
device to the front and check out those
03:22
displays because we have very excellent
03:24
displays
03:24
for both devices right here so they're
03:26
both rocking
03:28
amoled panels they're both 1440p we also
03:31
have high refresh rates on both devices
03:33
right here so excellent
03:34
displays over here there's nothing to
03:36
complain about that though i do want to
03:38
point out that the display on the
03:40
s21 ultra did felt a little bit brighter
03:43
compared to my oppo
03:44
right here on my left and what i do need
03:46
to point out here although
03:47
is the the camera notch at the top there
03:49
so uh for the oppo the approach is that
03:51
they have this camera cut out at the top
03:53
left corner
03:54
whereas for the samsung s21 ultra it is
03:57
dead
03:57
center so it depends on which one you
03:59
prefer let me know down in the comment
04:01
section below
04:02
all right next thing i'm going to talk
04:03
about here very quickly is the software
04:05
that it operates on
04:06
so for the oppo we have this color os
04:09
based on android 11
04:11
and it's actually getting very
04:13
lightweight and it feels
04:14
very nice to use actually so i've been
04:16
using it for quite a bit now
04:18
and it comes with a couple of features
04:20
with the
04:21
color os right here and one thing i must
04:23
note here is that
04:24
it does feel very snappy compared to
04:27
colorways from
04:28
previous versions so very happy with
04:30
what we're having right here
04:31
everything is very smooth and very nice
04:33
to use if you're not used to it you
04:35
might actually take a little while to
04:37
get used to everything
04:38
and finding out where your menus are and
04:40
what are the extra features that you can
04:41
get
04:42
from color os but otherwise this is a
04:44
pretty lightweight os right here and you
04:45
don't
04:46
actually get a lot of bloat on this
04:48
device right here
04:49
so moving on to the samsung this is
04:51
where you have your one ui
04:53
so i'm pretty sure a lot of you guys are
04:54
actually very familiar with how this
04:56
works because samsung has been added for
04:58
a pretty long time now
04:59
it is a very familiar kind of skin on
05:01
top of that android 11.
05:03
all right next thing we're going to talk
05:04
about here is the performance so
05:05
performance wise both devices are
05:07
actually rocking very strong processors
05:09
uh it's a bit different here though
05:10
because in malaysia our oppo f5x3 pro
05:13
here still rocks the snapdragon 888 and
05:15
i'm just going to open that
05:16
big bench score for a moment right there
05:19
whereas our samsung s21 ultra here is
05:21
actually rocking the exynos processor
05:23
so just in terms of benchmark scores
05:25
this is the kind of scores that you can
05:26
see
05:26
from both devices right here obviously
05:29
the snapdragon outperforms the
05:31
exynos processor just in terms of
05:33
numbers right here
05:34
but again that's not to say that the
05:36
samsung device here is not a good device
05:38
and it's slow or anything like that
05:39
in fact on the contrary they're both
05:41
actually very fast and very snappy
05:43
launching apps are actually very quick
05:45
they're almost equally fast as you can
05:47
see right here
05:48
but yeah naturally this is what you kind
05:50
of expect with the
05:52
slight difference there just take a look
05:54
at that quick one right here let me just
05:56
show that for you
05:57
okay let's go back and let's just try
05:58
out your phone for example
06:00
so you can go to chrome speed wise on
06:03
the daily basis
06:04
they're both very similar you can't
06:06
really tell which is the faster one over
06:08
the other
06:08
and gaming is also the same story right
06:10
here you can definitely game very well
06:12
on both devices
06:13
but yeah all right next thing i want to
06:15
talk about here is the cameras at the
06:17
back so
06:18
we have a very different set of setups
06:20
here and i think
06:21
this is probably the main
06:22
differentiating factor uh for both
06:24
devices right here so in terms of
06:25
numbers the
06:26
oppo device right here comes with a 15
06:28
megapixel main a 50 megapixel wide
06:30
and a 13 megapixel dev sensor combined
06:33
with
06:34
a 3 megapixel microscope moving on to
06:37
the s21 ultra we do have a 108 megapixel
06:39
main
06:40
we also have a 12 megapixel ultra wide a
06:42
10 megapixel depth
06:43
and a 10 megapixel periscope alright so
06:45
the main point
06:46
right here is the key takeout is that on
06:49
the s21 ultra you do get a higher
06:51
resolution
06:52
main sensor but this oppo f5x3 pro has a
06:55
higher resolution ultrawide sensor
06:58
apart from that this device right here
06:59
the s21 comes with that optical zoom
07:02
and that periscope zoom that really
07:03
allows you to see very very far away
07:05
whereas this guy the oppo on the other
07:07
hand here comes with a microscope which
07:09
allows you to zoom in on
07:10
stuff that are really really tiny now
07:12
let's take a look at some sample shots
07:14
notice that both looks amazing in terms
07:16
of quality and clarity
07:18
but the images taken on oppo has a
07:20
slightly more saturated
07:21
and warmer tone whereas samsung is
07:24
taking a cooler approach
07:26
also notice that oppo has increased the
07:28
shadows in their image processing
07:30
and that allows you to see a generally
07:32
slightly brighter image compared to
07:34
samsung
07:35
moving on to night mode again we can see
07:37
that oppo
07:38
is still taking that warmer approach but
07:40
this time it does not boost the
07:42
brightness at all that much images look
07:44
sufficiently bright
07:45
and more importantly with minimal noise
07:48
on the other hand
07:49
samsung is doing a little more to
07:51
brighten the image here and again
07:52
keeps its cooler approach to conclude
07:55
i'd say that
07:56
images taken on both devices here are
07:58
amazing but it depends on which approach
08:00
you prefer
08:01
from either oppo or samsung all right uh
08:04
enough about the cameras let's talk very
08:05
quickly about the battery so
08:07
like i said the oppo phone x3 here is
08:09
slimmer so it comes with a 4500mah
08:11
battery
08:12
whereas the samsung s21 ultra here comes
08:14
with a thicker 5000 milliamp hour
08:16
battery so again um this s21 here will
08:19
last you a little bit longer in terms of
08:21
battery life
08:22
but you do get that faster charger in
08:24
the box
08:25
for the oppo right here so you can
08:26
always charge that up fairly quickly so
08:28
if again if i were to choose between
08:30
getting a faster charger or having a
08:32
little bit more juice i would go with
08:34
the one with the faster charger and
08:36
faster charging as well
08:38
last but not least a couple of stuff
08:39
that we do have in common here is the
08:41
stereo speakers so both devices have
08:43
superior speakers that are great
08:45
uh in terms of headphone jacks you can
08:46
take a look for yourself they're both
08:48
kind of missing
08:49
on both the oppo as well as the samsung
08:52
s21 ultra right there
08:54
all right guys i think that's pretty
08:56
much it for my comparison between the
08:58
oppo phone x3 and the samsung s21 so my
09:00
conclusion
09:01
is pretty straightforward between these
09:03
two devices
09:04
only if you're looking for something
09:06
that is a bit more affordable
09:08
slimmer form factor comes with a set of
09:10
awesome cameras
09:12
and of course if you like that toy of a
09:14
microscope then you definitely want to
09:16
go for the oppo find x3 pro right here
09:18
however if you want a slightly larger
09:20
battery
09:21
an awesome set of cameras as well as the
09:24
very very good
09:25
periscope kind of lens right here to
09:27
zoom in far away
09:28
and of course you need to have that
09:30
additional 1000 ringgit budget
09:32
then you might actually check out the
09:34
samsung s21 ultra right there
09:36
but in my opinion i'm going to go for
09:38
the oppo f5x3 pro
09:39
mainly for a couple of reasons first
09:41
thing up i prefer the slimmer form
09:42
factor
09:43
it doesn't feel so heavy in my pocket
09:45
second i really need that charger and
09:47
thirdly
09:48
the cameras the main sensors right here
