OPPO Find 5 gets major firmware update

Lucky owners of the OPPO Find 5 are receiving over the air updates to the firmware on their handsets, taking them to X909EN_130719 (was X909EN_13_130514).

It’s only an 83MB download, but it comes with a massive changelog which includes dedications to users who’ve made suggestions or bug reports. This is a really nice touch and another example of their pledge to making owning an OPPO an interactive experience with the Chinese manufacturer. Take a gander below for all the updates.
