Best Cases & Screen Protectors for OPPO A5 5G (2026 Guide)
Share
Picked up an OPPO A5 5G and want to keep it looking fresh from day one? In this 2026 guide, we’ll help you confirm your exact model, then walk you through choosing the right case and screen protector with clear, simple explanations. All examples are based on accessories available at MEZON, so you can quickly find protection that suits your phone and your style.
1. Make sure you have the right OPPO A5 5G model
Before you choose a case or screen protector, it’s smart to confirm the exact model you have – even small changes in size, cut-outs or camera layout can affect fit.
To check your OPPO model:
- Open the Settings app.
- Scroll down and tap About device (on some phones this may be called About phone).
- Look for Device name or Model number.
- Confirm it says OPPO A5 5G (often shown as CPH2735 on the Australian model).
If it matches, you’re in the right place and this guide applies to your phone.
2. OPPO A5 5G at a glance
The OPPO A5 5G sits in OPPO’s A Series as an everyday 5G phone focused on a smooth display and long battery life. Those features are great for daily use – and they also mean it’s worth protecting the screen and corners early.
Key details that matter for cases & screen protectors:
- Large display: 6.67-inch LCD screen with HD+ 1604 × 720 resolution and up to 120 Hz refresh rate, so there’s plenty of front glass to keep protected.
- Overall size & weight: About 165.71 × 76.24 × 7.99 mm and 194 g – a tall, slim phone that feels better (and safer) with extra grip.
- Big battery + fast charging: 6,000 mAh (typical) battery with 45W SUPERVOOC™ charging – great for all-day use, but extra weight makes drop protection more important.
- Camera bump: A 50 MP main camera setup means there’s still a raised module on the back, so a case with a slightly raised camera lip helps reduce scuffs on tables and benches.
- Screen sensor note: OPPO notes the light sensor is positioned at the top of the screen, so very dark/coloured protectors with poor light transmission may affect normal use – clear films and glass are the safest choice.
Because the OPPO A5 5G has a large display and a raised camera area, pairing a good-fitting case with the right screen protector is one of the easiest ways to keep it looking newer for longer.
3. Why the right case & screen protector matter
Your OPPO A5 5G is built for everyday life – which also means it’s exposed to everyday knocks, pockets, bags and accidental drops. A case and screen protector work together to keep it protected without making it feel bulky.
Drop & scratch protection
Even careful owners bump their phone on desks, drop it from the couch, or slip it into a bag with keys and cards. A good case helps absorb shock, while a quality screen protector takes the scratches so your actual display doesn’t.
Grip & comfort
Smooth phone finishes can feel slippery, especially on tiles, benches or when using one-handed. A silicone gel case adds soft, grippy edges that make the phone easier to hold and less likely to slide off flat surfaces.
Screen & camera protection
The display and rear camera module are the most annoying (and often costly) parts to damage. A screen protector helps prevent cracks and chips on the front, while a slightly raised case edge around the camera and screen helps keep them lifted away from rough surfaces.
Resale value & longevity
Keeping the screen clean and the corners unchipped makes a big difference if you ever trade in or sell your phone. Protection from day one is the simplest way to keep it looking “like new” for longer.
Now let’s look at the case and screen protector options that work best for the OPPO A5 5G.
4. Case options for OPPO A5 5G
A good case should protect your OPPO A5 5G without making it feel chunky or hiding everything you like about the phone. At MEZON, we focus on slim, flexible silicone gel cases that balance protection, grip and everyday comfort.
4.1. Clear silicone gel case
A clear silicone gel case is a transparent, flexible cover that lets the original look of your OPPO A5 5G show through. It wraps around the edges and corners, adding a soft buffer between your phone and daily bumps.
Why you’ll like it
- Shows off the phone: Ideal if you like the original colour and finish and don’t want to cover it up.
- Everyday protection: Helps cushion minor drops and defends against scratches from keys, bags and desks.
- Comfortable grip: Soft, slightly grippy surface that feels secure in your hand and less likely to slide on smooth surfaces.
- Pocket-friendly: Slim profile that still slips easily into pockets and small bags.
This is a great choice if you want a clean, minimal look with real protection – as close to “naked” as possible, with an extra layer of safety.

4.2. Black silicone gel case
A black silicone gel case gives your OPPO A5 5G a more refined, uniform look while keeping the same flexible, shock-absorbing protection. It’s smooth, soft to the touch and designed for daily use.
Why you’ll like it
- Sleek, understated style: Matte (or semi-matte) black instantly makes the phone look classic and versatile.
- Hides marks: Better at disguising fingerprints, smudges and small scuffs compared with clear cases.
- Protected yet flexible: The impact-absorbing gel material helps cushion drops and protect edges and corners.
- Works with any colour phone: Creates a clean, uniform look no matter which finish your OPPO comes in.
Choose the black silicone gel case if you prefer a low-key, timeless look and don’t mind covering the original colour for a more uniform finish.

5. Screen protector options for OPPO A5 5G
The display is the part of your OPPO A5 5G you interact with all day – and it’s the easiest part to scratch. At MEZON, we offer two main families of screen protectors:
- Film protectors – thin, flexible layers that are great for light everyday protection and different surface finishes.
- Tempered glass protectors – harder, thicker glass for stronger impact resistance and that familiar “glass-on-glass” feel.
Both types are cut specifically for the OPPO A5 5G, so you can choose based on how you use your phone and how you like the screen to feel.
5.1. Film screen protectors
Film screen protectors are best if you prefer a super slim, almost bare-screen feel with the option to choose between clear or matte finishes. They’re flexible, lightweight and ideal if you mainly want to prevent scratches rather than heavy impact damage.
5.1.1. Hydrogel film
Hydrogel film is a soft, flexible film with a self-healing surface.
- Self-healing surface: Minor marks and fine scratches can gradually fade over time.
- Highly flexible: Wraps more easily over slight curves and edges.
- Natural glide: Smooth feel under the finger, with a slim profile that keeps the phone feeling close to its original.
Choose hydrogel film if you want thin, almost invisible protection with a little extra forgiveness for light scratches.

5.1.2. Clear TPU film
Clear TPU film is the classic, transparent protector that adds a sacrificial layer on top of your display.
- Crystal-clear look: Keeps colours, sharpness and brightness as close as possible to the original screen.
- Scratch shield: Helps prevent micro-scratches from daily use, bags, pockets and dust.
- Ultra-thin: Minimal added thickness, ideal if you don’t like the feel of glass protectors.
This is a great option if you mainly want to avoid fine scratches and keep the screen looking clean without changing its appearance.

5.1.3. Anti-glare matte TPU film
Anti-glare matte TPU film adds a soft, matte finish to the display.
- Reduced reflections: Helps cut down glare from sunlight and bright indoor lighting.
- Fewer visible fingerprints: Smudges and fingerprints tend to show less on a matte surface.
- Paper-like texture: Slightly more texture under the finger, which some people find nicer for scrolling or gaming.
Pick the matte film if you often use your OPPO A5 5G outdoors or under strong lights, or if you simply prefer a softer, less glossy look.

5.2. Tempered glass screen protectors
Tempered glass protectors are thicker and harder than film, offering more robust protection against drops and direct impacts. They feel like an extra layer of glass on top of your display, which many people find the most natural.
5.2.1. Case-friendly tempered glass (no black border)
Case-friendly tempered glass is cut a little smaller than the full front of the phone, leaving a tiny gap around the edges.
- Designed for cases: That small gap helps prevent your case from pushing against the edges of the glass and lifting it.
- Clean, clear view: No black border, so you see right out to the edges of the display cut-out.
- Stronger impact protection: Helps absorb the force from drops and knocks that would otherwise hit your screen directly.
Choose the case-friendly option if you always use a case and want the safest, most compatible combination with less chance of peeling or lifting.

5.2.2. Full cover tempered glass (with black border)
Full cover tempered glass extends right to the edges of the display area and usually includes a black border around the frame.
- Edge-to-edge look: Covers more of the front, giving a neat, finished appearance.
- Hides tiny gaps: The black border can help disguise small alignment imperfections.
- Great everyday protection: Just like case-friendly glass, it provides solid defence against cracks and chips.
This is ideal if you want the cleanest, edge-to-edge aesthetic and don’t change your case often. Both our case-friendly and full cover tempered glass protectors are designed to work smoothly with MEZON clear and black silicone gel cases for the OPPO A5 5G.

6. Installation tips & common mistakes to avoid
A well-fitted screen protector can last a long time, but installation makes a big difference. A few simple habits can help you avoid dust, bubbles and lifting edges.
6.1. Before you start
- Wash and dry your hands.
- Work in a dust-free environment (a clean table, away from open windows).
- Use the included cleaning kit:
- Wipe the screen with the wet wipe,
- Dry it with the microfibre cloth,
- Use dust-removal stickers to lift any remaining specks.
6.2. For film screen protectors (hydrogel / TPU)
- Peel back a small part of the backing first and align carefully with the edges, camera and speaker cut-outs.
- Apply slowly, smoothing the film down with your fingertips or a clean microfibre cloth as you go, rather than laying it all at once.
- If small bubbles appear, gently push them towards the edges using the cloth or a soft plastic card (like an old bank card) wrapped in the cloth. Very tiny bubbles may settle on their own after a day or two.
6.3. For tempered glass screen protectors
- Do a “dry run” first: place the glass on the screen without removing the protective layer to check alignment and cut-outs.
- When ready, peel off the backing, align the top edge and gently lower the glass from one side, letting it settle onto the screen.
- Most of the adhesive will spread by itself – you can press lightly in the centre to help it bond and push out any remaining small bubbles.
6.4. Common mistakes to avoid
- Rushing the cleaning step: Even tiny dust particles can cause visible bumps or bubbles you can’t remove later.
- Touching the adhesive side: Fingerprints or dust on the sticky side will show through and reduce adhesion.
- Reapplying tempered glass repeatedly: Lifting and re-sticking glass several times can weaken the adhesive and create more bubbles around the edges.
Take an extra minute to prep properly and your new case and screen protector will look cleaner, last longer and protect your OPPO A5 5G much more effectively.

8. FAQ: OPPO A5 5G cases & screen protectors
Is tempered glass better than film for OPPO A5 5G?
It depends on what you need most:
- Tempered glass is better for impact and crack protection – it’s harder, thicker and takes the hit if you drop your phone.
- Film (hydrogel / TPU) is better if you want a very slim layer, self-healing (hydrogel) or a matte, anti-glare finish.
If you’re worried about drops, choose tempered glass. If you care more about feel, finish or ultra-thin protection, film is a great choice.
Will a case-friendly tempered glass protector cover the whole screen?
A case-friendly glass protector is cut slightly smaller than the full front panel, so there’s a tiny gap near the very edge. It still covers the entire active display area, but leaves enough space so your case doesn’t push on the glass and cause lifting.
If you prefer a more edge-to-edge look, choose the full-cover tempered glass instead.
Will a screen protector affect touch sensitivity or fingerprint unlock?
High-quality protectors for the OPPO A5 5G are designed to work with the touchscreen. In some cases you might notice:
- Slightly different feel under your finger (especially with matte film or thicker glass).
- If your phone has touch-sensitivity settings, you can enable them for an even snappier feel with protectors.
The OPPO A5 5G uses a side fingerprint sensor, so a screen protector won’t interfere with fingerprint unlocking.
Can I use a case and screen protector together?
Absolutely – and it’s what we recommend.
A screen protector guards the display against cracks and scratches, while a case protects the corners, back and camera bump and improves grip. MEZON silicone gel cases are designed to work with both our case-friendly and full-cover tempered glass protectors for the OPPO A5 5G.
How often should I replace my screen protector?
Replace your screen protector if:
- It’s cracked, chipped or badly scratched
- The edges are lifting or won’t stay stuck down
- There are deep scratches that bother you when using the phone
- It took a big impact (for tempered glass) – even if the phone survived, the glass may be weakened
Film protectors may need changing a bit more often than tempered glass, especially if they get marked or cloudy over time.
Do I still need a case if I use tempered glass?
Yes. Tempered glass mainly protects the front screen. A case:
- Cushions corners and edges in a drop
- Protects the back panel and camera bump
- Improves grip so you’re less likely to drop the phone in the first place
For full protection, we recommend using both a case and a screen protector.
How do I choose between a clear and a black case?
Think about style and practicality:
- Choose a clear silicone gel case if you want to show off the original OPPO colour and design and keep the look as close as possible to the bare phone.
- Choose a black silicone gel case if you prefer a sleek, uniform look that works with any colour and does a better job of hiding smudges and small marks.
Protection is similar – it mainly comes down to your preferred look.
Will MEZON silicone gel cases affect charging?
MEZON silicone gel cases for the OPPO A5 5G are slim and designed for everyday use, so you can keep the case on while charging.
If you ever notice slower or inconsistent charging, it’s usually due to cable quality, charger output or port debris rather than the case itself. Try a different cable/charger and make sure the USB-C port is clear.
