Camera: Professional-Level Photos from a Smartphone
The Find X9 Pro brings a 200MP periscope telephoto lens co-developed with Hasselblad, delivering 3x optical zoom with remarkable detail. Early tests show 120x hybrid zoom shots that remain clear and sharp.
Oppo’s LUMO Engine and Hasselblad color tuning produce lifelike skin tones and balanced shadows without over-processing.

Battery: Power That Goes Beyond a Day
Oppo has moved past the “all-day battery” idea with this series.
- Find X9: 7,025 mAh
- Find X9 Pro: 7,500 mAh
Users report 10–12 hours of screen-on time with gaming, streaming, and GPS. In one test, the phone stayed at 20% after 48 hours unplugged.
The new silicon-carbon battery provides higher density, better safety, and longer life. Charging is fast too:
- 10W reverse wireless charging
- 80W wired (0–100% in ~35 mins)
- 50W wireless
Performance: Smooth, Cool, and Reliable
The MediaTek Dimensity 9500 processor, built on a 3nm process, delivers a big jump in speed and efficiency:
- 33% faster graphics
- 42% better power management
- Supports hardware-based ray tracing
In early testing, it performs on par with the Snapdragon 8 Elite, maintaining stable temperatures during extended gaming sessions.
Design and Display
The Find X9 series looks premium yet practical:
- 1.15mm ultra-thin bezels
- IP68/IP69 dust and water resistance
- SGS five-star drop protection
The Find X9 measures 6.59 inches and weighs 203g, while the Pro variant offers a 6.78-inch display at under 8.2mm thick. Both screens reach 3,600 nits peak brightness, dropping to 1 nit at night for eye comfort.
Software: Smarter and Smoother with ColorOS 16
Based on Android 16, ColorOS 16 offers:
- Fluid animations comparable to iOS
- AI Portrait Glow for enhanced selfies
- Seamless sync with PC and Mac
- No pre-installed bloatware on global models
Oppo promises four years of OS updates and five years of security patches for both models.

- “Shot a sunset at 100x zoom – still sharp.” – @TechBit
- “Played Honkai for hours, phone stayed cool.” – @GamerXia
