When OPPO drops a new Find X flagship, you know it’s going to be a statement. And the freshly launched Find X9 and Find X9 Pro are exactly that. Statement phones with top specs.
I’ve seen a lot of smartphones come and go, but the X9 Series is one of those rare launches that hits every mark: bonkers battery, absurd camera hardware, sleek design, and a UI that actually feels clever. Here’s the deep dive.
CAMERA: 200MP Hasselblad Telephoto. Yes, Really.
Let’s start with the showstopper. The Find X9 Pro has a 200MP Hasselblad telephoto camera. This thing is packing a 1/1.56″ sensor and an f/2.1 aperture, which means it pulls in stacks of light, making it a beast for low-light zoom and macro shots (yep, the focus goes as close as 10cm).
Couple that with OPPO’s Active Optical Alignment and you get a 15% resolution boost from the hardware alone. Add in the new LUMO Image Engine (read: smarter processing with less CPU and battery drain), and suddenly your phone’s snapping shots that belong in a gallery.
For the photography nerds: Real-Time Triple Exposure is also here, alongside industry-first 4K Motion Photos and full-res shooting at 50MP+ without killing your storage or battery.
CONCERTS, ZOOM & CINEMA MODE
This phone was made for concerts. OPPO’s Super Zoom algorithm gets you up to 120x zoom, and the Find X9 Pro can do lossless zoom up to 13.2x thanks to intelligent cropping from the 200MP sensor. It’s wild.
Video? You’re getting 4K 120fps Dolby Vision HDR, plus LOG recording and ACES certification—a dream for content creators who want full control in post.
There’s even a Hasselblad Teleconverter accessory available, turning this into a 10x optical zoom rig with 200x digital zoom.
DESIGN: SLIM, TOUGH, GORGEOUS
The Find X9 is 7.99mm thin and still manages to squeeze in a 7025mAh battery (7500mAh in the Pro). That makes this the most battery-rich flagship OPPO has ever built. How? OPPO’s third-gen Silicon-Carbon battery tech and some space-age carbon material that keeps things cool and dense.
Charging is no joke either: 80W SUPERVOOC wired, 50W wireless, and 10W reverse wireless.
Finish-wise, you get Titanium Grey or Space Black in the X9, and Silk White or Titanium Charcoal for the Pro—all with matte aluminium frames and ultra-durable IP66/IP68/IP69 water/dust resistance.
POWER & PERFORMANCE
The X9 Series is powered by MediaTek’s Dimensity 9500 chip, built on TSMC’s third-gen 3nm process. It’s all big cores, all power, with 32% better performance and 55% less peak power draw.
You’ve also got:
- G1 Ultra GPU: +33% graphics performance
- MediaTek NPU 990: +2x AI performance, +56% efficiency
- Custom OPPO Trinity Engine: predicts and manages power usage down to the chip level
This all adds up to seamless multitasking, lag-free gaming, and zero overheating thanks to custom vapour chambers.
COLOROS 16: THE SMART UI THAT ACTUALLY GETS YOU
Running on Android, OPPO’s ColorOS 16 brings a suite of AI tools that feel genuinely useful:
- AI Mind Space: new Snap Key lets you grab on-screen content instantly
- AI Recorder: auto titles and summaries
- AI Portrait Glow: perfect low-light selfies
- O+ Connect: multitask across Mac, Windows, and phone simultaneously
You can even screen mirror five apps at once, using your mouse and keyboard. Your workday just got turbo-charged.
SHOULD YOU BUY IT?
If you want a phone that:
- Shoots like a DSLR
- Lasts like a power bank
- Looks like a flagship
- Works like a desktop replacement
Then yes, the OPPO Find X9 Series is a no-brainer. It’s feature-rich, future-proofed, and genuinely exciting.
