Oppo just launched a trio of devices from its latest flagship series in the European market: it includes Oppo Find X2 Pro, Oppo Find X2 Neo, and Oppo Find X2 Lite. They belong to different price segments ranging from the mid-range one to the top-tier flagship. While it is kinda obvious which device is the best from the trio and which is the inferior one, it is not clear to everyone which one offers the highest value for money and how much it is worth choosing one or another. In this comparison, you will find all the important differences between the handsets from the new global lineup.

Design
With the Oppo Find X2 Neo and the Find X2 Pro, you get a similar form factor, including a punch-hole display and all the camera elements included in the rear camera module for a cleaner design. But with the Oppo Find X2 Pro, you get a more stunning build quality. It comes with unique material as it is available in a Ceramic Black color variant with a ceramic body and one made of vegan leather, while Oppo Find X2 Neo only comes with a glass back and a metal frame like most of the high-end phones out there. Further, Oppo Find X2 Pro is waterproof with the IP68 certification. On the other hand, with a thickness of just 7.7 mm, the Find X2 Neo is the thinnest 5G smartphone. Oppo Find X2 Lite still offers a premium design with a glass back and an aluminum frame, but it lacks a punch-hole display.
Display
Oppo Find X2 Pro packs the most impressive display: it is the only to sport a Quad HD+ resolution, it offers a high 120 Hz refresh rate and a 10 bit panel which can display one billion colors. It also comes with very high brightness (800 nits) and the HDR10+ standard. Right after we got the Oppo Find X2 Neo: it has a lower resolution, but a still high 90 Hz refresh rate. Oppo Find X2 Lite has a display with a standard 60 Hz refresh rate, but it is still a pretty nice AMOLED panel which you should not underestimate.
Hardware/Software
Oppo Find X2 Pro offers way higher performance than Oppo Find X2 Neo and Find X2 Lite thanks to its Snapdragon 865 chipset paired with 12 GB of LPPDR5 RAM and up to 512 GB of UFS 3.0 internal storage. The difference between the performance of Oppo Find X2 Neo and Find X2 Lite (which I reviewed and tried for a long time) is not huge: you only get more RAM and more internal storage with the Find X2 Lite (12 GB). Android 10 is installed out of the box, customized by ColorOS 7. Note that all of these devices feature 5G connectivity (both SA and NSA standards), but Oppo Find X2 Neo and Find X2 Lite pack integrated 5G modem, while Find X2 Pro relies on an external Snapdragon X55 modem.
Camera
There is an important difference even on the camera side between Oppo Find X2 Pro and Find X2 Neo. The former packs two 48 MP sensors and a periscope lens with up to 5x optical zoom, while the latter has a quad camera with just one 48 MP sensor and a 13 MP telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom. But given the great main sensor and OIS, the Find X2 Neo is still an amazing camera phone. Even the Find X2 Lite is pretty nice with its awesome video stabilization and a pretty good main sensor, but it is just a midrange camera phone and it lacks both OIS and a telephoto lens.
Battery
There should not be a big difference between the battery life of these three devices. The Oppo Find X2 Pro has a bigger battery, but it has to manage less efficient components, so we do not believe it will last more than Find X2 Neo and Find X2 Lite which comes with the same 4025 mAh capacity. What makes the difference is the charging speed: you get blazing speeds with the Find X2 Pro with a 65W fast charging technology (the fastest commercial technology), while Find X2 Neo and Find X2 Lite come with slower 30W fast charging.
Price
Oppo Find X2 Pro has a global price of €1,199/$1298, Oppo Find X2 Neo costs €699/$756, and Oppo Find X2 Lite is priced €499/$540. In each case, you get an above-average device with impressive specifications under every point of view. The Find X2 Neo sits in the middle, it is the perfect compromise and it is worth the money asked. Find X2 Pro brings a lot of innovation and it is a top-tier flagship without compromises, but it is recommended only for those seeking the max performance, the most amazing display, and the best camera department. If you just need a well-balanced device which does not disappoint under every point of view, even Find X2 Lite may be enough for your needs.
