The device integrates advanced camera hardware breakthroughs, OPPO’s HyperTone camera system, and state-of-the-art computational photography in a sleek design. Let’s take a detailed look at everything the device has to offer.

Design & display

The Oppo Find X7 Ultra looks quite similar to the Find X7, featuring a large circular camera module on the back that has four cutouts and a Hasselblad branding. The frame is made out of metal with the volume rocker and power button placed on the right side and a three-stage alert slider on the left. The Find X7 Ultra boasts a sophisticated two-tone design in Ocean Blue, Sepia Brown, and Tailored Black. All of the three color options come with a premium vegan leather finish.

Up-front, the device features a vibrant 6.82-inch QHD+ curved screen with LTPO technology for smooth visuals and quality, reaching up to 1600 nits outdoors. It has 2160Hz PWM dimming, and a variable refresh rate ranging from 1 to 120Hz. ProXDR technology enhances dynamic range, making HDR photos stand out. It has a centered punch-hole that holds the front camera and an in-display fingerprint scanner.

Camera system

The standout feature onboard the Find X7 Ultra is the HyperTone Camera System, housing a Quad Main Camera setup with a HyperTone Image Engine. It includes four 50MP cameras with large sensors, featuring two periscope zoom cameras that address the gap between optical focal lengths. The primary camera, with a second-gen Sony LYT-900 1-inch sensor, offers detailed stills with a custom f/1.8 aperture lens and OIS. The ultra-wide camera, backed by a 50MP Sony LYT-600 sensor, excels in macro photography and expansive scenery.

The Find X7 Ultra features unique dual periscope cameras. The 3x periscope zoom camera boasts a 50MP Sony IMX890 sensor, enabling creative freedom with a near-focus distance of 25cm. Additionally, the 6x periscope telephoto camera, equipped with a large 50MP Sony IMX858 sensor, excels in capturing abundant detail for both landscape shots and telemacro photography.

  1. HyperTone Image Engine: While computational photography has transformed smartphone photography, OPPO’s HyperTone Image Engine ensures natural-looking photos without compromising quality.
