Oppo, the Chinese tech giant, seems set for an even larger launch of its flagship Find X8 series next year than previously expected. The Find X8 and X8 Pro debuted earlier this month with the MediaTek Dimensity 9400 processor, but a new rumor now suggests two additional models set for a Q1 2025 release.
This tidbit comes courtesy of tech tipster Smart Pikachu, who shared a Weibo post suggesting that Oppo’s Find X8 lineup could expand beyond the anticipated Ultra model.
According to Smart Pikachu, two new smartphones will join the series, although the specific names of these additional models remain undisclosed.
The Find X series from Oppo has never had a fixed number of smartphones. For instance, the Find X2 and X3 series each featured four distinct models, while the Find X5 shifted to a more streamlined trio.
The Find X6 and X7 lines were then reduced to just two models each, with the first Ultra model arriving in January 2024 as the Find X7 Ultra. Interestingly, the Find X7 lineup omitted a Pro variant, which has now made a return with the Find X8 series.
While we’re uncertain about the exact nature of the new add-on in the Find X8 series, it’s worth noting that Oppo has previously explored Lite and Neo variants within the Find X lineup.
Vivo recently launched a Pro Mini model in its X200 series, so it could be that Oppo may also be considering a compact flagship this year. A rumor this month even mentioned that five major Chinese smartphone brands are exploring compact flagship options. Oppo could be one of them.
Oppo is expected to launch the Find X8 Ultra smartphone in Q1 2025. If Oppo indeed has plans to expand its lineup beyond these three models, more details about the upcoming Find X8 devices should surface in the coming months. Stay tuned for updates as they become available.
