Oppo is gearing up to launch its highly anticipated flagship, the Find X8 Ultra, in April. As teasers and leaks continue to pile up, the Find X8 Ultra is shaping up to be one of the most exciting smartphones of the year, particularly in the camera and charging departments. Here’s a comprehensive look at everything we know so far.
Flat Display and Design Upgrades
Unlike many of its competitors, Oppo is taking a different route with the Find X8 Ultra by opting for a flat display instead of a curved one. This move, confirmed by Oppo Find series product manager Zhou Yibao, makes the X8 Ultra stand out as the only “Ultra” flagship with a flat panel. The phone is expected to have an ultra-narrow bezel design, providing a more immersive experience.
A recently leaked teaser suggests that the device will have an oval-shaped rear camera module. On the front, there will be a centrally placed punch-hole cutout, keeping the design clean and modern. Oppo is also bringing an IP68/69 rating, meaning the phone will be resistant to dust and water, including high-pressure water jets.
100W Wired and 80W Wireless Charging
Charging speed has been a key area of focus for Oppo, and the Find X8 Ultra will feature significant upgrades. The phone will support 100W wired fast charging, which can take the battery from 0 to 100 percent in just 35 minutes. This matches what the OnePlus 13 offers, ensuring rapid power-ups for users who need a quick boost.
The real upgrade comes in the wireless charging department. Unlike its predecessor, the Find X7 Ultra, which had 50W wireless charging, the Find X8 Ultra will feature 80W wireless charging. This makes it one of the fastest wirelessly charging smartphones on the market, offering convenience without sacrificing speed.
Massive Battery
According to tipster Digital Chat Station, the Find X8 Ultra will house a large 6000mAh battery. The device will utilize a dual-cell battery setup, a design choice that improves efficiency and longevity while maintaining fast charging speeds. Despite the large battery capacity, the phone is expected to remain under 9mm in thickness, ensuring a sleek form factor.
Quad-Camera System
Oppo has always prioritized camera performance in its Ultra series, and the Find X8 Ultra is no exception. The phone will come with a quad-camera system co-engineered with Hasselblad. The setup is rumored to include:
- 50MP main camera with a 1-inch type Sony Lytia LYT-900 sensor and OIS
- 50MP telephoto macro camera with a Sony Lytia LYT-701 sensor, 3x optical zoom, and OIS
- 50MP periscope telephoto lens with 6x optical zoom
- 50MP ultrawide lens
The camera system is expected to deliver superior low-light performance, enhanced dynamic range, and improved zoom capabilities. Oppo’s product manager has also teased that the X8 Ultra will take “exceptional” night photos with richer colors and better light intake.
Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC
Unlike the Find X8 and X8 Pro, which are powered by MediaTek’s Dimensity 9400 chipset, the Find X8 Ultra will be powered by Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC. This ensures top-tier performance, making the phone a strong competitor in the flagship segment. The device is also expected to feature an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor for faster and more secure authentication.
Additional Features and Launch Details
Oppo is set to introduce an upgraded version of its 0916 X-axis linear motor, enhancing haptic feedback for a more immersive experience. Another notable change is the removal of the alert slider, which will be replaced with a multifunction button. The device is also expected to support satellite communication, which could improve connectivity in remote areas.
The Find X8 Ultra will launch in China in April, with sales starting the same month. However, global availability remains uncertain. Oppo’s previous Find X Ultra models never made it to international markets, including India, and the same could be true for the X8 Ultra. The phone is expected to be accompanied by other devices such as the Oppo Pad 4 Pro, Find X8S, and Find X8 Mini during its launch event.
