Earlier today (16th December 2021), MediaTek officially launched its latest flagship chipset, the Dimensity 9000 SoC. It will power top end smartphones, with various brands already confirming that their upcoming handset offerings will feature this new chip.

Talking about the chipset first, it is based on the 4nm process from TSMC and features an ARMv9 CPU architecture. The SoC sports eight cores, with one Cortex X2 super core that clocks in at 3.05GHz, paired with three performance Cortex A710 cores and four efficiency based Cortex A510 cores. Furthermore, it also supports LPDDR5X memory along with an 8MB L3 cache and 6MB system cache. For graphics, it features a Mali G710 GPU, which supports the brand’s HyperEngine 5.0 with AI-VRS along with raytracing software development kit (SDK) using Vulkan for Android.

The Taiwanese chipmaker’s Deputy General Manager, Yenchi Lee stated that “the Dimensity 9000 is the most powerful and energy efficient chip to date, delivering a number of industry firsts and a full suite of features for the most discerning tech enthusiasts.” With the official launch, smartphone brands took to social media to announce that their upcoming handsets will feature this new chipset.

This includes Redmi, who stated that an upcoming model within its K50 series will feature the new flagship chipset from MediaTek. Similarly, OPPO also revealed that its next gen Find X series model will also feature Dimensity 9000 SoC as well. Other brands like Vivo, Xiaomi, and even Honor will be launching their smartphones with this chip in the first quarter of next year as well. So stick around as we will be providing updates when additional information is available regarding this matter.

With each passing week comes more details about OnePlus’s future as a sub-brand of OPPO. Yesterday, we learned that the codebase for OyxgenOS will now be integrated with that of ColorOS. That’s the software part. For the hardware part, we have more juicy details.

A Chinese leaker revealed on Weibo details about OPPO’s hardware plans. The leaker who goes by “Arsenal” on the social media platform and has provided reliable information in the past is the source of the information. In a Weibo post dated yesterday, he disclosed that OnePlus will become OPPO’s new high-end product line! He goes on to say that OnePlus phones will be positioned in a fashion similar to Huawei’s P series and their selling point will be camera performance.

The leaker also revealed that OPPO’s Find X series will be the manufacturer’s second flagship line. The post says that the Find X series will be the first to debut newly developed features and be positioned in a similar way to Huawei’s Mate series.

While we expected there will be changes to how both companies operate, the aforementioned ones are astonishing. Nevertheless, it does sound like a sensible decision and one that will most likely take effect next year. OnePlus fans will be particularly pleased to learn that future models will pack better cameras.

It is important to state that while the info comes from a reliable leaker, we should still take it with a pinch of salt until evidence surfaces or there is an official statement.

What do you think of OPPO’s plan, yay or nay? Let us know in the comment box below.

The post Leak says OnePlus and Find X series will be OPPO’s flagship lines appeared first on Gizmochina.

The Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 and OPPO Find X have given a new meaning to the term “slider phone” in recent years. In both cases, their manufacturers have leveraged this form of motion to develop alternatives to the all-too-common display notch. However, unlike the Mi Mix 3, the Find X‘s slider is automatic. This feat of engineering, while innovative, may not have helped the phone’s popularity.

Nevertheless, it appears that a new OPPO has been working on a 2nd generation of this technology. A new patent, allegedly found in the World Intellectual Property Office database, shows a new sliding-phone design from the company. It appears to have the exact same slider mechanism, but with colour images which show the smartphone from all sides.

The front shows a bezeless display, with rounded edges. The difference is that on the Find X, the two rear-facing cameras are found on the back of the mechanism that slides along with dual selfie-cameras. The patented device has a vertically mounted dual-camera setup and a “V” shaped design on its rear panel. It also has two camera sensors on the slider mechanism.

This novel style also gives the phone the appearance of having a large tick-mark on the back when the slider module is activated. The new patent, apparently granted on August 2, 2019, invites speculation that it may be applied to this year’s rumored Find Z flagship. However, as the rear camera module in its images only has space for 2 lenses, there is no guarantee that this is the case.

The post Oppo files new patent for yet another slider phone appeared first on Gizmochina.

Last year’s OPPO Find X was the first phone with a slider design. Unlike the Mi MIX 3 and the Honor Magic 2 which actually have two distinct halves sliding against each other, only a portion (of the frame) of the Find X actually moves. A new patent reveals OPPO may want to try its hand another slider phone with a slightly modified design.

The patent diagram shows the phone will have really thin bezels all around the display although the chin is a bit thicker. Based on the patent design, we think this is also a motorized slider and not a manual one. There are no two distinct halves sliding over each other like the Mi MIX 3, instead, about a quarter of the rear of the phone actually slides and when it does, it reveals the two front cameras.

This portion that moves also carries the rear cameras but they are not hidden when closed as you have on the Find X, so you don’t have a plain back when the slider is shut. There are two cameras on the back too and they are arranged vertically with an LED flash below the setup.

There isn’t a fingerprint scanner visible on any part of the phone. We think it has one under the display or OPPO might use only Face Unlock as it did with the Find X. There are volume control buttons on the left and a power button on the right.

It is too early to say if this will be a member of the Find series if it does make it to the market or the F or R series. It might also be a future Reno phone. Nevertheless, we look forward to it becoming a real product.

OPPO is celebrating 10 years of manufacturing smartphones (2008 to 2018). There is no elaborate event, at least we haven’t heard of one save for Wednesday’s 10x optical zoom unveiling. However, the Chinese phone maker has taken to Weibo to celebrate some of its iconic releases. Below is a list of some of them:

OPPO A103

This was OPPO’s first phone. The A103 is a feature phone with a unique design even back in 2008. It has a smiley face on its back formed by the rear camera and flash and topped it off with a nice gold finish.

OPPO P51

The OPPO P51 would pass for a Sony Ericsson phone if you swapped the manufacturer’s name on the front. It also rocked an alphanumeric keyboard like the A103. It was released in two colors – metallic gray with green accents and white with red accents.

OPPO T9

This launched in 2009 just like the OPPO P51. It ditched the alphanumeric keyboard for a touchscreen display. Although it did keep some hardware keys. Like the P51, it also had a green accent albeit a different shade.

OPPO U529

Just when we thought OPPO was done with phones with a physical keyboard, it launched the U529. The U529 is a flip phone and must have been a hit among women thanks to its pink color. The alternating shades used for the keyboard is a nice touch.

OPPO X903

The X903 brought back the touchscreen display along with a slide-out QWERTY keyboard. It ran Android 2.2 Froyo and had a 1GHz processor, an 8MP rear camera and a 4-inch screen with 10-point multi-touch.

OPPO Finder

The OPPO Finder launched as the world’s thinnest smartphone in 2012 with a thickness of just 6.65 mm. There are a lot of phones much thicker than that even 7 years later.

The Finder wasn’t cheap. It cost over $600 and that got you a 4.3-inch Super AMOLED display, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of storage, and 1.3MP front-facing camera. I bet no one will pay even a third of that for a phone with the above specs this year.

OPPO N1

The OPPO N1 was a very popular phone when it launched in 2013 thanks to its rotating rear camera which doubled as the front-facing camera. It had a large 5.9-inch display (by 2013 standards), 2GB of RAM and a 3,610mAh battery.

The OPPO N1 still packs a larger battery than some phones released in the past year with a larger display.

OPPO Find 7 and Find 7a

The Find 7 and Find 7a even brought better specs but they will be remembered for bringing VOOC fast charging.

OPPO R7 and OPPO R7s

In 2015, OPPO became one of the top 10 smartphone brands in the world as it sold 50 million units. That year, some of its notable releases were the OPPO R7 and the OPPO R7s which are mid-range phones but came bundled with VOOC fast-charge technology.

OPPO R9 and R9s

In 2016, OPPO continued with just mid-range phones as it had done the previous year but that didn’t stop it from climbing higher in the top 10 list. The OPPO R9 series of smartphones were its popular releases that year.

OPPO R11 and OPPO R11s

2017 began the same way with the mid-range OPPO R11 but for the second half of the year, OPPO switched the design of its phones by adopting the new 18:9 aspect ratio. It was also the year dual cameras gained popularity and OPPO wasn’t left behind. The OPPO R11 had dual rear cameras but the OPPO R11s added the new display design.

OPPO Find X

The Find X is one of OPPO’s most important device ever. It made a big splash in the mobile industry with its unique design. It had a very high screen-to-body ratio as a result of the top bezel getting shaved off.

The usual sensors that lined the top bezel were hidden and only became visible via a motorized slide-out mechanism. The rear cameras and flash were also hidden and were revealed by the same slide-out module.

The Find X also marked the return of OPPO into the proper flagship category as it came with the same top of the range processor that powered a lot of other flagships in 2018.

A special edition of the phone brought a faster version of its VOOC charging technology. Dubbed SuperVOOC, you could charge your phone from empty to full in just 35 minutes.

Huawei was recently caught in the web of alleged benchmark cheating when it was discovered that the company’s phones are built to detect benchmark apps by their names. As a result, the phones run at optimal performance thus, achieve higher scores in benchmark apps. OPPO was also accused of engaging in the same practice and now, UL Benchmarks have delisted the OPPO Find X and F7 from its database.

UL Benchmarks is the makers of benchmarking app 3DMark and according to the report, the firm decided to analyse the benchmark results of both OPPO models after several accusations. The company tested the models using a private 3D Mark app that isn’t available to users or phone manufacturers. In the end, both models were discovered to have achieved scores that were up to 41% higher with the public app, than when tested with the private apps.

Just like Huawei, OPPO did not deny the finding but admitted that when its phones detect that the user is running applications like games or 3D Benchmarks that require high performance, the SoC then runs at full speed for the smoothest experience. Some may not view this entirely as cheating but it clearly violates UL benchmark’s rule on the ways a smartphone can interact with its benchmarking software. It also calls to question the dependence of many phone users on benchmark performance to choose a new phone.

Last week, OPPO had announced is software acceleration engine called Hyper Boost for significantly improving the performance its smartphones. Hyper Boost is all about optimizing the device’s performance in three areas namely, system, games and apps. The OPPO R17 and R17 Pro were confirmed as the first devices to receive Hyper Boost through a software update. Today, the Chinese manufacturer has confirmed a list of OPPO phones that will be upgraded to Hyper Boost through the latest ColorOS 5.2.1 update.

The OPPO Find X is scheduled to receive the Hyper Boost engine in this month. In November, the Chinese manufacturer will be making it available to devices like OPPO R11, R11 Plus, R11s, R11s Plus, A83 and A1.

In December, the OPPO R9s, R17, R15, R15 Dream Mirror Edition, A5, A79 and A73 will be getting the Hyper Boost engine through ColorOS 5.2.1 update. In January 2019, OPPO will be releasing the update for OPPO R9s Plus, A77 and A3.

Hyper Boost is OPPO’s version of GPU Turbo technology that is available on Huawei and Honor smartphones. Hyper Boost’s Behavior Aware Scheduling (BAS) feature can arrange the frequency of hardware in 0.2 milliseconds on a smartphone against Linux kernel of Android that adjusts hardware frequency in 20 milliseconds. This will allow the company to significantly boost the system performance on the aforementioned devices. The Chinese manufacturer had also claimed that Hyper Boost powered devices will offer up to 31.9 percent shorter loading times.

For optimized gaming experience on OPPO phones, the company has teamed up with Tencent, Netease, Unreal, Unity and others to ensure lag-free gaming on the top 100 mobile games. OPPO will be working on improving the Hyper Boost engine by adding AI features to it.

As is the tradition with benchmark site AnTuTu, a list of the best smartphones in terms of performance has been released. This list is for the month of August and only covers Android devices.

At the top of the list is Xiaomi’s Black Shark gaming smartphone. The Snapdragon 845-powered device has an AnTuTu score of 292,887 points. The Black Shark packs 8GB of RAM but also has a 6GB variant. It uses liquid cooling to prevent the device from heating up when in use.

Next on the list is the Meizu 16th. This is Meizu’s latest flagship released in August and it’s interesting to see it close to the top on its very first appearance. Just like the Black Shark, it has a Snapdragon 845 processor under its hood and also uses liquid cooling tech. The Meizu 16th scored 291025 points – roughly 2000 less than the Black Shark. The bigger version, the Meizu 16th Plus has a higher score but didn’t make it to the list due to insufficient sampling according to AnTuTu.

Grabbing the third spot is Smartisan’s Nut R1 flagship with 289490 points. This is yet another interesting device from China and one that will likely not make it out of the country (officially).

The Vivo NEX with its pop-out front-facing camera is at the 4th position with 286,286 points while Xiaomi’s Mi 8 Explorer Edition follows closely with 286268 points. The OPPO Find X is sixth on the list with 285,344 points.

The OnePlus 6 is at the 7th position but may end up getting pushed down further next month when devices like the Meizu 16th Plus and the soon-to-be-announced Nubia Z18 make the list.

The Snapdragon 845 version of the Samsung Galaxy Note9 is at the 8th spot while the Mi 8 and Mi MIX 2S close the top ten list with 272,527 and 265,256 points respectively.

The post AnTuTu releases list of best performing smartphones for August 2018 appeared first on Gizmochina.

AnTuTu has released its list of top 10 best performance smartphones for the month of July. The new list reveals that the phones that have made it to the top 10 list have managed to record more than 250K+ average benchmarking score. Xiaomi’s Black Shark gaming is leading the pack by scoring nearly 300,000 average benchmarking score.

The above list contains the top 10 best performing smartphones between July 1 and July 30. The Black Shark has recorded an impressive score of 292,977. The second place goes to OPPO Find X with a score of 286,589. The Vivo NEX is sitting on the third potion with a score of 283,877.

OnePlus 6 is at the fourth spot with a score of 282,644. The Smartisan R1 ranks on the fifth with a score of 274,279. The Xiaomi Mi 8 and Mi MIX 2S have respectively score 272,555 and 262,751 to slot themselves on sixth and seventh positions. The Galaxy S9+, Galaxy S9 and Sony Xperia XZ2.

Earlier this year, the Kirin 970 SoC powered Huawei phones were seen leading the list of AnTuTu’s best performing smartphones. However, all the 10 phones that have appeared in the top 10 list for July are powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 845. This theoretically shows that SD845 phones can offer better performance than Kirin 970 powered Huawei and Honor phones.

Huawei will be launching 7nm Kirin 980 SoC at IFA 2018. In October, it is expected to debut Kirin 980 driven phones such as Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro. By November, these phones could be available in wider markets. Hence, the Chinese manufacturer may lead the list of AnTuTu’s best performing smartphones by November. Rumors have it that Honor may also debut Honor V11 or V20 as a successor phone for Honor V10 phone from 2017.

Yesterday, OPPO had held an exclusive unveil event in Taiwan to announce the arrival of the Find X smartphone. The handset has arrived in the Taiwanese market in three models such as Standard Edition, Super Flash Edition and Lamborghini Edition. The Chinese manufacturer has confirmed the pricing of all three variants. As far as availability is concerned, the company only revealed that the Find X Standard Edition will be available from mid-August. The availability of OPPO Find X Super Flash Edition and Lamborghini may get confirmed probably in the coming month.

In Taiwan, the OPPO Find X Standard Edition carries a price tag of NT$ 25,990 (~$848). It features 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage. The device carries a 3,730mAh battery that supports 5V/4A VOOC flash charging. The reservations of this variant will begin on Aug. 31 in Taiwan and it will be available for buying from Aug. 15.

The Super Flash and Lamborghini Editions of Find X are respectively priced at NT$ 29,990 (~$978) and NT$ 49,990 (~$1,632). The Chinese manufacturer will be also selling O-Free true wireless Bluetooth headset in Taiwan with pricing of NT$ 3,990 (~$130) was introduced during Find X’s global launch in the previous month.

Apart from the aforementioned differences, all the OPPO Find X variants are packed with identical specs. The handset features a notch-less Super AMOLED display of 6.42 inches. The display supports an aspect ratio of 19.5:9 and a resolution of 2340 x 1080 pixels. The Snapdragon 845 SoC is present under the hood of the smartphone.

The motorized camera setup that rises up for 3D facial recognition when the phone is unlocked. The camera assembly includes 16-megapixel + 20-megapixel rear-mounted cameras and a 25-megapixel front-facing camera. The handset does not feature a fingerprint scanner. And, it also lacks a 3.5mm audio jack.

Various tech publications have praised the OPPO Find X for its marvelous design that features Gorilla Glass 5 front and rear panels. The handset is equipped with innovative features like huge notch-less display and motorized camera assembly. Unfortunately, the Find X has failed the bend test by JerryRigEverything. It has been also found that the motorized camera assembly that not only houses the front camera but also the dual camera is one of the weakest parts of the Find X. The malfunctioning of the motorized top section also means that the phone will fail to authenticate the 3D biometric face unlocking.

JerryRigEverything begins the durability tests on OPPO Find X by showing how shaky the motorized setup is. It does not seem to be as stable as the pop-up front camera mechanism on the Vivo NEX. The upper portion wiggles a bit which means there is a space inside that can easily accumulate dust participles. If foreign objects get inside, it can affect the proper functioning of the motorized setup.

In the scratch test, the Gorilla Glass 5 layer of the Find X developed marks at level 6 of Mohs scale of hardness. Deeper grooves can be seen at level 7. The side of the phone including the buttons are made out of metal. The rear panel is also scratch-resistant as it features Gorilla Glass 5.

The front facing camera and the sensors for 3D facial recognition that are available on the frontside of the motorized assembly are also protected by toughened glass. Since the OPPO Find X is equipped with 3D facial recognition feature, it does not feature a fingerprint scanner. In the burn test, the 6.4-inch AMOLED display of the Find X developed a white burn mark and it never recovered.

When pressure was applied from the backside of the Find X, it kept on bending which suggested that the phone could break easily with more force. When pressure was exerted from the front, the rigid and brittle AMOLED display could not handle the flexing and cracked in few seconds. Bending more from the front and rear caused the glass panels on both sides to develop cracks. The lack of stronger metal frame caused the phone to break easily.

Zack Nelson, the voice behind the JerryRigEverything YouTube channel claims that 90 percent of the smartphones that he has tested could easily pass the same bend test that was used on Find X. He added that the OPPO Find X is not designed to handle abuses. Accidentally sitting or stepping on the Find X can cause damage to it.

OPPO has recently introduced the OPPO Find X smartphone in two color variants such as Bordeaux Red and Glacier Blue. Two photos of the Pure White version of the Find X have surfaced online. OPPO is yet to confirm on the existence of the white variant for Find X.

Shown above is a partial view of the glassy back panel of an OPPO phone. The curved design on the rear resembles with the back panel of the Find X. Another leakster has shared a frontal shot of what appears a white edition of the smartphone. An attractive wallpaper is also present on the display.

Chinese manufacturers including OPPO are known for introducing new color variants for their smartphones. Releasing new color options allow smartphone companies to maintain the popularity of the smartphone. Vivo had launched the Vivo X21 smartphone in color options like Diamond Black, Ruby Red and Aurora White options. However, it is now only that the company has launched Night Purple edition for X21.

The OnePlus 6 flagship phone was unveiled in May. A couple of new Snapdragon 845 powered flagship phones such as Vivo NEX and Oppo Find X were launched after OP6. OnePlus introduced Red edition of OnePlus 6 in markets like China and India probably to maintain its popularity. Hence, there is a possibility that the Find X may come in a new color option few weeks later.

The 128 GB and 256 GB variants of the Find X that features 8 GB of RAM are available in China with respective price tags of 4,999 Yuan (~$747) and 5,999 Yuan (~$896) . In India, the Chinese manufacturer is selling the smartphone with a price tag of Rs. 59,990 (~$876). India will be also receiving the premium Find X Lamborghini Edition soon which is available in China in the coming month with 9,999 Yuan (~$1,495) pricing.

Even though the Find X was unveiled in Paris, France in the previous month, it is yet to be available for buying in European markets. An OPPO spokesperson has recently confirmed that the Find X will be releasing soon in the U.K. Also, it is also expected to release in other markets such as Spain, France and the Netherlands.

Meizu has been working on the Meizu 16 series right after it announced the Meizu 15. There have been lots of info about the flagships with a large percentage of them coming from Meizu’s own CEO Huang Zhang. A new leak has surfaced again but this time from a Weibo user.

The new leak is an image showing the front panel of the Meizu 16 Plus placed atop OPPO’s Find X smartphone. The idea is to compare how the Meizu 16 Plus measures up against the Find X.

As you can see above, the area occupied by the screen of the Meizu 16 is larger than the OPPO Find X (bezels and screen included). The screen size of the Meizu 16 Plus has not been revealed but from the image, we can see it is larger than the Find X’ 6.42-inch display.

Meizu already confirmed that the display of the phone will also house the fingerprint scanner – a first for the manufacturer. The phone will also come with a Snapdragon 845 processor, dual rear cameras, and have support for wireless charging.

The Meizu 16 Plus and its siblings are set to launch on August 26 according to CEO Huang Zhang.

Beginning at 10 AM in China, the standard version of the OPPO Find X is now available for buying on the official website of the company, Jingdong and other online shopping sites. The handset carries a price tag of 4,999 Yuan (~$749) and it comes in two colors like Bordeaux Red and Glacier Blue.

The reason why it is dubbed as standard version is that there two other models. There is a 256 GB Find X smartphone with 50W SuperVOOC flash charging feature and the other variant called OPPO Find X Lamborghini Automobili Edition is an advanced model that comes customized design, 512 GB of internal storage and 50W SuperVOOC flash charging. The two other Find X models will be available for buying in August in the home country.

The standard version of the OPPO Find X features a 6.42-inch S-AMOLED display. OPPO claims that the Find X offers a massive screen space of 93.8 percent. The motorized camera assembly that features the front camera as well as dual rear cameras rises up and retracts when the phone is unlocked to quickly perform the 3D scan of the face. The 3D facial scanning functions like the Face ID feature on Apple iPhone X. The dual camera setup of the Find X includes a 20-megapixel primary sensor and a 16-megapixel secondary sensor.

The Snapdragon 845 and 8 GB of RAM are the driving force of the smartphone. Since it has a standard version, it features only 128 GB of native storage. The phone is packed with a 3,730mAh battery that carries support for 5V/4A VOOC flash charging.

The OPPO Find X may be popular for its full-screen display and its motorized cameras but it appears it is also an audio champion. A press release from OPPO and Dirac has revealed the technology behind the Find X’ audio quality.

OPPO and Dirac have been working together for about five years now. It also shouldn’t come as a surprise that OPPO is concerned about audio quality. Apart from smartphones, OPPO also makes headphones and amplifiers. Dirac, on the other hand, is a Sweden-based global leader in audio technology.

The OPPO Find X features three of Dirac’s audio technologies. There is Dirac HD Sound® – for earphone optimization, Dirac Power Sound® for speaker optimization, and Dirac Sensaround® for soundstage widening.

Dirac Power sound helps with enhancing the volume and bass of the speaker while Dirac HD sound which is also present in the Find X’ earphones improves “musical staging clarity, voice intelligibility, and bass fidelity”. Dirac Sensaround comes into play when you watch movies or videos on the Find X while using any headphones.

Furthermore, OPPO and Dirac say they worked together on the hardware part too – such as determining the best position for the speaker, speaker cabinet, DSP, and amplifier.

All these optimizations combined with OPPO’s own audio hardware is what gives the Find X its impressive audio prowess.

The post OPPO and Dirac partner to give the Find X superior audio prowess appeared first on Gizmochina.

BBK subsidiary OPPO recently launched the OPPO Find X after several years of wait for the device which was expected to come with the name Find 9. OPPO already explained why it decided to go for a Find X naming, suggesting that the device’s innovation is endless. One of such innovation is the motorised camera slider which looks more refined than the pop-up camera featured on the Vivo NEX. The slider pops in and out of the back when there is need for a selfie. The presence of a slider design meant the amount of bezels at the top and bottom edges are further trimmed off.

The device has not gotten the teardown treatment which gives us an idea of how the slider works. This is particularly important if you are one of those who are curious to know how it works. The dismantling also shows a durable build hence, OPPO’s claims that it can last for up to 5 years without becoming faulty.

The OPPO Find X launch event is still hours away but The Verge has let the cat out of the bag early. So rather than wait till the official launch which is about 8 hours away…….

OPPO Find X Design

The Find series took a break after 2014 but now it is back with a new design, flagship specs, and a few tricks. The Find X has a 6.4-inch screen which is a big jump when compared to the 5.5-inch screen of the Find 7 and Find 7a, but with practically no bezels, there isn’t a huge difference in the size of both phones.

The screen of the OPPO Find X stretches to the top and therefore obliterates the bezel where the front camera, sensor, and earpiece usually reside. There is still a small slit for the earpiece above the display but OPPO has come up with a trick, albeit a familiar one, to hide the sensors and front camera.

Unlike the Vivo NEX that has a pop-out front-facing camera, the Find X itself has a large automatic sliding mechanism the width of the phone. When this part of the phone slides out, it not only reveals the front camera and 3D face scanning sensors for unlocking the phone, it also reveals the dual rear cameras and LED flash. OPPO has termed it “Stealth 3D cameras”. It is similar to what Doogee demoed with the Mix 4 prototype but with a slightly different take.

OPPO says the slide-out mechanism pops out in just 0.5 seconds. It is pretty fast according to The Verge and even if it isn’t for you, you will have to get used to it if you want to unlock your phone. That is because the Find X doesn’t have a fingerprint scanner. There is not one under the screen, on the side, or at the back. So it is either 3D Face Unlock or O-Face as OPPO calls it or pin/pattern/password.

OPPO Find X Specs

The OPPO Find X has a 6.4-inch curved 1080p OLED display with a 93.8% screen to body ratio. It is powered by the Snapdragon 845 processor paired with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of built-in storage.

It has a 25MP camera for selfies with multiple 3D portrait lighting features and OPPO’s own take on the iPhone X’ emojis which it calls Omoji. There is a 16MP + 20MP dual camera combo on the rear with OIS and AI features such as scene recognition.

Launch the camera app (or any app that needs to use a camera) and the slide out mechanism brings up the cameras for you. It will also automatically retract when you exit the app. If you are wondering about how durable the sliding mechanism is, OPPO says it will last up to 5 years without any issues.

Like it is mentioned above, the OPPO Find X doesn’t have a fingerprint scanner but it has O-Face (3D face unlock) which OPPO says has a failure rate of 1/1,000,000 compared to that of a fingerprint scanner which is 1/50,000. O-Face is secure enough for payment and therefore supports Alipay.

The phone has a dual SIM slot which is at the bottom beside the USB-C port. It has global LTE support which means it will work in any country. There is no audio jack which shouldn’t be a surprise anymore. Battery capacity is 3,730mAh with OPPO’s VOOC fast charging. The Find X runs Android 8.1 Oreo with Color OS 5.1 on top. OPPO says the phone will get support for Android P beta.

OPPO Find X Automobili Lamborghini Edition

Just as Huawei announced the Mate RS Porsche Design, OPPO has decided to partner with Italian car manufacturer Lamborghini, for a special edition Oppo Find X.

The OPPO Find X Automobili Lamborghini Edition has a textured design under the rear glass that makes it appear like carbon fiber. It also has an engraved Lamborghini logo at the bottom.

OPPO hasn’t stopped at just upping the physical appearance. The Find X Lamborghini Edition is the first OPPO phone to come with SuperVOOC fast charge. SuperVOOC fast charge has a 50W power rating (10V/5A), allowing you to charge the phone’s 3400mAh battery from zero to 100% in just 35 minutes!

The phone also comes in a special packaging with custom accessories with design inspiration from some of Lamborghini’s cars. OPPO says this is the beginning of their partnership with Lamborghini, so expect future OPPO-Lamborghini phones.
