Oppo just released the flagship Find X9 series in China, and has already announced a launch date for the global market. Both Find X9 and X9 Pro are going international on October 28th, though the specs and prices have already been confirmed, so there’s no suspense. Here’s everything you should know about these devices.
Oppo Find X9 Pro
This phone is up there with Vivo’s X300 Pro, a pure flagship handset. It’s the best and most bleeding-edge phone on Oppo’s roster, and they used the Dimensity 9500 chip to run it. By the way, that’s the first mobile platform from MediaTek with a 4.21GHz clock speed, not to forget the integrated Mali G1 Ultra GPU that takes raw raytracing performance to a whole new level.
The Find X9 Pro is also the bigger version of the two, built around a 6.78” LTPO AMOLED that seems to carry a 120Hz refresh rate and 1.5K (1200p) resolution. You have 1800nits typical and 3600nits peak brightness here, and a Gorilla Glass to shield the screen from damage.
Most folks will grab these phones for the camera, and the Oppo Find X9 Pro has the best hardware in class, almost as good as the Vivo X300 Pro. The main camera is a 50MP OIS (1/1.28”) sensor, which is good enough, but the best shooter on Find X9 Pro is its 200MP telephoto periscope with 3X zoom and OIS stability.
There’s a third camera on the back, a 50MP 120-degree ultrawide, and then we have a screen-laden 50MP selfie snapper in a punch hole on the Find X9 Pro. All these sensors record 4K 60fps videos. Weirdly, just the 16/1TB option got the satellite connectivity here.
Find X9’s battery is pretty solid at 7500mAh, and an 80W wired charging solution provides speedy refills. There’s even 50W wireless and 10W reverse wireless input here when your accessories need a boost. The fingerprint is the Ultrasonic kind, right on top of the screen. Pre-orders are already going on in China, so we have the phone’s price. The Find X9 Pro starts at CNY 5,299 (~PKR 211,000) for the 12/256GB version.
Oppo Find X9
This phone has a smaller build, though it uses the same MediaTek Dimensity 9500 and Android 16 Color OS 16. They are both promised 5 years of OS support. The Find X9, sadly, doesn’t seem to have that LTPO variable refresh rate. It’s built around a tinier 6.59” AMOLED 120Hz with 1.5K resolution and the same 3600 nits peak brightness as the Pro.
Find X9’s camera is the second best, as the name implies. Oppo used a 50MP periscope telephoto here, which is lower resolution, but the 73mm 3X zoom range and OIS stability are unchanged. The main and ultrawide cameras are pretty much identical on both models at 50MP resolution.
The selfie camera on the Find X9 is 32MP. Each phone goes up to WiFi 7 and Bluetooth 6 with an IP69 rating against water and dust. The battery size is dropped to 7025mAh on this vanilla model, but the 80W wired and 50W wireless charging speeds are consistent across the board.
This is a cheaper model but a flagship phone nonetheless, so it starts directly from 12GB RAM and 256GB base storage. Oppo Find X9, in China, has a base price tag of CNY 4,399 (~PKR 175,000), but this may not reflect the global sticker cost. Phones in China are usually much cheaper. The global launch is close, so we’ll know the retail info soon. Keep watching the news.
