The Oppo Find X8 series, which should include both the Find X8 and the Find X8 Pro, has been confirmed to be launching globally soon. Now there is some news about the third model in the rarely rumored series. Oppo’s Find X8 Ultra, which is supposed to replace the Find X7 UItra we covered this year, has only been spotted once and information about it is also very limited. Indeed, it hints that the phone could be released at a later date, but now we have a bit more detail about its display, along with a tipster that echoes some previous leaks.
In a post on the Chinese microblogging platform Weibo, the Digital Chat Station informant talks about a prototype device based on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC (SM8750) processor. According to the tipster, the imaging capabilities of this prototype device have not changed and it still has two periscope cameras (which the Find X8 Pro also offers).
The guide also notes that the focal lengths of the cameras have also not changed (compared to the Find X8 Pro). However, this new and upcoming phone will have Hasselblad’s new multi-spectral sensor. The Ultra is also said to have a single-point (or one-touch) ultrasonic fingerprint reader, which will be similar to some of the iQOO and Vivo smartphones that have been released in the past. The handset is also IP68/69 rated.
The phone is also reported to use a BOE X2 LTPO OLED panel, which has a rectangular screen with rounded edges on all four sides. The insider claims that the prototype phone has a 6.82-inch display and that it will offer a 2K+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. Indeed, all hints point to the display now announced for the OnePlus 13, which was only launched in China.
According to previous leaks, the Oppo Find X8 Ultra will have four cameras, two of which will have periscope cameras. The Find X8 Ultra may also include a magnetic charging system similar to MagSafe that can be used for other accessories.
Oppo has started teasing its Find X8 series for global markets, which also includes India. The company plans to revive its Find X brand in the country after a gap of almost four years. It will be interesting to see how Oppo positions and markets its Find X8 and Find X8 Pro smartphones in India. We reviewed the Oppo Find X7 Ultra this year, though Oppo didn’t plan to launch it in India back then. You can read the review here.
