Oppo Find X8 Ultra Sets New Standard For Night Photography
The Oppo Find X8 Ultra is finally out with game-changing night photography. You’ll want to see how it competes with the best camera phones in the world.
Oppo launches Find X8 series, improves night portrait photography
Chinese smartphone company Oppo has launched its new flagship smartphone series Find X8. This series includes Find X8s, Find X8s+, and Find X8 Ultra. Oppo says that the Find X8 Ultra is made mainly for people who love night portrait photography.
Special Features of Find X8 Ultra
The Oppo Find X8 Ultra comes with a Snapdragon 8 Elite processor and a new 2K display. It will be available for sale starting April 16. The base price is RMB 6,499 (about $889).
This phone is 8.78mm thick and has a 6.82-inch flat 2K display made with BOE’s X2 material. Oppo says this shows that flagship phones don’t always need to be big or heavy.
The phone has a large 6,100mAh battery and supports 100W wired charging and 50W wireless charging. The company claims the wired charger can fully charge the phone in just 35 minutes.
Major Camera Upgrade
The Find X8 Ultra has five rear cameras, which include:
-
50MP wide-angle main camera (Sony LYT900 sensor)
-
50MP ultra-wide-angle lens
-
50MP telephoto lens
-
50MP periscope telephoto lens
-
2MP Danxia True Color lens
This camera setup includes LUMO imaging system and introduces a new “Zonal Color Temperature Sensing” technology. This helps fix problems like wrong skin color or bright backgrounds in night portraits.
It also has a dual periscope telephoto system with a zoom range of 70mm to 135mm, allowing optical zoom without losing picture quality.
Oppo has worked with Hasselblad to make sure the colors look real. The phone also supports 4K/60fps Dolby Vision HDR video recording with all its lenses.
Oppo’s Strategy and Competition
Oppo’s Find X series is known for being camera-focused flagship phones. Apart from this, the company also has the Find N foldable series and the Reno series for mid-range users.
Today, many phone brands are focusing more on camera features because new technology changes are slowing down. The Find X8 Ultra is a good example of this trend.
What Other Brands Are Doing
While Oppo is focusing on camera phones, another Chinese brand Vivo is trying something different. It recently started its Robot Lab, where it will work on robots for home use, elder care, and education.
This project was shared at the Boao Forum for Asia. Vivo’s robots use two main systems—one is the “brain,” powered by its own BlueHeart large model, and the other is the “eyes,” using Mixed Reality to understand surroundings and interact better.
The Oppo Find X8 series is a strong option for people who want the best camera and night photography in a phone. At the same time, companies like Vivo are looking for new areas to grow, showing that smartphone brands are now doing more than just making phones.
