The OPPO Find X8 Ultra refines an already strong formula, elevating smartphone photography to new heights. Building on the success of the Find X8 Pro, this flagship delivers a sharper design, powerful performance, and one of the most versatile camera systems ever seen on a phone. Unfortunately, its limited availability outside China prevents it from being an easy global recommendation.
Design and Display
OPPO has moved away from last year’s two-tone vegan leather finish, opting instead for a sleek matte back that feels both modern and understated. Despite its 6.8-inch size, the device is comfortable to hold thanks to its rounded edges. The flat LTPO AMOLED display offers a 120Hz refresh rate and an impressive 2,500-nit peak brightness, making HDR playback vibrant yet balanced.
Performance and Battery Life
Powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite, the Find X8 Ultra delivers consistently smooth performance whether gaming, multitasking, or editing high-resolution content. Its 6,100mAh silicon–carbon battery is equally impressive, providing outstanding endurance—easily lasting into a second day of use under moderate workloads.
Cameras Built to Impress
The quad-camera setup is a standout: a 50MP one-inch main sensor, 50MP ultrawide, and dual 50MP telephoto lenses at 3x and 6x optical zoom. The main sensor captures exceptional detail with natural colors and excellent dynamic range, even in challenging low-light conditions. The 6x telephoto lens delivers superb clarity and doubles as a capable macro shooter, while video recording reaches new heights with smooth stabilisation, seamless lens switching, and 4K60 capture—soon to be upgraded to 4K120.
Drawbacks and Limitations
The replacement of OPPO’s classic alert slider with a less functional shortcut button is a step back, and the lack of global availability remains the device’s biggest drawback. Importing is possible but introduces added costs and potential carrier compatibility issues.
Verdict
The OPPO Find X8 Ultra combines class-leading cameras, exceptional battery life, and refined design, making it one of 2025’s most complete Android flagships. If it were widely available, it could challenge for the title of best smartphone of the year. For now, it’s a remarkable device that most people will only admire from afar.
