It’s no secret that I’m a fan of OPPO’s recent flagship smartphones. Between the Find X’s unique design aesthetic, powerful cameras, and massive batteries, these phones have regularly offered something a little different to your household’s flagship names without compromising on the core smartphone experience. But one thing missing from OPPO’s global lineup in recent years has been its Ultra flagship models, which, for various reasons, have been consigned to China. That all changes this year, with the OPPO Find X9 Ultra, and I’ve had one in my hands for the past three weeks.
With a powerhouse Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, 7050mAh silicon-carbon battery, 100W fast charging, 50W wireless charging, IP68/IP69 rating, four rear cameras, five years of OS updates, and six years of security patches, OPPO is holding nothing back.
