Ahead of the official release, interested buyers can reserve both models in China. The product listings on the official website not only display color variations but also outline the available storage configurations.
The Oppo Find X7 is set to be launched in four distinct color choices: Desert Silver Moon, Smokey Purple, Starry Sky Black, and Vast Sea and Sky (blue) (translated from Chinese). Among these, the black and purple options showcase glass back panels, while the remaining two exhibit a combination of faux leather and glass finish. In terms of storage, the Find X7 will be offered in various configurations: 12GB + 256GB, 16GB + 256GB, 16GB + 512GB, and 16GB + 1TB variants.
The Oppo Find X7 Ultra, on the other hand, will be offered in Desert Silver Moon, Song Ying Mo Yun (black), and Vast Sea and Sky (blue) (translated from Chinese) colourways. All options of the Ultra model will carry a part faux leather and part glass finish on the back. The phone is listed with 12GB + 256GB, 16GB + 256GB, and 16GB + 512GB storage options.
Both Oppo Find X7 models are seen with a large circular camera module placed centrally towards the top of the back panel. They are seen with curved screens with a hole-punch slot at the top to house the front camera. The volume rockers and power buttons are placed on the right side of the handsets, while the left edge appears to sport an alert slider that is usually found on OnePlus smartphones.
The base Oppo Find X7 has been tipped to be powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 9300 SoC, while the Find X7 Ultra is said to carry a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset. They are expected to ship with Android 14-based ColorOS 14. The vanilla handset is likely to sport a 6.78-inch 1.5K display with BOE 8T OLED LTPO panel with 120Hz refresh rate and 2,160Hz PWM dimming rate, and the Ultra variant could get a 6.82-inch 2K display. Both handsets are said to come with a 5,000mAh battery with 100W wired fast charging support.
In the camera department, the Oppo Find X7 is rumored to incorporate a 50-megapixel LYT-808 primary rear sensor equipped with optical image stabilization (OIS). Additionally, it might house a 50-megapixel Samsung JN1 sensor accompanying an ultrawide lens, alongside a 64-megapixel Omnivision OV64B periscope telephoto camera boasting 3x zoom functionality coupled with OIS support. Conversely, reports suggest that the Find X7 Ultra might sport a 50-megapixel LYT-900 primary sensor with OIS, a 50-megapixel LYT800 sensor functioning with an ultrawide lens, and an OIS-supported 50-megapixel IMX890 sensor featuring a telephoto lens offering 3x optical zoom.
