/in /tarafından

Oppo is set to unveil its latest smartphones, the Find X8 Ultra, Find X8s, and Find X8s+, in China. Ahead of the official launch, the company has teased the design of these upcoming devices through official renders. These images reveal some key design elements, including a centrally positioned hole-punch display and circular-shaped camera modules. Oppo has also confirmed that the new models will come in three attractive color options and will be available with up to 16GB of RAM and a maximum of 1TB of internal storage.

The official renders, shared via Oppo’s Weibo account, provide a closer look at the design of the Oppo Find X8 Ultra and its sibling models. The teasers show all three handsets sporting a sleek, modern look with narrow bezels and a hole-punch camera cutout at the center of the screen. The rear of the devices features a distinctive circular camera module with the Hasselblad branding prominently displayed. The camera setup is complemented by a flash positioned at the left corner of the rear panel, adding to the premium feel of the devices.

In terms of design specifics, the Oppo Find X8 Ultra appears to have a flat display, similar to the previous Find X8 and Find X8 Pro models. All three smartphones are seen to forgo the alert slider, which has become a signature feature of Oppo’s flagship devices. Instead, they feature a single button along the side of the phone. The Oppo Find X8 Ultra will be available in Hoshino Black, Moonlight White, and Morning Light colors, while the Find X8s will come in Cherry Blossom Pink, Moonlight White, Island Blue, and Hoshino Black. The Find X8s+ is expected to be available in Moonlight White, Hoshino Black, and Hyacinth Purple shades.

The official launch event for the Oppo Find X8 Ultra, Find X8s, and Find X8s+ will take place on April 10 at 7:00 PM local time in China (4:30 PM IST). Along with the new smartphones, Oppo is expected to reveal additional products, including the Oppo Watch X2 Mini smartwatch, the Pad 4 Pro tablet, and the Enco Free 4 earbuds. Rumors suggest that the Oppo Find X8 Ultra will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC, while the Find X8s and Find X8s+ models are anticipated to feature the MediaTek Dimensity 9400+ chipset, making them formidable contenders in the premium smartphone segment.

Oppo Find X8 Ultra May Replace Alert Slider with an Apple-Style Action Button

Oppo’s upcoming Find X8 Ultra is poised to take over from its predecessor, the Find X7 Ultra, which debuted in early 2024. While the previous model never officially launched in India, it introduced an innovative VIP mode that could be activated using the Alert Slider, a hardware feature originally found on OnePlus devices. This distinctive component also made its way to other BBK Electronics flagships, including the Vivo X100 Pro, X200 Pro, and X Fold 3 Pro. However, new reports suggest that Oppo might be moving away from the Alert Slider in favor of a more versatile, Apple-like Action Button.

According to well-known tipster Digital Chat Station (via GizmoChina), Oppo’s high-end camera flagship will reportedly drop the Alert Slider in favor of an Action Button-style feature. Unlike Apple’s version, which is limited to predefined functions, Oppo may allow users to fully customize its functionality. This move could offer a more personalized experience, letting users assign shortcuts for various tasks beyond simple profile switching.

Since this button is expected to replace the Alert Slider, its primary function will likely involve toggling between silent, ringer, and VIP modes. Another notable change mentioned in leaks is the presence of a flat display, as opposed to the curved-edge panels found in previous models. While some fans may appreciate the added flexibility of an Action Button, others might miss the tactile ease of the Alert Slider. Interestingly, OnePlus has proven that achieving an IP68 and IP69 rating with a mechanical switch is feasible, suggesting that Oppo’s decision is more about brand differentiation than technical limitations.

This wouldn’t be the first time Oppo has experimented with alternative hardware controls. The Find X8 Pro introduced a new Quick Button for camera operations, though it received mixed reviews for being somewhat finicky. As for the Find X8 Ultra, its availability remains uncertain, with no official confirmation on whether it will launch in all markets. However, leaks indicate that the device will feature an advanced telephoto macro camera, a technology expected to appear in the upcoming Oppo Find N5 foldable as well. Both devices are rumored to be powered by Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, positioning them as strong contenders in the premium smartphone space.

The Oppo Find X8 Ultra is anticipated to make its debut in China soon, joining the base Oppo Find X8 and Find X8 Pro models, which were unveiled in October 2024. The Find X8 series has already made its way to India in November, generating buzz around Oppo’s new flagship lineup. Rumors about the Find X8 Ultra have been circulating for weeks, hinting at some of the device’s standout features. The release of the Find X8 Ultra is expected to follow the launch of the Oppo Find N5, with March 2025 being speculated as the likely launch window.

Tipster Digital Chat Station recently shared new insights on the Oppo Find X8 Ultra’s display and camera setup. According to a post on Weibo, the handset is set to feature a 2.5D flat display with a sharp 2K resolution. This would position the Find X8 Ultra as a high-end option in Oppo’s lineup, offering an immersive visual experience for users. The tipster also teased an exciting new addition to the camera setup—a “physical telephoto macro” camera, which would be a first for the series.

In line with these rumors, a recent report from GSMArena revealed that Oppo’s Product Manager, Zhou Yibao, confirmed the presence of a telephoto macro camera on the Oppo Find X8 Ultra. This addition is expected to enhance the phone’s photography capabilities, offering users the ability to take detailed macro shots along with zoomed-in telephoto captures. The combination of these features is expected to make the Find X8 Ultra an attractive option for photography enthusiasts.

The Oppo Find X8 Ultra’s launch in March would mark an exciting milestone for the brand, as it seeks to solidify its position in the premium smartphone market. With its cutting-edge display technology and innovative camera features, the Find X8 Ultra is poised to stand out in a competitive segment. As Oppo prepares for the official announcement, more details are likely to emerge, building anticipation for the device’s arrival.
