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

/in /tarafından

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 N5, the next iteration in Oppo’s foldable smartphone lineup, is set to make its debut in global markets next week. After teasing the device for some time, the company has confirmed that the launch will happen on February 20 in Singapore, with the device making its way to China and other regions simultaneously. The Oppo Find N5 will be an exciting step forward in the world of foldables, with a 3D-printed titanium alloy hinge expected to provide durability while maintaining a sleek design. Additionally, a triple-camera setup on the outside is expected to deliver impressive photography capabilities for users.

The official event will kick off at 7 p.m. local time in Singapore, or 4:30 p.m. IST, marking the global unveiling. While Oppo has revealed the color options for the device, the global launch event’s teaser video seems to omit the Twilight Purple variant, which may only be available in China. Instead, the Oppo Find N5 will come in Jade White and Satin Black color options, giving potential buyers a glimpse of the stylish and modern design the device is expected to feature.

Leaked specifications of the Oppo Find N5 suggest that it will be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, offering significant performance improvements. The device will feature an impressive 16GB of RAM, which can be virtually expanded with up to 12GB of unused storage, providing plenty of power for multitasking and running demanding applications. For users who need storage, the phone will offer 512GB of internal space, allowing for a large number of apps, photos, and media.

One of the standout features of the Oppo Find N5 will be its camera setup, with a triple camera system on the exterior of the foldable device. The 50-megapixel primary camera will be complemented by two additional 50-megapixel and 8-megapixel sensors, which are expected to be used for telephoto and ultrawide photography. Additionally, the device will feature dual 8-megapixel cameras, one on the cover screen and one on the inner display, providing a comprehensive range of camera capabilities for both photo and video enthusiasts.

Oppo is set to unveil its highly anticipated Find N5 foldable smartphone later this month in China. The company has been gradually teasing the device across various social media platforms, building excitement ahead of the official launch. As the launch approaches, Oppo has revealed key details about the upcoming foldable, including a new color variant for the device. It’s expected that the Oppo Find N5 will be rebranded as the OnePlus Open 2 for global markets outside of China. Alongside the Find N5, Oppo is also preparing to launch the Oppo Watch X2 smartwatch, marking a major expansion in its product offerings.

Zhou Yibao, a Product Manager at Oppo, shared an update on Weibo, confirming that the Oppo Find N5 will be available in a sleek white color variant. This adds a fresh aesthetic to the foldable’s design, and many are speculating that additional color options, such as black, will also be announced during the official launch. The Oppo Find N3, the predecessor to the Find N5, came in Champagne Gold and Classic Black finishes, so it’s likely that Oppo will continue offering a variety of colors to cater to different preferences.

In addition to the color reveal, Oppo has also shared that the Find N5 will launch alongside the new Oppo Watch X2. The smartwatch is expected to offer several advanced features, including a blood pressure monitor, wrist-based body temperature measurement, and a new 60-second health checkup feature. These additions are part of Oppo’s strategy to enhance the health-focused capabilities of its wearable devices, providing users with a more comprehensive health monitoring experience.

With both the Oppo Find N5 foldable phone and the Oppo Watch X2 smartwatch expected to debut together, Oppo is clearly aiming to make a big splash in the tech market this month. The combination of an innovative foldable device and a feature-packed smartwatch shows the company’s commitment to expanding its product lineup and delivering cutting-edge technology to its users.
