Both the new variants of Find X8 series have been launched in the market with MediaTek Dimensity 9400 chipset. Find X8 is very special in many respects. I have been using Find X8, the regular model of this series, for the last two weeks and my experience of using the phone was quite wonderful. However, I did not like some things. In such a situation, this question will definitely be in your mind that would it be better to buy this phone of Rs 79,999? Can Apple or Samsung smartphones be purchased instead? Come, let us know the complete information about this new flagship phone in detail.

what we liked

• camera quality
• sound quality
• Video watching experience
• Features of ColorOS 15

what we didn’t like

• Rear camera could have been better
• non-essential apps
• The phone got slightly warm during charging
• The quality of the phone cover could have been better.

Oppo Find X8: phone packaging

First of all let’s talk about packaging. The box supplied with this phone comes with a hard pack. This phone comes with a new 120W dual-port GaN charger. Its charger supports 80W+45W charging speed. Besides, a USB cable and some documents are also available in it. Along with this, a phone cover is also available in the phone. I personally did not like this phone cover. Because such phone covers turn yellow quickly.

Oppo Find X8: camera setup

The first thing to be talked about in any flagship phone is the camera quality. In Oppo Find The device has a 32MP front camera for selfies and video calls. I liked the camera of this phone much better. The special thing is that you can improve the photo with the help of AI. I took many photos with this phone both day and night. Even if you compete with the iPhone’s camera, it still lived up to our expectations. However, we did not like the rear camera much. While taking photos from the rear camera, a slight black shade was visible.

The phone comes with AI Telescope Zoom feature which essentially uses AI and computational photography to improve the zoom quality at long distances. While using the camera, I found that pictures clicked at about 30x zoom looked much better. But according to me it could have been a little better.

Oppo Find X8: Design and performance

If you compare with earlier smartphones, the size of today’s phones is getting bigger. People are also liking big screen smartphones. This phone is quite handy. That means you can easily carry it in your hand. The Find X8 offers a compact in-hand feel thanks to its ultra-thin bezels. This handset measures 162.3 x 76.7 x 8.2 mm and weighs 193 grams. With IP68 and IP69 ratings, this phone can be submerged in 1.5 meters of water for up to 30 minutes.

Talking about the design, OPPO has worked hard on the design of this flagship phone. This handset provides premium build quality and looks quite premium too. The most important thing that I liked about this phone is that the design of this phone is very good. At the same time, SIM tray, USB Type-C charging port and speaker grill are found in the lower part of the phone.

Oppo Find X8: how is the display?

I also liked the display of this phone much better. This LTPO AMOLED panel comes with a resolution of 2,760 x 1,256 pixels and a bezel thickness of 1.45 mm. The brightness of the panel is also very good. This means you can use it at mid-brightness level even during the afternoon.

Oppo Find X8: Photos taken in low light

We also took pictures in low light at night. But in low light the pictures did not look very special. But in terms of color it looked much better. That means the color has not faded completely.

Oppo Find X8: Pass or fail in benchmark test?

We also did a benchmark test of this flagship phone. In the benchmark test of Geekbench, its score in single core was 2844. Whereas, the benchmark score of Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra was 2172, Samsung Galaxy S24+ was 2091, Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus was 1902.

Apart from this, its benchmark score in Multi-Core is 8340, which is quite good. After this, the score of Samsung Galaxy S24 is 6782, the benchmark score of Samsung Galaxy S24+ is 6661 and the benchmark score of Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus is 5046. Overall, this phone lived up to our expectations in the benchmark test.

Oppo Find X8: how is the software?

Talking about software, some interesting features have been provided in ColorOS 15. It has 58 pre-installed apps (6 third-party apps). Some apps are good. But some apps have been given unnecessarily. You get a great experience in UI navigation as the brand has introduced more than 800 new animations with this software. When you use the phone for a week, you will notice the difference and the UI navigation will look better than before.

Many editing tools are available

At the same time, with the new ColorOS, you get AI editing tools like Remove Reflection, Unblur, AI Eraser and Enhance Clarity. I will not tell about it in detail because you can experience it only by using it.

Circle to search feature seemed powerful

Like Samsung flagship phones, the Circle to Search feature is now available on almost every Android phone. This feature is also present in Find X8. To use it, you can press and hold the home button / gesture bar at the bottom of the screen and then draw a circle on the screen to find anything and search for it on Google. This feature is quite useful.

Oppo Find X8: How is the gaming experience

The gaming experience in Oppo Find X8 was quite good as it is a flagship phone. However, according to me, I found the phone a little slow during heavy tasks. But if you want a good gaming experience in a flagship smartphone, then this phone can be a better option for you. In this you can easily play games like BGMI, Free Fire Max.

The new recorder app powered by Gemini 1.5 Pro present in the phone can create a summary of the audio. The Notes app allows one-tap layout formatting and the app can provide summaries in 7 languages.

Oppo Find X8: Other features of the phone

Fingerprint sensor and face unlock

It has an in-display fingerprint sensor which unlocks the phone quickly. You can also use fingerprint for payment in the app. This phone also has a face unlock system, which is much better in terms of privacy.

Oppo Find X8: How is the sound quality?

Oppo Find X8 has dual speaker setup, one at the top and the other at the bottom. During testing, the action scenes looked fantastic and the audio was also very clear and balanced. I listened to all kinds of songs. Even in public places the sound was quite clear. I found the sound quality of this phone much better.

Oppo Find X8: How is the battery life?

Talking about battery life, the phone has a 5630mAh silicon-carbon battery. Even after doing multitasking on the phone, it easily lasts for a day. I used this phone the whole day, yet I got more than 5 hours of screen on time. This phone has support for 80W Super VOOC fast charging, so it gets fully charged in just 40-45 minutes.

Oppo Find X8: Our verdict

After its comeback in the Indian market, there is a lot of discussion about this phone. Compared to a normal flagship phone, this phone has many great features. It ticks almost all the boxes as far as a compact phone goes. It has better camera sensor and hypertone imaging engine. At the same time, it comes with both IP68 and IP69 ratings to protect against water and dust.
