Exciting News for Oppo Fans!
A recent leak has hinted at the upcoming Oppo Find X9 series featuring a groundbreaking 200 MP camera sensor. However, contrary to expectations, this high-resolution sensor is likely to be utilized for a periscope telephoto camera rather than the primary one.
Revolutionizing Telephoto Capabilities
Samsung currently leads the market with its 200 MP ISOCELL HP2 sensor in devices like the Galaxy S25 Ultra. Oppo's decision to incorporate a 200 MP sensor in a telephoto camera aligns with the strategies employed by rival brands such as Honor and Vivo. While the specific sensor model is yet to be confirmed, the Samsung ISOCELL HP9 is a strong contender, known for its exceptional performance in the zoom category.
Enhanced Camera Setup
If Oppo opts for the ISOCELL HP9 sensor, it would mark a significant upgrade from the 50 MP telephoto camera in the Oppo Find X7 Ultra. With a larger sensor size of 1/1.4 inches, the HP9 promises improved light capture and image detail, particularly for longer focal lengths.
Lumo Engine and Hasselblad Partnership
Interestingly, the leak coincides with Oppo's introduction of the 'Lumo' image processing engine. While maintaining its collaboration with Hasselblad for color science, Lumo brings additional software enhancements, including advancements in portrait photography. This push towards cutting-edge camera technology could potentially position the Find X9 Ultra as a frontrunner in the competitive camera phone market.
Anticipated Launch and Conclusion
Despite the early speculations, the Oppo Find X9 series is not expected to debut until Q4 2025. Meanwhile, all eyes are on the imminent launch of the Find X8 lineup, featuring the Oppo Find X8, Find X8+, and Find X8 Ultra, scheduled to be unveiled on April 10.
