OPPO Find X8 Series: The Version Answer to Flagship Imaging, Capture Ambiance with a Single Snap

Imaging has always been a core feature of flagship phones, a key focus for users when making their choice. Different smartphone brands have their own unique philosophies on imaging, both shared and contrasting. OPPO has continuously accumulated and innovated in mobile imaging technology in recent years, with its Find series becoming a benchmark in the mobile imaging field. This year, the OPPO Find X8 series again pushes the boundaries of imaging hardware and algorithms, introducing a brand new version answer to mobile imaging, enabling ordinary users to effortlessly capture beautiful photos and Live Photos.

OPPO Find X6 Series: The Industry's First Ultra-Light and Shadow Triple-Main Camera System

The OPPO Find X6 series redefined the Ultra-Light and Shadow Triple-Main Camera, breaking the traditional "distinction between primary and secondary" in phone cameras, ushering mobile imaging into the era of multiple main cameras. The wide-angle, telephoto, and ultra-wide-angle cameras all employ industry-leading large-sensor technology and advanced optical design, allowing each camera to possess flagship-level light capture capabilities.

Among them, the Super Light-Sensitive Periscope Telephoto is the industry's first periscope telephoto camera with a large-sensor technology, enabling phones to transcend light and darkness, opening up new scenarios for low-light telephoto photography.

Building upon the robust imaging hardware foundation, the Find X6 series is the first to incorporate the OPPO Ultra-Light and Shadow Image Engine, capable of accurately calculating the correct relationship between light, objects, and the environment, bestowing each photo with a rich light and shadow layering effect. Integrated with the new photon matrix technology, the Ultra-Light and Shadow Image Engine is the key technology behind the accurate light and shadow relationship in the OPPO Find X6 series. Leveraging OPPO's advanced computing infrastructure, Find X6 series can record up to 12 million photon dot matrix information, allowing for more reference-based calculation of the correct relationship between the subject, environment, and light, achieving an 8x improvement in light and dark dynamic range, restoring natural light and shadow tones.

It can be said that thanks to the Ultra-Light and Shadow Triple-Main Camera and algorithm enhancements, the Find X6 series represents a breakthrough in OPPO's mobile imaging, demonstrating its leadership through tangible products.

OPPO Find X7 Series: Industry's First Dual-Periscope Technology Debut

The success of the Find X6 series has put considerable pressure on the mobile industry, and similarly, the pressure is on the next generation Find X7 series. When flagship phone main cameras have reached a remarkably high level of performance, the bottleneck affecting the user photography experience lies in telephoto capabilities.

In this era of "the lens is king," the performance of phone cameras has become a significant factor for consumers choosing their devices. Telephoto lenses, as a technology capable of achieving higher optical zoom levels, have always been a hot topic. However, regarding telephoto, the mobile industry has been faced with many unavoidable dilemmas to choose 3x telephoto or 5x telephoto? To opt for upright telephoto or periscope telephoto? Only kids make choices, those with prowess demand the best!

OPPO Find X7 Ultra is the first in the industry to adopt a 3x and 6x dual-periscope telephoto lens combination, featuring a 65mm (3x) medium telephoto camera for portraits and a 135mm (6x) super telephoto lens. Together with the 23mm 1-inch ultra-large sensor main camera and the ultra-wide-angle lens, they form a full-focal length quad-camera module, each with top-tier configuration, significantly enhancing imaging capture capability.

Moreover, the newly added 135mm (6x) periscope telephoto lens exhibits image quality close to the 3x periscope telephoto on the previous generation Find X6 Pro. The 10x telephoto achieved through cropping is comparable to the 6x on Find X6 Pro. Concurrently, the OPPO Find X7 series has comprehensively upgraded professional Hasselblad portrait capabilities, coupled with OPPO's new generation Ultra-Light and Shadow Image Engine, propelling imaging capabilities to a new height.

To this day, through system OTA functional upgrades, OPPO Find X7 Ultra remains the imaging benchmark among flagship phones.

OPPO Find X8 Series: Capture Ambiance with a Single Snap

While phone image quality continues to improve, the imaging focus of the OPPO Find X8 series is on the experience, more specifically, on capturing moments. No matter how powerful the imaging hardware and algorithms, if you can't capture or capture blurry shots, it's meaningless. As the saying goes, "The fastest wins in the martial arts." Thus, the Find X8 series introduces the Shadowless Capture feature, allowing users to capture ambiance with a single snap.

First, we need to introduce the heavily loaded imaging hardware of the OPPO Find X8 series. Not only does the standard version include a periscope lens, but the previous generation's industry-leading dual-periscope lens is now found on the Find X8 Pro, and through AI, it achieves 30x "beautiful" and 60x "powerful" super-telephoto photos, marking the most powerful "Pro" in OPPO history.

In the Find X8 Pro, which also packs 3x and 6x dual-periscope lenses, the overall height of the DECO imaging module is only 3.67mm, a significant 30% reduction compared to the previous generation's 5.2mm. With a screen size close to the previous generation Ultra, dual-periscope lenses, and a 910mAh battery increase, the Find X8 Pro achieves a 13.7% thinner profile than the previous generation Ultra, and even weighs 6 grams lighter. Despite enhanced imaging and a larger battery, the OPPO Find X8 Pro maintains a compact body at 215 grams, thinner and lighter, making it more convenient for user usage.

Second, Shadowless Capture is the most significant change OPPO has made to imaging on the Find X8 series. Setting aside the underlying technology innovations like shutter adaptivity, adaptive instantaneous dual-frame, and staggered calculation, Shadowless Capture mainly achieves automatic default enablement of night mode and HDR, covering both photo mode and portrait mode. We no longer need to manually select, and it supports all camera lenses across all focal lengths. Simply pick up your phone and press the shutter to capture.

We only need to choose different touch-to-shoot operations based on our shooting scenario, such as a single touch for normal movement, continuous touch for moderate movement, and long press for significant movement. All operations are concentrated on the touch-to-shoot button, reducing user thinking and steps, significantly improving capture efficiency.

The Find X8 series supports high-speed continuous capture for up to 200 high-resolution photos in a single shot, without dropping the shutter or algorithms, with each photo undergoing tens of millions of high-precision calculations. The Find X8 series is also currently the only phone supporting full-volume calculation high-speed burst shooting.

Moreover, for our daily shooting and capture needs, the Find X8 Pro introduces a buff the Capture Quick Start Key. When we lift the phone, double-clicking the Quick Start Key will launch the camera interface, and a single click will trigger the shutter to shoot, long-pressing for continuous shooting, and swiping the Quick Start Key left and right for zooming. Together with the Find X8 Pro's intelligent scene Auto mode, which achieves white addition and black reduction, we only need to press the shutter to capture photos with ambiance.

With Shadowless Capture on the OPPO Find X8 series, we only need to worry about pressing the shutter, and the rest is handled by the phone.

Finally, the OPPO Find X8 series brings the full version of Live Photos - Ultra-Clear Live Photos. When using the Find X8 series to shoot Live Photos, Shadowless Capture is also supported. Combined with the added HDR effect and anti-shake, users can effortlessly capture Live Photos with a full ambiance.

Find X8 series Ultra-Clear Live Photos support overlaying multiple styles, adding a film-like feel to Live Photos. It also supports conversion to GIF and video, offering users more flexible sharing options. The Find X8 series also thoughtfully supports beautification features for Live Photos, we must give kudos to OPPO's product managers!

Summary

Great imaging shouldn't be exclusive to professional photographers. This time, the OPPO Find X8 series, through the powerful hardware of dual-periscope telephoto lenses, Shadowless Capture, Ultra-Clear Live Photos, and AI enhancements, achieves a seamless photo-taking experience without switching modes, sacrificing image quality, or missing moments. It allows ordinary users to effortlessly capture beautiful photos and Live Photos with a sense of ambiance. The OPPO Find X8 series is the version answer to flagship phone imaging!
