OPPO Find X8 Pro Review and Specs

OPPO is now adding the X8 Pro to its upper segment phones, which it continues with the Find name. Combining powerful hardware components with artificial intelligence capabilities, OPPO seems to have significant advantages in the big competition in the upper segment with the X8 Pro. Let's see what OPPO has to offer to users.


Android phones are now turning into very powerful devices with new generation processors and other hardware components. We can see that even Android phones in the entry-level segment come with very impressive features. When this is the case, manufacturers are launching phones with even more striking features for the upper segments. OPPO's new flagship model, the Find X8 Pro, was also released a while ago and although it has not officially come to Türkiye, we acquired the device to review. Today, we will examine this phone, which was launched with the claim that it has artificial intelligence capabilities in addition to its powerful hardware components, in detail for you; let's see, what kind of flagship is OPPO launching to the market to intensify the competition?

How is the OPPO Find X8 Pro Design?

We can say that OPPO's new Find X8 Pro continues the design language of previous OPPO Find models, because, as in the X6 and X7, the large round camera island on the back of the X8 PRO is the most important detail that draws attention at first glance. In fact, we have been seeing this style of camera block design in many flagship models lately, but we are not complaining about it, the camera block looks very strong in its current state.

By the way, there are 4 lenses on the camera island. All four of them are 50 MP lenses. We will go into detail about them in a moment. The flash of the device is placed outside the camera island. The selfie camera on the front is positioned in the notch in the screen and has a resolution of 32 MP.

The Find X8 Pro's 6.78-inch screen glass is made of durable Gorilla Glass 7i. The brand has named this white color Pearl White, and you can see different white tone color waves on the back surface, just like pearls.

One of the striking features of the OPPO Find X8 Pro is that it also has a shutter button, like the iPhone 16. When you press this button, you can quickly open the camera app without needing a password or fingerprint. It is functional in this respect, but we can say that it attracts our attention more with its design. Because this new button located on the right side of the phone is not actually a normal button. It looks more like a touch area based on pressure. This button design could replace the buttons we are used to today in the future, it has such potential.

By the way, there is a button on the left of the phone, but it is actually a slider that you slide up and down. In other words, it is a kind of switch. With this switch, you can switch the phone from silent or vibration mode to sound mode and vice versa. The buttons on the right are the classic volume up and down and power keys. The phone also has a fingerprint sensor built into the screen. The front camera has facial recognition capability.

Finally, regarding the design, let us also mention that this phone, which weighs 215 grams, has IP68 and IP69 dust and water protection certifications.

Let's give a little information about the box contents. When we open the box of the OPPO Find X8 Pro review kit that came from abroad, we see that there is a protective case next to the 80W charging adapter that comes with it. Of course, since it will not be officially on sale in our country, you will need a compatible charging adapter if you buy it.

How is the OPPO Find X8 Pro Camera?

If we take a closer look at the Find X8 Pro's camera capabilities, you can see that OPPO has positioned the cameras as the most important components of this device. The device's cameras were developed in collaboration with the famous Swedish lens manufacturer Hasselblad. We can also see the letter H, which is Hasseblad's logo, on the camera island.

There is a main camera on the back side with a resolution of 50 Megapixels. There is also a periscope telephoto camera with 3x zoom and a second periscope telephoto camera with 6x zoom. The fourth lens has an ultra-wide angle camera and all these lenses offer a resolution of 50 Megapixels.

The front camera has a selfie camera with a resolution of 32 Megapixels and can take images at a 90-degree angle.

We said that OPPO added a shutter button to the phone like the iPhone 16. When you press this button twice, the camera app opens immediately. When the camera app is open, you can zoom in/out by sliding your finger left and right on the button. When you press the button, you take a shot.

If you hold down the button, you can take consecutive photos. Frankly, our only complaint about this button is that it is very difficult to physically feel its presence. So you can't be sure if you're putting your finger in the right place. Maybe if OPPO had lasered a light texture onto the button, this problem could have been solved. Let's see, maybe they will listen to these comments and make revisions in the next models.

The Find 8X Pro has an amazing zoom ability. When taking photos with the device's main camera, you can zoom in up to 120 times with the help of artificial intelligence, or if you wish, you can zoom out to 0.6x, so you can take a wider shot. This really offers some fun shooting options. By the way, the front camera also has a 0.8x zoom out option.

When shooting video, the main camera can go up to 4K resolution and 60 fps frame rate. If you want to shoot slow motion, you can select 240 fps frame rate at 1080p resolution, or record up to 480 fps at 720p resolution. You can also zoom up to 18 times during video shooting.

Among the video shooting modes, you have the options of cinematic shooting, Time-lapse mode or Dual view mode, which works the front and rear cameras at the same time, in addition to slow motion. Among the photo modes, you can find Night Mode, High Resolution Mode, Panorama and Long Exposure Mode. There is also a Document Scanner Mode that allows you to scan documents and convert the text on them into text. For those who want to get a little fun images, there are also filter features that allow you to place rabbit ears or similar stickers on the faces on the screen during both photo and video shooting. It should be said that the options here are quite rich.

You can also see the quick settings options on the screen during video recording. Here you can switch to Ultra Steady mode, which prevents shaking, or activate Dolby Vision HDR mode. These are also placed on the screen in a layout that you can reach with your fingertip. They provide great ease of use.

What are the OPPO Find X8 Pro Display Features?

We can say that OPPO has been generous with the screen of the new phone. The device's 6.78-inch AMOLED screen offers 2780x1264 pixels Full HD Plus resolution. The refresh rate of the screen can go up to 120 Hz. Moreover, we saw that the screen worked smoothly at 120 Hz during the games we tested.

The phone's screen also has successful values ​​in terms of brightness. While the normal brightness value is 800 nits, it can reach 4500 nits at the highest level. In other words, we are faced with a screen that does not reflect under sunlight.

How is the OPPO Find X8 Pro Performance and Hardware?

The new Find X8 Pro is a phone that also offers powerful components in terms of hardware. We see the Mediatek Dimensity 9400 in the processor slot of the device. Although this processor is not a Snapdragon 8 Elite, it is a very powerful processor. We also expect OPPO to release the Elite edition, which will be the next model of the Find X8, so we think that they saved the Snapdragon processors for the Ultra model in order to use a better processor in that device. However, the 8-core Dimensity 9400 produced with 3 nm technology is also a very powerful processor, let's underline this.

OPPO has also managed to keep performance stable with a software called Trinity Engine. This software calculates the phone's processing load instantly and keeps the fluidity stable by exchanging and synchronizing data between the CPU and GPU. OPPO also emphasizes that this process also improves the device's energy consumption by 8%.

The device's graphics processor is the Immortalis G925 MC12. We can say that this processor provides enough power to run all games at high settings. In fact, although OPPO did not emphasize it much, the Find X8 Pro also functions as a powerful gaming phone.

We also encounter satisfactory figures in terms of storage and memory capacity. The phone comes with 512 GB of internal storage and 16 GB of RAM. You can add 12 GB of virtual RAM to this amount of RAM. Thus, your applications waiting in the background can continue to work without slowing down the phone. There are also different options. It starts with 256 GB of storage and goes up to 1 TB. RAM sizes vary between 12 and 16 GB.

By the way, let's say that the test results of the device are also very remarkable. In the test we did with Geekbench 6, OPPO Find X8 Pro got 2841 points in single-core score, while in the multi-core test it reached 8582 points. In the AnTuTu test, it sees 2,343,879 points. These figures show that the phone is among the highest-performing devices on the market.

As for software, the Find X8 Pro uses the Color OS 15 interface that comes on Android 15. The company also announced that it will make 5 operating system updates for this phone and guarantee 6 years of security updates. So, starting from this point, we can say that you can run the OPPO Find X8 without any problems in terms of updates until 2031 and expect to see Android 20 with it.

What can be done with the Artificial Intelligence Features of OPPO Find X8 Pro?

Now let's talk about artificial intelligence. There are a number of artificial intelligence features on the phone. When editing your photos in the gallery, you can access them from the AI ​​tab. Thus, you can perform operations such as smart eraser, blur removal, reflection removal with artificial intelligence. In addition, there is an AI Studio application on the phone outside the gallery. Through this application, you can recreate your portrait or photos in your gallery with different styles offered by artificial intelligence. However, let's also state this: This AI Studio application does not actually work on the phone and is positioned on the phone as a service that creates images by connecting to a remote artificial intelligence server. When you first turn on your phone, OPPO gives you a credit of 5000 points for 1 year. It asks for a fee of 5-10 points for each image processing. In addition, you get another 5000 points every time you set up your account on a new phone. In other words, you earn 5000 points every time you buy an OPPO phone. Or you get another 50 points every day when you log in to the application. In other words, in addition to the annual 5000 points, you have another 50 points of daily usage. OPPO has just opened this system and is not yet "selling points", but they have stated in the explanations section that "we will announce new methods of obtaining points in the future".

In the meantime, Google's artificial intelligence applications are also integrated into the phone. When you press and hold the power button on the device, Google Assistant automatically opens and starts listening to you. Google's artificial intelligence service GEMINI answers the questions you ask by voice. Again, Google's circle search feature also works on the phone. This is, as you know, a practical search feature with artificial intelligence. When you see something you're curious about while browsing the web, you circle it with your finger and Google immediately analyzes the section you've circled with artificial intelligence and brings you search results related to it. Again, one of Google's long-loved features, Google Lens, the artificial intelligence visual search feature, also works easily on the device. These are all the powerful features we love about Android, and the Find X8 Pro can easily run these features.

What is the Battery Capacity of OPPO Find X8 Pro? How Long Does the Charge Last?

As for the phone's battery performance... The device has a 5910 mAh battery. This means that the phone can run for more than 1 day without charging under heavy use. In our tests, the phone performed for about 10 hours in gaming, about 18 hours in video playback, and about 14 hours in web browsing. These are also very good values.

When it comes to charging, the Find X8 Pro is not the fastest charging phone, but it can be fully charged in 50 minutes with an 80W charging adapter. In half an hour, the phone can be charged to 70 percent. It also has a 50W wireless charging capability.
