Although the launch of OPPO Find X2 and X2 Pro was imminent, it took a bit of time due to the cancellation of MWC 2020. Nonetheless, the duo is here with some imposing features, including the 120Hz screen, 5G modems, Snapdragon 865 chipset, as well as impressive fast charging in the market. On top of that, the Pro variant adds a stellar periscope camera.
Keeping differences aside, the two phone shares a similar 10bit 6.7-inch AMOLED panel with QHD+ resolution as well as 120Hz refresh rate. To minimize input lag, both phones have a 240Hz touch sampling rate, plus the support of DCI-P3 color gamut. Also, both phones boot on Color OS 7.1 on top of Android 10 out of the box.
OPPO Find X2
At the helm of Oppo Find X2 is the new Snapdragon 865 chipset paired with 12GB LPDDR5 RAM and 256GB of UFS 3.0 storage. Unfortunately, you have to make work with its onboard storage, as the phone has no microSD card slot.
OPPO has fitted the Find X2 with the triple sensor at the back: a 48MP primary camera carrying 1/43″ Sony IMX586 sensor with f/1.7 aperture. The main sensor comes with not only the largest pixel of any Quad-Bayer sensor, i.e. 1.12µm but also Sony’s new 2×2 OCL tech for improved focus that should overshadow even Dual Pixel sensors.
Next is the 12MP ultrawide shooter, which Oppo calls an ultrawide angle video camera. It comes with a Sony IMX708 sensor that has 1.4μm pixel size on the f/2.2 6P lens. The 16:9 aspect ratio of the sensor matches the recorded videos for better stabilization known as Ultra Steady Video Pro.
At last, there’s a 13MP telephoto lens with 5x hybrid zoom. The optical zoom’s capability, though, is not clear but it could anywhere in the 2x-3x range. Ultra Night Mode, on the other hand, can be enabled on all cameras.
The Find X, last year, pushed the envelope with its bold slider design, but this time the Find X2 misses out on that, instead, the selfie camera is hosted inside a punch hole on the display. It is a 32MP Sony IMX616 quad-Bayer sensor and f/2.4 lens.
Powering the Find X2 is a 4,200mAh battery that can be charged through an insane 65W VOOC 2.0 Flash Charge. Connectivity-wise, the phone supports all WiFi options, Bluetooth 5.1, but lacks the 3.5mm headphone jack.
The price of the OPPO Find X2 is €999 with availability beginning from May.
OPPO Find X2 Pro
The Find X2 Pro can be called a proper flagship successor to last year’s Find X with the much better camera setup, 512GB UFS storage (the RAM stays at 12GB), plus two exclusive color options to choose from.
The primary 48MP camera resembles the vanilla Find X2, but the ultrawide unit gets an upgrade to 48MP Sony IMX586 1/2″ Quad-Bayer sensor with f/2.2 lens. It’s pretty sure that this is not only the largest sensors backing an ultrawide camera but it also has autofocus and macro mode from distance of 3cm.
The telephoto camera, on the other hand, has 13MP 1/3.4″ sensor behind f/3.0 periscope lens with 5x optical zoom, 10x hybrid zoom and up to 60x digital zoom. The periscope camera on this one is a second-gen to last year’s Oppo Reno 10x zoom.
For selfies, the Oppo deploys a similar 32MP camera with f/2.3 aperture and 5P lens.
Oppo somehow has fitted a bigger batter — the difference is slender — inside the Pro variant; it’s a 4,260mAh cell with the same 65W Super VOOC 2.0 Flash Charge technology.
Again, there are two more exclusive features in the Pro version — IP68 water and dust resistance over IP54 on the non-Pro variant and a special X-axis motor for better haptic feedback.
The Oppo Find X2 Pro comes in Vegan Leather Orange with soft-touch material that mimics the feel of real leather, and Black Ceramic finish. The price of the Find X2 Pro is €1,199, with shipping starting from early May.
