The Oppo Find X9 Ultra is expected to debut in China sometime in March, and the leaks have been coming thick and fast. The latest one fills in two gaps that people have been asking about — the battery and the display.
A tipster claims Oppo is testing the phone with a BOE OLED panel running at 2K resolution and 144Hz. Worth noting though: the same source reckons the retail version might ship with a 120Hz refresh rate instead. Whether that’s a cost-saving decision or a power management one, we don’t know yet.
On the battery front, the Find X9 Ultra is apparently packing a 7,050mAh cell. That’s a serious bump over the 6,100mAh battery in the Find X8 Ultra, and it lines up with what Oppo’s Zhou Yibao confirmed back in December — that the X9 Ultra would go north of 7,000mAh.
From the sound of it, based on the spec sheet we’ve seen so far, that’s pretty much what Oppo is doing here. It’s rumored to feature a 6.82-inch AMOLED display, the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip, a 200MP main Sony Lytia 901 sensor with a periscope telephoto also at 200MP and an ultrawide of 50MP, as well as a second telephoto camera at 50MP for up to10x optical zoom. There’s also mention of support for a 300mm teleconverter kit, which if it proves to have any oomph in reality would make the device one of the phone centric shooters around.
Oppo is tipped to launch globally between April and June, with black, brown, and orange colour options on the table.
