The smartphone maker is set to unveil the Find X8 and Find X8 Pro at an in-person event in Bali, Indonesia. These models are expected to launch in India after the global release. During the event, Oppo will also roll out the global version of its ColorOS 15, based on Android 15, which was initially launched in China alongside the Find X8 series.
The company has already disclosed the specifications for the global models of the Find X8 and Find X8 Pro. The standard Find X8 includes a slim periscope zoom camera within its 7.85mm thick body, weighing 193g, and features a 6.59-inch display with minimal bezels. It will be available in Star Grey and Space Black, with a fingerprint-resistant finish.
The Find X8 Pro offers a larger 6.78-inch screen with quad-curved glass on both sides and will showcase the brand's first dual-periscope telephoto camera for international markets. The Pro model will come in Space Black and Pearl White, with the latter featuring a distinctive pearlescent design.
The camera systems on both the Find X8 and Find X8 Pro have been developed in partnership with Swedish optics brand Hasselblad. Additionally, Oppo has introduced features like AI Telescope Zoom technology, which allows users to zoom beyond 10x through software optimisation. In terms of battery capacity, the Find X8 is equipped with a 5,630mAh silicon-carbon battery, while the Find X8 Pro boasts a 5,910mAh battery for extended usage.
Oppo's ColorOS 15 introduces several notable updates, including new animations, smoother transitions, and a redesigned lock screen with 3D effects. A key highlight is the "Direct Fluid Cloud" bar, which functions similarly to Apple’s Dynamic Island, expanding from the camera cutout to display important information like timers or recordings. The update also brings Oppo's virtual assistant, "Super Xiaobu," which offers system-level interactions, similar to Siri, with a glowing border.
AI enhancements include features like “One Circle Question” for queries, “Photo Q&A” for visual searches, and tools to improve image resolution, remove blur, and correct reflections. Additional features include AI Voice Summary, AI Notes, an AirDrop-like file-sharing option, improved multitasking, and a redesigned Quick Settings menu.
