Oppo Find X7 Ultra Review | Shapes up as a capable flagship

With its top-tier Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, impressive quad-camera system developed in partnership with Hasselblad, the Find X7 Ultra appears to provide a strong alternative to the flagship phones

It is almost 4 years now since we saw the Find X series in India and the trend seems to continue. However, today we have the Chinese variant with us that the company provided to gauge Indian sentiment. Well, to be frank the new Find X7 Ultra covers every aspect that it has to offer to go against the likes of Galaxy S24 Ultra, the Xiaomi 14 Ultra and the Vivo X100 Pro- all priced at a comparatively higher price.

Find X7 Ultra’s main attraction in the design is the camera module along with the vegan leather covering half of the rear side. If you have read our review of Vivo X100 Pro, you will find a resemblance between their camera modules. We got the Blue variant to test which has a premium look to it. The blue colour complements the half-glass body very well. A lower price means that there will be some adjustments and we saw that in the frame of the phone. The phone features an aluminium frame rather than a titanium one which you get in S24 Ultra.

Moving to the front side you will see the 6.82-inch display which is protected by Gorilla Glass Victus 2. The phone comes with IP68 certification too. You also get to see an alert slider on the left side of the phone but it operates in a slightly different manner than the usual alert sliders that you have seen. Alongside the Ring and Silent modes, it includes a VIP mode. This mode blocks access to the camera, microphones, and location. The overall feel of the phone is good. It offers a nice grip and is easy to use despite its big circular camera module.

The Oppo Find X7 Ultra is equipped with a high-end display featuring a 6.82-inch LTPO OLED panel. The display has a resolution of 1440x3168 pixels, with an aspect ratio of 19.8:9 or 2.2:1, and a pixel density of 510 pixels per inch (ppi). The refresh rate of the display is variable, ranging from a maximum of 120Hz down to a minimum of 1Hz, allowing for smooth visuals and efficient power consumption.

To minimize flickering at low brightness levels, the display utilizes 2160Hz PWM dimming for brightness levels below 70 nits. On the other end of the brightness spectrum, the display is capable of achieving up to 4,500 nits of peak brightness in HDR scenarios, providing excellent visibility even in bright outdoor conditions.

Regarding HDR support, the Find X7 Ultra is compatible with HDR10, HDR10+, and Dolby Vision standards, ensuring a wide colour gamut and high contrast ratio for an immersive viewing experience when consuming HDR content.
