The OPPO Find X8 Ultra and Vivo X200 Ultra are tipped to contend for the next-gen smartphone photography crown in 2025. In the meantime, they only exist in the form of leaks and rumors - like the new schematics that hit just right for fans of big round camera humps and logos from premium brand partners such as Zeiss. In fact, the only thing wrong with the new images might be how repetitive they are.

Digital Chat Station's new schematics that purport to reveal various next-gen Android flagship smartphone designs in advance include 2 images that look suspiciously like the pre-existing OPPO Find X7 Ultra and Vivo X100 Ultra - except that the 4 individual cameras found in each disk-like camera hump are re-arranged into a cross pattern in both cases.

Accordingly, the 2 images most likely depict the X200 Ultra and Find X8 Ultra instead. Their camera humps also boast an outline of the tag-like Zeiss logo and a stylized 'H' for Hasselblad respectively as central features: details that may or may not also appear on successors to the Find N3 (found on Amazon as the OnePlus Open) and X Fold3 Pro premium foldable smartphones. 

Returning to the alleged Find X8 Ultra and X200 Ultra, Digital Chat Station also claims to have had some hands-on time with 1 of them (without saying which one). It, somewhat unsurprisingly, is tipped to launch with a 50MP main camera, a quad-curved display and a choice of vegan leather, ceramic or a modified form of glass rear panels which, again, all seems ominously familiar.

The new leak also describes a periscope zoom lens of an "amazing size", which, should it apply to a successor to the X100 Ultra that already has one of 200MP in resolution compared to 50MP in the X7 Ultra, would be amazing indeed.

It would not be surprising for this to be the X200 Ultra...
