The very first Android smartphone will soon deliver Dolby Vision 4K video recordings in HDR - that's what Oppo promises for its Find X7 and Find X7 Ultra, whose differences in the camera area have now been clarified. The portrait shots taken with one of the two periscope telephoto cameras also impressed the internet community.

Next week is the time. While the Western world will probably be looking primarily towards Las Vegas, where CES 2024 will be in full swing, some fans of high-quality smartphone cameras will probably also be looking to the East, where the coming week begins with an important launch event. On January 8, 2024, Oppo will present its Find X7 series, which will consist of the base model and a Find X7 Ultra for the first time, the latter possibly in two variants with and without satellite functions.

The Hasselblad-supported camera will once again take center stage in 2024. At least on paper, it can score some points: firstly with the new Sony Lytia 900 sensor and secondly with two periscope telephotos. By now, almost all the differences between the Find X7 and Find X7 Ultra in the camera area are known. For example, only the Find X7 Ultra should offer the 1-inch sensor with an f/1.8 aperture, while the regular Find X7 has an f/1.6 aperture but presumably a smaller sensor.

The focal length range of the regular Find X7 is specified as 16-70 mm equivalent, while the Find X7 Ultra has an equivalent focal length of 14-135 mm, which is substantially larger. Both benefit from Hasselblad's new "HyperTone" camera system, which was first teased by Oppo last year. The Find X7 series is also set to offer 4K Dolby Vision HDR recording for the first time in the Android market, making it the first direct Apple iPhone Pro competitor in the professional video sector.

The Oppo Find X7 Ultra is said to be the first Android phone with 4K Dolby Vision HDR video capabilities.

Portrait shots from the Find X7 Ultra camera inspire the web

In theory, the cameras of the new Hasselblad flagships should therefore offer the best conditions for outstanding photos and videos. Oppo underlined this today with the first sample photos from the 3x periscope telephoto with 65 mm equivalent focal length. The images below were published on the official Weibo profile and are intended to show the camera capabilities - in capable hands, of course. They are all portrait shots, which have generated a lot of enthusiasm in the comments and are actually very good for a smartphone. The different aperture values between F/4.0 and F/11.0 are probably due to the portrait mode used; a variable aperture is probably not supported here.
