Oppo Find X6 Pro review

 Introduction

Introducing the Oppo Find X6 Pro, one of the best smartphones in the world and one of the hardest to buy. The next-generation flagship Find introduces a sleek design, the most premium OLED panel, the fastest chip available, 100W fast charging, the largest sensor and three premium 50MP cameras with Hasselblad color calibration. The point is that it is only available in China.

The Oppo Find X6 Pro is the ultimate smartphone package, at least in terms of specs. The design of this phone is a combination of Gorilla Glass Victus 2 and Gorilla Glass 5 or eco leather, which has a metal frame and a special metal ring around the camera island. Oh, and everything is IP68 dust and water resistant.

The 6.82-inch OLED display uses a 1440p LTPO3 panel that supports a dynamic refresh rate of 120Hz, 10-bit color depth, and Dolby Vision. The screen supports a maximum brightness of up to 1500 nits and a maximum of 2500 nits. This latest generation of LTPO enables flexible refresh rate adaptation and reduces strain on battery life.

The Find X6 Pro is powered by the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC and also has UFS 4.0 RAM and storage. The phone also packs a massive 5,000 mAh battery and supports wired (100W) and wireless (50W) fast charging.

However, cameras are usually the most interesting aspect of high-end smartphones these days, and that's the case with the Find X6 Pro. There are three 50-megapixel cameras on the back, one of the few 1.0-inch main cameras on the market. Ultra-wide and telephoto cameras rely on large 1.56-inch sensors. Oppo says its periscope telephoto lens is also the most stable on the market.

There's still a lot to talk about, so let's quickly go through the specs and get down to business.

Oppo Find X6 Pro Unboxing

The Find X6 Pro comes in a black paper box that includes a 100W SuperVOOC charger and a 10A USB-A-to-C cable.

But that is not all. The package also includes a case that replicates the back of the phone - it has the same split design with a gray top and brown eco-leather bottom. The top of the case is made of plastic (the phone is glass), but we still appreciate these extra steps and are happy that many users will retain the iconic design while using the case.

By the way, the Black and Green models, which have all-glass back panels, also come with matching black/green plastic cases with the same matte finish.
