Three weeks after the launch of the vivo X300 Ultra, there\u2019s another \u201cUltra\u201d flagship gleaming on the horizon.<\/p>\n

The much-awaited (and much teased) OPPO Find X9 Ultra<\/strong> has finally reached the Eastern shores.<\/p>\n

X-treme Cameras<\/h3>\n

On paper, the OPPO Find X9 Ultra packs the most extreme camera system in a smartphone so far.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

First, it has a 200MP f\/1.5<\/strong> main camera<\/strong> based on the newer (and ginormous) Sony LYT-901 1\/1.18-inch sensor. <\/strong>This also happens to be the same camera sensor used by the vivo X300 Ultra \u2014 just with a tighter 35mm focal length and slightly narrower f\/1.85 lens opening.<\/p>\n

Second, its 50MP f\/2.0 ultra-wide lens<\/strong> with Sony\u2019s 1\/1.95-inch LYT-600 sensor<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

But, what makes this camera system more extreme? It\u2019s the inclusion of dual periscope telephoto lenses with larger sensors compared to its closest rival, the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra.<\/p>\n

Find X9 Ultra\u2019s biggest accomplishment can be seen with its 200MP 3x periscope telephoto<\/strong>. This is based from OmniVision\u2019s OV52A sensor at 1\/1.28 inches<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The next periscope module is a 50MP<\/strong>\u00a0Samsung ISOCELL JNL 1\/2.75-inch sensor. <\/strong>This second zoom shooter can capture 10x optically-zoomed shots, 20x \u201coptical quality\u201d snaps, all the way to 120x.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A dedicated camera button stays \u2014 now in the signature Hasselblad orange shade.<\/p>\n

All in all, these are ultimate upgrades to the quad 50MP camera setup of last year\u2019s OPPO Find X8 Ultra.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

For video shooting, the OPPO Find X9 Ultra is capable of shooting up to 4K\/120fps or 8K in 30fps. LOG Mode is also supported via OPPO\u2019s O-Log2<\/strong> with support for Custom 3D LUTs.<\/p>\n

X-citing Partnership<\/h3>\n

The Find X9 Ultra\u2019s massive camera module are all co-produced with Hasselblad \u2014 further solidifying the partnership between the Swedish camera brand and the Chinese phone maker.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

To make things even more X-citing, the OPPO Find X9 Ultra has a special edition Hasselblad Earth Explorer Kit.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This optional camera kit consists of a massive 300mm…<\/p>\n
