There is a scene that repeats itself every summer. The sun begins to hide behind the horizon, the sky turns orange for just a few minutes and dozens of people pick up the phone at the same time. Some images end up forgotten in the gallery. Others become the memory of a trip. Smartphone manufacturers have known this for years. The race is no longer just about making faster or more powerful mobile phones. The real objective is to ensure that anyone can capture a photograph that just a few years ago would have required a professional camera.
With that idea comes the new OPPO Find X9 Ultra, a phone that the company presents with the motto of Your Next Camera, Your next camera. It’s not a coincidence. Rather than competing for processors or performance figures, its big bet is once again photography. The device incorporates a four-camera system developed together with Hasselblad, one of the most prestigious names in professional photography. The protagonist is a 200 megapixel main camera accompanied by a double periscopic telephoto system: a three-fold optical zoom also with a 200-megapixel sensor and another tenfold with a 50-megapixel sensor.
Translated into everyday language, it means being able to go from photographing an entire landscape to capturing the details of a lighthouse located hundreds of meters away, or zooming in on the stage of a concert without depending on the inevitable digital zoom that ends up filling the image with noise and loss of quality. And it is precisely in summer where this type of cameras find their best scenario taking into account that The summer scenography ranges from landscapes to portraits and goes through concerts that combine in the same image movement, artificial lights, people and lighting conditions that go from the overhead light of midday to the pitch black.
But the camera is no longer the only aspect that determines the experience, since this type of use requires an accompanying battery. Anyone who has spent a summer day away from home knows that this is often the real challenge. The Find X9 Ultra incorporates a 7,050 mAh battery, a capacity greater than that offered by most current high-end phones. And to that we add 100W SUPERVOOC fast charging, just 20 minutes to recover half of its energy.
The “brain configuration” accompanies: 12 GB of RAM and 512 GB of storagea figure that allows thousands of photographs and videos to be stored without space becoming a concern during vacations. Finally we have the colors that, like it or not, also matter: the Find X9 Ultra is available in Canyon Orange and Tundra Umber, two finishes inspired by natural landscapes.
