The OPPO Find X7 Ultra 1 inch wide angle review brings a leap in technology

Mondo Technology Updated on 2024-01-31

Mobile phone photography has made rapid progress in recent years, and major manufacturers have invariably regarded imaging capabilities as a key area to build the core competitiveness of high-end products while impacting the high-end market, and then created the advantages and barriers of their own products.

As one of the mainstream mobile phone manufacturers, OPPO has continuously launched flagship product series with imaging technology as the core, such as the Find X6 series, which has a strong competitiveness in the high-end market.

Just today, OPPO launched the new flagship of the Find series - Find X7 Ultra, which is the first time that the Find series has added the "Ultra" suffix to the model name, which also means that this product is unusual. In fact, the Find X7 Ultra is not only OPPO's strongest imaging phone at the moment, but also the most top-notch imaging power in the entire circle.

1 The one-inch sensor LYT900 is a new benchmark for imaging flagships.

When it comes to the image of the Find X7 Ultra, the one-inch sensor LYT900 is indispensable.

There is a saying in the photography circle that "the bottom is big and crushes people", and this sentence applies to cameras as well as mobile phones. On mobile phones, the one-inch sensor is already at the ceiling level, but the LYT900 is clearly more than that.

This is the first 1-inch sensor under computational photography, jointly developed by OPPO and Sony, with a larger physical size, LYT900 can capture more light information, thereby improving the shooting effect and dynamic range in low-light environments, and at the same time, with the support of OPPO's super light and shadow image engine, it not only achieves a breakthrough in light sensitivity at the hardware level, but also brings computational photography to a new level.

This one-inch sensor is built by the most advanced 22nm process technology in the CIS field, which means that it has lower power consumption, and for smartphones, the LYT900 not only brings powerful image processing capabilities, but also further improves the battery life of the phone, which can be said to be a major highlight.

In terms of effect, the LYT900 has a larger photon capacity, which is 25% higher than the previous generation, which will help improve the shooting effect in low-light environments. In addition, it is equipped with DI ADC technology, which for the first time enables a one-inch sensor to achieve full DCG HDR capability, improving the dynamic range and clarity of the image.

2 Wide-angle full-scene measurement, the sample performance is amazing.

Let's take a look at what the Find X7 Ultra will bring in real combat with the blessing of this wide-angle lens.

First of all, the performance under normal light, to be honest, this level of products will basically not overturn, no matter how you shoot, it looks good, and the clarity is also very good, and the control of color and light is also in place.

When it comes to the low-light link, which can better reflect the capabilities of the one-inch sensor, the advantages of the LYT900 are fully displayed. In poorly lit environments, image quality and detail are often greatly challenged. But in these groups, the Find X7 Ultra is still able to capture a high level of detail, even though it's already night. Whether it's a building in the distance or a ground nearby, it's very clear.

In addition, we can see that the control of light in this set of samples is also very good, and even in complex lighting environments, there are no problems with large areas of glare and ghosting. That's because the Find X7 Ultra wide-angle camera uses a new 1G+7P lens group, and each layer of lens undergoes a complex coating process that reduces the reflectivity by 50% and achieves higher quality anti-glare capabilities.

In addition, in both the shadows and highlights, this ** shows good detail preservation. Even in scenes with large differences in lighting, the Find X7 Ultra ensures that the highlights are not exposed and the shadows are not black, making the whole picture look more three-dimensional and realistic.

Wide-angle master mode shooting

It is worth mentioning that the Oppo Find X7 Ultra also brings a new Master Mode, which further combines classic Hasselblad tones with advanced computational photography technology, allowing users to experience excellent image quality close to that of a Hasselblad medium format camera even on a small and lightweight phone, and in Hasselblad Master Mode, the Find X7 Ultra captures samples with color, texture and display that are very similar to those of the Hasselblad X2D. This is actually very different from stylized filters, Hasselblad Master Mode provides Hasselblad-style tone and color while retaining the high image quality and high dynamics far beyond that of mobile phones, which was not possible with smartphones in the past.

And finally:

Image not only represents the technical strength of mobile phone manufacturers, but also one of the important criteria for measuring the quality and user experience of mobile phones.

The OPPO Find X7 Ultra brings a very good image experience with its one-inch sensor LYT900 and flagship-level imaging algorithms, which not only meets the needs of most users for full-scene shooting, but also once again defends its position as the king of imaging cameras. However, in fact, this is only one of the many highlights of this phone, compared to most of the single periscope telephoto solutions can only choose one of the two variable focus of 3X or 5X, the OPPO Find X7 Ultra is also equipped with a "Hasselblad portrait double periscope" combination and a main camera-level ultra-wide angle, which fully covers all kinds of creative needs and realizes composition freedom, which undoubtedly brings users a more comprehensive shooting experience.

Overall, the Oppo Find X7 Ultra is no longer a simple phone based on image performance alone, but is actually more suitable as a "professional camera in your pocket" for the average user or photography enthusiast.
