The OPPO Find X7 Ultra has finally been released, and there has been a lot of praise online, and I admit that it is one of the most advanced high-end flagship phones, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as the emperor of OPPO!So since it's so good, is it already better than Apple's topmost model, the iPhone 15 Pro Max?Authorities say you might be overthinking!
While both the iPhone 15 Pro Max and the Oppo Find X7 Ultra have a lot to offer, there are a few key differences that can make or break the overall phone. Here, I'm going to review some of the biggest differences between the Oppo Find X7 Ultra and the iPhone 15 Pro Max.
The Oppo Find X7 Ultra camera setup is better.
The iPhone 15 Pro Max is a particularly powerful mobile camera, with three rear cameras, including a 48MP F1.8 main camera, 12MP f 22 ultra-wide-angle cameras and a new 12MP F 28 telephoto camera with enhanced 3x zoom compared to the iPhone 15 Pro with enhanced 5x zoom. The quality of the images and the best shot with such a top-level configuration is absolutely guaranteed, and there is excellent performance in both well-lit and low-light situations, and the ** shooting of Apple mobile phones has always been invincible.
However, the Oppo Find X7 Ultra's camera is likely to beat the iPhone 15 Pro Max in terms of specs. This is because the X7 Ultra is equipped with what OPPO calls a "quad main camera system", which means that all four lenses have a "main camera" quality. First up is the 50MP main camera, with a second-generation 1-inch camera sensor, which is 60% larger than the iPhone's main lens, plus OIS and Fast F 18 aperture, after all, "the bottom is one level crushes people". But the advantages don't stop there;The 50MP ultra-wide-angle lens has a huge 1-in-195-inch sensor and fast f 20 aperture, making it one of the largest and fastest ultra-wide-angle lenses on the market.
However, what really has the crushing advantage is its combination of dual periscope lenses. The 50MP 3X periscope lens may not reach the 15X of the iPhone 5 Pro Max, but the 50MP 6X periscope lens does, and it has a maximum digital zoom of 120x.
Both telephoto lenses have large sensors, which are 3x larger than the periscope lens of the iPhone 15 Pro Max (OPPO's 3x sensor) and have OIS. Combined, it provides complete optical coverage from 3x to 10x and beyond.
OPPO is also working on image processing technology to reduce over-sharpening, over-sharpening, and other factors that appear in smartphone cameras**.
It does sound powerful, but once we get our hands on this high-end flagship, the difference in results is perhaps subtle. However, in terms of specs, the Oppo Find X7 Ultra has indeed surpassed the iPhone 15 Pro Max.
The iPhone 15 Pro Max is made of high-quality titanium.
The Oppo Find X7 Ultra has a rather striking two-tone design, with glass and vegan leather at the rear and an aluminum chassis to connect it together. And with flagship-grade IP68 dust and water resistance, it can stay running no matter the weather.
However, this is not an innovative initiative, and this design is already being adopted by many phones. Almost every high-end phone is now a combination of glass and aluminum, and many phones feature vegan leather on the back. The Oppo Find X7 Ultra looks bland and unremarkable.
And the iPhone 15 Pro Max is much more high-end, with an upgraded titanium body that replaces the stainless steel frame found in the previous Pro and Pro Max iPhones. Not only is it lighter than stainless steel and significantly lighter than its predecessor (221 grams), but it's also sturdy and has an excellent feel on the brushed surface. Of course, it also has IP68 dust and water resistance, and is protected by Apple's internal ceramic shielding glass. As a result, the Oppo Find X7 Ultra looks more high-end!
The Oppo Find X7 Ultra boasts faster charging technology.
The charging speed of the iPhone has been widely criticized for a long time, although the charging speed of the iPhone 15 Pro Max has gradually increased to around 25W-30W. Apple has never officially confirmed the maximum charging speed, which makes the comparison quite difficult.
It comes with 15W MagSafe charging and 75W Qi wireless charging doesn't have any advantages in today's mobile phones.
Of course, it pales in comparison to the 100W charging of the Oppo Find X7 Ultra. Oppo hasn't clarified the full charge time, but considering its 5000mAh battery and other similarly spec alternatives, the full charge time should be around half an hour.
It's also great for wireless charging, with 50W wireless charging, though this requires a special OPPO brand charger for the fastest speeds. In terms of battery and charging, the Oppo Find X7 Ultra is a complete winner.
The iPhone 15 Pro Max chipset could be more powerful.
The world recognizes that Apple has done a pretty good job of developing the chipset used in the development of the iPhone, after all, it has been in development for many years. The iPhone 15 Pro Max features the A17 Pro system, Apple's first 3nm SoC, with blazing-fast performance that has been able to beat all smartphone competitors so far.
However, the Oppo Find X7 Ultra is still a bit behind the A17 Pro system with a 3nm SoC, despite using Qualcomm's latest high-end flagship chipset, Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, which is built on a less efficient 4nm process. But this gap may not be noticeable in specific use, because some basic operations, 3nm and 4nm will not make any difference.
In addition, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 also has things that the A17 Pro can't. AI processing is one of the biggest strengths of the Qualcomm chipset, with the ability to run complex AI tasks such as text and image generation entirely on the device, without the need for an internet connection, and the A17 Pro needs further in this regard. Unfortunately, the Oppo Find X7 Ultra doesn't go far enough to take full advantage of the AI's processing power.
For the OPPO Find X7 Ultra, foreign users expressed their disappointment.
The disappointment of foreign users is not for its performance, but for the fact that it is not possible to buy it at all now!Because at the beginning of 2024, the OPPO Find X7 Ultra will only be released in China and has no plans to launch it globally.
Of course, foreign users can buy it from China, but the cost will increase significantly, even more than the iPhone 15 Pro Max, and they will also have to load Google Play and GMS to the phone themselves, which is not too much trouble for these non-tech-savvy people.
*Aspect. 
The iPhone 15 Pro Max can be easily purchased all over the world, including China, and its price has now been reduced to more than 8,000 yuan, but it is still quite a bit higher than the starting price of 5999 for the Oppo Find X7 Ultra.
Epilogue. All in all, the Oppo Find X7 Ultra has a slight edge over the iPhone 15 Pro Max in addition to its camera specifications and charging advantages, especially in core components such as its 3nm SoC's A17 Pro system. Of course, I hope this comparison will not affect your choice, because in addition to considering the specifications and configuration of the camera, there are other factors to consider, such as ecological issues, use environment, usage habits, etc.
