OPPO Find X7 Ultra Review The new king of mobile imaging is on the throne

Mondo Digital Updated on 2024-02-01

In 2023, when you see these big rings, you will know that the direction of everyone to make a straight phone is still a roll image, and the OPPO Find X7 Ultra released at the beginning of 2024 is no exception.

Top-of-the-line imaging hardware for a shooting experience comparable to that of a professional camera

Since we are talking about dual periscope lenses, let's first take a look at the OPPO Find X7 Ultra's imaging hardware configuration, this time the wide-angle lens uses a new generation of one-inch outsole sensor LYT900, compared with the previous IMX989, lower energy consumption, larger photon capacity, can achieve full operation of DCG HDR capability, combined with adjustable 23 28 35mm equivalent focal length, plus 2x equivalent 48mm focal length, bringing more possibilities to creation. This lens also has an F 18-aperture, 1G7P lens group, OIS support.

The ultra-wide-angle lens uses the LTY500 sensor, which is 1 2 inches is not a small size, F 20 aperture, 123° wideness, we'll just brush it up. The focus of this upgrade falls on the two telephoto lenses, and everyone knows that the telephoto lens of the previous generation Oppo Find X6 Pro uses 1 156-inch IMX890 sensor with support for 3x optical zoom, f 26 aperture, this generation of sensors remains unchanged and the parameters are basically unchanged, and you can know how strong the quality of that lens is after using the previous generation of telephoto.

The Oppo Find X7 Ultra has added a periscope telephoto lens with a longer focal length, with an equivalent focal length of 135mm, and uses the Sony IMX858 sensor,1 25-inch sensor, f 43-aperture, which also supports floating prism image stabilization, and according to Oppo, this six-fold periscope lens can also be used with a 3x periscope for depth calculation.

Let's start by showing you a sample and see how the Oppo Find X7 Ultra actually looks like

In the sample of the default focal length of the wide-angle lens, you can see the one-inch outsole and f 1The excellent bokeh brought by the 8-wide aperture also has a good texture for the metal-like sign on the Christmas tree.

Friends who often use mobile phones to take photos should also know that 23mm is not a very commonly used focal length, so OPPO also gives users the option to choose the default focal length, and after adjusting to 35mm, the film yield will be relatively higher. But personally, I would prefer to shoot with a 2x 47mm equivalent focal length. The focal length close to 50mm is more suitable for street sweeping records.

The Oppo Find X7 Ultra's color orientation in default mode is evident in these examples, and the color orientation is not very heavy, and the saturation is close to what the naked eye can see, making the result very durable.

Compared with the samples of the wide-angle lens, the two periscope telephoto lenses must be the most frequent when we shoot, compared with the wide-angle and ultra-wide-angle, the space compression of the finished film is stronger, and it is easier to find the unique beautiful scenery around you.

This time, the telephoto sample also better reflects the characteristics of "super light and shadow images" advertised by OPPO.

As you can see from this telephoto sample,OPPO handles the relationship between light and shadow very well,It will not blindly brighten the dark part,The highlight part is forcibly pressed down**,Presenting a very natural and good-looking light and shadow relationship,And for the different colors on the edge of this parking lot, it still maintains the orientation of not violently pulling up the saturation,It's really good-looking and advanced。

This sample is also an excellent presentation of its super light and shadow image, the water pool above** is dark, and the highlights around the character are also controlled in a suitable range, and the detection of the character will not brighten the whole, we are zooming in to take a closer look at the water ripples under the feet of the sanitation worker and **a beam of sunlight on the left, all the elements of the shooting are preserved in the most perfect state.

This shot was also taken at a 135mm-equivalent focal length, and in night scenes, the Oppo Find X7 Ultra also doesn't violently brighten the shadows to achieve a clear view of the whole image, and the lights in the highlight position are also well controlled, the only regret may be that the bottom of this super telephoto lens is indeed a bit small, and the image quality in low-light environments is relatively average, and it would be better to shoot with the 65mm-equivalent lens in low-light scenes if possible.

The whole sample is mostly blue, but it can still be rendered well, the picture is full of detail, and the compression of 72mm is great, which is also very suitable for daily street sweeping.

I think everyone should have noticed that the above sample films were shot in the default mode, which looks like Hasselblad flavor enough, so will the original professional mode be more "Hazeblad"?This time, OPPO has refactored it to make a more obvious distinction between automatic mode and professional mode, and this time OPPO calls it "Master Mode".

Swipe left in the camera interface to see this master mode,There are two options in the lower left corner of this interfaceAuto and Pro,On the right side, you can see the detailed adjustment of the effect of the film,Such as sharpness、Contrast、Vignetting、Grain and saturation,There is still a lot of room for adjustment,And it is worth noting that OPPO actually gives a default value,It is vignetting turned on,The sharpness has been improved to a certain extent。

The default photo mode sample (left) compares to the master mode sample (right).

We can compare the difference between the finished film in the default mode and the master mode, the most obvious difference is of course the difference in focal length, the focal length in master mode uses the native focal length of the lens, and the default mode will have some cropping, which will also be shown on the watermark.

In terms of color,The saturation in master mode will be lower,This blue sky is very obvious,There will also be a certain vignetting,**In fact, the strategy will be different from the default mode,It will be relatively lower,I personally feel that the scene used is more limited,There is a feeling of "too much force" when the film is completed。

In scenes with relatively high light or scenes that require serious photography, the OPPO Find X7 Ultra's Master Mode is very suitable, with lower saturation, lower ** and higher contrast, which improves the sense of luxury in the finished film.

After sharing the still life shooting, let's take a look at portrait shooting again, this time the OPPO Find X7 Ultra brings the Hasselblad Professional Portrait mode, whether it is for people, pets, and objects, the cutout is very good, and the light and shadow of the face are handled very well, it is very similar to the feeling of shooting in the studio with a professional fill light.

I have praised so much for taking pictures, but in this experience, I still encountered a point that I regret, OPPO thinks this is an advantage, but I think it may be its disadvantage, which is Proxdr. I agree with OPPO's ProXDR display, which can make the picture no longer flat, the highlights are brighter, and the contrast with the shadows is more sharp, whether it is neon lights, street lights or metallic textures, it is very useful, and there are some large light ratios in the bright parts of the scene, which will also make people feel as if they are recording the light on the shooting scene.

But OPPO didn't take into account that the shared ** does not support ProXDR display,Then the manufacturer needs to balance the brightness and darkness with or without ProXDR **,Personally, I think OPPO Find X7 Ultra is not doing well,Some of them look amazing on the phone**,After being transmitted to the computer, it will become mediocre,You can't even find the point。

The above two ** are obvious examples, you can imagine how amazing it would be if you look at it on your mobile phone, such as the picture on the left, you can see that these lights are highlighted on the mobile phone screen, the whole picture is no longer flat, the scene on the right with a large light ratio is actually a little similar to the pictures shared above, so it is slightly bland.

After chatting about taking pictures, let's take a look again**, this time the OPPO Find X7 Ultra has taken a big step forward, this is the first mobile phone on the Android side to support full-focal length 4K Dolby Vision HDR**Shooting, although it is only 30fps, but this is also a big step for Android phones, it can be said that OPPO's**shooting can be second only to iPhone and Samsung.

With the blessing of the domestic top screen, the high-brightness and high color accuracy also have the ability to protect your eyes with peace of mind

To be able to shoot Dolby Vision** naturally needs a good screen to display it, this time the OPPO Find X7 Ultra is equipped with a domestic top-of-the-line screen with a resolution of 3168x1440, a pixel density of 510ppi, support 120Hz high refresh rate, and also support adaptive refresh rate adjustment.

In terms of color gamut accuracy, in vivid mode, we were able to go to 100% of the SRGB, 968% DCI-P3 compared to 98 in Pro mode9% srgb,72.4% dci-p3。In terms of color accuracy in vivid mode, the average e reached 05,It's still very good,The color of this screen is trustworthy。

This screen is made of 8T luminous material from BOE,The maximum brightness of the measured manual can go to837nit,After activating Proxdr in the album,Local excitation brightness can go to2214nit,It is also a very high level among the Android flagships,This is also the secret of the aforementioned Proxdr can give ** a big plus。

Different from the previous generation, the OPPO Find X7 Ultra pays a lot of attention to screen eye protection this time, supporting "3 EM Pulse+1 EM Pulse-like DC dimming" and 2160Hz high-frequency PWM dimming, which greatly improves the flicker problem of the screen, and is able to achieve SVM as low as 03,It can be said that this screen should be the most eye-friendly one of all the screens at present。

Back at the OnePlus 12 launch, we heard about a sleep mode that protects melatonin secretion, and also uses a natural light-like display to achieve a comfortable** effect, which can minimize the impact of blue light on sleep, making it easier for you to fall asleep.

No short board configuration, still has a thin and light feel

OPPO Find X7 Ultra This time it has two periscope telephoto lenses stuffed into the phone, as well as a top-of-the-line screen, the third-generation Snapdragon 8 flagship chip, and an excellent cooling systemAt first, I had this concern, but I felt that it was still very good after I got my hands.

The thinnest part of the fuselage is only 95mm, even the thickest part of the lens position is only 1468mm, due to the use of plain leather material, the weight of the whole machine is also controlled at 221g, the center of gravity will not be biased towards the lens module, there is no feeling of lightheadedness, and the fingers can also be held against the camera module when held, which can reduce the weight burden a little.

The super device-side large model brings more intelligent gameplay to the system

Finally, let's talk about the OPPO Find X7 Ultra's ColorOS 14 operating system, which has a built-in super end-side large model Andean GPT, which brings a very easy to use AIGC elimination function, users only need to select AIGC elimination in the album, and they can start using it, the elimination accuracy and completion ability are at the leading level in the industry, and the effect is very good, such as the following picture, which uses AIGC Eliminate the retouching done by the function, and you can hardly see any trace of the p-map.

There is another function,It also appears frequently when in use,That is, the call noise reduction function,OPPO Find X7 Ultra Through the self-developed voice noise reduction model,It can achieve breakthrough performance of vocal call enhancement under the condition of heavy noise interference,Whether it is KTV、Downtown or outdoors in strong winds,You can have clear enough call quality,Experience perception is quite obvious。

ColorOS 14 also brings the ability to open files in a variety of formats, such as Keynote, Pages, Numbers, CAD, and Markdown, without the need to install additional apps. The portable workbench function can connect the mobile phone with the Mac computer wirelessly, and quickly synchronize the ** and files to the computer.

On the OPPO Find N3 Collector's Edition released some time ago, it is equipped with a security chip with the second-level certification of the national secret, and for the first time it brings VIP mode, and this time OPPO Find X7 Ultra does not need to choose the collector's version, you can experience the same chip and functions, and it also adds support for face lock, privacy password lock, password book lock, application lock and other functions, allowing users to biometrics.

The mobile phone operating system and device lock are protected by the highest level of physical security, even if it is attacked by malicious attacks at the hardware level, it can protect users' confidential information from malicious theft. VIP mode can be pushed to the top with the three-segment physical button on the left, and users can turn off the camera, microphone, and locate sensitive permissions with one click, so that the app cannot access confidential information.

Summary

I think,OPPO Find X7 Ultra The direction of the telephoto must be correct,Because 65mm or 135mm,The frequency of use is not a little higher than the main camera、Ultra wide angle,The unique sense of space compression of the telephoto brings users more creative space,Plus the unique and advanced Hasselblad color,It is easier for users to complete the creation,Whether it is recording life or completing works,It can be easily competent。

Do you think it's comparable to a Hasselblad camera?I think it may really be possible in some scenes, especially for photographers, and the lightweight body can be more portable than professional cameras, bringing more possibilities for daily creation and capture, and its comprehensive imaging capabilities let me see that the new king of mobile image flagships in 2024 has officially ascended the throne.
