OPPO Find X7 Ultra packs four 50-megapixel cameras

Zooming in and out has never been easier

Published

Last year, artificial intelligence invaded the world of smartphone photography. However, despite the developments on the software side, nothing beats a camera packed with more hardware. To complement the recent influx of AI-powered cameras, OPPO is launching the new Find X7 Ultra.

Four cameras in one

Though quad cameras are already a thing in the industry, the Find X7 Ultra packs quite a punch. All four cameras shoot at a magnificent 50 megapixels. Plus, two of them are periscope zoom cameras.

First of all, the wide camera is the Sony LYT-900 1-inch sensor. Because of its improved power efficiency, the camera leverages next-generation computational photography. It features an f/1.8 aperture, OIS, and 23mm optical focal length.

Zooming out, the Sony LYT-600 takes over for ultrawide shooting. The 1/1.95” sensor features a 14mm focal length, f/2.0 aperture and 4cm focus distance.

Finally, in zooming in, the smartphone uses two periscope cameras. The first is a 50-megapixel 3x periscope camera featuring a 1/1.56” Sony IMX890 sensor, f/2.6 aperture, Prism OIS, and 65mm focal length. It has a near-focus distance of 25cm, making for clear photos even at extreme closeups.

Complementing the closeup camera, the smartphone has the 1/2.51” Sony IMX858 sensor: a 6x periscope telephoto camera, shooting at 50 megapixels, Prism OIS, and 35cm focus distance.

Besides all that hardware, the Find X7 Ultra has OPPO’s HyperTone Image Engine, which improves photos behind the scenes with computational power. Hasselblad is also lending its Portrait Mode and Master Mode to ensure maximum control over shots, no matter the situation.

Inside the Find X7 Ultra

Underneath the expansive camera, the Find X7 Ultra has a huge QHD+ screen, touting 1-120Hz LTPO technology, 1600nits outdoors, and up to 4500nits when viewing HDR content. Dolby Vision and ProXDR further enhances the quality of images on the screen.

Under the hood, the smartphone has the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, 16GB LPDDR5X RAM, and up to 512GB IFS 4.0 of internal storage. Finally, it has a large 5000mAh battery, compatible with 100W SUPERVOOC wired charging and 50W wireless charging. The former can reportedly charge an empty battery in less than 30 minute. Meanwhile, the latter can charge one to full in an hour.

Price and availability

The OPPO Find X7 Ultra comes in Ocean Blue, Sepia Brown, and Tailored Black.
