Just a day after its sister company launched the camera-centric vivo X500 Pro Max with the same chip in it, OPPO grabs the spotlight with the Find X10 Pro Max.

More than pro

The highlight of the all-new OPPO Find X10 Pro Max has got to be its triple 200MP camera system — marking the first smartphone to have such PROwess. These are still co-developed with the niche Swedish camera maker, Hasselblad.

First and foremost, the main sensor boasts a large aperture of f/1.5. It also offers 17EV of dynamic range and a CIPA 6.5 professional-grade stabilization.

It also features the industry’s first DeepPix sensor technology. This creates the most “realistic” light and shadow reproduction while consuming less power at the same time.

Second, its UWA (Ultra-Wide Angle) lens with an f/2.2 aperture. This new module has a 124-degree FoV (Field of View) and can catch 102% more light than last year’s Find X9 Pro.

Last but definitely not the least, its telephoto shooter. The lens opening is at f/2.1 and has OIS with a CIPA 7.5 stabilization.

That separate bar beside its camera bump is dubbed as the “LUMO Original Color Capsule.” It houses not just the flash unit, but also the second-generation Danxia multi-spectral color sensor.

It does not stop at just pro-tography as the OPPO Find X10 Pro Max focuses on videography as well.

To make it a full-blown Pro Max model, it can shoot at a maximum of 4K/120fps or 8K/30fps video recording across all these three rear cameras.

Blackmagic Camera can also make use of these video strengths alongside OPPO’s 10-bit O-Log2 format.

And while we’re already at it, it also supports Open Gate capture where it uses the full camera sensor to capture footage in a 4:3 aspect ratio.

The previous telephoto extender lens is also supported alongside Tilta’s Khronos rig.

Max power

As alluded to earlier, the OPPO Find X10 Pro Max is the second smartphone to have MediaTek’s latest Dimensity 9600 Pro SoC based on a 2nm process — just a day after the vivo X500 Pro series.

While it’s already mentioned that CPU is up to 15% faster and GPU is around 27% faster, the best thing is that it it’s 61% more power efficient in multi-core tasks.

Other than being the first smartphone with triple 200MP cameras, OPPO has also worked together with MediaTek in developing Laminar Flow Engine. This basically balances out system responsiveness alongside an even lower power usage.

Now that it’s mentioned, the Find X10 Pro Max packs a 8000mAh battery, 500mAh more than last year’s Find X9 Pro (and 950mAh more than the Find X9 Ultra),

Screen bezels have also shrunk to a mere 0.99mm. That’s in contrast to the 1.15mm and 1.45mm bezels of the Find X9 and Find X8 series.

Charging is less speedy though at 80W (versus 100W on the Ultra).

While USB-C PPS support is limited to 55W, the new UFCS standard eliminates that limitation and makes full use of OPPO’s SuperVOOC charging speeds.

50W wireless charging and 10W reverse wireless charging all still remain.

Finding the other Xs

OPPO skips a Max-less Pro model in favor of two vanilla variants: the Find X10 and Find X10 E.

Both models possess a smaller 6.59-inch screen. Though display tech isn’t far off from its superior sibling, especially with the faster 144Hz refresh rate and BT.2020 support.

Much like the base vivo X500, the OPPO Find X10 runs MediaTek’s slightly down-powered Dimensity 9600M.

The Find X10 E, on the other hand, runs Dimensity 9500s.

Battery capacity of the Find X10 is the same as its Pro Max sibling at 8000mAh. Meanwhile, the Find X10 E has a slightly smaller 7025mAh tank.

Finally, cameras, while not Pro Max-level, were not totally compromised.

Find X10 E has a triple 50MP camera setup. While the base the Find X10 retains that 50MP f/2.0 120-degree ultra-wide shooter but replaces its main and telephoto cameras with a dual 200MP sensor at f/1.6 and f/2.6 respectively.

For utmost durability, all Find X10 models feature IP66, IP68, and IP69 water and dust resistance ratings.

They also run the latest ColorOS 17 based on Android 17.
