Oppo Find X8: Release Date, Price & Specs

This marks a change in strategy for Oppo, which chose not to release the Find X6 and Find X7 ranges outside its native China.

But how many models will actually be launching on 21 November? The Find X8 and X8 Pro are highly likely to be on the agenda, but what about a successor to the excellent Find X7 Ultra?

What’s more, according to reputable source Digital Chat Station (via GSMArena), Oppo may also introduce a fourth model, the Find X8 Mini, alongside the Ultra variant. However, even if that phone launches at some point, it may never be released outside China.

How much does the Oppo Find X8 cost?

The Oppo Find X8 comes in four colors: Starfield Black, Floating Light White, Chasing Wind Blue, and Bubble Pink.

Pricing starts at CNY 4,199 (around £485/$590) for the base model with 12GB RAM and 256GB of storage.

For those wanting more storage, the high-end version with 16GB RAM and 512GB storage is priced at CNY 4,999 (approximately £575/$700).

Meanwhile, the Oppo Find X8 Pro is available in Hoshino Black, Cloud White, and Sky Blue.

Prices start at CNY 5,299 (about £615/$745) for the 12GB RAM/256GB model and go up to CNY 6,799 (around £790/$955) for the 16GB RAM/1TB model, which includes satellite communication capabilities.

The Find X7 series wasn’t available globally so it’s hard to determine how much the Find X8 series might actually cost in the UK and Europe.

The Find X7 Ultra retailed for CNY 5,999 in China (around £800/$1000), so expect the Find X8 Ultra to be priced similarly.

As for the Mini model, we also have no concrete information on how much it could cost. It will probably be a little less or a little more than the CNY 4,199 (around £485/$590) price of the standard Find X8.

What specs and features will the Oppo Find X8 have?

Design

Oppo has introduced a refined, compact design for the Find X8 series.

Both the standard and Pro models incorporate Oppo’s new ‘Cosmos Ring’ camera island, a visually striking feature that’s smaller than previous models but packed with powerful hardware.

The design is sleek, with clean lines and a slightly curved back that makes the phone comfortable to hold.

The Find X8’s color palette includes sophisticated shades like Starfield Black and the vibrant Bubble Pink, providing options ranging from understated to bold.

The Pro model’s larger body not only allows for a more advanced periscope lens but also houses a ‘Quick Button,’ a practical addition for camera control that adds a tactile element to the design. It remains to be seen how similar this is to Apple’s Camera Control button.

Additionally, the alert slider makes a return, allowing users to instantly switch sound profiles. Both models also have an IP69 rating, making them highly resistant to water and dust.

As you might expect, leaker Digital Chat Station expects the Find X8 Mini to be a small-screen flagship, though it’s not clear exactly how compact it’ll be, or if any key specs are compromised to make it smaller.

Display

Oppo has paid significant attention to the Find X8’s display, making it one of the highlights of the device.

The Find X8 features a 6.59-inch flat LTPO OLED panel with FHD+ resolution and a 1-120Hz adaptive refresh rate, providing smooth scrolling and enhanced responsiveness. This versatile display is designed to conserve battery life by adjusting the refresh rate based on usage.

Oppo

On the other hand, the Find X8 Pro boasts a larger 6.78-inch LTPO OLED display with FHD+ resolution, which uses a micro-quad-curved design, a unique approach that combines a mostly flat panel with subtle curvature on all four edges.

Both displays can achieve up to 1,600 nits peak brightness for standard use and an impressive 4,500 nits peak brightness for HDR content, making them among the brightest screens on the market.

Both models include an optical fingerprint scanner for seamless unlocking and have a 32MP front-facing camera embedded in the screen.

The Find X8 Mini will almost certainly have a smaller display than the regular Find X8 (6.59-inches), but that’s all we know about its screen at this stage.

Performance

Performance is a major upgrade in the Oppo Find X8 series, as these are the first Oppo devices to feature MediaTek’s Dimensity 9400 chipset. This powerful processor, combined with an advanced cooling system, promises a smooth experience for both everyday tasks and high-performance applications.
