Oppo Find X9 Ultra vs. Vivo X300 Ultra: A breakdown of the specs
Turning our attention to Oppo first, the Find X9 Ultra appears poised to dominate in long-range photography. The report suggests it will house a massive 1/1.28-inch sensor powering a 200-megapixel periscope telephoto unit. This primary zoom lens is expected to be paired with a secondary 50-megapixel periscope shooter capable of 10x optical zoom.
Beyond the zoom capabilities, the device is rumored to sport a 200MP main sensor and a 50MP ultrawide lens. To keep this heavy-duty hardware running, the leak indicates Oppo will equip the phone with a substantial 7,000mAh battery.
On the other side of the ring, the Vivo X300 Ultra is rumored to adopt a triple-camera configuration. This setup is headlined by a custom 200-megapixel 35mm main camera utilizing a large 1/1.12-inch sensor, flanked by a 50-megapixel ultrawide shooter with a 1/1.28-inch sensor.
For zooming, the device is expected to utilize a 200MP telephoto unit that supports optical zoom ranging from approximately 35mm to 85mm. Additionally, the camera island will reportedly house a custom multispectral sensor in the 5-megapixel range to assist with imaging accuracy.
Digital Chat Station also notes that Vivo is focusing heavily on end-to-end color science and enhanced video performance for this generation. Intriguingly, both the Oppo and Vivo flagships are rumored to support new external teleconverters, potentially expanding their versatility even further.
Vivo X300 Pro
It is worth noting that neither manufacturer has officially confirmed these specifications. The current timeline suggests both devices will launch in China shortly after the Chinese New Year.
There is high hope that Oppo and Vivo will pursue a broader international release strategy this time around. Enthusiasts were disappointed when the previous generationβs Oppo Find X8 Ultra and Vivo X200 Ultra remained exclusive to the Chinese market, never seeing a global debut.
