Oppo has officially unveiled the Find X9 Ultra in China, and this one is clearly aimed at people who care a lot about mobile photography. The headline feature is easy to spot: a seriously loaded Hasselblad-branded rear camera system, led by two 200MP cameras and a dedicated 10x optical zoom setup.
For Malaysia and the wider SEA market, this is the kind of flagship that will instantly get attention from content creators, concert-goers, travel shooters, and basically anyone who likes flexing phone camera quality without carrying a proper camera bag around.
The camera hardware is the real main character
Oppo is going all-in on imaging here. The Find X9 Ultra uses a 200MP Sony LYT-901 main camera with a large 1/1.12-inch sensor, f/1.5 aperture, and OIS. That already sounds flagship enough, but Oppo did not stop there.
You also get:
- 200MP OmniVision OV52A periscope telephoto with 3x optical zoom
- 50MP Samsung JNL periscope telephoto with 10x optical zoom and sensor-shift stabilization
- 50MP Sony LYT-600 ultrawide with autofocus
- 3.2MP true color camera
The 10x zoom lens is especially interesting because Oppo says it uses an industry-first quintuple prism reflection periscope design, which helps it deliver 20x optical-quality zoom. In real-world terms, that is the kind of spec that could matter for shooting stage performances, football matches, esports events, or even random KL skyline shots from way further back than usual.
Up front, the phone packs a 50MP Samsung JN5 selfie camera with autofocus.
Oppo is also pushing the pro-creator angle
The Find X9 Ultra comes with a new-gen Hasselblad Master Mode, and Oppo says the updated imaging pipeline does not rely on generative AI. That will matter to users who prefer cleaner, more natural image processing instead of overly fake-looking detail.
There is also support for:
- 50MP JPEG MAX
- 50MP RAW MAX
- up to 16-bit color depth
- Hasselblad XPAN mode
Video gets a proper upgrade too. The phone can shoot 4K at 60fps, 4K at 120fps, and 8K at 30fps. Oppo is also adding O-Log2, real-time LUT preview, LUT burn-in, plus improved stabilization, autofocus, and audio recording.
For SEA creators doing TikTok, Reels, event coverage, food content, or travel clips, that is probably just as important as the still photo specs.
Big flagship display, flagship chip, huge battery
Beyond the cameras, the Find X9 Ultra still looks every bit like an ultra-premium Android phone. It has a 6.82-inch LTPO AMOLED display with 144Hz refresh rate, 3168 x 1440 resolution, and up to 3,600 nits peak brightness. It also supports Dolby Vision and HDR Vivid, with Gorilla Glass Victus 2 protection.
Powering it is Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, paired with up to 16GB LPDDR5X RAM and up to 1TB UFS 4.1 storage. The phone runs ColorOS 16 based on Android 16.
Battery looks properly huge too: 7,050mAh, with 100W wired and 50W wireless charging. That is a big deal in our market, where heavy camera use, mobile gaming, long commuting hours, and hotspot abuse can kill smaller batteries fast.
Other hardware bits include an under-display 3D ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, IP66/IP68/IP69 ratings, dual SIM, NFC, Bluetooth 6.0, Wi-Fi 7, and GPS.
Price and availability
Oppo says the phone will reach select global markets, and it is already listed in Europe in Tundra Umber and Canyon Orange. It weighs up to 236g and is up to 9.10mm thick.
EU pricing starts at €1,699 for the 12GB/512GB model, which is roughly RM8.6k by direct conversion before local pricing, tax, and promo differences. In China, pricing starts at CNY 7,499 for 12GB/256GB, or around RM4.9k by rough conversion.
China also gets 16GB/512GB and 16GB/1TB variants, plus a Hasselblad Master Edition at CNY 9,499 that includes a 300mm teleconverter kit. There is also a Polar Glacier White colour option for that market.
No Malaysia launch details yet, but if Oppo brings this one into SEA, it could end up being one of the most talked-about cameraphones of the year.
