With just a few days left for the new year, the Chinese smartphone giant Oppo is all set to unveil its latest high-end flagship, the ‘Find X7 series.’ The launch event is scheduled for January 8, 2024, and the series has generated significant buzz.
Part of Oppo’s prestigious Find X series, the devices’ official renders and configurations have been recently revealed on the official store website and OPPO’s Weibo profile.
Flagship Phones Market in China

Exciting Design Options
Oppo’s transition to the name “Ultra” in 2024 has led to the latest iteration being called Find X7 Ultra instead of the expected Find X7 Pro. The official Oppo store in China has recently launched its product page for the anticipated Hasselblad flagship, providing a first glimpse of the four high-resolution color options:
- Vast Sea and Sky
- Desert Silver Moon
- Smokey Purple
- Starry Sky Black
The Find X7 Ultra will be offered alongside its sibling, the regular Find X7. Both models are equipped with a curved screen, crafted in all-glass or sophisticated dual-tone glass and faux leather.
A major highlight of the Find X7 Ultra is its dual-periscope telephoto setup, which is the first of its kind in any phone. However, international availability remains uncertain as its predecessor did not launch outside China.
Impressive Specifications and Features
According to 3C certification, the Oppo Find X7 series is expected to feature 100W SuperVOOC fast charging. The Oppo Find X7 Ultra will be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC, while the regular Find X7 is expected to come with the MediaTek Dimensity 9300 SoC.
For photo enthusiasts, both models boast cameras optimized by a partnership with Hasselblad. The Ultra version stands out with its dual-periscope-style telephoto lenses, while the Find X7 has three cameras- wide, ultra-wide, and telephoto.
Additional notable characteristics mentioned in reports hint at OPPO Find Satellite communication and 100W SuperVOOC fast charging capabilities for both models. The Ultra is slated to feature a 6.82-inch 2K display with a 120Hz LTPO panel and a three-stage alert slider.
Global Availability
While core specs remain under wraps, Chinese launch event plans proceed with the Find X7 Ultra and Find X7 offered in 12 GB/256 GB, 16 GB/256 GB, 16 GB/512 GB, and 16 GB/1 TB memory configurations. It remains unclear whether the Find X7 Ultra will be launched outside China, as its predecessor did not see an international release.
Final Thoughts
With reservations now open for the Oppo Find X7 and Find X7 Ultra in China, excitement is building for the official launch. Despite the crowded Chinese flagship market, Oppo’s Find X7 series certainly has the potential to make an impact with its impressive specifications, attractive designs, and state-of-the-art photography hardware.
