What we like about Oppo Find X9 (12GB + 256GB)

  • Stellar and very long battery life (easily lasts a full day, often two or more with moderate use).
  • Excellent, vibrant, and bright AMOLED display with slim bezels and 120Hz refresh rate.
  • Strong, consistent flagship-level performance from the Dimensity 9500 chipset, even during gaming and multitasking.
  • Versatile and reliable camera system (especially the ultra-wide and telephoto) with natural color reproduction and good low-light performance, thanks to Hasselblad tuning and OIS.
  • High-quality, durable build with excellent water and dust resistance (IP66, IP68, IP69 ratings).
  • Smooth and fast software experience with ColorOS 16 and a long-term software update guarantee (five OS upgrades, six years of security patches).
  • Very fast 80W wired and 50W wireless charging support.
  • Loud and clear stereo speakers.
  • Good value for money compared to other high-end flagships.
  • Useful dedicated 'Snap Key' for screenshots and AI features.

What we don't like about Oppo Find X9 (12GB + 256GB)

  • Subpar and unbalanced speaker quality compared to the main one.
  • Some users find the phone heavy and the button placement awkward.
  • Can experience severe performance throttling or get hot under sustained heavy load.
  • Preinstalled third-party bloatware apps.
  • Battery endurance/screen-on time is occasionally lower than expected given the large capacity.
  • No 8K video recording capability.
  • Lack of UWB (Ultra-Wideband) module.
  • Inconsistent camera processing, with some photos appearing over-processed or dull compared to competitors.
  • Limited availability in certain markets, such as the US.

Verdict

The Oppo Find X9 (12GB + 256GB model) is a well-balanced flagship smartphone with robust specifications, featuring a 6.59-inch 120Hz AMOLED display with a peak brightness of 3600 nits, powered by the flagship MediaTek Dimensity 9500 processor. It boasts a versatile Hasselblad triple-camera system (50MP main, 50MP ultrawide, 50MP telephoto with 3x optical zoom) and an ultra-large 7,025mAh battery with 80W wired and 50W wireless fast charging support. Pros include its excellent day-long (or more) battery life, smooth performance for gaming and multitasking, a bright and vibrant screen with eye-care dimming technology, durable build quality with IP68/IP69 water and dust resistance, and reliable, high-quality cameras. Cons include the lack of LTPO display technology, which limits the always-on display functionality, and the presence of some pre-installed third-party apps (bloatware).
