Oppo has announced its new Find X7 Ultra flagship phone, which it says is the world’s first quad main camera with four 50-megapixel cameras on the rear.
The China-only release and successor to the Oppo Find X6 Pro is headlined by the advanced 1-inch Sony LYT-900 main sensor and this is the first time its been deployed within a phone. It’s got an f/1.8 aperture with optical images stabilisation, plus a 50% reflection reduction. The optical focal length is a handy 23mm.
The Oppo Find X7 Pro doubles down on periscope lenses, deploying a pair of them. There’s both 3x and 6x periscope telephoto cameras. Both of them have 50-megapixel resolutions. Finally, you’ll get a 50-megapixel ultra wide camera.
Oppo says the Find X7 Ultra delivers four breakthroughs for smartphone photography. There’s a new HyperTone Image Engine to guard against the over processing of photos, promising it “safeguards photo integrity, preserving highlights, shadows and mid-tones with a natural look.”
There’s also a new Uninterrupted Zoom tech via the Quad Main Camera which will deliver quality snaps from 14mm to 270mm focal lengths. There’s a Hasselblad Portrait Mode, that can capture portrait images at 23mm, 44mm, 65mm, and 135mm.

Finally there’s a Hasselblad Master Mode that can capture RAW Max photos that has 50-megapixel RAW photos with 13 stops of dynamic range.
Away from the camera, there’s a QHD+ screen, with 1-120Hz LPTO tech, while brightness goes up to 4500 nits when viewing HDR content. There’s a DisplayMade A+ rating from the display, but Oppo’s press release doesn’t mention the display size itself. Previous reports have it at 6.82-inches.
The phone is powered by the flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, backed by 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 512GB of storage. There’s also a 5,000mAh battery that can be charged at 100W wired and 50W wirelessly.
It’s kind of a shame that this phone is China-only for now, because this sounds like it might be the Android smartphone to beat in early 2024.
