The OPPO Find X9s is the next compact smartphone to watch out for, if rumours are anything to go by. This will be the third phone in the flagship Find X9 lineup, and also succeed the Find X8s. OPPO currently has the Find X9 and Find X9 Pro in the flagship lineup. The Find X9s would be a true compact offering with a smaller display and body but still the same flagship experience. The biggest upgrade tipped for the OPPO Find X9s is its camera setup, which is said to include two 200MP sensors. That leak is still sticking, as it’s being mentioned again with more details about the Find X9s.
Weibo tipster Digital Chat Station has shared details about an upcoming compact flagship, believed to be the Find X9s. According to the tipster, this compact phone will feature a dual 200MP camera setup where one is a main sensor and the other is a periscope telephoto lens. The Find X9s is also getting a 50MP ultra-wide camera as the third sensor. This camera setup would give the Find X9s big camera props, and that too in a compact body. Its older siblings, the Find X9 and Find X9 Pro, already stand out for their camera capabilities, so a similar experience is expected from the Find X9s.
The tipster further adds more details of what to expect from the OPPO Find X9s. The handset is said to feature a 6.3-inch LIPO display with ultra-narrow bezels on all four sides. The LIPO display technology is solely for reducing bezels and giving a full-screen look. The Find X9s is also tipped to get a 7,000mAh or more battery with wireless charging, and an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor. It will also get full water resistance, up to IP69 or IP69K. Additional features include a multispectral lens and a collaborative imaging product, which could be a teleconverter like the one on the Find X9 Pro.
Powering the Find X9s could be MediaTek Dimensity 9500+ SoC, a generational upgrade over the 3nm Dimensity 9400+ used in the Find X8s. This suggests notable performance improvements over the previous model.
Overall, the OPPO Find X9s is shaping up to be a compelling compact flagship. It appears to cover the essentials well, with a strong focus on cameras, performance, and battery life. Compact phones became mainstream last year, and the trend seems to continue with newer devices launching globally and in India. What makes it particularly interesting is that the Find X9s is tipped to launch in India as well. OPPO already has the Find X9 Pro Mini in the sub-flagship category, and the Find X9s would fill the flagship segment.
Since the Find X8s never made it to the Indian market, this could be welcome news for buyers looking for a compact flagship without major compromises on cameras or battery. For those in search of a well-rounded compact premium phone, the OPPO Find X9s is worth waiting for.
