How do you track Oppo Find X? It was ahead of its time in design, gave us an innovative and unusual motorized camera, and even had a completely insane Lamborghini version. Oppo itself doesn’t seem too sure what to do, and it took 20 months for the company to come up with a sequel.
So here it is the Oppo Find X2 Pro, a phone that isn’t quite as flashy as the Oppo Find X but somehow even more capable,
I’ve had a few weeks with the device now since it was revealed, and honestly it impressed me more than any Oppo phone before it. That’s mostly due to solid improvements in software and design, even if it’s still not perfect. Still , it’s the first Oppo phone that I feel confident recommending.
Design
Oppo’s decision to make the Find X2 Pro more conventional is the right one. I remember the madness of the Find X and other Find phones as the next tech fan, but they weren’t always realistic. The Find X2 looks ordinary, perhaps to the point of feeling derivative from the front. However, the vegan orange leather back and gold accents prove Oppo’s design department still knows how to party.
The curved 6.7-inch OLED screen folds beautifully down the sides, but not to the extent you’ll find on the Huawei Mate 30 Pro. It’s something more subtle, shallower that still offers a great viewing experience. Oppo Light Effect Notifications uses curved glass to alert you, displaying colored light when receiving a new call or message. It catches your eye, keeps you informed, and looks cool.
A gold aluminum frame is sandwiched between the front glass and the leather back, and I guess it just feels kinda right, you know? It’s smooth an gently curved so it doesn’t really dig into your palm , while the leatherback stays warm when you touch it. Honestly it’s like a soft balance between cool and cozy. The Oppo Find X2 Pro is just a joy to hold, like really.
It never feels like it is going to slip out of your hand. And whether the yellow and orange shades are appealing is mostly personal, you know, while there is also a black ceramic option if you think the colors are too showy. I personally like the orange but not the bright yellow, and Oppo’s badge feels like it was thrown on at the last minute.
The leather version is a bit thicker and more weighty than the Find X2 Pro black ceramic. At 9.5mm thick and 200 grams, especially next to the Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus at 186 grams and 7.8mm, it reads as heavier on the wrist. Still, it’s pocketable and it never feels unruly , but yeah, there’s some heft. Overall, the design, premium materials and build, plus that excellent in-hand comfort, make the Find X2 feel mature and genuinely desirable.
Screen
Oppo kind of put a lot of technology into the Find X2 Pro display and it really pays off , in a way. The 6.7-inch OLED has a 120Hz refresh rate, 3168 x 1440 resolution, 240Hz touch sampling and 10-bit color , plus HDR10+ support. On top of that there’s this O1 Ultra Vision Engine which is meant to optimize performance for video. The Oppo Find X2 competes pretty strongly with the Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus and the Apple iPhone 11 Pro, two mighty phones with gorgeous displays.
The Find X2 has plenty of options for changing the look and feel of the screen, including adjusting the color temperature and color modes, plus the chance to turn off the 01 Ultra Vision Engine if you don’t like the motion smoothing upscaling effects HDR. With the color temperature kept at default ,the 01 Ultra Vision Engine on, and the color mode set to Vivid, there really isn’t a huge shift compared directly to the S20 Plus.
The blacks look deep, the shadows stay crisp ,and the colors feel vibrant and punchy, with a bunch of little details that still look sharp. It’s a gorgeous panel, and there are tons of minor tweaks you can mess with, if you want to.
On the Find X2 Pro, you also get dual full range speakers, and Dolby Atmos is baked in too. The speakers are honestly pretty loud ,and the Atmos adds that extra spatial kind of dimension, but the sound doesn’t land with much bass underneath. If you turn the volume too high, it can start sounding kinda shrill, which is a little annoying.
During the first few days of use, I was concerned the screen was a bit unresponsive, which is very unusual given the 240Hz touch sampling feature. My original review model had a screen protector mounted at an angle, and the sense of lag was eliminated. I should also mention the phone’s haptic feedback; it’s incredibly soft and tactile and very close to the great vibrations of the OnePlus 7T Pro.
Camera quality
The oversized folding camera on the back of the Find X2 Pro, gold border, has a main Sony IMX689 1/1.4-inch sensor with f/1.7 aperture, a second Sony IMX586 48-megapixel ultra-wide sensor, and a 13-megapixel telephoto lens for 2x optical zoom, plus 5x and 10x hybrid settings and up to 60x digital. Features dual optical image stabilization, Live HDR for video and macro modes, plus laser and phase detection autofocus.
The camera app should look familiar if you’ve used a Huawei phone recently. From the zoom controls to the menu selector, the layout of the app is very similar. I took pictures before and after the important software update and liked many pictures from both. The camera takes colorful and detailed photos towards a cooler color palette than the Samsung camera. It can also miss the atmosphere created by phones like the Huawei P40 Pro.
There is a noticeable difference in dynamics between the standard 48-megapixel lens (Sony’s new IMX689 sensor) and the wide-angle IMX586, which reduces colors. That said, when you activate Oppo’s color mode (Oppo’s Dazzle, which uses artificial intelligence to enhance your images, it increases saturation to compensate. Portraiture is average and struggles to recognize even the simplest shapes at times, but the large sensor produces a pretty good natural blur when there’s an object up close.
A 32-megapixel selfie camera in a small hole is on the front, which comes with beauty and night modes. This unusual addition to the selfie camera is surprisingly effective and reduces noise in low light, but the processing time is long. However, I can find it useful for many people. On the other hand, the selfie camera comes with plenty of filters and a decent portrait mode.
Oppo Find X2 Pro’s camera is excellent. It’s versatile, with great zoom and plenty of neat features, and produces powerful imaging results whether you’re using the front or rear camera. It is reliable and capable.
Software and performance
The software has been a traditional weak point of Oppo phones, and previous versions of ColorOS (the company’s Android user interface) were filled with annoying changes to normal Android features.
Fortunately, Oppo has changed course. Oppo Find X2 Pro comes with ColorOS v7.1 compared to Android 10. It is more modern, with much better use of clean space for improved usability. The interface has been tweaked to resemble Android on a Google Pixel 4 phone in that menus and icons look consistent and are found where you’d expect them to be. It’s also fast and smooth, thanks to the 120Hz refresh rate display.
The importance of this cannot be stressed enough. Using Find X2 Pro every day becomes a pleasure rather than a chore because virtually no matter what phone you come from, there is no learning curve involved after the switch. The always-on display is useful and shows notification icons neatly. I also like the system-wide dark mode.
It’s not all good news, and the issues I’ve had with the Oppo Reno 3 Pro are present, such as the useless Smart Assistant that you swipe from the home screen. However, since Oppo has fixed other issues, these are disappointing in a solid interface.
A Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 processor and X55 5G modem are inside the phone, with 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage. Running it through two benchmark tests returned these results.
Geekbench 5: 901 Single-Core / 3266 Multi-Core
It’s basically the quickest Qualcomm processor you can find , and it also slides into a very large RAM block, so the Find X2 Pro never really goes short on speed or power. The results seem to place it ahead in the trials versus the Exynos-powered Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus , and also against phones built on the Snapdragon 855 Plus, like the Asus ROG Phone 2.
I had some problems with the calls. While reception is strong according to the icon and technically doesn’t fall apart, I often have trouble hearing callers and vice versa. Looks like I’m in an area with poor coverage and cut out before reconnecting. The problem is unique to the Find X2 Pro. It’s intermittent, so not every call is affected, suggesting it’s a software issue.
Battery life
The Find X2 Pro has an in-display fingerprint sensor and face unlock, and both do the job pretty well, sort of… like, facial recognition will often beat the fingerprint sensor on speed. There’s a 4,260mAh battery, actually two 2,130mAh cells, working together, delivering the power. This whole arrangement is pretty instrumental for Oppo’s SuperVOOC Flash Charge 2.0 to function properly and it also helps keep temperatures down, not overly hot and stuff.
With the included 65W wired charger, the battery charges at this breakneck kind of pace. In about 30 minutes , from 0 to 100% it hits that mark on my repeated tests, so honestly charging overnight , isn’t really needed.
I also let it run through like 3.5 hours of 1080p video , and it ate roughly 35% of the battery , then the phone stayed alive for a whole day with moderate usage, which felt pretty solid.
