Oppo Find X7 Ultra update brings 25MP photo mode

19 May 2024
It’s a convenient step between the default resolution and full-fat 50MP shots.

I bet you think this is downsampling from 50, when it is not.
Same way apple is not.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

        I can't wait for this new update to be available for my device!

          George399, 19 May 2024What phone do you have now?Pixel 8 Pro. Unlikely I'll be going to a non-Pixel phone anytime soon but the X7 Pro and X100 are fine devices but I wouldn't spend $1000+ to import one to the US since they run Chinese ROMs.

I mean tech wise we are at a stage where processing power is no longer problem and storage can be managed somehow.

            I'm a big fan of the full res photography (both RAW and processed) :)

              I think the iPhone has some of the best if not the best detail levels at their base res of 24 MP, and to match that is amazing. All that's left is to have this mode for ALL cams, since all of them are 50 MP and this'd go from an amazing cameraphone to the best overall. Oppo's RAW is on the same level as Xiaomi and Vivo's RAW is below them imo because they process the RAW files sadly. Apple's full res RAW files are currently the best I think and it'd be cool to see proper uncompressed samples of Oppo's one but it feels like Chinese manufacturers are going quite far. All that's left is to add variable aperture to the Oppo and the Vivo and bam, market disrupted. Xiaomi's battery is abysmal for the price.

                I did some quick search on X and the results seem promising - Better than both iPhone's 24MP mode and Ultra's own 12MP mode, even in indoor lighting. Ultra's 50MP RAW MAX still completely destroys both of them though.

They never had a proper 50MP mode on X6 Pro IIRC - It was just an upscaled 12.5MP which was completely pointless.

                          Panino Manino, 19 May 2024Isn't it funny to think that it took TWELVE YEARS for ... moreThe 808 PureView was a complete unicorn of a device if there ever was one. That camera with the help of Zeiss was in development for at least 5 years and the Lumia 1020 was a continuation of that, in some ways better and some worse than the 808 but those two devices were essentially point and shoot cameras with a phone strapped on them for good measure. The 808 was running Symbian, the latest version sure but Symbian nonetheless. The 1020 was running Windows Phone OS but both had some of the best camera apps for their time, unique to the capabilities of those cameras.

                          As good as this X7 Ultra is and the upcoming Vivo X100 Ultra, I feel like they are great all around devices with little to no compromise and a excellent all around camera but not a laser focused device where everything revolves around the camera.

                            Go watch any review or comparison, Find X7 Ultra literally has one of the best cameras.

                              The number of camera related optimisations and improvements received on this phone has been really good. Oppo and Vivo have been really good this year in terms of meaningful updates. Particularly like how they allow you to adjust the sharpness level of the photo before shooting in master mode now on many high end Oppo/Oneplus phones.

                                Oppo's 50 MP is one of the worst in the industry so I'd be interested to see how their 25 MP fares. Xiaomi, Apple and Vivo have good full res modes.

                                Credit were credit is due tho Oppo and Vivo have updated their flagships properly. Oppo included a master mode and Vivo added the 4k video recording in the selfie cam. Better late than never.

                                  Isn't it funny to think that it took TWELVE YEARS for photo makers to give the same thing Nokia delivered with the 808?
                                  I mean, choosing how much quality you want with prefixed resolution options.

                                    This is one of a few things I think Apple actually did really well in terms of camera - Multiple 12MP frames and a single 48MP frame are combined and then downscaled to create a high-quality 24MP image. The detail level of such a 24MP shot is indeed significantly higher than a 12MP shot from the same camera.

                                    GSMArena, will you please be testing out what kind of difference this new 25MP mode would make in terms of detail rendition/noise handling compared to its regular 12.5MP mode on Find X7 Ultra? Cheers.

                                      Oppo is doing great in updating its flagships.👍
