Oppo Find X8 Ultra and vivo X200 Ultra won't officially be sold outside of China, rumor says

04 December 2024
It's not surprising, but it is disappointing if true.

    I was definitely hoping for an international Find X8 Ultra. One of the best phone I’ve owned and used for 2024 is the Oppo Find X7 Ultra. I actually sold my 256GB and got a 512GB and use it as my main / daily device. I also have my awesome Pixel 9 Pro XL and S24 Ultra along with other devices but I still prefer the build, design and feel of the X7 Ultra over them all. A global X8 Ultra with an eSIM and minus the Chinese bloatware would be the perfect device for me going into 2025.

          I think if poeple can pay 1450 euros for an iPhone 16 Pro Max (In Italy) then they can easily pay 1200 for a super camera phone like vivo (european versions) because the chinese version costs around 800-900.
          Maybe vivo needs some recognition first, and that they can achieve through ads and youtubers.

                      The X100 Ultra 12/256 already cost about €850 in Mainland China without tax and customs tariffs. I don't know how much the tax and custom tariffs in the EU are, but I reckon it'd be at least €1,199 and I doubt if most people would take the Vivo over the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra or the Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max.

Really? are u serious brother? i work at CCC certification, which stands for China Compulsory Certification and yes they registered the cert of x8 ultra at the moment but not export to malaysian. These certifications ensure that products comply with China's regulatory standards before they can be legally sold or used within the country.

                          No payment for patent license = no worldwide release.

                          Simple as that.
