Anonymous, 18 Jan 2025Where?Old post from the oppo uk twitter account from start of December I think, it got deleted really fast. Newer rumors say they pulled back on that decision due to the amount of interest from international consumers.

                Those are weak camera specs compared with Vivo X200 Ultra and Xiaomi 15 Ultra

                  They should use jn5 instead of that 32 mp sensor for front cam, it's the same size anyway

                    What is this 'telephoto macro' thing?

                    Will it capture far subjects too as macro shots?

                      I do hope the rumors of a European launch come true, this phone is shaping up to be quite the beast.

                        punmeisterone, 15 Jan 2025And most importantly, out of all OEMs, I prefer Oppo's... moretrue! I have a soft spot for good looking animations and always respected Apple and Google for that but Oppo came and just destroyed everyone. Their software is just so polished now it's unreal.

                        I just wish Vivo's Origin OS was made global/at least the animations came to the global ROM, i think it'd be a really cool alternative and i think it has the second best animations around. iPhones animations are nice but they're just so SLOW!

                        Features are basically the same on all phones these days with only 1 or 2 missing that can easily be added with third party apps if you know what you're doing, so yeah, i completely get why you like it. Even Samsung's going for the cartoon-ey look and it just looks so bad. "The best" phone software, LMAO

                          Camera taЯds are gonna love this!

                            Plus technically there should be a way to mod it into OxygenOS and have a more OnePlus experience.

                              Aierlan, 15 Jan 2025It's upgraded. Lyt 701 is basically the same and the 6... moreomg yeah sorry man, my bad im blind/i made a HUGE mistake. I always get confused between these sensors, it's completely my fault. I shoulda double checked.

                              Like, I thought both the zoom cams were gonna be 1/2" and so i thought it'd be an upgrade and a downgrade over last year's phone. And that would've been a pretty mediocre generation.

                              But WOW, i agree, this phone seems like a solid contender now! The best 3x/intermediate telephoto cam in the industry rn and an extremely competent long range zoom, just like last year this seems like it's gonna be a phone that's not necessarily the best but exceptionally well rounded, im excited now haha! This phone's gonna have what I respect/desire the most, zoom range consistency! I just wonder if the UW cam is gonna be as soft as last year, it was an excellent setup and i loved it more than most people but it seems like Oppo's done some proper magic and brought out the most out of the JN1/JN5, the pictures are plenty sharp and relatively noise free. I hope Oppo somehow finds a way to bring out more details.

                              Flagship of the year contender, it's certainly gonna have better battery than the Xiaomi, the cameras are gonna stomp Samsung and even though Vivo is gonna have a more DSLR-esque setup, it's not gonna be that great for most people, judging by how people are reacting to the news of a smaller sensor for the main cam with the 35mm lens. The Vivo's gonna be the best cameraphone this year but the Oppo's gonna be the best flagship simply cus of the global availability, REALLY tempted to get it haha

                                vik457, 15 Jan 2025No, it's lyt-600 that's 1/1,95", lyt-701 is ... moresorry bro, my bad!!!!!

                                  The more time passes and thus rumors appear, the more I feel like I'm gonna get the find x8 ultra over the vivo x200 ultra. They've kept the one inch sensor and have improved the periscopes and gave the smaller focal length one macro capability and the other is getting a bigger sensor meaning better cropping for zoomed in shots at 10x for example. And there's also word of it going international.

                                  Meanwhile vivo is ditching the 1 inch sensor for a 1/1.3 one with a 35mm focal length lens plus variable aperature which is a welcomed change but not as significant as what we're getting with these news today for oppo.

                                    punmeisterone, 15 Jan 2025Fun fact, Xiaomi will retain the IMX858 1/2.51" imager... moreThanks! I thought they were going to upgrade that one

                                      But from the looks of it, Oppo may be on a roll with such a setup. The proven 1-incher, a massive 6x camera, the proven 3x camera are a very good recipe.

                                      Granted, there is more to just using big, great sensors. I'm curious on the Apertures and the stabilization used.

                                        Excellent upgrade over Find X7 Ultra with 6x zoom (bigger sensor) and with probably better UW cam, but for now i like Vibo X200 Ultra more on paper. Will be probably deciding between these two for my new phone.
