Quite the potato logic there. I don't even support influencer marketing like that, I just think it's a good thing people are getting introduced to these phones. Otherwise, they'll keep mindlessly shelling out thousands for Samsung or Apple phones which are objectively inferior in many aspects.

That way western audiences will hopefully wake up to the fact that the 2-3 smartphone makers (Apple, Samsung, Google) dominating their markets have been selling them recycled hardware at exorbitant prices while providing close to nothing in terms of innovation (safe for some half-baked AI features).

At first there are lot better camera flagships Xiaomi 15 Ultra is agood example and at second availability only for chinese is main issue.
So is a no for everyone. äEven chinese people would rather buy 15 Ultra at same price for much better camera and specs.

Oppo themselves focused mostly on 3rd tier cities in China and developing markets. Their ultra flagships are for branding purposes, and only youtubers and influencers would use them (sponsored by Oppo). Their money maker is the A series.

Let's hope Oppo wakes up because they will never carve out a market share in Europe if they don't put out their best phones.... That is of course assuming that they even want that. I would love to buy one, but sadly can only import and am not willing to do that.

It's not that awesome. YouTubers pretended it's awesome because they got sponsored by Oppo on trips and cruises, and pretenders here are simply parroting them.

Its crazy how X8 Ultra with such amazing camera hardware can be so slim, especially if you compare it to leaked X200 Ultra with like 30mm thick camera bump even tho it doesn't even have 1inch sensor like X8 Ultra does

Oppo is shit anyway, they will downgrade their phone that released in global. Like, look at Reno12 Pro, China and Global ver, the difference are too big to get ignored (for me at least).
I bet when Oppo released Find X8 Ultra, the chipset will get downgraded to Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 while the price is same as the China ver.

"The Oppo Find X8s was almost as popular [as the Oppo Find X8 Ultra] with essentially half of the vote going in its favor."
This makes no sense. The X8 Ultra had 941 (!) votes in favour of getting it, while the X8s only had 381. You can't compare different sample sizes and say they're almost just as popular just because they have similar percentages for people wanting to get a unit on their respective polls. This is bad data analysis and shows a lack of understanding of data science in general.
"The numbers would have looked even better if we had subtracted the number of people who are not interested in a small flagship (they can always get an X8s+ or an X8 Ultra)."
How can you extrapolate that these same people would've got these models just because they don't want a smaller flagship? They could just as well want a different phone altogether, so there's not enough evidence to prove the assertion that they would necessarily go for the X8s or X8 Ultra. Again, bad data science.
