Need a comparison between the Oppo Find X9 Pro and the OnePlus 15.

    Shamrock Sean, 25 Oct 2025Zoom shots past even 6x look great you're just blind It is worse than the X8U and X8U is worse than the X200U/X300P so go figure.

        Quality zoom photos

            I'm my opinion it's the worst looking flagship from OPPO for years. iPhone or Pixel 10 like front, Find X3 (not X3 Pro which looked fantastic) kind of camera island and overall look is a way worse than Find X8 Pro. Very disappointed with it. It will be hard to pay over NZ$2000 for it regardless of other really good things this phone has.

              xslvrxslwt, 18 Oct 2025Whatever you quoted has nothing to do with HP5 - HP5 has re... moreYep, Samsung talks about HP5 having an opening in its DTI that connects 4 clustered pixels to increase the conversion gain and improve noise performance. This also means that there's far more crosstalk between these pixels, which naturally lowers the effective resolution of the full-resolution output significantly.

              When I first saw the product page of HP5 I immediately had a concern that this would result in severe degradation in captured details, but it seems that my worst speculation has turned out to be true.

You're so wrong that it objectively hurts

                    We'll see if master mode is any better but I highly doubt it, because it'll still handle motion worse (due to lack of ZSL) and will have clipped highlights because it doesn't merge multiple frames.

The Vivo X100 Ultra for example was the result of over-sharpening but it kept the real texture (usually, especially at native focal lengths) but on the new OPPOs it's straight up a different thing. I have many pictures where oppo draws completely fake foliage everywhere when compared to other phones or its own master/gcam.

                        EDIT: Actually what you quoted confirms what I said - 3x optical and 6x with ISZ which is 2x ISZ.

                          xslvrxslwt, 17 Oct 2025Take note that HP5 has way worse ISZ than HP9 and the new H... moreThey seem to be advertising a 4x isz today (12x ISZ with the default 3x periscope). This is what they posted on Weibo.


                          200MP 1/1.56" large sensor with F2.6 aperture, the only 200MP main camera-level periscope lens in its class, supporting 3X optical zoom, 6X ISZ lossless zoom, and 12X ISZ with 12.5MP—no pressure when shooting distant scenes. It supports multi-frame true 200MP and 8K ultra-clear photos, with image quality surpassing that of 50MP telephoto cameras. It also features a telephoto macro mode with a minimum focusing distance of 25cm, allowing you to capture both near and far subjects with ease.

                          Will be interesting to see how it does in practice

                            Nick Tegrataker, 17 Oct 2025GSMA used the teleconverter for 10x and onwards.Oh thats right I didn't notice that. But still while 6x is 2x digital so is 20x, and photos of 20x and even 40x are way better than 6x. 6x is unusable. That is insane

                              xslvrxslwt, 17 Oct 2025Take note that HP5 has way worse ISZ than HP9 and the new H... moreYes. I expect the longer range zoom to be singficantly worse on the OPPO find x9 pro compared to the Honor Magic 9 pro for the reason you mention about ISZ and also the fact that it has a lower optical zoom at 70mm compared to 85mm on the aforementioned 2 phones. I'd expect the 3x optical to perform excellently though in all conditions. The relatively large sensor and f2.1 should help it to be very good at the optical level of 70mm.

Slight faults and artifacts produced during demosaicing get exaggerated more as you apply stronger sharpening on the image, as exemplified by the fact that Quad Bayer and X-Trans "worms" become far more noticeable if you take these RAW files to Lightroom and dial up the sharpness slider.

                                "it should be a simple gain map and not clipped on SDR displays"
                                They aren't clipped on SDR displays either. There are traces of highlight compressions, but midtone details aren't overflattened nor are highlights completely blown out like what you would get from Xiaomi's cameras.

I can see a huge up in unorganic AI texture and I am 100% positive after MONTHS of testing and comparing FX7U and FX8U. And I agree with you that photos are heavily tuned for PRO XDR compatible displays which is not really good because it should be a simple gain map and not clipped on SDR displays.

                                      HP5's max ISZ is 2x because it can not utilize the full 200MP while HP9/HPB can utilize 4x ISZ.
