Design That Dares to Be Different
The renders shared by our source showcase a dual-tone finish that emphasizes premium materials. While OPPO will offer a classic all-glass model too, the standout flagship variant feature will feature a sophisticated blend of glass, metal, and faux leather.
According to Brar, the Find X9 Ultra will launch in at least three colorways, including a sleek all-black version, a vibrant orange model, and an earthy brown dual-tone option. While more colors are expected at launch, these initial designs suggest a focus on high-end textures and bold visual contrasts.

OPPO Find X9 Ultra Specs
As per the leaks, the OPPO Find X9 Ultra will feature a massive 6.82-inch 2K AMOLED flat display with a 120Hz refresh rate. The phone will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset and it will boot on the latest ColorOS 16 software based on Android 16. Perhaps most impressively, the device is rumored to pack a ginormous 7,300mAh battery with super fast wired and wireless charging.
The New King of Zoom
OPPO has always prioritized photography, but the Find X9 Ultra’s camera array is nothing short of extraordinary. The main sensor is a 200MP Sony LYT-901, at 1/1.12 inches paired with f/1.5 aperture. This is supported by a 50MP ultra-wide lens with the JN5 sensor.
However, the real story lies in the dual-telephoto setup. It includes a 200MP OmniVision sensor measuring 1/1.28 inches with 3X optical zoom and an f/2.2 aperture, along with a 50MP LYT600 shooter capable of 10X optical zoom. The story continues with a 300 mm telephoto extender, which delivers 13.2X optical zoom using the large 1/1.28-inch sensor.
And with a 50MP camera on the front for selfies, OPPO is clearly aiming for the crown of the most versatile camera system in the industry.
