I’m Baffled by Oppo’s Find X10 Pro Max, but I Love It Anyway
Oppo launched two excellent phones within six months of each other. I’m confused, but maybe you can figure it out.
Oppo's latest flagship, the Find X10 Pro Max, has left the reviewer somewhat perplexed. Although the phone boasts impressive specs, including a powerful MediaTek Dimensity 9600 Pro chip, advanced camera sensors, and detachable telephoto lenses, the reviewer finds it challenging to explain why the X10 Pro Max is necessary so soon after the debut of the X9 Ultra.
Both phones feature cutting-edge camera setups from Hasselblad and utilize detachable telephoto zoom lenses, making it difficult to discern any significant advancements between the two devices. The Find X10 Pro Max is priced at £1,499 in the UK, which is comparable to the X9 Ultra's cost. Despite the reviewer's enthusiasm for the phone's camera capabilities, which include a 200-megapixel main lens, a 200-megapixel ultrawide lens, and a 3x optical telephoto camera with digital zoom capabilities up to 40x, they struggle to ascertain if one model surpasses the other in performance.
The reviewer concludes by expressing their admiration for the phone's image quality, particularly its dynamic range and natural-looking colors, while acknowledging that some shots might be overprocessed. They also appreciate the phone's creative features, such as the Hasselblad XPAN mode and customizable color filters, though they note that these features may not set the X10 Pro Max apart significantly from the X9 Ultra.
