OPPO Find X–here’s what you need to know before buying the new phone

OPPO Find X

The wait is over and all the info we need are already out since last night when The Verge posted the details and feature of the new flagship camera phone of OPPO. The info came out hours before the grand launch and many shared their comments that this might be the future of smartphones and others are concerned that the new camera feature might encounter some problem.

OPPO Find X interesting tech features is the notch-less body, panoramic arc screen, the stealthy 3D camera and also the SRP price!
Those are the tech features that are new and we're not sure if other smartphone brand will follow OPPO's tech trend. But from their previous models, I'm happy with the camera tech they introduced for the OPPO F3 Plus for having the wide angle selfie feature and VOCC flash charge, then the OPPO F5 for the AI camera selfie feature, the OPPO F7 for more AI tech and camera features, but for OPPO Find X it contain almost everything that OPPO's new tech from their previous models.

I was hoping that they can install the wide angle selfie or maybe equip the OPPO Find X to shoot 360 degrees photo or video, but we are surprised that OPPO Find X has a "wow factor" and that's the stealthy camera and notch-less body.

At the launch OPPO announced that they are selling the OPPO Find X at 999 EURO and that will be available this August 2018, but converting it to Philippine Pesos, the OPPO Find X Euro price is equivalent to PHP 60,000++. Wow!! that's a very expensive camera phone launched by OPPO.

I'm sure there are a lot of OPPO fans here in the Philippines and they might be waiting for the launch here in our local stores.

Other smartphone brands might follow OPPO's new tech trend by launching the same notch-less body, it means that the screen covers almost 93.8 percent of the body and you can noticed that the camera lens are not present at the front or back of the phone.

Having a notch-less body gives the user an advantage to enjoy a much more wider and bigger navigation, more information to display on the screen, perfect for gaming, bigger viewing of videos or movies and its beautiful to see a plain full screen on an OPPO Find X

Here's how the notch-less body of the OPPO Find X hides the stealthy 3D camera.

To unlock the phone, you just need to swipe up the screen and the stealthy 3D camera will pop up automatically to do a fast face recognition, once the OPPO Find X scans the face of the owner user in 3D scan, then the OPPO Find X unlocks the phone in a flash!

OPPO Find X stealthy 3D camera will pop up as soon as you pressed the camera app. It will appear in a flash and you can take pictures with it and then once you left the camera app, the the stealthy 3D camera will go down and hide from your sight.

This is a good tech, as I mentioned before, this is the "wow factor" of the OPPO Find X, its very unique and its better that the entire top body serves as the housing for the camera for storage and protection and it looks more durable.

How the camera works??? we saw a photo of the motor and gears that OPPO Find X uses, its a motorized tech that helps move the camera up to the top. When looking at it, the OPPO Find X looks like your motorized toy. Im not sure if there's a sound when you activate the phone, Im going to check that soon once we get a chance for a hands on review.

The thing that we worry, the OPPO Find X is not a waterproof or splash proof phone, but its good that the camera has its own protection from dust or finger print smudge, but the thing that we worry is that -- what if the camera panel caught some dirt or dust? will it affect the motor and gear of the stealthy 3D camera?

I think I heard that OPPO has tested this kind of tech for 5 years and I think that dust and dirt will not be the problem, but only if you use it properly, you get to a long lasting camera phone.
