The reviewer concludes that the OPPO Find X9 Ultra is the most capable smartphone they have ever used, exceeding their expectations and making them 'way more than happy' with its overall performance.
This review provides a detailed, long-term analysis of the OPPO Find X9 Ultra after 30 days of use. It covers various aspects including camera performance, design and build quality, battery life, charging speed, display, software experience, network connectivity, and thermal management.
The OPPO Find X9 Ultra is an exceptionally capable smartphone, proving to be one of the best for users prioritizing camera performance and battery longevity. Its dual 200MP sensors, especially the 3x telephoto, produce stunning natural depth of field and capture immense light even in darkness, outperforming competitors' main cameras. Despite its 9.1mm thickness, the phone's 7050 mAh battery consistently delivers two days of casual use, supported by rapid 100W charging. If you are a power user or photographer seeking top-tier mobile imaging and unparalleled battery life, this device is a strong contender. However, if a slim profile and millimeter wave 5G are non-negotiable, you should explore other options.

The main 200MP sensor pulls in a ridiculous amount of light, making night photography feel like cheating by bringing out detail in total darkness without making the image look artificial or blown out.

The second 200MP sensor on the 3x telephoto, dubbed the 'super portrait camera,' is the reviewer's favorite lens due to its massive sensor, providing natural depth of field and background separation at 70mm focal length without needing software-driven portrait mode.

The telephoto sensor on the Oppo Find X9 Ultra is larger than most other main cameras on other flagship devices, contrasting with Samsung's 10-megapixel 3x telephoto which has a tiny sensor and terrible detail.

The teleconverter kit provides stunning, sharp 13x optical telephoto images by leveraging the 3x telephoto sensor, transforming the device into a dedicated imaging machine. However, the reviewer found it not essential for daily use, only using it for a couple of weeks before stashing it away, suggesting its utility is niche for wildlife or sports photographers.

The reviewer praises the main 200MP sensor for its low-light performance, making night photography feel like 'cheating' without artificiality. The 3x telephoto 'super portrait camera' is highlighted for its massive sensor, producing natural depth of field and background separation at 70mm, eliminating the need for software portrait mode. The 10x optical periscope lens also yields 'incredibly sharp, usable images' for various applications.
The phone is described as a 'monster' and a 'two-day long smartphone'. With casual use, users can expect to end the day with over 60% battery. Even on heavy days involving outdoor use, full brightness, 5G, camera use, and 4K video recording, it's 'impossible to drain the battery in one day' for the reviewer.
