SUPERIORBEST Phone Fall Winter 2025* TOP Camera* TOP Selfie* TOP Software* TOP Desktop Replacement* TOP Battery Endurance
EDITORIAL: Smaller in every way then Magic 7 Pro, this phone brings the best SnapDragon chip, a significantly bigger battery, 120W charging, brighter LTPO screen and a variable apperature main camera that Magic 7 Pro dropped. This is a phone with top performance, amazing battery endurance, excellent screen and possibly the best camera in business.

SUPERIOR* TOP Battery Endurance* TOP Software* TOP PHOTO/VIDEO
EDITORIAL: This is a meaningful upgrade of Find X8 Pro. Significantly bigger battery with record breaking endurance, finally an AF on the upgraded selfie, excellent 200MP periscope telephoto that replaced two 50MP zoom lenses and a new customizable action button. Unlike Vivo, Xiaomi and Honor, Oppo likes their phones to be wide. X9 has actually gone a millimeter shorter while staying 76mm wide for a more squarish screen ratio. The imaging performance is almost Ultra level with only some minor complaints.
