EDITORIAL: (this is a pre-test listing based on reasonable expectation of battery, screen and imaging performance) Following Xiaomi's 2025 move, both Vivo and Oppo released "Pro" and "Pro Max" phones in September 2026. Oppo's Find X10 Pro Max lands somewhere between last year's Pro and Ultra, not really matching either. It beats Pro's battery size and camera setup while the screen is a real downgrade from X9 Ultra's QHD screen. Most importantly: this is the 1st phone with a triple 200MP camera setup on the back and given Oppo's improved imaging performance, we should expect the best photo phone title contender.
PROs
flagship build, fast Dimensity 9600 Pro (2nm) with UFS 4.1 performance, >42hr endurance from a massive 8000mAh (7150mAh in EU) Si-C battery with sub-90min 80W (50W wireless) charging, ~1100nits 450ppi 144Hz LTPO AMOLED screen with Dolby Vision, IP69 protection, industry-first triple 200MP lenses with PDAF: 24mm OIS main + 70mm OIS periscope telephoto + 13mm ultrawide, excellent 50MP 18mm PDAF selfie, very good video recording, up to 5 years of OS updates, Snap button for fast access to a feature of choice, aggressive pricing
CONs

EDITORIAL: (this is a pre-test listing based on reasonable expectation of battery, charging, imaging and desktop replacement functionality performance) On Sep 21 Vivo came with first of the next-gen Android flagships: X500, X500 Pro and X500 Pro Max. The Pro model is actually an upgrade of excellent X300 (X400 series never happened, probably out of superstition) and it is a very good incremental upgrade: 2nm chip, 500mAh bigger battery, 144Hz Dolby Vision screen and upgraded periscope telephoto lens. Main camera got a downgrade from 200MP to 50MP and charging speeds remain the same making it one of the best compacts in the world.
PROs
compact design, excellent Dimensity 9600 Pro (2nm) with UFS 4.1 performance, 36hr endurance from a 6500mAh Si-C battery with sub-60min 90W (40W wireless) charging, ~2000nits bright 460ppi 144Gz LTPO AMOLED screen with Dolby Vision, IP69 protection, excellent 50MP 24mm 64MP 85mm periscope telephoto (both OIS PDAF) + 50MP 15mm AF ultrawide setup, very good 50MP 20mm selfie with AF, excellent video recording, upgraded OriginOS 7 with a promise of 6 years of updates, basic desktop replacement functionality, 200mm external zoom lens kit option
CONs
flat sides boxy design feels outdated and bigger then it is, no expandable memory, OriginOS remains behind competition in AI and other software features and the gap may be growing, limited market availability
