Oppo Find X8 and Oppo Find X9s tie on the OH Rank at a score of 70. Oppo Find X8 wins on Screen and Main Camera; Oppo Find X9s wins on Performance and Battery. Oppo Find X8 is 0.4mm wider than Oppo Find X9s. Oppo Find X9s is the more recent release, from Apr 21, 2026.
EDITORIAL: The non-Pro Oppo Find X8 version is a little gem â it includes everything the Pro has except the 2nd periscope tele camera. Because of the screen tech and battery size difference, it scores better in performance and marginally worse in battery life (which will still easily give you a full day). In a paradox, the white versionâs back panel feels like plastic â great feel and solid surface that is very satisfying to touch â may be the best color option of the series!
EDITORIAL: (this is a pre-test listing based on reasonable expectation of battery, screen and imaging performance) A year after Find X8s comes a change in direction for Oppo: leaving the compact flagship segment to make another excellent phone that is a stripped down Find X9. Hard to tell what caused this strategic change, perhaps X8s lost too badly to Vivo X200s and Oppo didn't feel they could compete? The X9s is the same build and size as X9, they share the same battery, screen and selfie but for about $200 less the X9s loses the wireless charging, periscope telephoto and multi-directional PDAF on all back lenses.
Both phones here were scored by me, using the same ten categories, with no ads, sponsorships, or manufacturer relationships — this comparison is as objective and honest as it gets.
