EDITORIAL: The non-Pro Oppo Find X8 version is a little gem – 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 version’s back panel feels like plastic – great feel and solid surface that is very satisfying to touch – may be the best color option of the series!

PROs
great build and in-hand feel despite it’s considerable width, excellent Dimensity 9400 with UFS4.0 performance, bright >1300nits 460ppi AMOLED with Dolby Vision, very good triple PDAF 50MP camera setup (with OIS for main and tele), up to 5 years of OS updates
CONs
just short of a 2-day endurance from a 5600mAh Si/C battery, no AF on an “okay” selfie, no SDmemory, no desktop replacement feature (updated Apr 21, 2025)

EDITORIAL: Xiaomi’s best 2024 phone was one of world’s top camera phones of 2024. Missing are selfie camera auto-focus, the memory expansion slot and any attempt at the desktop replacement feature tho “video out” is supported. Xiaomi did a fantastic job with the main camera that features 4 50MP sensors, all with PDAF functionality and with a Photography Kit accessory available as an extra purchase – this really is a camera-phone.

PROs
more compact then direct (camera centric) competitors, good SD 8 Gen 3 performance, high res (520ppi) LTPO OLED with Dolby Vision, top camera chops (quad 50MP sensor setup with a periscope tele and OIS on all but ultrawide – all lenses have PDAF!), excellent video recording and long OS update support
CONs
a powerful processor with high-res 68B color support screen take a great toll on battery – barely a 1-day performance (updated Apr 16, 2025)
