Oppo has officially launched its latest flagship smartphones, the Find X8 and Find X8 Pro, exclusively in China. Alongside these sleek devices, Oppo unveiled an array of new products during a high-profile event, highlighting its ongoing innovation in the tech market. Among the fresh lineup was the Oppo Pad 3 Pro, adding to the company’s diverse offerings.
Following in the footsteps of its sibling brand, OnePlus, which recently rolled out the successor to last year’s OnePlus 12, the Oppo Find X8 and Find X8 Pro are now available for international buyers through import. Enthusiasts outside China can seize these cutting-edge smartphones thanks to third-party retailers, with Giztop and TradingShenzhen leading the charge in making them accessible globally.
However, there are some nuances to consider for potential buyers. The Chinese editions of these phones come pre-installed with a localized version of ColorOS. This version varies slightly from the global version, as it lacks support for certain features like Android Auto and may encounter compatibility issues with some banking and contactless payment apps. Yet, on the bright side, even the Chinese version supports multiple languages, and Oppo ensures that Google Mobile Services and the Play Store are included, allowing the majority of apps, especially those from Google, to function seamlessly.
At present, prices on Giztop start at $899 for the Find X8 Pro, featuring 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage. For those seeking higher performance, configurations go up to 16 GB of RAM and a whopping 1 TB of internal storage, available for $1,099. Meanwhile, TradingShenzhen tends to have slightly higher price points but offers the standard Find X8 starting at around $725. These smartphones present an attractive option for tech enthusiasts looking to experience Oppo’s latest innovations ahead of a global rollout.
