One of the highlights of the phone is its true Billion Colour QHD+ (3216 x 1440) OLED display. The 6.7-inch screen features a low-on-bezel design with OPPO’s Full-path 10-bit Colour Management System for better visuals.

Boasting a crystal-clear 525PPI pixel density and peak brightness of 1300 nits, OPPO Find X3 Pro is sharp and bright; and with a staggeringly broad 5,000,000:1 contrast ratio, the tones it displays are virtually lifelike. The quality is undeniable, with a colour accuracy rating of 0.4 JNCD, not to mention A+ DisplayMate certification.

OPPO said the Find X3 Pro’s display can natively deliver a 5 ∼ 120Hz adaptive refresh rate, thanks to its power-efficient LTPO OLED panel. Visuals glide and flow, while also saving power, whether you’re blasting through a multiplayer game, scrolling through your social newsfeed or reading an e-book.

Design

The Find X3 Pro is super-slim and lightweight. Measuring just 8.26mm deep and weighing 193 grams, it can slide easily into the pocket and sits naturally in-hand, all the while being IP68 water and dust-resistant.

The Find X3 Pro in Blue features a new anti-glare matte finish, frosted to a precise level of 85 percent opacity. With its dual-tone, a satin finish is set against a high-gloss camera surround, creating a rich visual and tactile contrast. The other colour is Gloss Black with a ceramic-like finish for a high-end look.

Camera

The Find X3 Pro offers wide and ultra-wide lenses with an IMX766 50MP sensor, which the company co-engineered with Sony. Both lenses are said able to capture rich, Billion Colour images and video, with intelligent autofocus and a 4cm macro focus distance.
