OPPO did an excellent job with the Find X2 Pro . It’s a solid phone with everything you’d ever wanted in a flagship smartphone — simple, elegant design, impressive performance, and display, great camera quality, good battery life.

* Nice solid build; * Impressive camera performance; * SuperVOOC 2.0 fast-charging is unmatched; * Superb display with the highest refresh rates; * Very powerful chipset; impressive performance; * Very generous RAM and storage options; * 5G support

Orange Vegan Leather has never looked so good or moved this fast

It’s tough for an Android smartphone brand to stand out when it comes to design or features, but OPPO has managed to differentiate themselves. The R5 was the thinnest toughest smartphone at that time, so confident that they even used the phone as a hammer to crack walnuts.

The first thing that came to mind when I held the Oppo Find X2 Pro 5G phone in my hands recently was the Huawei Mate 30 Pro . What caught my eye were the orange leather back and gold trims.

A barnstorming success, Oppo has created a versatile, high-performing handset with one of the best screens in smartphones right now. A great ultra-premium at a reasonable price.

Next-level display; Top spec innards; Great quality camera

No wireless charging; High-end screen drains battery

The Oppo Find X2 Pro boasts an amazing screen and a powerful camera, but it doesn't do enough to distinguish itself from flagship phones.

When it first came out, Oppo’s Find X line made headlines for pushing the envelope with a mechanical selfie camera and an all-screen design. Its successor, the Find X2 Pro, has a high bar to live up to, yet it errs on the side of conventionality when it comes to hardware and software, which is disappointing considering its price of £1099, or approximately $1,300. But while the Find X2 Pro may not steal the spotlight in the way its predecessor did, it's still a very potent device, and a hard-hitter when held up against other current flagships. We took a first look at the phone in London. Design, Display, and Durability The Find X2 Pro comes in two varieties: one with a ceramic back that looks similar to glass, and a vegan leather version. Not only is the vegan leather more eye-catching, it gives the phone a bit more personality and it doesn't collect fingerprints. The neatness of a gold Oppo badge on the back is a nice touch too. The display is a 6.7-inch panel with 3,168-by-1,440-...

If you want a quick way to illustrate just how good Chinese phones have gotten in the past couple of years, try comparing the Oppo Find X2 Pro to its predecessor. 2018’s Find X was a technically ambitious device that paired a still-unique motorized sliding design with a still-uncommon 3D face unlock...

Eye-catching design; Beautiful display; Great; versatile cameras

Oppo Find X2 Pro Software The Find X2 Pro runs ColorOS 7.1, Oppo’s flavor of Android 10. ColorOS was pretty bad in the past, and Oppo’s very proud of the changes it’s made to bring version 7.1 closer to a standard Android experience.

Great design; Beautiful display; Excellent triple camera; Solid performance

Expensive; No US 5G support; No wireless charging; No headphone jack

With the pop-up camera gone, the Find X2 Pro's screen is left to be the shining star. Top spec means super-smooth running, while that versatile triple camera impresses. But OnePlus delivers much the same for less.

That 120Hz OLED screen is stunning - for resolution / colour / refresh rate; Really powerful spec will take anything you throw at it; Solid battery innings - and even better if you tweak settings; ColorOS software much improved over previous outings; Versatile triple camera system is impressive

Night mode can't beat the camera competition; ColorOS software won't be everyone's favourite (we find it fine); No wireless charging; Black design is a bit non-descript (orange vegan leather looks more interesting); Camera unit protrudes a lot; OnePlus far cheaper for similar
