Another AI feature that was added to the Find X8 Pro is the Circle to Search feature. With this feature, you’ll easily be able to search for any object, landmark and even text just by drawing a circle around them, and users will instantly get search results related to the content.
Battery
The OPPO Find X8 Pro is equipped with an impressive 5910mAh Silicon-Carbon Battery which will allow users to use the device for the whole day without worrying about the battery life. In fact, it can be used for up to 23 hours of YouTube streaming and 24 hours of Netflix streaming. This is especially useful for those who enjoy watching dramas or YouTube videos on their mobile devices.
I decided to test out the phone’s battery life with an hour-long gaming session on Wuthering Waves, a game that is known to drain the battery fast. After an hour, the result was quite impressive as only 10% of the battery was consumed during the time even when the game was set to the highest settings.
Moving from that, I also decided to measure the battery consumption on YouTube as well, watching a YouTube video for an entire hour at 1080p. The results showed that a total of 5% of the battery was consumed during that time.
The OPPO Find X8 Pro also comes with a 80W SUPERVOOC Charging which complements the long-lasting battery life of the phone, which will allow users to be able to return to their tasks easily. In addition to this, the device also comes with a 50W AIRVOOC wireless charging. In 5 minutes, the phone was able to charge back up to 13% while it managed to reach 33% in 15 minutes. It took a total of 65 minutes to be fully charged.
Verdict
Overall, the OPPO Find X8 Pro is a device that should be considered by many for its many incredible features. Not only does it come with many AI Features that help improve your mobile experience, but the smartphone also puts in a good performance for your everyday life. Furthermore, for those who enjoy photography, then the collaboration with Hasselblad is definitely something that should entice you, as you’ll be able to snap high-quality images from the device. Priced at RM4,999, the OPPO Find X8 Pro is definitely a phone that I would suggest you consider getting for yourself.
