TL;DR<\/p>\n

OPPO has confirmed that its Hasselblad-branded external lens for the Find X9 series is a telephoto extender.
\nIt revealed that this is a 3.28x telephoto extender, turning the Find X9 Pro\u2019s 3x camera into a ~9.6x camera.
\nRecent history suggests that this should deliver fantastic long-range shots, albeit in a cumbersome package.<\/p>\n

The OPPO Find X9 series is scheduled to launch in the coming weeks, and we\u2019re expecting these devices to be among the best camera phones<\/a>. OPPO already confirmed that the phones will have an optional, Hasselblad-branded external lens<\/a>, and it\u2019s now revealed more details.<\/p>\n

This Hasselblad lens attaches to the Find X9 Pro\u2019s 200MP 70mm periscope camera and extends zoom by 3.28x. In other words, this lens turns the phone\u2019s 3x periscope camera into a ~9.6x camera (230mm). By contrast, the vivo X200 Ultra\u2019s 2.35x telephoto extender effectively enabled ~8.3x native zoom (200mm). So the OPPO lens will have a longer range. The phone\u2019s 200MP periscope camera means the add-on lens could likely enable ~19x zoom at lossless resolution.<\/p>\n

For what it\u2019s worth, I thought the X200 Ultra\u2019s external lens was capable of taking fantastic 200mm shots during the day. It also offered a pleasantly shallow depth-of-field effect for portraits. Furthermore, the combo enabled good-quality daytime snaps at 400mm (~16x). However, I did find it a bit challenging to capture fast-moving subjects, while low-light image quality was also hit-or-miss. The lens missed out on some features too, like RAW support, manual controls, and more. In any event, you can view a few samples below to get a rough idea of what to expect with the Find X9 Pro\u2019s add-on lens.<\/p>\n

Perhaps the biggest issue I have with using a telephoto extender is that the combo of lens and phone is quite cumbersome. You also need to detach the lens if you want to use the main or ultrawide cameras, which means you might miss your shot. Either way, this is the antithesis of the smartphone shooting experience. However, I\u2019m still glad to see OPPO experimenting with add-on lenses, especially for people who don\u2019t want to carry a standalone camera and separate lenses.<\/p>\n

Otherwise, tipster Digital Chat Station<\/a> says you should expect a 7,500mAh battery with 80W wired and 50W wireless charging, as well as a 6.78-inch 1.5K OLED screen. This joins previously confirmed specs like a Dimensity 9500 chipset, a 50MP LYT-828 main camera, a 200MP f\/2.1 periscope camera, and a 50MP ultrawide camera.<\/p>\n
