Hey Tom, your real-world test of the OPPO Find X8 Pro was fantastic-especially how you compared the camera, gaming, and battery performance in real scenarios! Your attention to detail is what makes your content stand out. Are you open to discussing partnerships? Let me know!
Great video Tom. Have been waiting (im)patiently for Oppo to release their flagship series in the UK. You might want to update your pinned comment. It's £1049 (16 + 512GB). Oppo aren't selling a 12GB variant in the UK.
Hi there from Devon 😊 I've had S24 Ultra and sent back for 9 Pro XL, would you say the oppo is a better camera than both of them please as the camera is the main thing for me? 😊
Hi, Thomas, I was waiting for the OPPO video 😁 I am the person who recognized you 2 days ago in the Restaurant of the Hotel. Sorry, I can’t see you because of I’m sick. Well I’m glad I saw you. Enjoy Bali 🎉!!
Another great review Tom, thank you! I was just about ready to get the Honor Magic 6 Pro until i saw this review. I know you liked the Magic phones a lot so can i ask how would you say the Oppo compares when it comes to the disolay and camera? Which one would you suggest? Thanks in advance! Excellent job as always
Currently watching this on the oppo find x5 pro, and tbh I'm not too happy with my experience with it. Not to sure if they fixed their soft and hardware problems with the new one, even though the 8 looks pretty good
Thr camera button is cool and all but in the settings their should be a setting to where you can use the volume controls for zooming in and out where you're shooting with the rear cameras
This isn't the device I expected from OPPO. They can do much better, so bring on the ultra version that has better cameras and a snapdragon processor!!
I actually prefer dimensity it slightly faster but apparently harder to cool as well which you might not notice the extra performance but will notice the hotter phone although more testing is required to tell for certain which one is more efficient in different workloads but apps Will probably be more optimized for SD another thing is the price, SD is so much more expensive, that money paid has to go somewhere
can"t be totally objective as you were paid to go there, business, and do this review, but it does give some good inputs. I am really hesitating between this one and the voivo x200 pro ....
It seems a great value Android phone in the UK as it is significantly cheaper than the S24U at launch and, therefore, the likely S25U launch price. The 16GB/512GB base is £1050. That is £300 less than the S24U, which only had 12GB. You also get a free watch, which you did not get with the S24U, and they offer trade-in bonuses, which are better than Samsung ever offers in the UK. So, value-wise, it easily beats the S25U. Cameras are similar, four, though 6X zoom on OPPO. Five years of OS upgrades will be enough for most. From what I have seen, the Dimensity looks as good as the Snapdragon 8 Elite and has better thermals and battery life. A good choice for 2025 buyers.
The Chinese phone makers are so far ahead of Samsung/google/apple when it comes to battery and charging, it's mind boggling that here in America we're still limited to 45W / 5000mAh for the "flagship" offerings
For me I will take I've had the oppo find X 5 Pro for a while now and well since it came out and the whole reason I haven't upgraded till like any newer phone is because for me I love the UI on the oppo and like the vivos A lot of the Chinese phones they're really good for multitasking like really really good yeah sure Samsung is a pretty good competitor but even within its own quote unquote ecosystem it's mid and also the front cameras have always been stuck at 1080p 60 FPS now it's finally upgraded to 4K 60fps and it looks great also in terms of price to performance and everything that you get within the box straight away there's no point of buying a Samsung or a Google because outside of that you'd still have to buy a case you still have to buy a plug those things come with the phone at the box and that is why I haven't swapped from a Chinese phone since
Hey Chaps! What do we think of the X8 & X8 Pro??
PRICING X8 Pro: £1049 (16GB + 512GB)
Correction: X8 is 193g, 7.85mm thick
Do you know what the price is for the 512 GB

@@sfisosg7904I think it’s gonna be near £1200

The lens switching is the best I've experience. So underrated
So good right!

Ah yes! Great to meet you - thank you!
I'm so glad they are releasing it in the UK.
same! Was disappointed last year
Ive been watching your videos for years and finally you visit my country. Welcome to Indonesia 🇮🇩!
Beautiful country
Hands up everyone who first thought he meant Poland in the first place 😅
There's just something satisfying and comforting about watching a tech review being done outdoors.
Those photos look stunning!!! Would definitely get the Pro
I was really impressed with the camera
7:44 ayo 😂
11:08 best pic 😂❤❤❤
Ok wow, the videos from this phone actually look incredible
Hey tom, I've been a long time subscriber of your channel and I'm from Indonesia, hope you had a great time in Bali!
Thank you - I've had a wonderful time
@ wow really appreciate to get a direct response from you Tom:)
Glad that you had a wonderful time there, hope to meet you one day!
The Tech Chap's 4k Video is Incredible
wow... nice to know my favorite tech review visit bali..
Another great review Tom, thank you!
I was just about ready to get the Honor Magic 6 Pro until i saw this review.
I know you liked the Magic phones a lot so can i ask how would you say the Oppo compares when it comes to the disolay and camera?
Which one would you suggest?
Thanks in advance! Excellent job as always
dang it Tom, now I want all your reviews to be done like this cus it looks so cool and fun 😭
Are you happy with the optical fingerprint reader performance? Is there a face unlock feature?
What is the pwm frequency on higher brightness? Please confirm
Hello friend, I'm from Brazil. Your video of the Oppo Find X8 was perfect. We want more focus on smartphone content.
Can you compare the oppo find x7 camera to the x8 pro cameras?
Great review, love the honesty with some of the issues you found out with the cameras.
i like the look of this, tempted by Oppo, nearly bought the X5 Pro and have owned a OnePlus8 Pro previously
Oppo x5 pro is better than this on camera test . I compared it in the store
2:16 Does this software/security support apply on the Non-Pro as well?
Amazing. Do you know when it will be launched in France ?
Woa, didn't expect that you're in Bali. Hope you enjoyed and had nice experiences there. A nice review as always!
shooting on location is amazing, great video
Great camera test keep it up as always bro
4:18 When you say rival then right after say the name😂
Nice outdoor review 🎉
Base model not coming to the UK?
Will this phone work on the us carriers if you import it?
I'm not in the market for a new phone but that looks impressive, Tom. Great video.
the hardware is actually really good, if the software is clean fast and more importantly consistent it will be awesome
I read in a couple places the pro has a telephoto macro mode. Is this correct?
Kinda does, 30cm focus distance with the 6x. It's no vivo x200 pro or huawei pura 70 though
@eduard6450 thanks
Is there any news on whether these will be coming to carriers in the UK so I can get one as an upgrade instead of having to buy outright?
Looks like it might be exclusive to O2 in the UK for contracts..
@pob1971 well that sucks balls
Price for the base X8?
It's 650€ I don't know in $
@GurdeGek-mh3uc but there is no global version right now
945 $. But I can't find EU price, looks like they might only sell Pro model.
Loving that they are keeping the alert slider
Good, honest review as always mate 👍🏻
I'd love to see how this fairs up against the OnePlus 13, considering they will be almost similar.
the video quality is very astounding 😮😮🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭
Love the design. Always been an iPhone user. Since the original iPhone. Have thought about switching. But have always been nervous of doing so
Oppo find x8 pro or oneplus 12?
Currently watching this on the oppo find x5 pro, and tbh I'm not too happy with my experience with it. Not to sure if they fixed their soft and hardware problems with the new one, even though the 8 looks pretty good
Tell them to give us options, I would buy it if there is 1TB version available in Europe
amazing 😁👍
Did you say MediaTek?
Oppo's phone is known as a camera phone, and with Hasselblad camera support, it has become even more of a camera phone. ❤❤
Thr camera button is cool and all but in the settings their should be a setting to where you can use the volume controls for zooming in and out where you're shooting with the rear cameras
We were in Bali for a month recently, the heat was insane! Feel your pain 😅 The camera switches look brill, S23 Ultra's switch is very noticeable.
Do more outdoor reviews bro, good content
This isn't the device I expected from OPPO. They can do much better, so bring on the ultra version that has better cameras and a snapdragon processor!!
I actually prefer dimensity
it slightly faster but apparently harder to cool as well
which you might not notice the extra performance but will notice the hotter phone
although more testing is required to tell for certain which one is more efficient in different workloads but apps Will probably be more optimized for SD
another thing is the price, SD is so much more expensive, that money paid has to go somewhere
When a company send you to Bali to check out the phone, it cant be bad.
Good video
enjoy Bali🎉
At 11:22 The focusing seems to work fine but rather the shutter speed that's too slow.
Alwyas wanted to try an oppo but they don't launch in my country especially the flagships
This is impressive. I expect it to be on par or even surpass the iPhone 16 pro-Max...
I'm waiting for the OnePlus 13's review 🤞🏾
Bro OnePlus 13 sucks. Real talk.
@gee620 How u know? U having one?
My X3 finally getting an upgrade :)
Hope you find Bali / Indonesia is a great place 😊
Which one will be winner value for your money OPP or onePlus, as they are owned by the same company
can"t be totally objective as you were paid to go there, business, and do this review, but it does give some good inputs. I am really hesitating between this one and the voivo x200 pro ....
SEEMS A GOOD PHONE IN ALMOST ALL ASPECTS INCLUDING NO HEATING ISSUE PROBLEM AT ALL SO THE BEST PHONE OF 2024
This phone is crazy❤
Vivo x200 pro but not clear when they release global version ,WAITING 😔
Find X7 pro still looks classier. Space black hides that horrendous camera module way better and the video camera makes you paler than a vampire Tom.
Be interesting to see this Vs the honor magic 7 Pro
wow 😮
wellcome to bali mate
Da hell?😂 0:15
Without watching this video first, I should say that I was more interested in the phone’s regular module
We need more sweaty Tom videos.
Disagree.
Now, we are getting Fan servicing in tech videos
I'm enjoying the phone!
Last year design
Best
Google decided to release Android 15 and 16 within a year, so is it 5 years of Android updates or 5 OS updates?
I believe it'll support up to Android 20
Enjoy Bali!
Please include OnePlus 13 in your Battery test video.
Vivo X200 Pro left the group.
This is the first time I guess, Oppo launched their Flagship in Indonesia 😅
i love the phone but what concerns me is the years of software update support
5 years is great
2160Hz of PWM., Eyes would thanks it ❤❤❤
0:47 portrait?
Waiting for Oneplus 13 comparison with this device
X8 pro vs x200 pro 🙏🏻😌
It's better than the upcoming Scamsung s25 series, and it's cheaper too
To be honest, I like the non pro Find X8
So it's basically a OnePlus 13 without the snapdragon chip!
Oppo and OnePlus share very similar R&D, but there are some differences.
@Thetechchap Love ur content!
No no one plus camer ais going to be down grade

Compare this to the vivo and xiaomi
I will!
Wait doesn't speed went there??

Ok so o2 are the eclusive uk seller and you get a free watch. Think this will be my next switch up
This is just OnePlus 13 with Color OS proudly.
Not totally true, this has slightly slower wired charging, a lower resolution screen, different chip but has an extra 6x camera
monkey vs tom, who wins?
Asking the real questions
Mr tech chap is oppo video better than 16 pro max
For me I will take I've had the oppo find X 5 Pro for a while now and well since it came out and the whole reason I haven't upgraded till like any newer phone is because for me I love the UI on the oppo and like the vivos A lot of the Chinese phones they're really good for multitasking like really really good yeah sure Samsung is a pretty good competitor but even within its own quote unquote ecosystem it's mid and also the front cameras have always been stuck at 1080p 60 FPS now it's finally upgraded to 4K 60fps and it looks great also in terms of price to performance and everything that you get within the box straight away there's no point of buying a Samsung or a Google because outside of that you'd still have to buy a case you still have to buy a plug those things come with the phone at the box and that is why I haven't swapped from a Chinese phone since
Bali Indonesia eh
The perfect android 🤖 phone that can compete with iPhone 16 series 😮
Hi
I went on that exact zip line in bali too 😂 a lot of fun
The AI features are the highlight of this phone.
First time first 🙃
