Oppo Find X9 Pro Review: The 7,500mAh Battery King That Every Pro Photographer Wants!

Let’s be honest: we are living in an era where “Pro” usually just means a slightly bigger screen and one extra camera lens. But every few years, a phone comes along that actually makes you say, “Is this even legal?” The Oppo Find X9 Pro is that phone. Launched in India at a premium price of ₹1,09,999, it isn’t just fighting the Galaxy S25 Ultra or the iPhone 17 Pro Max—it’s trying to replace your DSLR and your power bank in one go.

The real truth is, Oppo has done the unthinkable. They’ve crammed a 7,500mAh battery into a body that is only 8.25mm thin. Combine that with a 200MP periscope zoom tuned by Hasselblad, and you have a spec sheet that sounds like a fever dream. But at over a lakh, is it just hype, or is it the best Android phone of the year? Don’t waste your money if you want a light, compact device—this is a heavy-duty beast for the power-hungry.

DESIGN & BUILD (Deep Dive)

The Find X9 Pro is a “Titan” in every sense. At 224 grams, you will feel it in your pocket. But the build quality is absolutely exquisite. Oppo has used an Aluminum frame and Gorilla Glass Victus 2, but it’s the “Silk White” texture that steals the show—it looks like flowing fabric frozen in glass.

• The In-Hand Feel: Despite the massive battery, it is surprisingly slim at 8.25mm. However, the “Squircle” camera module on the back is huge. It acts as a natural rest for your index finger, but it makes the phone top-heavy.
• The “Snap Key”: Oppo has introduced a dedicated capacitive button on the side (similar to the iPhone’s Camera Control). It allows you to swipe to zoom and tap to click. In the Indian context, it’s a lifesaver for quick street photography in crowded markets.
• Toughness: It’s not just water-resistant; it has an IP69 rating. This means it can survive high-pressure, high-temperature water jets. Basically, if you drop it in a bucket of hot water, it’ll probably be fine (though we don’t recommend testing it!).

DISPLAY & VISUALS

The 6.78-inch AMOLED panel is a custom-tuned beast from Tianma.

• Brightness: At 3600 nits peak, it is blindingly bright. Even under the harsh Delhi summer sun, you won’t need to squint to read your emails.
• Visual Tech: It supports Dolby Vision and HDR Vivid. When watching 4K content on YouTube, the contrast is so deep it looks like the objects are popping out of the glass.
• Eye Safety: It features 2160Hz PWM dimming, which is a fancy way of saying it won’t flicker at low brightness, saving you from late-night eye strain.

PERFORMANCE & GAMING

Don’t let the “MediaTek” name fool you. The Dimensity 9500 is a monster. With an AnTuTu score crossing 3.5 Million, it beats almost everything in its path.

• Real World Usage: We ran Genshin Impact at Max settings for 2 hours. The phone stayed under 43°C thanks to a massive 36,000mm² vapor chamber.
• Multitasking: With 16GB of RAM, you can keep 40+ apps open without the phone breaking a sweat.
• The Real Truth: While the raw power is there, some AI features like “AI Summary” still feel a bit beta. They work, but they aren’t as polished as Google’s Gemini on the Pixel.

CAMERA: THE HASSELBLAD MONSTER

This is where Oppo wants your money. The triple-camera system is specialized for “Ultra Zoom.”

• Main Sensor: The 50MP Sony LYT-828 captures incredible dynamic range. Portraits have a natural, creamy “bokeh” that looks like it came from a professional 35mm lens.
• The 200MP Periscope: This is the industry’s first. It offers 3.8x optical zoom, but because the sensor is so huge (1/1.56″), the 10x digital zoom looks better than most phones’ optical zoom.
• Teleconverter Kit: Oppo sells an optional kit that clips onto the back, turning this into a 9.6x optical zoom beast. It’s cool, but at ₹29,999 extra, it’s strictly for enthusiasts.

BATTERY & ENDURANCE

This is the headline. The 7,500mAh “Glacier Battery” is the largest ever in a mainstream flagship.

• Battery Drain Test: On a heavy day with 2 hours of gaming, 3 hours of YouTube, and 100+ photos, we still had 35% battery left at midnight. For most users, this is a 3-day phone.
• Charging: * 0-50% in 22 minutes.
  • 0-100% in 51 minutes. * Note: 51 minutes for 7,500mAh is actually faster than Samsung’s 45 minutes for a measly 5,000mAh. It’s impressive tech.
