Oppo and Hasselblad continue their mission to revolutionize smartphone camera photography, promoting the upcoming "groundbreaking advancements in mobile imaging"
In a groundbreaking move for mobile photography, Oppo and Hasselblad have extended their partnership to develop the next-generation imaging system for Oppo's flagship smartphones. This collaboration, which began four years ago, has been a significant force in advancing mobile imaging technology.
The latest development in this partnership is the release of the Oppo Find X8 Ultra. This flagship device, equipped with a penta-camera setup, including the world's first dual-periscope setup, is a testament to the partnership's commitment to pushing the boundaries of mobile imaging technology.
The Find X8 Ultra integrates Hasselblad's Natural Color Solution, re-engineered for mobile devices. This solution offers accurate and pleasing color reproduction, bringing a professional-grade color palette to smartphone photography. The device also features Hasselblad Portrait Mode, which provides a bokeh effect similar to that achieved with classic Hasselblad lenses, and Hasselblad Master Mode, inspired by Hasselblad's X2D mirrorless medium format camera, offering full manual camera control.
Moreover, the Find X8 Ultra includes Hasselblad XPan Mode, recreating the 65:24 wide aspect ratio, enabling users to capture unique and visually striking images. The device's imaging system is ranked as the number one smartphone camera in the world by DxOmark's Smartphone Camera Protocol, with a record-breaking overall score of 169.
Looking ahead, the partnership is working towards developing a new mobile imaging system that will set a higher benchmark for phone photography quality. Although specific details are not yet disclosed, the collaboration aims to push the boundaries of mobile imaging technology even further.
The upcoming Find X9 series is expected to incorporate this new imaging technology, promising enhanced camera capabilities and user experiences. This continued collaboration between Oppo and Hasselblad is a testament to their shared passion for innovation and delivering the ultimate imaging experience.
