The Oppo Find X9 Ultra is Oppo's top-tier camera flagship, built around the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 and a Hasselblad-tuned quad rear camera. Its defining feature is a dual periscope setup: a 200MP 3x telephoto and a 50MP 10x periscope, so it reaches 10x optically where the Galaxy S26 Ultra stops at 5x. It is aimed at photographers who want serious zoom range and will accept a heavy phone.
The 6.82-inch LTPO AMOLED panel runs at 1440 x 3168 and 144Hz, up from 120Hz on the Find X9 Pro, with Dolby Vision and HDR10+. It is rated at 1,800 nits outdoors, with a 3,600-nit peak reserved for HDR content.
In lab testing it measured around 1,150 nits at maximum, below the Galaxy S26 Ultra's 1,480 nits, so the peak figure overstates everyday outdoor brightness.
A 200MP f/1.5 main camera on a 1/1.12-inch sensor is joined by a 200MP 3x periscope, a 50MP 10x periscope and a 50MP ultrawide, with Hasselblad colour calibration and 8K video. The twin periscopes out-reach the Galaxy S26 Ultra, which stops at 5x optical.
The trade-off: the 10x periscope's smaller 1/2.75-inch sensor and f/3.5 aperture mean its low-light reach at full zoom is likely to trail the main and 3x lenses.
A 7,050mAh silicon-carbon battery supports 100W wired and 50W wireless charging, well ahead of the Galaxy S26 Ultra's 5,000mAh and 60W wired, and lab testing returned a strong active-use score of over 20 hours. Reaching 100W needs Oppo's SuperVOOC charger; standard USB Power Delivery is much slower.
Within Oppo's range the lead narrows: the Find X9 Pro's larger 7,500mAh battery posted nearly 22 hours in the same test, so the Ultra charges faster but trails it on longevity.
At 163.2 x 77.0mm and 235g, the Find X9 Ultra is physically large. It pairs an aluminium frame and Gorilla Glass Victus 2 front with a glass or eco-leather back that raises thickness to 9.1mm, and carries IP68 and IP69 ratings. Colours include Tundra Umber, Canyon Orange and Polar Glacier.
The weight is the compromise: at 235g it is 21g heavier than the Galaxy S26 Ultra, so long one-handed use is more tiring.
The Find X9 Ultra runs the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 with up to 16GB of RAM and up to 1TB of storage, so heavy games and multitasking should be no problem. It ships on Android 16 with ColorOS 16 and up to five major Android upgrades from launch.
As the Galaxy S26 Ultra uses the same chipset, the real difference is longevity: Samsung promises up to seven major upgrades, two more than Oppo here.
The Find X9 Ultra suits mobile photographers who want long-range optical zoom, the biggest battery and fastest charging in the class. Buyers on an older Find series handset or rival flagship will feel the gains most. Anyone who values longer software support or a lighter body should weigh up the Galaxy S26 Ultra.
