According to a new rumor from Digital Chat Station on Weibo, Oppo’s upcoming Find X8 Ultra will be the first Ultra smartphone to launch with a flat screen this year.
The device will have extremely narrow screen bezels too, which is pretty much a given nowadays in that price range. With this, the curved screen trend is pretty much officially dead, following Samsung’s pioneering of it and the enthusiastic adoption by Chinese smartphone makers for a few years.

The Find X8 Ultra has been rumored to come with a telephoto macro camera, using the 50 MP Sony Lytia LYT-701 sensor with 3x optical zoom and OIS. The Find X8 Ultra should also have a 50 MP main camera with a 1-inch type Sony Lytia LYT-900 sensor with OIS, a 50 MP periscope telephoto camera with 6x optical zoom, and a 50 MP ultrawide camera too.
The Find X8 Ultra is expected to launch alongside the Find X8 Mini in February. It also gets an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor, satellite communication support, and a 6,000 mAh battery with support for 80W wired and 50W wireless charging. What it allegedly won’t get, however, is an official international launch.
