March 2020 - PHILIPPINES - Find X2 series is the next generation flagship offering of OPPO that promises an all-round powerful camera experience, battery life, and one of the most advanced screens in the industry. OPPO is bringing the Find X2 Pro to the Philippines this March, ideal for Filipino users who are now consuming digital content at a much faster rate and simultaneously have higher requirements for the content quality. Catering to these needs, Find X2 Pro empowers users to live their lives more efficiently on-the-go.

The device is equipped with a 120Hz QHD+ AMOLED screen, an all-round ultra-vision-camera system, the industry’s fastest 65W SuperVOOC 2.0 flash charging technology, and the most advanced 5G mobile platform—Snapdragon 865. The Find X2 Pro is also the first mobile phone to support all-pixel omnidirectional focus and up to 12bit photo capturing.

"To deliver a superior smartphone experience to our users, OPPO is constantly innovating all aspects of our products - from screen, photography, charging, battery life, and design. The clear, smooth, and professional display of the OPPO Find X2 Pro sets a new standard for flagship smartphones, bringing mobile interaction and display experience to a new level in the 5G era." said Brian Shen, Vice President and the President of Global Marketing at OPPO.



120Hz QHD+ professional display improves all-round visual experience

Find X2 Pro is equipped with an OPPO customized 120Hz QHD+ Ultra Vision Screen with more than one billion variations of color display capabilities, bringing a visual revolution in resolution, color, refresh rate, and brightness.

The device is also professionally calibrated in screen color, making the colors rich, accurate, and comparable to a professional display. DisplayMate, a third-party professional display testing institution has given A+ rating to Find X2 Pro establishing its screen display quality as above regular standards.

In addition, with the 240Hz high touch sampling rate, the Find X2 Pro screen significantly improves picture smoothness, and achieves more agile and accurate operation feedback.

Equipped with the O1 Ultra Vision Engine, the Find X2 Pro supports Motion Clear and HDR video enhancement. The Motion Clear can increase the frame of online video and sports broadcasts   with frame rates below 30 fps to 60 fps or even 120 fps. This makes the video play smoother, and minimizes motion jitter and stepped contours.

To bring users an immersive entertainment experience, the Find X2 Pro has built in powerful audio performance, equipped with high-power dual speakers with Dolby Atmos and can intelligently match application scenarios - such as music, movies and games.



Versatile and professional Ultra Vision Camera System

Find X2 Pro is equipped with a triple-camera combination, 48MP wide-angle lens + 48MP ultra-wide-angle lens + 13MP telephoto lens, whilst supporting 10x hybrid zoom. It uses the Sony IMX689 which has the largest sensor size among all 48MP mobile camera sensors in the industry. 

The Find X2 Pro is the first smartphone to support All Pixel Omni-directional PDAF, with capability of achieving 100% pixel focusing and omnidirectional focusing. It also has a second-generation 10x hybrid zoom where users can also easily switch the zoom between the three cameras to shoot at a short distance of 3cm up to a maximum 60x zoom.

The Ultra Night Mode can cover all focal lengths with a maximum zoom of 60x, easily facilitating telephoto night shoots. A maximum of 30x smooth zooming is also achievable on video shooting.

Find X2 Pro is equipped with Ultra Steady Video Pro. Based on the 48MP and 120°ultra-wide-angle lens, with the brand new upgraded image stabilization algorithm, users can easily capture a wide-angle motion picture.

Find X2 Pro not only supports 4K 60fps video shooting, but also supports Live HDR video recording. By integrating 10bit video recording, the pixel-level real-time grading exposure and video color calibration, the Find X2 Pro can make the highlights and shadows in backlit scenes clearer and deliver a more textured video effect.

The pain point for consumers to create high quality content with smartphones is not only with how to shoot, but also to edit and share more easily. That is why the Find X2 series is also equipped with the video editing tool Soloop. It integrates fun recording, easy editing, and quick sharing, so users can edit amazing videos and share personal stories with just one click.

Powerful performance and appearance: on the inside and out 
Find X2 Pro with 12GB RAM + 512GB ROM, provides two options of orange vegan leather and black ceramic. Find X2 series is one of the first mobile phones to be equipped with Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 865 Mobile Platform. This guarantees a seamless user experience.

The curved surface design of its gradient glass screen create a visually borderless effect, making the phone round and smooth to touch.


ColorOS 7.1 debuts to global users

As OPPO’s latest iteration of its customized Android 10-based operating system, ColorOS 7.1 delivers a lightweight visual approach that simplifies the user interface, with a more intuitive animation system, and refined sound effects, allowing users to focus more on their content.

In addition to icon customization, ColorOS 7.1 specially adapted Dark Mode to the top 200 popular third party apps, opening up a superb reading experience in all-day conditions, whilst simultaneously improving battery life by 38%.

ColorOS 7.1 caters to more intuitive interactions. For example, the new weather-adaptive alarm automatically adjusts alarm sounds to the weather, while an upgraded haptic design helps deliver clearer, crisper touch response sounds and a more realistic touch experience.

ColorOS developed a set of tech solutions for faster and more seamless experience. Anti-fragmentation reduces backend memory fragmentation, while decreasing app termination and lagging by 93%. ColorOS 7.1 also boosts touch response and app launch speed, and ensures no latency even after long-term use.

OPPO understands the importance of privacy protection and always prioritizes the security of user data. Personal information protection allows users to shield their information from third-party apps. Private Safe transfers photos, videos, audio, and other documents to a secure “zone” in the storage folder, blocking access by apps. In addition, Payment Protection ensures financial security by scanning the payment environment within the system and apps, while App Lock encrypts apps, requiring either a passcode or a fingerprint scan for access.

ColorOS 7.1 also comes with customized features for the Find X2 Series users, including an AI-adaptive Eye Protection System that adjusts screen temperature and brightness.


Connecting users to the 5G era

During the March 6 global launch of the Find X2 series, OPPO unveiled the 5G enabled Find X2 series. To effectively navigate the complex network environments such as 4G, 5G, and WiFi, the Find X2 series integrates OPPO Smart 5G technology. It supports 5G + 4G dual-receiver, dual-card, and dual-standby with a more stable network. The device is capable of freely switching network systems according to the network conditions.

The Find X2 series 5G version will be released in selected markets with commercially available 5G connectivity services.

On January 18, the company handed 16 washers and dryers to the Inosluban-Marawoy Evacuation Center in Lipa City, with assistance from Batangas Governor Dodo Mandanas and Lipa City Councilor Mikee Morada. Samsung also lent a television set to the kids and other evacuees to access news and entertainment while in the evacuation center.

The project aims to help over 2,500 evacuees from either Tagaytay, Talisay, Tanauan, or other Batangas residents. In the first three days, over 1,400 kilograms of clothing have been washed.

Being displaced from their homes, having easy access to an everyday need greatly eases their situation, and allows those affected to focus more on recovering from the calamity.

The washers and dryers will remain in the evacuation center until the Taal Volcano’s alert level lowers down, with the situation being safer for the victims to return home.
