OPPO Tests Find X10 Ultra With 2nm Dimensity 9600 Pro as Snapdragon Option Leads

Q: If the Find X10 Ultra shares the Dimensity 9600 Pro with the Pro Max, what will truly make the Ultra worth its premium price?

If OPPO gives the Find X10 Ultra the same Dimensity 9600 Pro as the Pro Max, the Ultra will only justify a premium if it delivers a meaningfully better camera experience and a more complete “no-compromise” package. The leaks point squarely in that direction. The rumored Ultra camera system is far more ambitious than the Pro Max on paper: a 200MP main sensor with LOFIC for better dynamic range, a second 200MP periscope telephoto, a separate 50MP 10x periscope, and a 100MP front camera. That would make the Ultra less about raw chip advantage and more about optical flexibility, low-light zoom performance, and image quality across focal lengths. Reports that OPPO is testing custom tuning for its LUMO True Image Engine also matter, because OPPO’s current pitch is not just high megapixel counts but more natural color, tone, and detail. To make the price credible, OPPO will also need to separate the Ultra from the Pro Max in the parts buyers feel every day. Rumored extras such as a larger 6.89-inch 2K LTPO 144Hz display and an 8,500mAh battery would help, but only if they ship. At a price reportedly near CNY 10,000, buyers will expect the Ultra to be the best in the lineup on screen, battery, materials, and camera hardware, not just a minor variant. If the chipset is shared, the Ultra’s value will come from whether its cameras and tuning produce visibly better photos and video than the Pro Max in real use.

OPPO is testing the Find X10 Ultra with MediaTek’s 2nm Dimensity 9600 Pro and custom imaging algorithms tied to its Lumo True Image Engine, signaling a possible break from Qualcomm in its top camera phone.
Smart Pikachu said a Snapdragon version remains in development and is currently more likely to ship, with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 still holding the edge.
The Dimensity 9600 Pro uses two C2-Ultra cores at up to 4.55GHz plus six performance cores, and OPPO has already confirmed the chip for the Find X10 Pro Max.
Leaks point to a camera-heavy Ultra strategy: a 200MP main sensor, a second 200MP periscope, a 50MP 10x periscope lens and a 100MP front camera.
If OPPO adopts MediaTek, the Ultra and Pro Max could share the same flagship SoC, leaving camera hardware and image processing to justify the Ultra’s higher positioning ahead of a first-half 2027 China launch.
