The OPPO Find X7 Ultra impressed us quite a bit overall, as we’ve said in our review. The phone not only has outstanding camera performance, but it’s a great phone in general. Well, the OPPO Find X7 Ultra ended up in the hands of the folks over at DXOMARK, and it managed to impress them.
The OPPO Find X7 Ultra has managed to take the top spot in DXOMARK rankings. Well, it technically shares that spot with the Huawei Mate 60 Pro+. It scored 157 points overall. So let’s break this down, shall we?
When it comes to photography in general, the phone scored 156 points. In terms of Bokeh, it scored 85 points, which is the top score on the site, it doesn’t get better than that.

DXOMARK had plenty to say about these cameras, and you can read a full report if you’re interested. We’ll sum things up here, though.
The company praised the color rendering from these cameras, and the same goes for the white balance. That goes for both photo and video. Excellent bokeh effect was also mentioned, with good subject isolation.
DXOMARK mentioned that the phone provides very good detail at medium and long-range tele, and good texture/noise trade-off in photo and video. That even goes for low-light photography. The last entry in the ‘Pros’ category was “accurate exposure and wide dynamic range on portraits and landscape shots”.
The company did mention some cons too. The phone has a slight loss of detail at close range for tele and ultrawide shots. Expore and tone mapping instabilities in video recording were also noticed, especially in high-contrast indoor scenes.
DXOMARK did note that the phone occasionally has unnatural texture rendering and slight overexposure in low-light photos.
