OPPO Find X9 Series Launches Globally, Redefining Flagship Experience with 200MP Hasselblad Telephoto, 7000+mAh Battery, Top-Tier Performance, and ColorOS 16
“Find X9 Series represents a giant leap forward in mobile imaging, driven by industry-leading innovations like the 200MP Hasselblad Telephoto,” said Pete Lau, SVP and Chief Product Officer at OPPO. “As OPPO’s new-generation flagship, Find X9 Series delivers a comprehensive, top-to-bottom upgrade, setting a new global standard for smartphone excellence.”
Precision in Every Pixel: The New-Generation Hasselblad Master Camera System
Continuing the Find X legacy of imaging innovation, Find X9 Series debuts a new-generation Hasselblad Master Camera System. By pairing cutting-edge hardware with advanced computational photography, the series represents a major leap in image quality.
Find X9 features a pro-level 50MP main camera with a 1/1.4-inch Sony LYT-808 sensor and an f/1.6 aperture, capturing 57% more light for stunning clarity. It’s joined by a versatile 50MP ultra-wide camera with autofocus for macro photography and a 50MP periscope telephoto camera featuring a 1/1.95-inch Sony LYT600 sensor for superior zoom shots. Complementing the three 50MP cameras is an industry-first True Color Camera. This dedicated spectral sensor precisely measures ambient light, resulting in more accurate color reproduction even in the most difficult lighting.
Find X9 Pro builds on this foundation with an upgraded main and telephoto camera. The Ultra XDR Main Camera features a customized 1/1.28-inch Sony LYT 828 sensor. This sensor uses groundbreaking Real-Time Triple Exposure technology that captures breathtaking detail in both shadows and highlights. Amping up its telephoto capabilities, Find X9 Pro introduces the 200MP Hasselblad Telephoto. Developed in partnership with Hasselblad, this 3x camera features a massive 1/1.56-inch 200MP sensor. It’s paired with a Hasselblad-certified lens that has an ultra-fast f/2.1 aperture for superior light gathering and a 10cm minimum focus distance for incredible macro shots. To carry that even further, OPPO developed an Active Optical Alignment process that precisely matches the lens with the sensor, boosting resolution by an additional 15%.
Debuting on Find X9 Series is the brand-new LUMO Image Engine, OPPO’s suite of computational photography algorithms that enhances clarity, dynamic range, and color science while ensuring photos look natural. By rebuilding the imaging pipeline with Parallel Computing, the engine achieves more with less: up to 50% less CPU usage, 60% less memory usage, and 50% less power consumption.1
The efficiency of the LUMO Image Engine unlocks the full potential of the high-resolution sensors. In bright daylight, users can capture photos in full 50MP resolution by default, delivering over four times the detail of standard 12MP images. In low light or other challenging cases, the camera intelligently switches to 25MP or 12MP modes, using pixel binning for superior noise control.
The series also introduces industry-first 4K Motion Photos, elevating video resolution from 1080p to 4K for dramatically clearer results. Additionally, users can extract any frame as a high-resolution still image, ensuring every moment is preserved in perfect detail.
Your Best Companion for Concerts
Find X9 Series is engineered to be the perfect companion for concerts and live events, providing unrivaled zoom in both photo and video shooting.
By intelligently cropping its 200MP sensor, Find X9 Pro delivers high-quality lossless zoom up to 13.2x, while both models feature OPPO’s Super Zoom algorithm for enhanced clarity up to 120x. With OPPO’s Stage Mode, users can capture concert photos with enhanced contrast and tone for a dramatic, atmospheric effect.
The series’ pro-grade video capabilities are equally impressive, as both devices support 4K 120fps Dolby Vision HDR video recording on the main camera, with Find X9 Pro extending this capability to its 200MP Hasselblad Telephoto. For professional users, Find X9 Series supports LOG recording with ACES certification, providing a flat, data-rich file that serves as the perfect canvas for professional color grading.
For the ultimate advantage, OPPO also offers the Hasselblad Teleconverter. This professional-grade optical accessory, designed exclusively for Find X9 Pro, transforms the phone into a 10x optical super-zoom powerhouse, enabling up to 200x digital zoom for photos and 50x for video.
A New Era of Battery Power: 7000mAh and Beyond
Find X9 is equipped with a substantial 7025mAh battery, all within a slim 7.99mm profile. Taking advantage of its larger size, Find X9 Pro packs an even more impressive 7500mAh battery, the largest in any OPPO flagship.
Fitting all that battery power into such a slender frame is made possible by the third-generation OPPO Silicon-Carbon Battery, which has 15% silicon content. And with OPPO’s customized spherical carbon material, Find X9 Series is engineered for long-term reliability, retaining over 80% of its original capacity even after five years of typical use. 1
When it’s time to recharge, both models support 80W OPPO SUPERVOOC™ wired flash charging, 50W AIRVOOC™ wireless charging, and 10W reverse wireless charging for convenient power top-ups.
Elegant Design, Built to Last
Find X9 Series features a modern, flat-edged aesthetic with a subtly contoured frame for a comfortable grip. The streamlined camera module is positioned to stay clear of fingers during use.
Both models feature a new-generation flat display with ultra-thin, 1.15mm symmetrical bezels for an immersive, borderless viewing experience. The 120Hz displays boast a peak outdoor brightness of 3600 nits and a minimum brightness of 1 nit, combined with high-frequency PWM dimming for eye comfort in all conditions.
Find X9 is available in three sophisticated finishes: Titanium Grey, Space Black, and Velvet Red. Find X9 Pro is offered in exclusive Silk White and Titanium Charcoal finishes. All models feature a matte aluminum frame and glass back cover that resists fingerprints.
Beyond aesthetics, both devices are engineered for exceptional durability. With IP66, IP68, and IP69 ratings, Find X9 Series delivers class-leading protection against dust, powerful water jets, water submersion, and even high-temperature spray.
Unleash the Peak Power of Dimensity
Find X9 Series is powered by the cutting-edge MediaTek Dimensity 9500 chipset. Built on TSMC’s third-generation 3nm process, its All-Big-Core CPU architecture achieves up to 32% higher performance and 55% less peak power consumption. The Arm G1-Ultra GPU delivers a massive boost as well, with 33% higher graphics performance and 42% better power efficiency, while the new MediaTek NPU 990 offers over double the performance with 56% more efficiency. These capabilities are enhanced by Find X9 Series’ customized vapor chambers, ensuring smooth and stable gameplay that stays cool to the touch. 2
Developed in close collaboration with MediaTek, OPPO’s All-New Trinity Engine redefines chip-level resource management for sustained high performance and superior power efficiency. This includes features like Chip-Level Dynamic Frame Sync for greater fluency in high-stress scenarios, a Unified Computing Power Model for over 90% accuracy in power-consumption prediction, and Sensor Offload, resulting in 16.1% less power usage during 4K 60fps HDR video recording. 1
ColorOS 16: Smarter, Smoother, More Connected
Debuting on OPPO Find X9 Series, ColorOS 16 sets a new benchmark for smoothness, intelligence, and connectivity.
Building on the foundation of ColorOS 15’s Parallel Animation, the new Seamless Animation delivers instantaneous, fluid interactions powered by the All-New Luminous Rendering Engine.
ColorOS 16 also brings a range of AI-powered features that boost productivity and creativity. With AI Mind Space, users can capture on-screen content instantly using the new Snap Key. AI Recorder automatically generates titles and summaries, while AI Portrait Glow enhances low-light portraits by balancing light and skin tones with a single tap.
Expanding its cross-device capabilities, O+ Connect now supports both Mac and Windows. Users can manage phone files from their computer or remotely control their PC via their phone. Screen Mirroring allows up to five apps to be displayed and operated using a mouse and keyboard—perfect for multitasking across devices.
OPPO Find X9 and Find X9 Pro Availability
OPPO Find X9 and Find X9 Pro will be available globally beginning at early November. Find X9 comes in 12GB + 256GB, 12GB + 512GB, and 16GB + 512GB configurations, while the Find X9 Pro is offered in a 16GB + 512GB configuration. 3

Airwallex and Air Corporate Launch One-Step Setup for Hong Kong Startups to Deliver Day-One Transaction Readiness
New partnership turns incorporation into a transaction-ready business in a single application — and sponsors 10 founders every month with a free upgrade to the fully-managed Expert package
Hong Kong SAR– Media OutReach Newswire – 14 August 2026 – Air Corporate, a Hong Kong-based digital corporate services provider, and Airwallex, a leading global payments and financial platform for modern businesses, have announced a strategic partnership that eliminates one of the most persistent friction points in business setup: the need to complete two separate applications for company registration and opening a payment account. Through a single application with Air Corporate, eligible founders now receive both a registered Hong Kong legal entity and a live Airwallex multi-currency account. To mark the launch, Airwallex and Air Corporate are sponsoring 10 Air Corporate clients each month with a complimentary upgrade to the fully-managed Expert package, removing the cost barrier that has historically kept early-stage founders on slower, self-managed paths.
The Two-Application Problem
Until now, setting up a business in Hong Kong has required two distinct processes. A founder first incorporates the company, then separately applies to a bank or payment provider, often resubmitting the same KYC, director, and shareholder documents that were already provided during incorporation. Approval timelines vary, rejections occur, and an incorporated company may remain unable to transact after the registration is complete. For founders trying to move quickly, this gap between incorporation and payment readiness has long been an operational obstacle.
One Application, Two Outcomes: The Expert Package
The Expert package serves as the primary component of this initiative. When a client onboards with Air Corporate under this tier, Air Corporate facilitates the entire Airwallex account-opening process on their behalf, thereby eliminating duplicate paperwork and the need for separate submissions to multiple providers. This consolidated approach allows founders to proceed from incorporation to operational status in as little as one to two weeks, compared to the typical weeks to months required for traditional banking solutions.
The Sponsorship: 10 Founders Every Month
Airwallex and Air Corporate are sponsoring a complimentary Expert upgrade for 10 Air Corporate clients each month. Founders who qualify receive a fully managed Airwallex account opening service at no additional cost. This is the same service available through the paid Expert tier. Sponsorship spots reset each month, with new availability opening to qualifying founders on an ongoing basis. Eligibility applies to new Air Corporate clients proceeding with company registration in Hong Kong, and available spots can be confirmed directly with the Air Corporate team.
Why Hong Kong?
Hong Kong remains the leading jurisdiction for founders entering Asian markets. Offshore profits are not subject to local tax; there are no foreign exchange controls; incorporation is fast; and the territory serves as a direct gateway to Mainland China and ASEAN. For international businesses, Hong Kong company registration has become the standard first step in a regional expansion strategy, given that the legal, regulatory, and financial infrastructure required to operate internationally is already in place.
What Airwallex Brings to the Partnership
Airwallex provides the payment infrastructure that enables day-one operability. Its platform supports multi-currency accounts, local collection in major currencies, foreign exchange at market-leading rates, and global payouts, all managed from a single interface. For founders operating across borders, having this capability active from the moment of incorporation removes the lag that typically delays first revenue and complicates early cash flow management.
Speaker Quote
“Our goal at Airwallex has always been to empower businesses to scale globally without borders or operational friction. Partnering with Air Corporate allows us to tackle one of the earliest and most persistent bottlenecks that founders face: the lag between becoming a legal entity and actually being able to transact. By consolidating company registration and financial setup into a single, seamless step, we are giving startups day-one operability so they can focus entirely on growth and building momentum from the very start,” said Marcus Cheng, Associate Director, GTM Partnerships, SME & Growth, Airwallex Hong Kong.
Who This Is For
This solution is built for e-commerce brands, cross-border trade, professional service providers, , and first-time founders expanding into or out of Asia who need to be fully operational and able to collect payments upon registration, without having to manage two separate onboarding processes simultaneously.
Available Now
Founders can apply directly through Air Corporate and check the availability of the monthly sponsored Expert upgrade spots. Further information is available at Air-Corporate.com/hk/Airwallex. Terms and conditions apply.

As a leading overseas payment service provider (PSP), PayerMax has integrated Rakuten Pay to enable international merchants to adopt this payment method in Japan. This integration marks a significant milestone in the technical collaboration, successfully supporting merchants in leveraging Rakuten Pay for their local operations.
The milestone not only enhances the localized payment experience for Last War players in Japan, but also demonstrates how international game publishers can leverage trusted local payment partnerships to accelerate market entry, strengthen localization and better engage Japanese consumers.
Connecting with Japanese Players Starts with Local Payments
As more global game publishers expand into Japan, localized payment experiences have become an increasingly important part of player acquisition, monetization and long-term growth.
As one of the flagship payment services within the Rakuten Ecosystem, Rakuten Pay plays a central role in Japan’s digital commerce landscape. The Rakuten Ecosystem connects more than 100 million registered members across e-commerce, financial services, travel, mobile and offline retail, and Rakuten Pay has become one of Japan’s most widely adopted local payment methods.
For international game publishers, integrating Rakuten Pay is about more than offering another payment option. It provides access to one of Japan’s most established consumer ecosystems, allowing games to deliver payment experiences aligned with local player preferences while building stronger engagement in one of the world’s most competitive gaming markets.
Supporting Last War Highlights PayerMax’s Local Payment Expertise in Japan
As one of the fastest-growing strategy games worldwide, Last War continues to expand its global footprint, with Japan representing one of its key strategic markets. As expectations for localized payment experiences continue to rise, enabling familiar and trusted local payment methods has become an important part of enhancing player experience and supporting sustainable growth.
With support from PayerMax, Last War successfully integrated Rakuten Pay, becoming a leading overseas game to support the payment method and offering Japanese players a more localized and seamless payment experience.
Designed to support international businesses entering Japan, PayerMax provides a unified payment solution that bridges the gap between global merchants and the local ecosystem. By leveraging PayerMax’s integration with Rakuten Pay, PayerMax serves as a gateway for international businesses to establish a strong presence in the Japanese market.
Faster Market Entry
Through PayerMax’s system integration with Rakuten Payment, eligible merchants benefit from a standardized integration pathway that shortens implementation timelines and accelerates go-to-market execution in Japan.
Reliable Compliance and Fund Management Enablement
Leveraging the established business relationships between PayerMax and Rakuten Pay, merchants are empowered to integrate Rakuten Pay through a streamlined, standardized pathway which is aligned with Japan’s local regulatory and operational requirements, thereby delivering a payment experience that resonates with the everyday spending habits of Japanese players. Furthermore, within this collaborative framework, PayerMax and Rakuten Pay facilitate the unified orchestration of critical processes including KYC, anti‑money laundering (AML) and fund management, effectively alleviating the operational complexities and associated costs of local payment execution. This enables merchants to refocus their resources on sustainable business growth and enriched player engagement.
Access to Japan’s Consumer Ecosystem
Through PayerMax, businesses can better engage local consumers, strengthen brand presence and build sustainable long-term growth in Japan.
The successful integration for Last War not only demonstrates the commercial value of the partnership between PayerMax and Rakuten Payment, but also provides a proven reference for more global game publishers and digital content companies expanding into Japan.
Executive Quotes
Hiroki Sogawa, Executive Officer, Rakuten Payment, said:
“We are pleased to partner with PayerMax and to see Last War, a leading title, successfully integrate Rakuten Pay as a payment option. Through this collaboration, we look forward to supporting more international businesses and digital content providers in delivering trusted, localized payment experiences for Japanese consumers.”
Will, APAC General Manager of PayerMax, said:
“Integrating with Rakuten Pay marks an important milestone in PayerMax’s expansion of local payment capabilities in Japan. The successful launch of Last War reflects the strength of our partnership and demonstrates our ability to help global game publishers and international businesses localize faster through trusted local payment infrastructure. Looking ahead, we will continue working with leading local payment partners worldwide to deliver secure, compliant and scalable payment solutions for global merchants.”
Strengthening Local Payment Infrastructure for Global Growth
The partnership with Rakuten Payment represents another important milestone in PayerMax’s strategy to strengthen local payment infrastructure across key global markets and further expand its local payment capabilities in Japan.
Today, PayerMax supports businesses across more than 150 markets and offers access to over 600 payment methods worldwide, backed by an extensive network of local payment partners spanning Japan, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Latin America and other high-growth regions.
Rather than simply aggregating payment methods, PayerMax focuses on connecting businesses with the local payment ecosystems that shape consumer behavior in each market. By combining enterprise-grade payment technology with trusted local partnerships, PayerMax enables international businesses to localize faster, operate more efficiently and achieve sustainable global growth.
