00:00:01.340 --> 00:00:05.210
- Holy shnikes. - [Andy] It's so smooth.

00:00:05.210 --> 00:00:08.870
- On paper, this thing look absolutely sick.

00:00:08.870 --> 00:00:15.620
Oh, I love the press packaging. This is the Oppo Find X3 Pro 5G,

00:00:15.670 --> 00:00:21.920
Snapdragon 888 processor, 12 gigs of RAM, 256 gigs of storage

00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:26.920
and what they call an impossible curve in the glass.

00:00:27.390 --> 00:00:32.150
I haven't seen any pictures of this yet because I have intentionally cloistered myself

00:00:32.150 --> 00:00:36.070
so I am excited to find out what an impossible curve is.

00:00:36.070 --> 00:00:40.730
It's apparently made of Corning Gorilla Glass 5, so--

00:00:40.730 --> 00:00:42.883
Oh, that is cool.

00:00:46.460 --> 00:00:49.463
That... Is breathtaking.

00:00:50.940 --> 00:00:52.840
Have you seen this Andy? - [Andy] No.

00:00:54.340 --> 00:00:58.756
- Holy shnikes. - [Andy] It's so smooth.

00:00:59.720 --> 00:01:03.630
- I mean, I am not a huge fan of camera bumps

00:01:04.620 --> 00:01:09.123
but that's not a bump, that's like, it's a contour.

00:01:14.200 --> 00:01:17.880
That's pretty cool. Okay, okay, let's start at the back.

00:01:17.880 --> 00:01:22.560
You've got dual 50 megapixel cameras, so I've wondered this for a long time,

00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:27.960
The cost difference between one sensor and another can't be that much, can it?

00:01:27.960 --> 00:01:33.160
Why not just put a top quality sensor in both your main shooter and your ultra wide?

00:01:33.160 --> 00:01:38.560
Well, that's exactly what Oppo did. Then they have a third camera that's a three megapixel

00:01:38.560 --> 00:01:42.270
that is apparently for like micro photography.

00:01:42.270 --> 00:01:45.670
In the front, we've got a 32 megapixel front-facing camera.

00:01:45.670 --> 00:01:51.970
Obviously then the front would be a front-facing camera and is a hole punch, not a huge fan but let's see

00:01:51.970 --> 00:01:54.603
if this thing can make it up to me in some other ways.

00:01:56.040 --> 00:02:00.260
You know, one of the selling points for this form Oppo is that it's pretty light.

00:02:00.260 --> 00:02:03.730
I actually tend to agree, at 178 grams

00:02:03.730 --> 00:02:08.140
it doesn't feel as chunky as a lot of current flagships.

00:02:08.140 --> 00:02:13.610
I don't know, maybe it's not that much less heavy but it definitely feels less chunky.

00:02:13.610 --> 00:02:18.650
Now you are going to give up some spec for that. They had to use a super thin vapor chamber

00:02:18.650 --> 00:02:24.600
in order to keep the Snapdragon 888 cool in here, and it only has a 4500 milliamp power battery,

00:02:24.600 --> 00:02:27.630
but it does feature their VOOC fast charging,

00:02:27.630 --> 00:02:31.960
including 30 watt wireless charging. Now I've made myself clear in the past

00:02:31.960 --> 00:02:36.380
that I'm not super comfortable with high-speed charging, particularly high-speed wireless charging,

00:02:36.380 --> 00:02:40.280
and it's not the best way to make your battery last as long as possible.

00:02:40.280 --> 00:02:43.740
But at least it's there as an option if you're almost depleted and you need

00:02:43.740 --> 00:02:48.760
to be able to top up a little bit, right before you head out of the house. Thanks to Volta for sponsoring today's video.

00:02:48.760 --> 00:02:51.890
Their Volta spark 60 watt is a nylon braided charging cable

00:02:51.890 --> 00:02:55.580
with their snag safe magnetic connection tip that prevents accidents.

00:02:55.580 --> 00:03:00.630
It also allows convenient swapping between lightning, micro USB and USB Type-C.

00:03:00.630 --> 00:03:03.640
There's another Spark version with a hundred watt support

00:03:03.640 --> 00:03:07.780
with quick charge 4.0 to power your Google and Samsung phones faster.

00:03:07.780 --> 00:03:11.660
So you use the link in the video description below to buy your Volta Spark cables risk-Free

00:03:11.660 --> 00:03:15.150
with their 30 day money back guarantee and lifetime warranty.

00:03:15.150 --> 00:03:18.860
Oh, I am not a fan of the screen protector

00:03:18.860 --> 00:03:22.730
that they've got on this thing out of the box. I appreciate the inclusion but you can see

00:03:22.730 --> 00:03:26.650
it doesn't quite go to the edges of what is otherwise a very,

00:03:26.650 --> 00:03:29.810
I was a huge fan of the Galaxy S6 Edge,

00:03:29.810 --> 00:03:33.440
like way back in the day, and I really liked that kind of feel,

00:03:33.440 --> 00:03:37.300
the Note 7 for that matter, I really loved the shape of.

00:03:37.300 --> 00:03:41.310
And this is a very similar shaped phone, it's nice and sleek, it's slim.

00:03:41.310 --> 00:03:44.470
But the one thing about it that doesn't feel good in the hand

00:03:44.470 --> 00:03:48.620
is this screen protector is not the same experience

00:03:48.620 --> 00:03:51.670
as Gorilla Glass 5 so I'm going to take it off, it's--

00:03:51.670 --> 00:03:53.983
Oh yeah, oh yeah, it's, it's vinyl.

00:03:54.852 --> 00:03:59.510
- [Andy] It's not a screen protector. - Are you sure it's not? - [Andy] No, not for me.

00:03:59.510 --> 00:04:02.900
Not even for me, so. - Yeah, no that's--

00:04:02.900 --> 00:04:07.160
Oh, that's much better. That feels very nice in the hand.

00:04:07.160 --> 00:04:10.010
Now, back to that finish on the back for a second though.

00:04:12.170 --> 00:04:16.744
Probably could to use a little more fingerprint resistance. I've been sitting here for about four minutes.

00:04:16.744 --> 00:04:20.180
(laughing) Let's see if it's at least easy to clean though

00:04:20.180 --> 00:04:24.390
with this wonderful shirt from lttstore.com. (gasping)

00:04:24.390 --> 00:04:28.140
Here's something I didn't think of. Look at this, check this out, Andy.

00:04:28.140 --> 00:04:34.410
Okay, are you ready? Are you ready? - [Andy] Yeah. - Boom, no, dust and grime build-up around the camera bump.

00:04:34.410 --> 00:04:38.120
- [Andy] So nice. - Right? I didn't even think of that.

00:04:38.120 --> 00:04:42.930
Okay, this is a stupid, stupid thing for me to get all hung up on,

00:04:42.930 --> 00:04:46.010
but it really does, it feels different.

00:04:46.010 --> 00:04:49.420
Like it feels different, like here, hold on. I got do, I got to do a slide test.

00:04:49.420 --> 00:04:53.790
I got to do a slide test here. Oh. Okay.

00:04:53.790 --> 00:04:56.093
Hah. Hah.

00:04:57.340 --> 00:04:58.273
Oh, Andy.

00:05:01.070 --> 00:05:04.070
That... - [Andy] That is very smooth.

00:05:04.070 --> 00:05:07.710
- That needs to be the future. Where's Apple with this stuff?

00:05:07.710 --> 00:05:11.350
Included in the box, you've got a charger and a charging cable.

00:05:11.350 --> 00:05:15.740
Yeah, 65 watts, so, we've got a fast charger and a charging cable.

00:05:15.740 --> 00:05:21.010
Unfortunately this is not appropriate for my region. That's okay, minor details.

00:05:21.010 --> 00:05:22.676
Oh, hello. Whoop.

00:05:25.350 --> 00:05:27.000
Oh, these look like crappy cases,

00:05:29.460 --> 00:05:33.490
Lo and behold, they are. It would be a crime.

00:05:33.490 --> 00:05:36.530
Actually, It doesn't feel that crappy. That feels pretty nice.

00:05:36.530 --> 00:05:43.030
It would still be criminal, it would be criminal to have a phone that looks this good outside of the case

00:05:43.030 --> 00:05:46.470
and put a freaking case on it, I don't approve.

00:05:46.470 --> 00:05:49.760
It's too good to put a layer between you and the enjoyment.

00:05:49.760 --> 00:05:52.963
Let's set up the in-screen fingerprint sensor here, see if it's responsive.

00:05:54.090 --> 00:05:58.140
It seems a little slow, but it remains to be seen if that's just the training period.

00:05:59.810 --> 00:06:04.930
Positions a little bit lower than I'm used to and probably not where I prefer.

00:06:04.930 --> 00:06:08.870
Oh, they've got face unlock though. Still not sure.

00:06:08.870 --> 00:06:12.980
Wait, what? Oh, that was, that was very fast.

00:06:12.980 --> 00:06:19.293
Okay. I don't know how much I trust face unlocks that are not using like the topography of your face as well.

00:06:20.420 --> 00:06:23.690
Yeah, I like it up a little bit higher, but the advantage of this approach

00:06:23.690 --> 00:06:27.000
is that it's a little bit easier to landmark the spot without looking at it.

00:06:27.000 --> 00:06:30.700
Oh, there it is. I'm trying not to look at it here.

00:06:30.700 --> 00:06:34.640
It's got a 120 Hertz display that runs at 1440 by 3216.

00:06:35.760 --> 00:06:39.950
So whatever aspect ratio that is basically means it has extremely high pixel density

00:06:39.950 --> 00:06:44.560
at around 516 pixels per inch. I really, with all these features, don't know

00:06:44.560 --> 00:06:51.020
if I would expect amazing battery life out of it cause it also boasts 1300 nit peak brightness

00:06:51.020 --> 00:06:55.900
on the OLED display. So, if you're watching HDR 10 plus content, for example,

00:06:55.900 --> 00:06:59.680
you'd expect this thing to get pretty flipping bright.

00:06:59.680 --> 00:07:04.280
Volume rockers over on the side, two separate buttons, then you've got your lock button over on the right.

00:07:04.280 --> 00:07:08.973
On the bottom, we've got USB Type-C for charging as well as a dual SIM SIM slot.

00:07:09.880 --> 00:07:14.860
Nothing on the top, but what's really nice is they managed to cram stereo speakers into it

00:07:14.860 --> 00:07:20.370
so you've got an amplified earpiece speaker right here and then a bottom firing speaker that,

00:07:20.370 --> 00:07:24.289
let's actually have a quick look here and see how balanced the stereo effects is.

00:07:24.289 --> 00:07:27.706
(music playing on phone)

00:07:33.350 --> 00:07:38.890
Typically with a very small device, my expectations are a little bit lower, but this is great.

00:07:38.890 --> 00:07:43.200
Now I'm really curious about this three megapixel camera, Oh, and I missed one of the cameras before.

00:07:43.200 --> 00:07:46.290
It actually has a total of five cameras, including the front-facing one,

00:07:46.290 --> 00:07:53.210
there's also a 13 megapixel telephoto camera with a 5X hybrid optical zoom and 20X digital zoom.

00:07:53.210 --> 00:07:57.990
So, 5X hybrid optical, let's find out what is actually optical.

00:07:57.990 --> 00:08:01.530
Okay, so there's our little figurines

00:08:01.530 --> 00:08:05.350
that we take pictures of there. Here it is with our main shooter.

00:08:05.350 --> 00:08:08.590
Okay. Well, that's either an indictment of the main shooter

00:08:08.590 --> 00:08:12.240
or an indication that these telephotos are actually pretty strong.

00:08:12.240 --> 00:08:16.860
A little bit of noise in here, but definitely a cleaner image than the main one.

00:08:16.860 --> 00:08:21.860
One cool thing about this device, should you decide to take advantage of it, is full support for 10-bit color.

00:08:21.860 --> 00:08:27.320
So, sensor, firmware, software and of course the display itself are all capable

00:08:27.320 --> 00:08:31.140
of displaying a billion colors. Now whether that'll make a difference

00:08:31.140 --> 00:08:36.360
to you in your day-to-day life, hard to say, but it could give you a little bit more flexibility

00:08:36.360 --> 00:08:41.450
in post if nothing else. So it's setting that you're going to have to adjust here for your photos.

00:08:41.450 --> 00:08:46.030
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, just like that. And it does warn you that not everything

00:08:46.030 --> 00:08:49.950
is going to be compatible with your 10-bit pictures.

00:08:49.950 --> 00:08:53.950
Hold on, Andy, I'm going to go for a little walk, okay? - [Andy] Sure, yeah. - I'll be right back.

00:08:55.490 --> 00:08:57.163
Okay, let's have a look at this.

00:08:59.950 --> 00:09:01.323
That is not bad.

00:09:04.700 --> 00:09:08.950
So you can see it's kind of compensating there as I turned around the corner.

00:09:11.040 --> 00:09:14.090
It's not perfect, but if I was like desperately trying

00:09:14.090 --> 00:09:18.023
to capture something and I was in a situation where I'm kind of all over the place,

00:09:20.060 --> 00:09:23.480
this is a lot less jitter than I'd normally be stuck with.

00:09:23.480 --> 00:09:27.870
Not perfect. I guess the only thing left to say then is it has IP68 water resistance,

00:09:27.870 --> 00:09:31.880
so it's supposed to stay under, I think a meter and a half of water for half an hour,

00:09:31.880 --> 00:09:37.410
which is pretty darn good. This is a fine, fine looking

00:09:37.410 --> 00:09:42.170
and feeling device, man. So we'll probably have a link to it in the video description

00:09:42.170 --> 00:09:45.870
and you guys can go check out more details if you're into it, make sure you subscribe to ShortCircuit

00:09:45.870 --> 00:09:49.963
so you don't miss more of these initial impressions. Okay, so it's dirty, right?

00:09:52.010 --> 00:09:55.933
Oh, yeah. Perfection again.
