Coming to the camera test, DXOMARK said it took photos and videos in different environments such as outdoors, lowlight, and indoors along with portraits of people. Overall, the phone is recommended for capturing landscapes and portraits as it manages to grab a lot of natural light in all lighting conditions.

The OPPO Find X6 Pro‘s large image sensors are also said to prove beneficial for “excellent texture and noise results in photo, zoom, bokeh, and video”.

Lowlight photography is usually the toughest when it comes to smartphone cameras but the OPPO Find X6 Pro gave a good performance. The photos had a lot of image information and detail, and the colour rendering was also well managed, according to the results.

The smartphone’s night mode also proved to be better than its competitors as it captured better detail on faces.

When it comes to videography, the OPPO Find X6 Pro was compared to the top dog Apple iPhone 14 Pro.
Although it didn’t beat the iPhone, it still produced impressive results especially in low-light conditions.
The OPPO Find X6 Pro can shoot up to 4K videos at 60fps, and it uses an SDR-8-bit video format.

Portraits are also an important factor for smartphone cameras and in this category, the OPPO Find X6 Pro scored 144. As explained by DXOMARK, the photos captured excellent sharpness in portrait scenes, good bokeh rendering, and accurate focus even in low light conditions.

Although a top scorer, the OPPO Find X6 Pro also has some negatives to its cameras. These include lack of contrast in backlit portrait photos, exposure instabilities, shallow depth of field, unnatural skin tones, and dynamic range differences between capture and preview image.

FAQ’s on Oppo Find X6 Pro

1) What did Oppo Find X6 Pro Camera test reveal ?

Ans) The Oppo Find X6 Pro is the new No. 1 in the DXOMARK Camera ranking for smartphones, thanks to an outstanding overall performance and massive improvements over its predecessor, making it an excellent option for photographers who want to capture landscapes and portraits with lots of natural detail in all light conditions.

The latest Oppo flagship uses large image sensors across all camera modules, which contributes to excellent texture and noise results in photo, zoom, bokeh, and video. In our tests, fine detail was preserved impressively well, and noise levels were kept very low, making the Find X6 Pro the best smartphone to date in terms of texture/noise trade-off.
This remained true even in low light, earning the Oppo the top score for low-light performance.

The outstanding texture and noise results in dim conditions, in addition to the accurate target exposure and nice colors, mean the Oppo Find X6 Pro is the currently best option for smartphone photography in challenging low-light conditions.

The Find X6 Pro also did very well in Zoom. Like its predecessors, the new Oppo flagship uses a fairly short focal length on the tele camera module (65mm equivalent) and provides an ultra-wide module with a 15mm equivalent focal length.

The large sensors in these modules are capable of collecting a lot of photons and therefore image information.

This means fine detail is preserved nicely not only when shooting with the primary module, but at all zoom factors from 0.6x to 3.5x, across all light conditions.

Also, very few deformation artifacts are visible thanks to their focal length choices. In our tests, the Oppo also delivered very nice bokeh images, with excellent sharpness and accurate bokeh segmentation.

Given the Find X6 Pro’s impressive results in the test protocol, we compared it with other top flagship phones in the  DXOMARK database.

Because it is one of the few devices featuring a large 1-inch sensor, it made sense to use the  Vivo X90 Pro+ and Xiaomi 13 Pro, which also have large sensors, to challenge Oppo’s performances in texture/noise trade-off and low light, and to show how well the sensors’ capacities are used.

When evaluating zoom quality, the  Oppo Find X6 Pro’s main competitor is the Honor Magic5 Pro as both devices manage to provide consistent performances in all conditions from super-wide to medium range.

It also allows to compare HDR-processing quality and shutter speed, two aspects that are key to image quality and in which the Honor Magic5 Pro shows outstanding results.
Focus comparisons are also made with the Huawei Mate 50 Pro, whose variable aperture technology adapts the depth of field to image content.

In video, the Find X6 Pro is compared with the  Apple iPhone 14 Pro, which is still ranked No.1 in video.

Both phones have different video technologies, with  Apple using an HDR-10-bit visualization format and  Oppo  remaining safely with an SDR-8-bit video format.

Despite these vastly different formats, it was interesting to see how the Find X6 Pro pushed the limits of its video technology to be able to provide a top texture/noise compromise and an impressive performance in low-light conditions that nearly matched the iPhone 14 Pro’s performance.

2) What are the Key camera specifications of Oppo Find X6 Pro ?

Ans) * Primary:  50MP 1″sensor, 23mm equivalent f/1.8-aperture lens, OIS
* Ultra-wide: 50MP 1/1.56″sensor, 15mm equivalent f/2.2-aperture lens
* Tele: 50MP 1/1.56″ sensor, 65mm equivalent f/2.6-aperture lens
* Video: up to 4K resolution at 60fps (4K/30fps tested)
