    Still very expensive.
    This is 16GB+512GB
    After national subsidies, it should be about RMB 4469 = AUD 960

          Hardware same. The rom software might be different.

            @longsighted: You can install the ROM you like, isnt it. It takes a bit effort. I didnt bother change the ROM, it is still good for me. I think the international ROM is just a bit neater than the Chinese ROM, not that significant.

      Why should a phone that's better than what Apple, Samsung and Google put out be dramatically cheaper than it already is? It's a great price.

      And there are no "national subsidies" for phones in Australia.

                @ab c: It's a vivo X200 pro with the same dimensity 9400 and it's with 6hrs SOT.

                Definitely an upgrade from my 4500mah oppo x3 pro which was dying before the end of day with 3hrs SOT.

                    @ab c: Battery is 30% larger and the oppo is around 4 years old now. I think the chip might be more optimised for low power consumption and better power saving features.

  • wintermadness on 18/04/2025 - 02:05

    Great phone. Changed from an S24U mostly for the better cameras, but also surprised how much snappier it is given that the S24U is no slouch. Battery life has been great, and it feels nicer to hold too.

    OneUI 7 is probably a little more well organised with some better design choices, but ColorOS is really solid.

    • matt-ozb on 18/04/2025 - 08:19

      How is the call quality between the two? Are speaker calls louder on the S24U or X8 Pro?

      • wintermadness on 18/04/2025 - 17:41

        S24U seems to get a touch louder and it's a little clearer at max volume

        • matt-ozb on 18/04/2025 - 18:47

          Interesting .. thanks.

    • ruprectaus on 18/04/2025 - 17:01

      Have an S22u but use the spen so much its hard to move away. The upgraded cameras seem appealing though

      That said, does this support esim ? Someone else mentioned it did not ? When I travel I keep my local # on the esim and get a local SIM

      • wintermadness on 18/04/2025 - 17:33

        If you buy the China model esim doesn't work, but local stock (like this JB deal) esim works fine - I'm using it currently.

        I love the spen in theory, and every time I do use it I think "wow that's cool" - but I just never really need it personally

        • ruprectaus on 18/04/2025 - 23:45

          If you buy the China model esim doesn't work, but local stock (like this JB deal) esim works fine - I'm using it currently.

      Also making the X8 Pro available at JB HiFi only

      If JB-Hifi is willing to sell a phone, rest assure that it'll comply with all 3 carriers' network requirements…at least for now & until carriers tweak their network again?

      NON AU-compliance phones: learn anything from the 3G shutdown ?

      Oppo no longer cares about our market

      AU is a small market with specific network requirements (frequencies & trade-secret?). Both hardware & software must be designed to work with all 3 AU-carriers. Likely a SEPARATE / DIFFERENT design & production runs for AU-market. Maybe if ALL 3 carriers design their network to be consistent with US/Europe/Asian models…the cost unit would be lower?

  • BennyHe2018 on 18/04/2025 - 06:32
    +5

    X8 pro is great product wise but its price should be $1499 when it was released initially. Users interested in Oppo would not buy if Samsung has huge discount for preordering.

    RRP $1799 should be RIP. This is way too closed to Apple as well.

      • subwoofer on 18/04/2025 - 09:34

    • Mark365 on 18/04/2025 - 15:27
      +1

      Even if you have the money, you would still not buy it coz you rate the phone or the brand really low hence the complain in pricing. Just admit that you are poor, nothing wrong with that.
      Oppo Vivo Honor Huawei are better built than Samsung or Pixel, debatable against apple.
      Software wise, its up to you how particular you are, coz my Honor and Oppo are smooth.

  • rezmata on 18/04/2025 - 06:51

    Been rocking the Oppo Reno 10x zoom for nearly 6 years now and still going strong. While in no hurry to upgrade, I'm asking myself the N5 fold for more productivity or the x8 ultra for the best cameras…

  • qihu on 18/04/2025 - 07:28

    $1499 is around RMB 6999, with this price you can get x8 ultra (16G +512G) Chinese version, I know it's differnet ROM, but it still has google store , android auto and it upgrade more frequently then international ROM.

    • garvani on 18/04/2025 - 11:48

      X8 ultra isn't a global release, china only, because of this it is missing some important Australian LTE bands - well 28b, without this band the phone is practically useless in australia

      • Kongtc on 18/04/2025 - 11:57

        Hi, can you please elaborate more? I checked that x8 ultra has band 28A. I pre-ordered the Chinese version x8 ultra, so it can't make phone calls in Australia? Thanks in advance 🙏

          +2

          oh no youve already ordered it? If only a preorder id be cancelling it asap. Yeah it has 28a but you also need 28b.
          "In Australia, Band 28B (700 MHz) is a widely used 4G LTE band, especially for wider coverage and indoor penetration. It operates within the 700 MHz spectrum"
          Yeah your wouldn't get service in a lot of places unfortunately with that phone.

            @garvani: Yeah I bought one for my wife just because of the exceptional camera of this x8 ultra…

        • Mark365 on 18/04/2025 - 15:32

          You can still use it, some of the 5g and all the 4g frequencies are still working.
          I remember using a chinese version phone that didnt have 4g band 28, it was a pain. I am not sure how important is band 28b, since majority of usage is 4g anyway in my area. 5g speed is awesome tho.

            +4

            @Mark365: Not anymore, things were different prior to 3g shutdown. The new volte requirement you need b28a and b28b. Without both volte doesnt work, which means no E000, which means uncompatible on network. I thought like you it just wouldn't work in remote areas, but it's far worse than that now. There is one working solution, Vodafone doesn't use 700mhz, but there network is pretty crap

    • wintermadness on 18/04/2025 - 11:50

      WearOS isn't compatible with Chinese ROM. Esim doesn't work. No proper Gemini integration. I've also read of delays in notifications, and only showing a few (3?) notifications in the status bar.

      Probably not deal breakers for some, but the WearOS thing in particular stopped me.

  • HitlersDad on 18/04/2025 - 07:32

          Yes I raised this in another site and got down votes en masse.

          Just because you can buy it doesn't mean it will be compatible in Australia.

          People need to do research and not just blindly buy things.

          The full band 28 overlaps with other uses in Japan, Europe and the UAE.

          In Japan, the lower end of the uplink band of B28 interferes with TV Broadcast.
          So in Japan, only the B28 higher end duplex (B28B) is used.

          In Europe and the UAE, the B20 downlink frequency is 791 – 821 MHz, which partially overlaps with the upper end of B28 So Europe and the UAE only use the lower end of B28 duplex (B28A).

          A B28 device would work in Japan, Europe and the UAE, but can interfere with B20 and TV.
          B28A and B28B devices have filters over portions of the band to prevent interference.

          This means a B28A or B28B device can't see the full band so won't be able to access all three B28 telcos in all parts of Australia. You might get no B28 in the location you are in with the carrier you are on.

      Find X2 Pro is an absolute beast of a thing for its time. Mine still goes strong and I see no reason to upgrade currently other than the decreased battery life due to age, but the SuperVOOC charging sort of negates that anyway. This X8 Pro looks incredible but as you say, I think the X2 Pro will still serve me well for a good couple years still.

    Rocking my Find X5, best phone ive ever hadd!!!! The market need to realise value in non main stream brands honestly. Had a OnePlus before this, and was just as good!

    Waiting for this ones price to drop a little more before I make a jump …

    Got my Find X2 pro from the $596 deal a few years ago, and I've struggled to find a phone that was a worthy upgrade until the Find X8 pro… but the price difference is insane, even with inflation and all that jazz.

    • longsighted on 18/04/2025 - 10:04

      Exactly. Had findx2 pro since 2021. But I pulled the trigger.

    The X8 Ultra looks sweeeet.

    I am seriously considering it because I miss Android so much (and I hate iOS).

      looks sweet but doesnt work in Australia. Don't do it! Its missing band 28b, you wont get cell service in a lot of places

      • giventofly on 18/04/2025 - 12:13

        Damn, that sucks. Thanks for the heads up

          yeah look at the xiaomi 15 ultra for a similar experience, that is global release so no issues here

          • Telios on 18/04/2025 - 14:05

            @garvani: I always hated the extra crap Xiaomi put into the image though…

            Also they never managed to do cameras as well, but maybe that's changed in the last few years.

            My last 2 Xiaomi phones were solid builds and reliable but the clutter and camera made me look elsewhere.

            Edit: well given they are actively advertising a camera handle add-on I'm going to guess they are doing better

    If you can think outside the box of apple and and samsung, Oppo is a great phone.

    God forbid if they release OnePlus in Australia, it would shit so much on apple and samsung.

    But we have been so programmed to only buy apple and Samsung.

  • J Huang on 18/04/2025 - 13:52

    Highly recommend. It is a great phone, great product. Just escaped from the iPhone prison and found it to be a great substitute. It can reach 90% iPhone capability with 50% cheaper price. It is especially bang for the buck if you can get it cheap directly from China.

      90%? so u still think iphone is better?

        I think IOS system has some inherent advantage over Android, like better sync between different system apps. But Apple charges way too much for high storage and high specs of their model.

  • NRGIZE on 18/04/2025 - 14:01

    can you do the same thing like the iPhone 16 post cancel the plan etc hahaha

    • CodeXD on 18/04/2025 - 14:08

      There is no plan with this deal

      • NRGIZE on 18/04/2025 - 15:10

        dam hehe

      • j3rk on 19/04/2025 - 08:26

        Would the latest one in the email, $1200 voucher on 99 plan work?

  • FujinShu on 18/04/2025 - 14:03

    I wonder which new phones are being supported by LineageOS?

    Amazing device, got mine for about 1k via the 24m plan and cancel. Would suggest waiting for that deal to come up again.

    Battery life is amazing. I'll bring it to work at 20% and be fairly confident it'll last. Get home and it'll full charge in 40mins. Understand the lower DPI panel absolutely helped with battery.

    Absolute unit of a package, blitzes through 4bit LLMs.

    • NRGIZE on 18/04/2025 - 15:11

      Hi who did you get the plan through? cheers

    • CodeXD on 18/04/2025 - 16:56

      Amazing device, got mine for about 1k via the 24m plan and cancel

      That would have been a good deal to post!

  • JackMa101 on 18/04/2025 - 14:58

    An amazing phone, highly recommended

  • sol3x on 18/04/2025 - 17:19

    Can any onwers rate the speaker quality? 1 to 10, 10 being the best on par with iPhone 16 pro max?
