China-based OPPO has launched the Find X2 series in Malaysia today – the latest upgrade to its flagship model – and marking its foray into the premium category. For some time now, OPPO has worked behind the scenes to accumulate some of the industry’s most advanced technology and features, and translated its newly-acquired technological prowess onto the Find X2 Pro 5G and Find X2 5G, which are devices that support 5G connectivity.
The Find X2 series, featuring OPPO’s cutting-edge technologies, will be available in 31 countries and regions worldwide.
Garry Gong, CEO of OPPO Malaysia said: “Innovation is key to our growth and the cornerstone to establishing ourselves as one of the leading mobile phone companies within Malaysia, so we endeavour to continue to showcase our capabilities, through advanced camera systems, high-quality visual experience and powerful user performance, just to mention a few, with our existing range of devices and future ones too. Besides that, Malaysia and 5G technology will soon go hand-in-hand, which is what motivated us to introduce to the market our range of premium 5G devices in the form of the Find X2 series.”
As of 2019, OPPO is ranked 2nd within the top 5 smartphone vendors within Malaysia, taking up 18% of the local unit share, as reported by Canalys. The brand has successfully achieved an impressive 21% positive year-on-year growth. Since the introduction of the Reno series, OPPO has been continuously expanding and diversifying their offerings, producing different models that cater to different segments within the consumer market, each featuring a distinct technological focus to complement the user’s everyday needs.
On 16 December last year, OPPO also announced its APAC 5G Landing Project, which involved partnerships with local carriers such as Celcom, Digi, Maxis and U Mobile. With Malaysia being OPPO’s APAC Hub Centre, there is undoubtedly more to come in terms of commercialisation of 5G within the region. The launch of the OPPO Find X2 series is just the start for OPPO to bring in cutting-edge 5G experiences to users in Malaysia.
Nikki Chen, Branding Director of OPPO Malaysia added: “The OPPO Find X series is truly one of the most modern and top-notch smartphones available in the market, and through this upgrade, the new Find X2 Pro 5G aims to provide ‘the ultimate experience’ for its users, with the combination of advanced technological features boasting super-fast internet and charging speed as well as quality camera and visual experiences.”
Flagship Find X2 series delivers premium experiences to fulfill high-end demands
As the latest offering in OPPO’s innovative product and technology portfolio, the Find X2 series ships with OPPO’s top-notch 120Hz Ultra Vision Screen that sports QHD+ resolution, 120Hz ultra high refresh rate and 240Hz touch sampling rate, allowing users to enjoy the ultimate display experience with enhanced smoothness. Among the firsts to be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 mobile platform, the Find X2 series supports dual-mode 5G and features OPPO’s Smart 5G performance optimization solution, which improves the overall 5G performance. Furthermore, it also supports 65W SuperVOOC 2.0, the fastest charging technology commercially available in the industry, enabling users to enjoy superior charging experience in the 5G era.
In addition to that, the Find X2 Pro is equipped with OPPO’s the most powerful and versatile Ultra Vision Camera System, with a combination of 48MP wide-angle lens, 48MP ultra-wide-angle camera, and 13MP periscope telephoto camera, providing a fully upgraded imaging experience. Based on the customized IMX689 sensor, Find X2 Pro also provides the industry’s most advanced All Pixel Omni-Directional PDAF technology, which can achieve 100% pixel focusing. The Find X2 Pro is also the first mobile phone to support 12-bit photo capturing.
Expanding the 5G Ecosystem with Advanced Technology
Consumers in the high-end market are expecting tech companies to serve their growing demands in integrated product experiences. OPPO has been more than just a phone maker from the outset. From its early beginnings, the brand has produced a wide range of products from audio systems to Blu-Ray players. Now, with smartphones as the core portal, OPPO is continuously exploring and building an ecosystem of multiple devices and technologies.
As a pioneer and implementer of 5G, OPPO has been proactively promoting the commercial rollout of 5G in several aspects, including 5G standard patent development, technology research and development, use cases developments, and industry collaborations. OPPO currently works with more than 30 global carriers in the world in 5G and has already brought its 5G products to more than 10 countries and regions worldwide.
In the era of intelligent connectivity, OPPO plans to spend USD $7 billion in three years in creating more great products and developing frontier technologies. By continuing to expand into different product categories, continuous efforts in brand building and collaboration with top industry partners, OPPO are tackling the global high-end markets bringing the best products and services to more users in the world.

My Oppo Find X2 Pro gold colour badge was faded and discoloured in just 8 days. I bought it on 30th May 2020 in The Gardens Mall, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. So disappointed. I will return to Samsung in the future. First time Oppo user but also the last time.
