Oppo's Find X gets an Australian price

A month after the device's official unveiling, Oppo have announced Australian pricing and availability for their all-screen Find X smartphone.

The new device will be available for purchase locally from tomorrow.

“We’re excited to announce the availability of the OPPO Find X in Australia. The device will be sure to challenge what Aussie consumers think is possible with a smartphone and shows what OPPO is capable of,” said Michael Tran, Managing Director at OPPO Australia.

“OPPO’s relentless efforts in creating smartphones that push the boundaries led to the creation of the Find Series. The Find X continues this trend and has delivered a completely new design to the Australian smartphone market that will resonate with Aussie consumers and challenge the status quo.”

The device will be available exclusively through JB Hi-Fi for a recommended retail price of $1099. This puts it firmly in competition with not only Huawei's P20 Pro but also the HTC U12+, LG G7 and the Nokia 8 Sirocco.

The Oppo Find X features a 6.4-inch curved-display and runs on a Snapdragon 845 processor and 8GB of RAM. Other specs include a 3730mAh battery, 256GB of on-board storage, a 25-megapixel front-facing camera and a dual-lens rear camera (16MP+20MP).

As usual, it'll run on the latest version of the company's ColorOS Android skin and support their proprietary VOOC fast-charging. It's also packing a form of 3D face-scanning akin to that found in the iPhone X, and support for Animoji-inspired 3D Omojis.

OPPO also announced it will be bringing the OPPO Find X Automobili Lamborghini Edition to Australia in a limited run. Further details on the pricing and availability of this product are due to be released a later date.

The Oppo Find X will be available from tomorrow through JB Hi-Fi at a recommended retail price of $1099.
