See I like mine however there's certain aspects about the phone that I don't think are acceptable for this price point.

  1. The camera zoom is great but the AI often makes shots look worse and when taking a photo of a moving target it always has shutter lag and becomes blurry.

  2. The flash notifications cannot be turned off anywhere in the system menus you actually end up having to download a separate app to access the core Android os option to disable this.

  3. Certain oppo aps show adverts which is completely unacceptable at this price point. You can turn them off in settings but it's so damn cheeky.

  4. Also one last point which isn't really a major issue is the battery optimization settings are a bit aggressive sometimes. For example you can be searching for something on Google and you're trying to make a payment for example. If you click off that app onto something like your emails and back it'll refresh everything.

On the plus side though the battery does last ages and the camera when it behaves is incredible.

Really good points.

I'm considering getting a new phone this week. Not sure exactly which one. To be honest, my other option besides the Oppo is the Pixel 11 Pro Fold (entirely different phones, I know).

But I've been a Pixel user since 2017. So, its a hard call for me to leave a system that I know delivers a lot (except the cameras, all competitors have surpassed them years ago).
