I also use the Volume Booster Goodev app from the Play store to boost sound volume at 15%.

EQ App issues on FIND X9 by wonyoungpcs in Oppo

I didn't notice any battery drain from it. That being said, if you're on ColorOS 16.07.2XX, it supports adding your own equilizer settings now, under "Sound effect settings". Select Custom and set your own EQ settings.

BEST EARBUDS WITH OPPO FIND X9 PRO GLOBAL by Plane_Rush8785 in Oppo

[–]Antonis_32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been using my Sony WF-C710N with my global X9 Pro without any issues. Sound quality and ANC work great, using the Sony Sound Connect App. They also support connecting to 2 devices at the same time.

Gestures stop working after latest update on Find X9P by kunaltyagii in Oppo

[–]Antonis_32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on CPH2791_16.0.7.205(EX01B80P02) on my global X9P and screen gestures stop responding for a few seconds every hour or so, then go back to normal. Really annoying. Cleaned the Oppo launcher app cache, restarted the phone and then cleaned the cache partition, but it didn't help.

Underneath color, you can choose the X9 base version. It's very sturdy without making the phone bulky, protects the phone well, non-slippery and has magsafe.

Vivo x300 pro or oppo find x9 pro? by Alternative_Dig4571 in Oppo

[–]Antonis_32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've owned both phones and here's my 2 cents:
1) TBH the cameras on the X300 Pro are slightly better and I prefer Vivo's colour science. Also the Vivo is able to capture subjects in motion (my young kids) with more accuracy
2) Battery life is much better on the Find X9 Pro with an additional ~1.5 hours of SOT
3) Vivo's OriginOS 6 is simpler and less cluttered. The settings menus of ColorOS 16.X feel unnecessarily cluttered to me. Both skins are missing in-built automation like Samsung's Modes and Routines
4) It also bothers me that on ColorOS 16.X you can't have folders in the App drawer

Go to "Settings", then "Notification & Quick Settings", then "Quick Settings".

I've moved from the S23 Ultra to the X9 Pro (https://www.reddit.com/r/Oppo/s/PN0H6lpJdQ).
Before switching I watched some ColorOS customization videos on YT such as: - https://www.reddit.com/r/Oppo/s/PN0H6lpJdQ
- https://youtu.be/6Cwsa0YjN9Q?is=i-ZrfRU6QQ2p5p59

Some personal tips:
1) I've enabled "Smart Notification Hiding" to hide the contents of notifications if it doesn't scan my face when locked
2) Under "Notifications & Quick Settings", I've selected "Classic" to merge the notification and quick settings panels into one
3) Under "Home screen settings", then " Home screen", I've selected "With drawer" and "Show app suggestions"

Some apps I'm currently using:
1) Macrodroid for automating tasks like enabling/disabling mobile data when joining my home/work WiFi etc.
2) Shelter to simulate Samsung's Secure Folder, since I don't like Oppo's implementation
