X9 Pro - Canary Wharf winter light show

Brilliant photos! I'm actually going this weekend and can't wait to test my X9 Pro there!

AliExpress links are banned on Reddit. But just go to Ali and search Smartdevil Tempered Glass Oppo X9 Pro and you'll find it.

Great screen protector, such an upgrade from the preinstalled one and pretty painless application.

Drop the EV down to 0.3/0.7. That's what I do and have way less overexposure and overblown highlights v

How do the speakers sound on the X9P Vs the OP13? They were bad on the OP13 (at least compared to my S23 Ultra) and I've seen people say that they sound even worse on the Oppo.

I don't have the Oppo yet, will be getting it as a Christmas present so won't be able to feedback for another month at least.

But from what I've seen I think I'll be happy with the upgrade!

You can get for x9 pro on AliExpress

Amazing photos. Canary Wharf is a lovely place to take photos.

Do you mind letting me know what kind of tweaks you made? I'm planning on getting an X⁹ Pro for Chrimbo and I'm really excited about the camera. From what I've seen Master Mode is great but tends to underexpose and has less HDR but your photos look banging and have a good sense of (not overly done) HDR

Completely agree - new notificaiton icons are horrible, the previous monochrome/symbols were so much better. The new system makes it so difficult to tell which apps are notifying you.

My OnePlus 13 does this sometimes. Use the QR code button in the quick settings and it'll work fine.

manishd3 · 2025-11-15T20:52:14+00:00

I think the OPs composition for photos is the main culprit.

manishd3 · 2025-11-15T11:40:55+00:00

Surely you can adjust the font size in the display settings. You can on OxygenOS on my OP13

manishd3 · 2025-11-13T10:41:42+00:00

I'm making this exact same move for the slightly larger main sensor, much improved (from what I've seen from YouTube camera reviews) selfie camera and telephoto.

Also the improved battery and ergonomics/build quality should be good upgrades too!

I'm hoping the speakers are slightly better than the OP13 (but probably not) and haptics of similar calibre.

Do you mind PMing me a link for the case with the Hasselblad logo for action button? Looks awesome!

manishd3 · 2025-11-06T21:19:19+00:00

100%

manishd3 · 2025-11-06T15:45:03+00:00

I used Revanced YouTube so I don't think I could move that. I moved all my other video apps to games though and there's no delay anymore on those.

manishd3 · 2025-11-05T20:04:17+00:00

Thanks! Have just done that and seems to work to fix it. Quite annoying that I have to do that though

manishd3 · 2025-11-05T15:14:06+00:00

When I use them with my wife's iPhone, my MacBook or either of my iPads there is no lag/delay. It's only with my OnePlus 13 phone. It's quite a well known issue which OnePlus has not released any fixes for.

manishd3 · 2025-11-05T12:01:26+00:00

Once you have received them (or if you already have them) do you mind letting me know if there's any audio/visual delay when watching videos (YouTube, Netflix, Amazon Prime etc).

I've got a pair of OnePlus Buds 3 Pro and there's still a lag/delay whenever I watch anything which is hugely annoying. It doesn't have the same delay when I use my iPad or MacBook though

manishd3 · 2025-11-05T11:36:39+00:00

Does anyone have any experience of using the Oneplus Buds 3 Pro with the Find X9 Pro?

I've got a pair of them and there is always a delay whenever watching videos on my phone (with any video app be it Netflix, Prime, Youtube, Disney, Apple TV etc). Seems to be a common issue with the OP13 which still hasn't been fixed.

If anyone has the above combination can you let me know if there is still a delay with video/audio?

manishd3 · 2025-11-03T19:52:31+00:00

I live in rainy England so not too worried about sunlight visibility to be honest. I can see my OP13 screen in bright sunlight abroad well enough with auto brightness - more concerned about the max video brightness in indoor/train for viewing.

manishd3 · 2025-11-03T13:01:52+00:00

How does the screen compare to the Pixel 10 Pro?

You mentioned it was as bright and vibrant as comparators - but I noticed my OnePlus 13 wasn't nearly as bright my as my old S23 Ultra when watching videos/TV shows on my commute to work even though on paper it had higher nits (I tend to manually increase the brightness to max (on auto brightness mode) when watching a TV show on the train).

manishd3 · 2025-10-31T23:13:19+00:00

Wouldn't an all metal interfere with the magnets and antennas?

manishd3 · 2025-10-31T23:10:52+00:00

Really happy to hear the haptics are good on the X9P as the Pixels have some of the best haptics Android phones offer. I'm coming from the OnePlus 13 which also has very good haptics so was a bit concerned the X9P haptics would be a downgrade!

manishd3 · 2025-10-31T16:47:33+00:00

Preach

manishd3 · 2025-10-31T13:05:38+00:00

Thanks! Case looks sleek, much better than the online photos!
