This year, telephoto has become the main direction of major mobile phone manufacturers, and many flagship models are equipped with periscope telephoto. The Oppo Find X7 Ultra, Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, and Xiaomi Mi 14 Ultra all feature dual telephoto designs, and although each has different solutions, they all demonstrate the best of their respective brands in terms of imaging, providing users with a clear shooting experience from near and far.

Let's take a look at the samples taken at 30X zoom, and it's clear that the Oppo Find X7 Ultra does a really good job, with the details of the drawstring clearly visible, the wool around the edges, and the air vents in the tote bag are clearly restored, showing a very high level of resolution, which makes the overall image look very textured. The Samsung S24 Ultra's samples are relatively light in terms of color, with a slight gap from what you actually see, and sharpness is slightly lacking. The Xiaomi Mi 14 Ultra, on the other hand, strikes a balance between the two, with flagship-level clarity but a stronger visual impact with its rich colors.

If you zoom in on the details, the Oppo Find X7 Ultra still retains good resolution, with accurate color reproduction, and the imaging results are quite positive. In contrast, the other two devices have decent sharpness, but the overall look is average.

Dual telephoto lenses not only make telephoto a breeze, but also show great potential for close-up portraits. Let's take this set of 3X portrait samples as an example, shooting in indoor low-light environments requires a very high level of the phone's image capabilities, and the slightest mistake may lead to all kinds of strange photos. However, in terms of actual shooting results, the Oppo Find X7 Ultra, Xiaomi Mi 14 Ultra, and Samsung S24 Ultra all perform very well, and the image quality is up to flagship.
However, in terms of detail, the Oppo Find X7 Ultra has a more natural and accurate restoration of light and color temperature thanks to Hasselblad's natural color technology and support for large Andean models. The Samsung S24 Ultra's picture is bluish and white, making the person's face lose its due blood, while the Xiaomi Mi 14 Ultra's overall picture is darker, and there is still room for further improvement in the details of clothing and the skin tone of the character's face, especially the color reproduction of the lips.

The Oppo Find X7 Ultra does particularly well when zooming in on detail. Subtle details such as hair, hair, and eyebrows are more clearly rendered, maintaining a more complete and pristine texture, while also doing a very good job of noise control. In contrast, the Xiaomi Mi 14 Ultra and the Samsung S24 Ultra show varying degrees of smearing, which impairs detail.
