According to a Dealabs report, OPPO's upcoming Find X10 and Find X10 Pro Max will launch in Europe at €1,499 and €1,799 respectively, with the devices expected on October 21. That marks a roughly €500 jump from last year's Find X9 at the same 12GB/512GB tier, and the European models reportedly get smaller 7,150mAh batteries and no 16GB RAM option compared to their Chinese counterparts.
OPPO has launched the Find X10 Pro Max in China, becoming the first smartphone to pack three separate 200MP camera sensors—a main, ultrawide, and periscope telephoto lens, all with Hasselblad tuning. The phone runs on MediaTek's new Dimensity 9600 Pro chip and houses an 8,000mAh silicon-carbon battery with 80W wired and 50W wireless charging. Pre-orders are open in China now, with a global release planned later in 2026.
Vivo has launched its X500 series in China, led by the new X500 Pro Max flagship, which uses Sony's Lytia L910 sensor with LOFIC technology to claim 17 stops of dynamic range. The Pro and Pro Max models also debut MediaTek's Dimensity 9600 Pro chip, enabling 4K 240fps slow-motion capture, 10-bit Log recording, and new cinematic styles, while the base X500 uses the 9600M variant.
MediaTek unveiled the Dimensity 9600 Pro, built on TSMC's 2nm process, alongside the 3nm Dimensity 9600M for a broader range of premium phones. The Pro chip features a dedicated neural processing unit for on-device generative AI and boosts prompt processing speed by 51% over its predecessor. MediaTek did not name partner manufacturers or give launch dates for devices using the chips.
MediaTek announced its Dimensity 9600 Pro and 9600M mobile processors, both built to handle demanding gaming and on-device AI tasks. The Pro variant is MediaTek's first chip built on TSMC's 2-nanometer process, promising better efficiency and performance than last year's Dimensity 9500, while the 9600M offers similar AI and gaming capabilities as a more affordable option. Both chips can reportedly sustain console-quality gaming at 185 frames per second.
