In particular, EISA awards the OPPO Find X9 Ultra as "Best Photo & Video Smartphone" for 2026 to 2027.

OPPO's Find X9 Ultra raises the bar for smartphone photography with its uncompromising approach. An innovative camera system, developed in collaboration with Hasselblad, offers a 14mm–230mm focal length range for outstanding versatility, while the 230mm telephoto lens opens new creative possibilities for mobile photography–adding the optional teleconverter extends focal length to an exceptional 300mm. Thanks to this flexibility, plus intelligent shooting and image processing technologies, OPPO's flagship model is a competitor to super-zoom cameras. For photographers seeking the ultimate range, image quality and creative freedom in a smartphone, this is the place to look.

To those who missed it, the Find X9 Ultra packs a 200MP main sensor, 50MP ultra‑wide, 200MP 3x zoom, and 50MP 10x zoom with a quintuple prism periscope—covering focal lengths from 14mm to 460mm plus macro.

OPPO claims it captures up to 890% more light than a rival telephoto, while offering advanced modes like Hasselblad Hi‑Res, RAW MAX, and 8K video with lossless zoom up to 20x.

It also packs all the bells and whistles you’d expect from an “Ultra” flagship in 2026, including a 6.82‑inch 10‑bit LTPO ProXDR 144Hz QHD+ OLED display, the 3nm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 SoC, a 7,025mAh Si‑C battery, and more.

In the Philippines, the OPPO Find X9 Ultra retails for PHP 129,999 (originally PHP 99,990 before the memory shortage price hike).

Other smartphone winners include:

• Xiaomi 17T Pro - EISA Smartphone 2026-2027
• HONOR Magic V6 - EISA Foldable Smartphone 2026-2027
• Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra - EISA AI Smartphone 2026-2027
