Oppo returns with another flagship phone with telephoto accessories and impressive specs. The Find X10 Pro Max is launching across Europe, Asia and other territories, supplanting last year's Find X9 Pro and sitting below the Find X9 Ultra.

Oppo isn't breaking much new ground this year with its upper-midrange Find X10 series. Those changes include some minor design tweaks. Aside from a standalone color sensor and flash positioned next to the camera unit, it looks like another Find X series 'pro' phone. The company seems to have kept the Find X10 design separate from last year's Ultra and Find N6 foldable with its circular camera design. A slender orange accent outlines the camera array, the latest nod to Oppo's collaboration with Hasselblad.
