Xiaomi unveiled the 2026 model of its Xiaomi SU7 electric sedan last month in China, and now the company is taking an unusual approach to show it off.

According to its official Weibo account, Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun will host a live teardown of the SU7 on April 2, from 7 PM to midnight. Here, instead of just talking about the car, the CEO will disassemble the car piece by piece on camera. 

And yes, this includes everything from exterior color finishes and interior components to more complex areas like the chassis, safety systems, and battery pack. Experts are likely to join the stream to explain what’s being shown, so this won’t just be a visual teardown.

Xiaomi just started delivering the new SU7

The company officially began deliveries of the new-generation model on March 23. Since then, Xiaomi says it has already delivered over 7,000 units of the updated SU7.

The new model has a longer range (up to 902 km in the Pro version), standardized LiDAR for enhanced intelligent driving, an improved “Dragon Chassis,” and a revised exterior design with new color options.

Lei Jun previously said Xiaomi started preparing for mass production about two months ahead of schedule. The goal, at least as described, is to shorten the gap between order and delivery. Buyers are now expected to receive their cars within one to five weeks.

In terms of scale, Xiaomi Auto reports it delivered more than 20,000 vehicles in March 2026 alone. The figure, as expected, includes the newly updated SU7.

A teardown livestream doesn’t necessarily change how the car performs on the road, but it does offer a different kind of transparency. For a company still relatively new to building cars, showing the internal structure in this way could be an attempt to build confidence.

Alongside the K15 Pro, Oppo also announced the more powerful K15 Pro+ in China. It builds on the same idea but adds a faster processor, a higher refresh rate display, and more aggressive gaming features. Let’s walk through its specs and features here. 

Oppo K15 Pro Plus Specifications 

The Pro+ is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9500s chip, which sits just below MediaTek’s current-best Dimensity 9500 processor. It has a Cortex-X925 core (@3.73GHz), three Cortex-X4 (@3.30GHz), and four Cortex-A720 (@2GHz) cores, and more than 29 billion transistors. 

Compared to the K15 Pro’s optical fingerprint sensor, the K15 Pro Plus features a 3D ultrasonic fingerprint sensor. It also has a bigger battery of 8000mAh with faster 100W charging. 

The biggest visible upgrade is the display, though. The Pro+ uses a 6.78-inch screen with a higher 165Hz refresh rate. Oppo says the device supports native 165fps gameplay in select popular titles, though real-world support will depend heavily on game optimization.

The phone also includes a dedicated touch chip designed to improve sensitivity and reduce latency. Then there’s a new “Lingxi button” that allows users to map controls or shortcuts to different parts of the device.

As for the audio, it features a four-unit coaxial speaker system. 

In terms of design, the Pro Plus is similar to the K15 Pro. Both have a metal frame design along with a cooling fan on the back and an LED light system for notifications. The rear camera also features the same 50MP main with OIS, 8MP ultrawide on the rear, and a 16MP lens on the front. 

Pricing and Availability

The Pro+ comes at a higher price, but still below most flagship phones:

• 12GB + 256GB: 3499 yuan (~$485 USD)
• 12GB + 256GB (higher tier): 3699 yuan (~$515 USD)
• 12GB + 512GB: 4199 yuan (~$585 USD)

As with the standard model, early discounts and subsidies can reduce the price in China.

The post Oppo K15 Pro+ official with 165Hz display, and 8000mAh battery appeared first on Gizmochina.

Oppo has officially announced the new K15 Pro smartphone as part of the K15 Pro series. The phone starts at 2999 yuan (around $415 USD), and comes with a “cyberpunk-inspired” design.

Its color options include Cyber Wing, Light Dust Pink, Origin Gray, and a more unusual “Golden Legend” carbon-style finish. The K15 Pro has a noticeably slim camera module, protruding less than 0.6mm, even while featuring a cooling fan. 

Oppo has also added a “LanYing breathing light” system that can change colors depending on notifications or phone activity. On top of that, the camera module supports magnetic lens caps, which users can swap out for different styles.

Performance and display

At the core of the device is the MediaTek Dimensity 8500 Super chip, paired with Oppo’s own chip-level tuning system called the Tide Engine. This isn’t a flagship processor, but it is capable enough for demanding apps and games.

The phone features a 6.59-inch display with a 144Hz refresh rate. It also features a gamepad-grade gyroscope for more precise motion control in supported titles.

The K15 Pro has a new Swift Cooling Engine that uses airflow ducts and heat dissipation fins, along with what Oppo describes as a triple dustproof design for cooling. The device is rated IP69, and the cooling system can automatically adjust fan speed, keeping noise as low as 19dB at half speed.

As for audio, the K15 Pro uses a stereo dual-speaker setup tuned in collaboration with its Golden Ear Lab and the Xinghai Conservatory of Music.

On the camera side, the phone includes a 50MP main sensor with optical image stabilization, along with an 8MP ultra-wide camera. 

The device runs ColorOS 16 and features a 7500mAh battery with 80W charging support. 

Pricing and Availability

The Oppo K15 Pro starts at 2,999 yuan in China for the 12/256GB variant. Here’s the pricing breakdown for all variants:

• 12GB + 256GB: 2999 yuan (~$415 USD)
• 12GB + 256GB (higher tier): 3199 yuan (~$445 USD)
• 12GB + 512GB: 3499 yuan (~$485 USD)

There are also early sale discounts and subsidies in China that bring the effective price lower, but those won’t necessarily apply globally.

Just as rumors begin to swirl around Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6, a new leak from tipster Digital Chat Station is shedding light on what MediaTek has in store next.

According to recent reports, the Dimensity 9600 will be built on TSMC’s 2nm N2P process. But the more interesting shift could be in its CPU design. The chip is rumored to adopt a new 2+3+3 layout, two “prime” cores paired with six high-performance cores.

If true, this would be the first time MediaTek’s Dimensity 9 series will move to a dual prime-core configuration. For context, Dimensity 9500 has one ARM C1-Ultra (4.21GHz) for peak performance, three ARM C1-Premium (3.5GHz) for sustained power, and four ARM C1-Pro (2.7GHz) for efficiency. 

Digital Chat Station says the dual prime-core setup in Dimensity 9600 is internally referred to as “Canyon.”

Even its competitor has a similar setup

On paper, this setup should make the Dimensity 9600 better equipped to handle demanding workloads, especially as AI tasks continue to grow more complex. Paired with the new process node, the chip is expected to deliver a noticeable jump over its predecessor.

As for graphics, the Dimensity 9600 is said to include a new GPU with neural network shader technology that should improve coordination between the GPU and NPU. Better collaboration between these components could reduce power draw while maintaining smoother performance.

Meanwhile, its competition isn’t standing still. The Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 is also rumored to adopt a similar 2+3+3 CPU layout. Not to forget, Qualcomm’s solution relies on its in-house Oryon cores, while the Dimensity 9600 will feature ARM’s upcoming Cortex-C2 series cores. 

This sets up a familiar situation where both companies are chasing similar architectural goals, even if their execution differs.

Oppo is yet to complete the Find X9 series — the Find X9s Pro and Find X9 Ultra are set to launch on April 21. But if you’ve been following us, early details of the Find X10 lineup have already started to surface in the rumor mill.

And while there’s little doubt that the first devices in the Find X10 series will launch later this year, an Oppo official has confirmed that there won’t be an Oppo Find X10 Ultra in 2026.

Zhuo Shijie, who heads Oppo’s Find series products, stated plainly that the Oppo Find X10 Ultra isn’t coming in 2026. “I can tell you with certainty that the Find X10 Ultra will not be launched this year. Please stop believing the rumors,” he said on the Chinese social media platform Weibo.

Meanwhile, the current focus is on the Find X9 Ultra. Oppo says this device is like “putting a Hasselblad in your pocket,” which means it’s all about the camera. Its headline feature is a new optical system built around a five-reflection prism, enabling an equivalent focal length of 460mm. This translates to native 10x optical zoom, 20x optical-quality zoom, and up to 120x digital zoom. It’s a 50MP periscope lens.

Oppo Find X9 Ultra specifications (rumored)

The rest of the camera system is also packed. It has a 200-megapixel main sensor, a 50-megapixel ultra-wide lens, and a 200-megapixel 3x periscope telephoto camera for portraits. For selfies, it may include a 50-megapixel front-facing camera.

Beyond the camera, the Find X9 Ultra is said to feature a 6.82-inch flat OLED display with 2K resolution, similar to its predecessor.

Internally, the phone is expected to run on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, paired with ColorOS 16 based on Android 16. The battery capacity is rumored to be around 7,050mAh, which is larger than the 6100mAh battery of Find X8 Ultra. Charging support may include 80W wired and 50W wireless speeds.

The post There won’t be Oppo Find X10 Ultra in 2026 appeared first on Gizmochina.

Oppo has just announced the global launch date for the Oppo Find X9 Ultra. But in the rumor mill, attention has already shifted a generation ahead to the Oppo Find X10 series. And if you’ve been following along, the Find X10 Pro Max is expected to feature an ambitious camera setup.

According to an earlier report, the device could use 200MP sensors across its wide, ultrawide, and telephoto cameras. Tipster Digital Chat Station has now added more details on the topic.

Oppo Find X10 Pro Max could feature a 50MP ultrawide camera

The latest leak suggests that both the main and telephoto cameras may use a 1/1.3-inch sensor, while the ultrawide could come in slightly smaller at 1/1.5-inch. However, the tipster also notes that Oppo may fall back to a 50MP ultrawide sensor instead. These two configurations are reportedly undergoing A/B testing.

For context, the Find X9 Pro features a 50MP ultrawide and a 50MP main camera, alongside a 200MP periscope telephoto lens.

As for the 1/1.3-inch main and telephoto sensors, the same tipster previously claimed they would support technologies such as 4×4 RMSC (Rearranged Pixel Color Information) and UFCC (Ultra Full Color Capture). 

Both are expected to improve color accuracy and dynamic range. The sensors are also rumored to use an advanced manufacturing process to enhance overall image quality, likely for the main camera.

Beyond the cameras, the Find X10 lineup is expected to be among the first devices powered by the upcoming MediaTek Dimensity 9600 chip.

None of these details has been officially confirmed by Oppo yet. Still, the leaks suggest the company may be experimenting with an unusually stacked camera system for its next flagship series. We’ll keep you posted as more information comes to light.

The post Oppo Find X10 Pro Max could drop its ultrawide from 200MP to 50MP appeared first on Gizmochina.

Oppo is reportedly working on two flagship-grade tablets. Alongside the expected flagship-tier Oppo Pad 5 Pro, the company is also preparing a smaller model, the Oppo Pad Mini.

The device was recently teased by Qiao Jiadong, Oppo’s Director of Smart Ecosystem Products, in a short video shared on Douyin. While the teaser didn’t dive into specifics, it confirmed the Pad Mini is a thin and light tablet that doesn’t entirely compromise on performance.

Now, ahead of what’s expected to be an April launch, more details have surfaced thanks to well-known tipster Digital Chat Station on Weibo.

Oppo Pad Mini Specifications

According to the leak, the Oppo Pad Mini will feature an 8.8-inch OLED display with ultra-narrow bezels on all four sides. 

The design, at least based on early visuals, seems to follow Oppo’s recent aesthetic. There’s an ultra-thin unibody metal build paired with a minimalist, pill-shaped rear camera module that protrudes slightly. Color options reportedly include dark gray, purple, and cyan. 

The video shared by DCS shows the device in the purple shade. 

Internally, the tablet is said to run on the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset, paired with up to 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage. There’s also mention of 67W fast charging support, though battery capacity hasn’t been specified yet.

Oppo is expected to hold a launch event in April in China to unveil the Find X9 Ultra and Find X9s Pro smartphones. Likely, the Oppo Pad Mini and Pad 5 Pro may go official at the same event.

According to previous reports, OnePlus is working on the OnePlus Pad 3 Pro and Pad Mini tablets. These devices are expected to be rebranded versions of Oppo’s Pad 5 Pro and Pad Mini, respectively.
