The Oppo Find X8s Plus makes its debut in South Africa as an absolute powerhouse, refining the flagship experience with a larger display, expanded battery capacity, and elite performance capabilities. It is tailor-made for power users, mobile gamers, and mobile photographers who demand a true big-screen flagship experience.
Starting at ZAR 18,000, the Oppo Find X8s Plus positions itself at the higher end of the premium segment, offering a compelling alternative to ultra-premium tier smartphones. Because pricing is subject to localized market shifts, exact retail pricing can vary depending on regional store promotions, your province, or whether you choose an outright cash purchase versus a specialized monthly cellular plan.
The device is widely accessible across South Africa through major premium electronics retailers, department stores, and mobile network channels:
Retail & Online Storefronts: You can secure the device via cash or premium store accounts at Takealot, HiFi Corp, Foschini, Cellucity, 4U, Makro, Mr Price, Hi Online, Game, PEP, and Ackermans.
Mobile Network Channels: For premium contract upgrades, executive business lines, or comprehensive data packages, the phone is available directly through MTN and Chatz Connect.
The “Plus” designation brings noticeable upgrades to screen real estate, battery resilience, and professional-tier creator tools.
The front of the Find X8s Plus is dominated by a massive, quad-curved 6.82-inch LTPO AMOLED display featuring a dynamic 120Hz refresh rate. The advanced LTPO backplane allows the display to automatically throttle down to 1Hz when reading static content to preserve battery, ramping up to full speed instantly for fluid gaming and scrolling. With industry-leading peak brightness and Dolby Vision support, media consumption is thoroughly cinematic even under intense midday South African sunlight.
Photography is handled by a sophisticated multi-camera matrix engineered in partnership with Hasselblad. The system is anchored by a large 50MP primary sensor utilizing a massive lens element to capture incredible detail in low-light environments. This is supported by an upgraded periscope telephoto lens for pristine, lossless optical zoom over long distances, and a wide-angle macro shooter. Backed by Hasselblad’s iconic color science and multi-axis Optical Image Stabilization (OIS), it delivers professional-grade video and photography out of the box.
Under the hood, the Find X8s Plus runs on a top-tier flagship processor paired with massive, ultra-fast RAM allocations and high-speed internal storage. It handles demanding tasks like 4K video editing, heavy multitasking, and graphic-intensive gaming without breaking a sweat. To maintain peak performance over long periods, Oppo integrates a massive, custom-engineered vapor-chamber liquid cooling system that effectively dissipates heat away from the core components.
To sustain its large display and high-performance hardware, the device houses an expanded, high-density battery integrated with smart health preservation software. The phone supports ultra-fast wired SUPERVOOC flash charging alongside advanced high-speed wireless charging, allowing you to top up the massive cells in just a matter of minutes. Additionally, the device features a premium IP68 water and dust resistance rating, ensuring complete peace of mind against accidental submersions and sudden rainstorms.
