In brief
- An experienced leaker has posted images showing the next generation of flagship phones from Chinese manufacturers.
- Let’s first take a look at the alleged designs of the OPPO Find X8 Ultra and vivo X200 series.
- We also take a look at possible Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 phones from Redmi, OnePlus, Iqoo and Realme.
We’re in the second half of the year and we’ve already seen plenty of leaks about next-gen flagship phones. Now, a long-time leaker has posted images showing what these new-gen phones could look like.
Digital Chat Station has published drawings showing numerous upcoming flagship phones from various Chinese manufacturers. First off, the informant posted images of what appears to be the OPPO Find X8 Ultra and vivo X200 series.
The Hasselblad logo and the alert slider suggest that we are indeed dealing with the Find X8 Ultra. The logo in the middle of the apparent Vivo phone has the same shape as the ZEISS logo used on Vivo X-series devices.
Digital Chat Station also posted an image showing four upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 flagship phones from different sub-brands. Check out the image below.
The informant didn’t mention any names, but some followers have guessed that these are devices from Redmi, Realme, Iqoo, and OnePlus. Other followers have mixed up Realme and OnePlus, which makes sense since there doesn’t seem to be an alarm slider on the fourth phone. Still, Iqoo also makes sense as a third phone since the brand has a penchant for circular camera housings.
In any case, Qualcomm and MediaTek are expected to launch their next-generation flagship processors in October. Digital Chat Station claimed that various OEMs will launch phones with these chips in October and November. They specifically pointed to the Redmi K80 series, vivo X200 lineup, OPPO Find X8 family, Xiaomi 15 series, Iqoo 13, OnePlus 13, Realme GT7 Pro, and HONOR Magic 7 phones. However, global availability is a different story.
