[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Vipermuscle83:
I've had both. The 2k screen is definitely better than the 1080p screen, and anyone saying it's "overkill" didn't wanna fork over the extra $$$. The 3GB of RAM is CRUCIAL. Ask anyone that ditched their Note 3 for the GS5 and felt the loss of that 1GB of RAM...when you download your apps to the phone, you will be surprised at the lack of RAM you will have available with certain things running in the background...even when you close out all apps. In most cases, you'll have less than 400MB left on a 2GB version, while you have over 1.3-1.5GB remaining on the 3GB model.

You WILL feel that difference. Don't believe me? You'll see it the most when you keyboard is needed. I've always noticed on any 2GB phone I've had such as the GS5, HTC ONE M8, and 7A that the keyboards lag A LOT! Doesn't matter if you're using a stock keyboard, Swype, Android Keyboard, Swift, you name it...they lag! There is a considerable difference on the phones with 3GB of RAM such as the Note 3, Sony Z2, and the Find 7.

I haven't had a hiccup on my Find 7 yet as far as performance goes. The added resolution does nothing to take away from performance. The cameras seemed identical to me on both the 7 and 7a so no idea where the talk about the camera being better came from.

Like I said, those opposing the Find 7 because of its QHD screen are the same ones that would buy it 10 out of 10 times if they had the patience to wait for it (the 7a did come out over a month before) and/or the extra cash to fork over. If you got the cash, the Find 7 is your phone.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] chana:
Thanks for the insight :)
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] azeem40:
Yeah, even after doing so, it is misinterpreting the scrolls for touches. A few more issues I have with this phone:

I can't perform an OTA. Every time I try to, it fails to update firmware.

Can't flash the OTA zip cuz it keeps failing.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] tropical cactus:
The 0530 update has fixed this issue. Do you mean you can't install update with stock recovery after downloading it?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] azeem40:
Yeah, it keeps failing.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] rowbaggie22:
Just wondering where u r all from and where you got it find 7 or 7a
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] azeem40:
I am from the USA and I got mine from swappa.com.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] znarf2369:
When I recieved my device, I was really happy about it. Nice build quality and so on.. Then, I experienced Color OS. This is along with Touchwiz kind of the worst overlay that I've ever seen.

But at the moment, there are not that much custom roms to switch to from COS. But in the future there will be some very good ones like CM or a very stable PA release, so I have no doubts that this device will get better with time. (:
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] DSTEE:
Got my Oppo Find 7 X9077 today (unaware that it was a chinese model...), so my __big__ con is that I can't use any Google services such as Google Play, Chrome, Facebook app and Snapchat (pretty sure Instagram too) + I'm not sure if I can use 4G because of the different frequencies China and the rest of the world uses (just read about this today), so yeah- I'm not that happy about it as I expected to be. The stupid Chinese version aside:

Very good looking with a nice feel, love the specifications, good camera and absolutely **f a n t a s t i c ***sound, seriously did not expect it to sound that good, _very_ loud and clear phone speakers, sound better than any mini/bluetooth speakers I've heard. I'll even go as far as saying they sound better than my computer speakers and ATH-M50 headphones.

The ColorOS isn't good at all, bad translation and overall nothing impressive. Also the power and sound button is very loose, I can seriously shake the phone and hear it move, which makes me doubt a bit about the build quality even though everything else is perfect.

Currently not that happy about it, but once I get another/updated rom and access to Google that will all change.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] MrColdbird:
Sorry to hear you got the wrong version. Hope you will make the best of it.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] lesscro:
Chineese model is not so accurate for international market, if i remember two variant is needed because it disconnect some frequancy for LTE in her ROM...

Then CPU can be a variant too with specific frequancy for chinee

se country...

i hva an Oppo Find 7a, international version and no trouble with frequancy, snapdragon 801 is unlocked, to yet @ full power but soon when source will released, Dragon will talk fire...

5/19

Phone has yellow tint. Sad day.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] nifear4:
+ Feels great

+ Screen is fantastic

+ Speakers are not that bad as I expected it to be

+ DAT RECHARGE SPEED!

+ DAT CAMERA SHUTTER SPEED!

- the default OS is still buggy but isn't too bad to be a daily driver... so far

- battery drain is killer

- can't play some games

- memory gets eaten like nuts

TL;DR

Phone hardware = GOOD!

COS = NO GOOD
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] peterkef:
Can i ask? What version did you receive?

US Version? Or international?

If you have the international: do you have good LTE connection?

Thank you
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] nifear4:
I got the US version. AT&T is my provider. And I just got throttled cause I hit the 5gb limit for unlimited data users. I'm currently running ColorOS2.0 cause it uses the cover screen thingy.... Image is below.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] peterkef:
Sweet.

And were did you buy it from?

I'm looking to buy one but cant find a US version available.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] nifear4:
I bought it off when I bought my phone from the OPPO site. It was under accessories for the find 7.since the find 7 and 7a dimension are the same. It will do the same stuff theoretically lol. But it's pretty legit.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] peterkef:
Oppo find 7? From what oppo site?

Sorry for asking but I really want one. [emoji12]
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] nifear4:
Believe it was called oppostyle.com
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] peterkef:
Aha, they are out of stock of the US version [emoji25]

Thank you
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] nifear4:
Yeah. They get shipments every two weeks. So I would check next week on Sunday or Monday.

Honestly it's a great phone and I believe it will be useful. If not, you can always go for one plus one.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] peterkef:
trying to get an invite there but .......

This morning they did a contest for 100 invites. They were gone in 5 minutes....
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] bsinc1962:
What charger came with the phone from Oppostyle. In the description it says a two prong uk charger. I realize it's still a micro USB and I have one of those but if I do do you lose fast charge?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] blessingme:
My OPPO FIND 7 PREMIUM arrived today. Great SMARTPHONE. Thanks to Liaow:good:
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] potblack2win:
Great news. Do you have the yellow tint towards the bottom of the screen
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] blessingme:
Great Display :good:

And NO yellow tint!!!
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] azeem40:
No, you don't lose the fast charging, but I don't recommend getting the UK variant in the US.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Birdsfan:
The U S version is back in stock at OPPO style, I bought my 7A Friday.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] peterkef:
Thank you. I saw that and ordered mine too!
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] tornado6:
Got my X9077 yesterday, first impression is, so much bloatware once i boot in :( but overall it's very smooth but gets hot quite fast. Didn't bother with the ColorOS 1.2 and i installed the 2.0 beta and root it, now looking for instruction to install TWRP then flash custom rom once they are available
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] shure2:
Could you give some feedback on the battery life please? Such as screen on time. I know its early days but it would be nice to know a rough amount.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] ahoj79:
Here's my battery usage. Streaming Spotify for maybe 3 hours and pretty heavy usage...

Gets quite hot with regular use? or are you watching/taking videos, etc
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] LiangHLiang:
I did get a find7 (x9007) last month (for my wife) and my find7(x9077) early this month. Both in white, the look are the same, nice and well build, love the design. I upgrade my wife's find7 (x9007) with OS 2.0 beta. works nice, but it get slower after 2 month use. For my Find(X9077) only the OS 1.2, look for a 3rd party rom to try on. I did not find any yellow tint on both devices, but both have issue with a little bit over heat, not that i can not bear, I think it is normal, it is better than my last phone.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] tornado6:
The battery life is quite short IMO, if compared to my M8. Mainly i believe it's due to 2k, but it still last me a day of usage which include web browsing, replying whatsapp and other data related messaging, facebook instagram etc.

im just using it like normal, browsing etc
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] FE3KA:
How much time do get with it? And how much on-screen.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] tornado6:
12hour 48 minutes with 3 hours SOT
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] lesscro:
screen on = 12 hours ?

Did you change battery because it seems you have an awesome life with only 3000mhA...

Do you have some secrets tips ?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] silasje1:
3 hours screen on time he says ;)
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] lesscro:
My bad... i readl like 12 HOURS... damn...:confused:
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] alias3800:
yeah.. 3 hours SOT is not that great, but I suppose the VOCC charging makes up for it?

So you're running the CM11 nightlies on your Find 7 (9077)? Any issues with the QHD screen?

No I'm on 7a. Sorry if i missed that.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] rayQ111:
WILL CM11 nightlies work on your Find 7 international version?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] McBeaker:
First impressions? put very simply, I love it and I'm very happy with my purchase from oppo!

I've been a big HTC fan for years but they lost me with the M8, I wasn't impressed with it at all! I'd never heard of oppo before but saw an article on the Find 7 and I knew I wanted one! and I'm glad I went for it!! :D
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] azeem40:
This is the best I have had on color os. I had over 6 hrs of screen on time!
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] bsp120167:
Has anyone had issues with the 3gb app partition on the Find 7?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] MrJiM:
What issues? 3gb is 3gb.... No more.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] bsp120167:
I am worried about it not being enough space. Considering you are getting a 32gb phone I would think they would give you more app room
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Jonnyn93:
Pleased

Ordered mine 3 days ago, and it arrived today, got the QHD X9076 version, very happy. Surprised that they sent me a free case when it was removed from my basket after I added the student discount. I also love how both the case and the carbon fiber battery cover have QI receivers(take note samsung)

Love the phone so far, the gestures work well, its unfortunate that the OS is so heavy, there's a lot of pre-installed poop on there which I don't want. Hopefully the CM stable builds will come soon. Build quality is also really good, I was expecting less. Speakers are good, screen looks nice, very neutral compared to other phones, but I quite like it. Rooted with custom recovery already, now just waiting for some good Roms. :laugh:
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] tictactoe89:
first impressions- literally. Been just a day with the phone.

Bloody fantastic- post update to firmware version ending in 625. Before was a battery sucker! LOVE the astro black rear body :D

Likes

:

Great camera- during day time with ample light. Haven't tried much during low light scenarios yet.

Cell reception is good.

Wifi is good too

Good build quality, I think I am already getting used to it with my small hands. One hand operation is still difficult though.

Stock headset is pretty damn good! the Dirac effect in music app is also sweet!

fast charge- boo ;)

almost 4hr of screen on time with Auto brightness, LTE/3G(auto) with manual switching to Wifi(On/Off), few mins of music, lot of data hungry applications like whatsapp and other social networks, Camera (30-40 odd pics in a day, with UHD and HDR on for some).

Dislikes and or Issues:

Bluetooth

is buggy and moody. Sometimes doesn't turn ON or OFF, when I try to do it from the toggle notifications and also from settings menu. When ON, Auto-connects, disconnects with O-click on its own and hence issues with the O-Click application and functionality.

Camera app, Dislike the beautify picture on the front camera. Cant find the way to disable it permanently, any suggestions here would be appreciated for that.

Again from camera app, can't find that track focus feature they show in one of the FIND 7 advertisements.

so far 7/10 I guess
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] tictactoe89:
buddy! how on earth did you manage that?

what other apps have you been using? to do battery saving and all.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] dan0s:
I have just received mine.

First impressions are that it looks like a very nice device. But the whites on the screen appear quite pink.

Not sure if this is just my device or does everyone else notice this?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brenny86:
I received mine on the 1st of July, so far love it. No hardware issues.

Best features:

- The speaker is way better than that of my last 2 phones (nexus one and htc one x).

- Camera takes photos instantly.

- ColorOS better than I originally imagined it would be.

- Solid hardware.

- App encryption app that is part of colorOS, can add pincode and secure any app quickly and easily.

I'm just petrified of dropping it, might need to look into a case of some sort.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Scratchling:
Got mine a few hours ago. Fast charging rocks. Screen is whopper. Camera is as expected. All good. Stock case isnt as bad as I thought.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] dan0s:
I have installed the CM nightly and am enjoying it so far. The screen is great but the phone needs some optimising through software.

I do have a gripe with only 3gb of space available for apps, I restored my old phones titanium backup and have hit the limit already which is frustrating.

Battery seems to drain quickly.

Looking forward to some nice custom kernels!
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] azeem40:
Only thing I did was turn on power savings mode at 30 percent or less. That was with YouTube, picture taking, browsing the web, playing on nds emulator for an hr or so, and asphalt 8 for a while.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] beton87:
What about screen sensitivity? I have random touches during scrolling sometimes.

I've noticed that a screen protector is applied by the manufacturer. Can I remove it safely? I read once it may be responsible for the touch problems.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Mord0rr:
This post was made on oppo forum by me...

Well my arrive about 3 days ago (7a). 2 day it takes to receive from UK. No complaints here.

So far no big problems.... except im not big fan of colour Android, and would like to have stock android.

Negative points:

- Can`t install Navigon GPS software (now i hace Sygis no big deal).

- Can change DPI (i hate big icons)

- Scrolling on FB up and down, is not so fluid experience like my S3 (less frames on Oppo??)

- Same problem with audio....too high...and notifications star low, but them they seem to increase by themselves....

- Another question i did not read here on any forum, but so far, when a receive a call, the audio seems to be very low....

at least in comparative with my S3

.

(UPDATE) - Have to use general buttons to increase...

Maybe e can turn up audio...but not shure.....i have to confirm because i receive few calls.

Of course i would love Oppo change a little the way they make business, especially outside Asia and provide a future Kitkat or L relase... but....my faith here is very small:(

Positive points:

Damm fast...no FC so far....4G, GPS, WI-FI, etc, etc, etc...seems to work flawless, and

wi-fi is a charm capting signal

.

Even the yellow problem at the bottom of the screen of it seems almost undetectable....so far.

Another little detail i could notice...my "carbon" back seems, put it in a determined angle against the light, with some scratchs..but nothing serious....

Of corse, the BIG PROBLEM, for me is not have 4.4Kit kat, but a full stable rom even with 4.3, like my S3, and i would be in heaven...

I did manage install S4 camera, and im going now try to use Sphere mode.

So far, i made ony root to oppo, and ignore last update, sice some users detected loss of root when did try install it again...

Almost forget it:

With 80% battery, all off of except GSM signal, on the morning i read 75%....:rolleyes:

I did close all applications on background...

In General im very hapy with the device, i take a risk here, but so far :highfive::highfive:

---------- Post added at 01:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:18 PM ----------

UPDATE:

I successfully made a Sphere photo of my house....however.....i did catch a little sun....:(

And the i couldn`t see anything on the screen....:eek::eek:

BIG problem here since a use a lot the telf. for photos, and on suny day i simply can see nothing!

Also...the original protection works like a perfect mirror...i see my face better then what's inside Oppo screen...

For nor, its the BIGGER criticize i made to this model....

Any thoughts too?

I played with mine for few days and preparing to put my SGS3 for Sale :)

X9076:

+ very fast, responsive; reinstalling all my applications were under 30 mins

+ no longer getting my apps killed because of no memory

+ camera speed, checking photo taken and back to camera is now almost instant

+ battery charging is awesome

0 different approach to sensitivity than SGS3, I'll have to get used to it

0 it's bigger so no longer fits in my palm, but I knew that

0 it has it's microUSB slot opposite to my SGS3, so I'll have to buy new docks (and oppo doesn't sell them)

0 some applications do not know to use QHD and display their interface ridiculously small - now I know it's not find7's fault, so only "neutral"; colorOS could use some form of zoom/font replacement settings for applications; guess I'll have to use xposed for that

0 would like to also change font size for notifications (some are ridiculously large and take too much space with huge fonts) and hide some notifications on status bar (no, I don't need to know my phone company's name there, takes to much place)

0 no 4.4 android, but we knew that so “neutral” rating

- bluetooth is moody and sometimes disconnects - which not only triggers o-click alarm, but also kills current wifi connection (and makes it unavailable for up to few minutes)

- my language is not selectable; now I don't mind translation (knew that it isn't available yet), but all applications use system language and preferences - and I've to convince each of them individually, that I don't like fahrenheit and inches

- 3GB for applications is ridiculous; why I cannot have single-partition system with those 32GB? basic phone memory should be mainly for system and apps, I can extend it with SD if I need more place for "movies"...

- no fast charges for purchase as spare

-- disappointed with flip cover; I received navy variant and not only it looks (very) cheap compared to my astro black, but is also extremely slippery

Update:

- volume settings are buggy: I set it to vibration only to find out some time later, that it changed itself to maximum volume - not funny sometimes

- audio from webbrowser is silenced 3-5 minutes after phone is locked, though no energy saving option is turned on, kills mynoise.net
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] chewbyte:
+ Screen is insanely good. Almost OLED tier. 2k is most definitely worth it.

+ Fast, even with ColorOS being quite the resource hog.

+ ColorOS is suprisingly good, very full featured.

+ No yellow / blue screen tint on my unit.

+ Fantastic price compared to the competition.

- Facebook preinstalled.

- Back cover was kind of hard to take off the first time.

I'll have to play around with it more, but so far it's the best phone I've ever owned. I'm astonished.

[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Yakobus:
Hey guys,

I am looking for a successor to my Galaxy Note II which - surprisingly - did not survive a little unfortunate walk into the ocean :o

After some research I got pretty interested in the Find 7a, and after even more research I can say that I really desire one :D

The only device I could imagine to buy instead of the F7a is the Galaxy Note 3 as I would like to have a 5,5"+ display with powerful hardware and a solid camera along a user replaceable battery. I could possibly get a relative's used one in good condition for about 300 to 350 euros.

I've read the whole thread to gain some more impressions of the Find 7a's overall performance and build quality (simply because all those reviews and tests out there cannot quite replace true user experience, I guess ;) ).

After all I am quite convinced of this device being a true flagship killer if handed to a power user :good:

Nevertheless, I would like you to say some more words about the following points:

- Display colors and contrast: Some reviews say its crisp but colors, contrast and brightness are poor,

others say it's great at at all (especially the "real" users) - remember that I am a former AMOLED user :p

- Usability of the display during day-/sunlight (same as with point 1, reviews differ)

- Power and volume button build quality

- Battery life, especially screen time under average usage

- Vibration intensity

- Lighting of capacitive buttons and Skyline LED

This is more or less sorted in order of importance, first 4 points are essential, the last two are for the perfectionist inside :D

I am aware of the fact that those topics already popped up during the discussion but maybe some of you could sum up their experiences concretely :) Many others will surely be thankful as well!

I just want to make sure that I do not spend hundreds of euros in a brand new phone which fnally does not convince me during all-day-usage due to dozens of minor issues you could not read in the fact sheet (I guess you all know that feeling, don't you? ;) ).

Software issues (e.g. COS bugs or maybe display calibration) are nothing I care too much about because they can be fixed later (and surely will be, at least with a custom ROM) but poor hardware will accompany you the rest of your phones life.

Thanks a lot in advance! Looking forward to finally gain the last 10% of conviction to order a F7a ;)
