OPPO is scheduled to launch the Find X9s in the country on May 21st. The latest addition to the X9 series is expected to bring sub-premium-tier hardware, headlined by the MediaTek Dimensity 9500s SoC. This should make it slightly less powerful than the standard Find X9 (review), which features the premium-tier-grade Dimensity 9500 chipset.

The Find X9s also skips wireless charging. These aspects should make it more appealing than its elder sibling, but with the rising memory, one can never tell. Vivo recently surprised shoppers by pricing the less powerful X300 FE above the more capable X300, showing that chipset hierarchy no longer guarantees lower pricing.
