Wait. Why u get from china. Find X8 should be available in SG. Just get the SG version that comes with Global ROM.

We get from china becos Find X8 Ultra is only china edition.
Because it's much cheaper than the retail price? China set was selling below 700 while the official site selling at 1.2k.

Then u really need to weight. Is the difference worth it.

$500 to some is a lot, but to others is just 1 KTV session. Anyway, global phone or cn phone, end of the day, you must like and love your phone. You happy can already!

Anyway, nowadays china ROM has lesser Cons.
> No esim (Is okie, for me). In fact, all phone sold in china need to have physical SIM card tray. I believe this applies for China Iphone as well

> No Google timeline (sad, but a fact. I can live without it).

> Warranty.Yes have. Need to bring it back to China. In fact I bought extended warranty. Not too sure Oppo SG recognize this warranty. But I make frequent trips to china so is okie for me

> No wearos
Yes. Previously I used Oppo Find X6 Pro and managed to connect to my Samsung watch 5 Pro (via wearOS). But after few updates and reboot. Unable to do anymore. So is fine. I can live without this. Now using Huawei WatchGT 4. Happily with my Oppo Find X8 Ultra.
I gave up X8U due to CN version of ColorOS which has agressive app maagement that i missed or not received app notifications. I switched to local N5 instead.

If you set your mobile network to 5G, you will get delayed incoming activity notification.



However, setting back to 4G everything will run smoothly.


I am using Find X8 :)

You can ask other China ROM Oppo phone users, see whether they kana delayed incoming activity notification, then they try set to 4G network, see whether it helps or not

4G and 5G have nothing to do with delayed notifications, probably your Telco 5G not good enough in signal strength compared to 4G thus you couldn't receive notifications. Stop with the cap plz.

Been using China ROM phone since Oppo Find X6 Pro. Never had I encounter delayed notification.

Nowadays the gap for China rom and global ROM is get slimmer. Delayed notification is perhaps 5 years ago.
In the past, I dun get notification in AOD. The AOD notification is for WeChat only
Now I have color AOD for WeChat and Whatapps!
