The latest Galaxy S26 series, Google Pixel, or Apple iPhone are the go-to brands not just for great all-around flagships. They are also considered to be among the most consistent camera phones, often with good reason.But having used them all at various points over the years, I’ve recently fallen in love with the superior camera setups in the OPPO Find X9 Ultra and Xiaomi 17 Ultra. These are two of the most expensive smartphones on the market right now, and you can’t even buy them officially in the US. Still, if you’re after the best of the best, these two offer photography packages that are a cut above everyone else.
