With a DXOMARK Camera score of 105, the Oppo Find X3 Lite lands in the second tier of our smartphone rankings overall. However, the Find X3 is in joint fifth place in the high-end category of devices priced between $400-599.
The Find X3 Lite has a global score comparable to the Oppo Find X2 Neo’s. The X3 Lite performed slightly better against the X2 Neo in the Photo category, but the X2 Neo was better for Zoom (thanks to its tele module) as well as for video. The Find X3 Lite is 10 points lower than the newer and slightly more expensive Find X3 Neo.
Compared to the Samsung A52 5G, the Find X3 Lite scores 3 points higher overall because of better performances for the main camera and for video. It has a lower Zoom score, however.
Compared to the similarly priced Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G, the Find X3 Lite scores 6 points lower overall. The Xiaomi is 10 points ahead in the Photo category and 6 points ahead for Video. The Find X3 Lite does fare slightly better for Zoom, however, thanks to marginally better quality tele-lens shots.
Below you can find a detailed analysis and image samples for all Photo, Zoom, and Video sub-attributes, as well as comparisons with such alternative devices as the Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 Pro, the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G, the Oppo Find X2 Neo, the Oppo Find X3 Neo, and the Samsung Galaxy A52 5G.

In these tests we shoot a selection of images in pitch-black darkness as well as with city lights in the background providing some illumination. We shoot sample images with the camera at default settings in both flash-auto and flash-off modes. We analyze all image quality attributes but we pay particular attention to exposure, autofocus, and color. We do not test night modes that have to be activated manually.

Video
The Oppo Find X3 Lite achieves a Video score of 95. A device’s overall Video score is derived from its performance and results across a range of attributes in the same way as the Photo score. In this section, we take a closer look at these sub-scores and compare video image quality against competitors.
In our Video tests we analyze the same image quality attributes as for still images, such as exposure, color, texture, and noise, but we also include such temporal aspects as speed, smoothness and stability of exposure, white balance, and autofocus transitions.
