Welcome to episode 33 of The Sideload, a 9to5Google podcast. This week, Will welcomes Phandroid's Editor-in-Chief Nick Gray to the show to discuss his time spent with Oppo's Find X9 Ultra and Vivo's X300 Ultra. They might not be on your wishlist for your next Android phone, but Nick discusses what makes their cameras so exceptional, what it's like using an imported phone as your daily driver, and whether we'll ever see some of the best aspects on display here come to North American devices.
