It seems that foldable display devices are constantly fighting adversity. The technology is not yet mature and very expensive, but its emergence Alco is currently struggling with the unfortunate world market and economic conditions. Nevertheless, Samsung has successfully proven that if you are big enough and brave enough in terms of your offer and price, the foldable form factor can be very successful.
With that in mind, the foldable market seems to be on the verge of a major expansion. According to industry sources, Oppo has been working on its first foldable for quite some time now. Unfortunately one rumored launch window after another is missing in this process. Well, in an exciting new development, the well-known Lexter digital chat station recently shared some interesting posts on Weibo. The first of these has been tagged as being posted from a mysterious device called Oppo Find N 5G. The post contains a reference to the long-forgotten Oppo N series phones and looks like the Oppo N3 – a very strange device from 2014/2015 whose original camera was in a motorized swivel to make it work. Capture a selfie and some interesting panoramas.
The second post, related to the mysterious Oppo Find N 5G, looks like a foldable display, as well as a way to use the phone’s flagship 50MP Sony IMX766 sensor for selfies. A foldable phone is certainly not unimaginable. The post also includes a reference to the Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra that takes selfies with the main camera via a small display on the back. Perhaps the Oppo Find N 5G will have a smaller display of its own, with most sources agreeing that it would be an internal folder.
Find branding certainly suggests the flagship feature, so we won’t put it before Oppo. Then again, we should note that the company’s recent patents for foldable devices include things like a pop-up camera, as well as a weird clamshell with an outward-facing screen and a reminder of the Oppo N3 mentioned above Learn More…
A different source claims that Oppo’s foldable display phone has a 7.8 to 8-inch OLED display with 2K resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. Clearly, this is so far in its development and production cycle that units are already spreading to stores through internal channels for the purpose of employee training. This would mean impending release.
What Zhaoli Technology has mentioned is that this new design is apparently not too complicated and will allow for higher profit margins on the device itself. A development that even a company on the scale of Huawei would be desperate to make the foldable device of the future effective and successful. All the information that connects nicely with the previous rumors that Huawei is actually working on a more affordable another foldable phone.
