- The Oppo Find N5 is rumored to launch soon and is said to feature a super slim design with a titanium frame.
- Leaks suggest that the Find N5 (and potentially the OnePlus Open 2) could be the thinnest foldable phones yet, possibly surpassing the Honor Magic V3, which currently holds that title.
- Key features of the Find N5 include a Hasselblad triple-camera system with a periscope lens, Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, satellite communication capabilities, and a battery capacity of “nearly 6,000mAh” with support for wireless charging.
Recent reports from China indicate that the Oppo Find N5 is set to launch soon, boasting a super slim design encased in a titanium frame.
Initially rumored to be released in 2024, the Find N5 (which is inspiring the design of the OnePlus Open 2) faced some delays but recent leaks confirm that both OnePlus and Oppo are still committed to bringing this foldable phone to market.
A Weibo post by leaker Digital Chat Station revealed that the upcoming Oppo Find N5 will feature a titanium chassis and could potentially be the thinnest foldable phone yet (via Notebookcheck).
If these reports are accurate, the new Oppo model could surpass the Honor Magic V3 as the slimmest foldable phone. The Magic V3 currently measures 9.2mm when folded and 4.35mm when unfolded. This would set a new standard in the foldable market, although specific dimensions of the upcoming device have not been shared.
While previous leaks have hinted at the design of the OnePlus Open 2, details about the materials used have not been confirmed. However, the use of titanium in the body seems feasible given its popularity in premium smartphones for its combination of strength and lightweight properties.
Smart Pikachu, another leaker, shared more information about the device’s features in a separate Weibo post. The design prioritizes durability, with a triple-camera setup co-engineered with Hasselblad, including a periscope lens for improved optics.
The source also mentioned that the phone will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, support satellite communication, and may come with a battery capacity of “nearly 6,000mAh” with wireless charging capabilities.
Smart Pikachu suggested a potential February 2025 release date for the Oppo Find N5, giving OnePlus an opportunity to lead the foldable market. With the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 expected later in the year, the Open 2 could establish a strong presence in the market and build a dedicated following before its main competitor arrives.
