Oppo New Foldable Device Solved Crease Problem

The Chinese electronics-maker launched its latest Find N foldable phone on Wednesday, during the second day of its “Inno Day” event.  The new phone sold only in China starting on Dec. 23, is a little smaller than rival foldable devices like Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold line.

The Find N has a similar design to the Z Fold, but sports a 5.49-inch outer display and a 7.1-inch inner screen. Samsung has a 6.2-inch screen on the front and a 7.6-inch display when opened.  A Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 processor and 12GB of RAM power the device, which is running Oppo ColorOS 12, based on Android 11.

Oppo fast wireless and wired charging are here, with the Find N supporting the company’s 33-watt SuperVOOC Flash Charge for wired charging and 15-watt AirVOOC for wireless charging. There is also 10-watt reverse wireless charging, so it can charge other devices wirelessly.  The company says that using the SuperVOOC wired charging, the phone and its 4,500-mAh battery can go from dead to 55% in 30 minutes and to 100% in 70 minutes.

The Find N isn’t IP68-rated for water- and dust-resistance, Oppo says that it does go through rigorous water-resistance and durability testing to ensure the device can easily cope with things like sweat, moisture and light drizzle that are regularly encountered in everyday usage scenarios.
