Foldable flip phones have taken a leap forward this year, marked by prominent releases such as the Motorola Razr+ and the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5. Now, the spotlight turns to the imminent arrival of the OPPO Find N3 Flip, featuring a revamped camera design while retaining the familiar outer display.
OPPO’s Progress in Foldable Flips
Introduced late last year, OPPO’s inaugural foray into foldable flip phones was the Find N2 Flip. This device brought a groundbreaking proposition to the table. With a 3.26-inch cover display that outstripped its peers, the phone entered the global market in February/March. Its robust camera, commendable hardware, and seamlessly integrated foldable software initially gave it a competitive edge.
However, over subsequent months, OPPO’s position has undergone a transformation. The resurgence of the Motorola Razr and the introduction of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 have introduced flip phones featuring larger and more capable outer displays than ever before.
Camera Evolution in OPPO Find N3 Flip
The impending OPPO Find N3 Flip maintains its current outer display design while ushering in a fresh camera module. An illustrative rendering shared by PriceBaba reveals the familiar display shape and size, accompanied by a redesigned camera setup.
The two separate cutouts have been replaced by a singular circular module housing three camera sensors. This configuration is supplemented by an adjacent flash and prominent Hasselblad branding.
Crucially, the overall design is expected to remain largely consistent. A prior leak had hinted at this continuation, although the revised camera design had not been showcased.
OPPO Find N3 Flip: Rumoured Specifications
The upcoming Find N3 Flip, as leaked by Digital Chat Station, will showcase a triple rear camera setup including a 50MP primary sensor with OIS, a telephoto sensor, and an ultra-wide angle lens.
The front boasts a punch-hole display with high-frequency dimming and eye protection mode. It’s powered by MediaTek Dimensity 9200+ SoC with 16GB RAM and features a larger 4,800mAh battery with 67W fast charging, upgrading from the previous model.
Anticipated Launch Timeline: OPPO Find N3 Flip
The wait for details will not be protracted. Reports indicate that OPPO is poised to unveil the Find N3 Flip as early as this month, beginning with its launch in China. A global release is anticipated shortly thereafter, with a target date in September. This timeline defies conventional expectations, as OPPO typically introduces new foldables towards the close of the year.
