China-based Oppo announced its long-awaited foldable phone with a statement it made recently. In its press release, the company stated that the foldable phone called ‘Oppo Find N’ will be officially introduced on Wednesday, December 15th.
The company provided a small glimpse of the phone in a video it shared, but these few seconds of footage didn’t tell us much about what Find N would look like. However, new photos leaked yesterday have provided us with new information about the design of the company’s highly anticipated phone.
Similar to Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3
Trusted leakster Evan Blass (@evleaks) shared high-quality photos of Find N on Twitter. The thing that attracts the most attention in the shared images is that the phone is very similar to Samsung’s foldable phone Galaxy Z Fold 3. It can also be observed in the leaked photos that the phone can be opened and closed like a book, and that it has three rear cameras like the Galaxy Z Fold 3.
Find N in images; While it is striking that it has colors such as black, white, gray, pale green and lavender, the inscription ‘Designed for You to Find’ on the bottom of the device also draws attention. Although we know that Oppo has passed the Find N through ‘six different prototypes’, the company has not shared many details about the phone so far.
“The future of smartphones”
Smartphone manufacturers continue to invest in foldable phones. These manufacturers state that they want foldable phones to become the mainstream of smartphones and be the future of smartphones. Pete Lau, product manager of Oppo Find N, also uses the following statements about this situation: “Devices like this will be the future of smartphones. In these years, when everyone had similar configurations, smartphone experiences began to fail. Therefore, the importance of foldable phones has increased even more. If we can break the general idea about smartphones, we can revolutionize the industry. ”
According to experts, there are currently two hurdles for smartphones to be found in our pockets. These; reliability and high prices. If manufacturers can make phones that are rugged enough to last for years, and prices can be set for anyone to buy, it may be possible for smartphones to go mainstream.
