The source claims that OPPO is working on its first clamshell foldable smartphone. It is aimed to provide consumers with “a value-for-money” clamshell foldable smartphone experience.
OPPO is planning to launch a competitor to the Galaxy Z Flip 3
This smartphone is allegedly coming in the third quarter this year. We’re still not sure when exactly, but July, August, and September count in the third quarter, so there you have it. The name of this smartphone is still unknown. What the source was able to confirm, however, is that it will launch under the ‘Find’ series. That is to be expected, as that is the company’s flagship smartphone series. That’s not the only foldable smartphone OPPO is working on, though. According to the provided information, OPPO is also working on a successor to the OPPO Find N. The Find N is OPPO’s first smartphone, which managed to attract a lot of attention to itself. It is said that the Find N successor is coming early next year. We’re not sure if that timeline is accurate, but that’s what the source is claiming. For reference, the OPPO Find N launched in December last year.
OPPO did a great job with the Find N, its first foldable smartphone
Considering that OPPO did a great job with the Find N, the expectations are high for this clamshell foldable. The Find N is not available outside of China, at least not yet, so let’s hope the same won’t be the case with this clamshell smartphone. The OPPO Find N would benefit from more exposure, in more markets, so let’s hope that OPPO will decide to offer its second foldable smartphone in more markets. We’re still not sure if that will be a flagship-grade smartphone, as we’re not sure how much will it cost. The source did say it will be a “value-for-money” foldable smartphone, so… that gives us hope.
