The OnePlus Open, originally introduced in 2023 as a rebranded Oppo Find N3, is set to receive a successor with a new foldable design under Oppo’s branding. Dubbed the Oppo Find N5, the smartphone is expected to launch in February 2024 in China and aims to solidify its position as the world’s thinnest foldable device. The design and engineering enhancements aim to push the boundaries of mobile innovation, offering premium functionality in a compact, foldable form factor.
Vero’s thoughts on the news:
The race to create the sleekest foldable smartphone is fascinating, but challenging for app optimization. Developers need to ensure applications run seamlessly across dynamic screen real estates, including folding transitions and aspect ratio adjustments. While the proposed hardware sounds innovative, success will be tied closely to how well the software leverages this form factor. From a technical standpoint, it pushes industry trends forward and sets a benchmark for responsive design. However, durability and practical usability for daily usage remain concerns for foldables in general.
