OPPO has launched its latest Flip smartphone the OPPO Find N3 Flip in India, as they promised. It has a 6.8-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with 1-120Hz refresh rate, up to 1600 nits peak brightness, 1440Hz high-frequency PWM dimming, ProXDR display technology, and a side-mounted fingerprint scanner.
There's a 3.26-inch AMOLED outer display with a 60Hz refresh rate, now featuring Gorilla Glass Victus for enhanced protection. The outer screen is capable of accommodating various widgets, a smart home screen, weather wallpapers, interactive pet wallpapers 2.0, as well as an application center for windowed apps. It is the first foldable smartphone that runs on the MediTek Dimensity 9200 processor with 12GB LPDDR5X RAM, and 256GB UFS 4.0 storage.
It is based on Android 13 with ColorOS 13.2, and the company has promised 4 years of major Android updates and 5 years of security patch updates for the phone, similar to the N2 Flip.
In terms of the hinge mechanism within the Find N3 Flip, there's a notable enhancement. The previous-generation Find N2 Flip's single friction plate has been upgraded to a dual friction plate structure, resulting in improved FlexForm stability. Furthermore, the device incorporates aircraft-grade high-strength steel at critical load-bearing points to bolster durability. This adjustment increases resistance to deformation from drops by an impressive 25%, in comparison to the Find N2 Flip.
Continuing a design tradition from the previous generation, the hinge on this device features a finely detailed micro-carved flowing texture. This aesthetic effect is achieved through a meticulous process involving surface carving, which occurs up to 12,000 times over a duration of three minutes, resulting in a captivating visual resembling the undulating patterns of water waves on the metal hinge.
The Find N3 Flip is equipped with a trio of rear cameras neatly housed within a circular module adjacent to the cover screen. The device boasts a 50MP Sony IMX890 primary camera with an expansive 1/1.56-inch sensor. Additionally, it features a telephoto portrait camera supported by a 32MP IMX709 sensor, providing 2x optical zoom capabilities, video calls, selfies, and 4K 30fps videos.
OPPO has diligently refined its bokeh effects, collaborating with renowned camera manufacturer Hasselblad. Furthermore, it includes a fresh addition in the form of a 114-degree wide-angle camera, featuring a 48MP Sony IMX581 sensor. The autofocus functionality of this camera enables users to capture macro shots of subjects as close as 4cm. It is powered by the 4,300mAh that supports 44W wired charging.
