    Oppo Find N5 and OnePlus Open 2 Launch Timeline Revealed

    After taking a year off, Oppo is set to release its new foldable device, the Find N5, in China in 2025. The global launch will be under the name OnePlus Open 2. Although there wasn’t much information available earlier, fresh leaks are starting to shed light on the device.

    Expected Launch Date and Specs

    Recently, a tipster on Weibo, known as Smart Pikachu, shared some specifications of the phone, along with when we might expect it to launch. Reports from insiders suggest that Oppo aims to unveil the Find N5 sometime in the first half of 2025, specifically between January and June. The device is anticipated to come with a 50MP triple rear camera setup and will likely be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor.

    Design and Features

    The foldable is rumored to be sleek and lightweight, featuring a metal frame and offering support for wireless magnetic charging. Oppo teased this wireless charging feature in a subtle video for the Find X8 back in September. Interestingly, the tipster claims that the foldable will work well with Apple’s ecosystem. This probably refers to the “Share with iPhone” function that Oppo and OnePlus included in their Android 15 skin, allowing easy sharing of photos, videos, and files between Android and iPhone devices, but it does need an app installed on the iPhone.

    Battery and Camera Capabilities

    A previous report indicated that the Find N5 will use a dual-cell battery setup (2,460mAh + 3,105mAh), giving it a total rated capacity of 5,565mAh, and a typical capacity close to 5,700mAh. The camera configuration is expected to consist of a 50MP main camera, a 50MP ultra-wide lens, and a 50MP periscope telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom, all within a slim 9mm body.

    The Oppo Find N3, also known as the OnePlus Open, was highly praised for both its hardware and software quality. The brands are anticipated to maintain this standard of excellence with their upcoming foldable, especially after taking a year-long hiatus. It will be exciting to see the innovations they introduce next.

  • OnePlus Open 2 Specs Leak: 5700mAh Battery, 50MP Cameras, Slim Design

    OnePlus Open 2 Specs Leak: 5700mAh Battery, 50MP Cameras, Slim Design

    Prominent leaker Digital Chat Station has recently revealed important specifications for the upcoming OnePlus Open 2 and Oppo Find N5 foldable smartphones. Both devices, similar to their earlier versions, the OnePlus Open and Oppo Find N3 (which we reviewed), are believed to share the same design. The OnePlus model is set to be released globally, while the Oppo version will be exclusive to China. Both smartphones are anticipated to debut in the first quarter of 2025.

    Slim Design Expected

    In a Weibo post, the leaker mentioned that the “extreme slimness” is likely to be the key highlight of these new foldables. This aligns with previous statements suggesting they might be slimmer than the current record-holder, the 9.2 mm thick Honor Magic V3 (check out our review here). Even though the overall design is expected to remain unchanged, featuring a prominent round camera module, the screen size is rumored to increase, though the exact dimensions remain unspecified.

    Enhanced Camera and Battery

    Regarding the camera setup, the new models are said to include three 50 MP Hasselblad-tuned cameras: a main camera, an ultra-wide camera, and a periscope telephoto lens with 3x zoom capabilities. Additionally, the battery is reportedly getting a substantial upgrade to 5,700 mAh (using a dual-cell configuration), compared to the previous 4,805 mAh, and will support wireless charging.

    Powerful Performance Ahead

    The new foldable devices will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC, which is also expected to feature in several upcoming flagship phones like the OnePlus 13, Xiaomi 15 series, iQoo 13, RedMagic 10 Ultra, and Asus ROG Phone 9.

    Interestingly, some of these specifications seem to conflict with recently leaked information from other sources, which suggest a larger 6,000 mAh silicon-carbon battery and a quad-camera arrangement similar to what’s expected on the Oppo Find X8 Ultra. As the launch date approaches, we can anticipate more information to surface.

  • Expectations for Oppo Find N5 and OnePlus Open 2 Features

    Expectations for Oppo Find N5 and OnePlus Open 2 Features

    Launched in October 2023, the Oppo Find N3 and its rebranded version, the OnePlus Open, have received some backlash for not meeting expectations. Even though Qualcomm introduced the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 later that same month, both foldable devices are powered by the older Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, which makes them feel outdated when compared to current flagship models. Reports suggest that the upcoming Find N5/OnePlus Open 2 will be one of the first foldable phones to feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4. Here’s a summary of what we know about the new Oppo/OnePlus foldable so far.

    Naming and Rebranding of the Oppo Find N5

    There is currently no definitive information on the name of Oppo’s next foldable device. The number “4” is viewed as unlucky in many Asian cultures, which might lead the company to name its next product the Find N5 instead of the Find N4. The N5 is anticipated to launch in markets like China and various Southeast Asian countries, while it may be branded as the OnePlus Open (the first foldable from OnePlus) in regions such as India and the United States.

    Oppo/OnePlus devices will be made available

    Future Prospects for the Find N5

    Oppo has yet to officially acknowledge the Find N5. The company is reportedly concentrating on the launch of the Find X8 series, which is expected to occur on October 21. It is likely that official information about the Find N5 may be revealed in December, with rumors possibly emerging a few weeks ahead of the announcement. As excitement grows, consumers are eager to see how Oppo will tackle the challenges associated with naming and marketing its forthcoming foldable device.

  • Oppo Find N4 & OnePlus Open 2 Launch Date, Chipset, Revealed

    Oppo Find N4 & OnePlus Open 2 Launch Date, Chipset, Revealed

    Oppo is reportedly developing its fourth-generation foldable phone, the Oppo Find N4, aimed at the Chinese market. Last year, the Find N3 was also exclusive to China, while its global counterpart was released as the OnePlus Open. Given this pattern, it’s likely that the N4 will be rebranded as the OnePlus Open 2 for international markets. A recent leak from tipster Digital Chat Station has revealed the launch timeline for the Find N4 / Open 2.

    Oppo Find N4 / OnePlus Open 2 Key Details (Rumored)

    According to a Weibo post by DCS, Huawei is working on a tri-foldable smartphone featuring the Kirin 9-series chipset, dual hinges, and several new technologies. However, the release date for this device remains unclear.

    Next, DCS hints at the imminent launch of Oppo and Vivo’s next-generation foldable phones. These devices, likely to be named the Find N4 and Vivo X Fold 4 / Pro, are expected to be unveiled in the first quarter of 2025. This means the OnePlus Open 2 may also launch globally around the same time.

    DCS disclosed that these devices would be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset. Despite having a battery capacity of approximately 6,000mAh, these foldable phones will maintain a slim profile. Unfortunately, no additional details were shared about these devices.

  • OnePlus Open 2 Launch Canceled for 2024, Tipster Reveals

    OnePlus Open 2 Launch Canceled for 2024, Tipster Reveals

    While the market for foldable phones is buzzing with anticipation around new models from Samsung, Motorola, and others, OnePlus enthusiasts might face a letdown. According to trusted sources, the OnePlus Open 2 will not make its debut this year.

    Expected Launch in 2025

    The successor to the well-received OnePlus Open is now anticipated to launch in 2025. This update dashes hopes for a 2024 release. The Open 2 is rumored to be equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset.

    Chipset and Launch Details

    Information about the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 is limited, with an official unveiling expected later this year (October-November 2024). The initial phones featuring this chip might be released as early as December, particularly in China.

    The global release timeline for most Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 devices remains uncertain, and it's unclear if the Open 2 will be among them.

    Little Information Available

    Currently, there's scant concrete information about the OnePlus Open 2. This lack of details is expected to continue for some time. Historically, OnePlus has rebranded Oppo’s foldable phones for international markets.

    Following this pattern, the Open 2 is likely to be a rebranded version of the Oppo Find N5, much like the original Open was a rebrand of the Oppo Find N3 released last year.

    However, the leaked details might hold true, especially given previous rumors that Oppo postponed the Find N5’s launch until 2025. Since the Open 2 is expected to be a rebrand, it’s not surprising that its release will also be delayed until 2025.
