OnePlus Open 2 Launching Early: Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 Rival
Samsung is likely to dominate the foldable market in 2025, particularly in Europe, but its market share is decreasing quickly due to rising competition and exciting new options that are set to launch next year. Among these are the Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold, anticipated to debut in the latter half of the year, as well as the Honor Magic V4/Magic V5, Vivo X Fold 4/X Fold 5, and the next version of Oppo’s Find N3.
New Developments from Oppo/OnePlus
Despite the critics, Oppo and OnePlus are planning new foldable devices. Their timeline has shifted just a bit from the typical yearly schedule, which is actually a good thing. The Oppo Find N5, which will be released globally as the OnePlus Open 2, is expected to be among the first foldables with the Snapdragon 8 Elite in the upcoming year. This was recently stated by Zhou Yibao, Product Manager for the Oppo Find Series, when responding to a question on Weibo. The Oppo Find N5 is set to arrive in China ahead of the Oppo Find X8 Ultra, which is likely to come after the Chinese New Year.
Anticipated Launches
Indian tipster Yogesh Brar also believes that the global version or the successor to the OnePlus Open (which can be found here at Amazon) will be unveiled shortly.
Insights on what OnePlus/Oppo might offer as alternatives to the Galaxy Z Fold 7 were recently shared by Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station in a Weibo post. He mentioned that the Find N5/Open 2 will be both lighter and slimmer, and that the trend in the industry will not just include Hasselblad camera foldables. The foldable tablet is also rumored to have an IPX8 waterproof rating, a 50 MP periscope telephoto lens, and a bigger battery that can now be charged wirelessly, unlike previous models.

Oppo Find X8 Mini Battery Size Leaked Through Certification
Recently, a new Oppo smartphone with the model number PKH120 was identified on China’s radio certification platform. This model supports satellite connectivity, while there is a PKH110 version that does not. The PKH120 / PKH110 has also appeared in the UFSC charging database, which has disclosed the battery capacity of the device. Initially, it was believed that this phone would be the Find X8 Ultra, but it now seems likely that it may be either the Find N5 or the Find X8 Mini.
Battery Capacity Uncovered
The Oppo PKH110 / PKH120 comes with a battery rated at 5,475mAh, as shown in the screenshot above. Popular leaker Digital Chat Station mentions that the typical rating for this battery is 5,600mAh. While the exact model name has not been revealed, he asserts that it belongs to the upcoming Find series, excluding the Find X8 Ultra, which is anticipated to have a 6,000mAh battery.
Expectations for the Find N5
Given that the Find N3 had a 4,805mAh battery, its successor is expected to feature a larger power source. DCS has previously suggested that the Find N5 will come with a dual-cell battery of 2,460+3,105mAh, yielding a total capacity of 5,565mAh (rated) and 5,700mAh (typical). In contrast, a 5,600mAh battery seems more fitting for a smaller phone. For example, the Vivo X200 Pro Mini, which has a 6.31-inch screen and runs on Dimensity 9400, includes a 5,700mAh battery.
Reports indicate that the Find N5 is set to launch ahead of the X8 Ultra and X8 Mini. The N5 is expected to be unveiled in February 2025 in China, while the Ultra and Mini are anticipated to be released in the first quarter of 2025.

OnePlus Open 2 Specs Revealed: Snapdragon 8 Elite Foldable Phone
Zhou Yibao, who leads the Oppo Find series, has given a hint about the Find N5, which is likely to be known as the OnePlus Open 2 in markets outside of China. While the Oppo representative did not provide any concrete information regarding the foldable device, a trustworthy source, Digital Chat Station, has disclosed some potential specifications.
Performance Specs
As anticipated, the OnePlus Open 2 will be equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Elite. According to Digital Chat Station, it might be the sole foldable phone featuring this advanced Qualcomm chipset in the first half of 2025. The source further claims that the new model will be lighter and slimmer than its predecessor, while also being more robust, which aligns with previous reports about upcoming foldable devices.
New Features
Another significant feature of the foldable phone, according to Digital Chat Station, will be the inclusion of wireless charging. For those who may not know, the first generation OnePlus Open lacks this capability, and with the addition of wireless charging, the new foldable will have a better chance of competing with the forthcoming Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 (currently, the 256 GB Z Fold 6 retails for $1,349 on Amazon).
Enhancements Over Previous Model
The report from Digital Chat Station also indicates that the OnePlus Open 2 will boast an IPX8 water resistance rating. This would represent a substantial upgrade from the previous model, which had an IPX4 rating. Although the leaker did not provide extensive details about the camera, it was noted that the foldable will include a 50 MP periscope telephoto lens, which was absent in the last version.
Looking ahead to the launch, the Oppo Find N5 is anticipated to officially debut in China during the first quarter of 2025. The global release as the Open 2 is expected to follow shortly after the Chinese unveiling.

Oppo Find N5 Teased: Key Upgrades and Specifications Leaked
Oppo’s User Feedback Initiative
Zhou Yibao, who leads the Oppo Find series, recently reached out to users on Weibo to gather input on the upcoming foldable smartphone from Oppo. He inquired about which upgrades users are most looking forward to in this next big foldable device. The survey included various factors such as weight, performance, battery duration, photography capabilities, wireless charging, and AI functionality. Meanwhile, a well-known tipster, Digital Chat Station, shared some intriguing details about the Oppo Find N5.
Official Teaser for Oppo Find N5
Earlier, the same Oppo executive hinted that the upcoming foldable phone might be named Oppo Find N5 based on a previous survey. The new poll indicates a clear focus on improving several aspects of the Find N5. The feedback from users is expected to shape the development priorities for this new model, ensuring that enhancements will meet what consumers desire.
Rumored Key Specs of Oppo Find N5
DCS reports that the Oppo Find N5 is set to include the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, a triple camera system boasting 50 megapixels with a periscope telephoto lens, wireless charging capabilities, and ColorOS 15. In comparison to its predecessor, the Find N3, the N5 is anticipated to be lighter, slimmer, and provide a longer-lasting battery. For durability, this device will feature an anti-fall design and IPX8 water resistance.
According to earlier leaks from DCS, the Find N5 might be powered by a 5,700mAh battery, although some sources suggest it could have a battery capacity around 6,000mAh. Expected to launch in the first quarter of 2025, the N5 will be the first foldable smartphone globally to use the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset.
Future Developments by Oppo
In addition to the Oppo Find N5, the company is said to be working on the Oppo Find X8 Ultra and Find X8 Mini, which is a compact flagship model. These devices are expected to debut in China in January 2025. There are also rumors that the Find N5 might be released as the OnePlus Open 2 in certain international markets.

Oppo Find N5 Specs Leak: New Design, Magnetic Charging & More
The excitement surrounding the Oppo Find N5 (and OnePlus Open 2) is quite significant, especially since Oppo opted not to release it this year. A leak from October indicated that it would debut in the first quarter of 2025, alongside the Find X8 Ultra. A recent report seems to confirm this timeline while offering additional technical insights into the next-generation Oppo foldable device.
Design Improvements
A Weibo user known as Smart Pikachu mentioned that the Oppo Find N5 is set to be the leading foldable smartphone for at least the first half of 2025. Reports suggest that Oppo has made the Find N5 both slimmer and lighter. For comparison, the Find N3 measures 5.8 mm in thickness when unfolded and 11.7 mm when folded, with a weight of 245 g (or 239 g for the leather-back version). The question remains whether the Find N5 can surpass the Honor Magic V3’s impressive thickness of 4.4 mm when unfolded and 9.3 mm folded.
Enhanced Durability
The source also noted that the Find N5 will feature a sturdier frame. Coupled with earlier reports of enhanced ingress protection, this indicates a better overall build quality. Currently, the Find X3/OnePlus Open retails for $1,299.99 on Amazon and has an IPX4 splash-resistant rating, which falls short when compared to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6‘s IPX8 water resistance.
Wireless Charging Capabilities
Another exciting feature highlighted by the leaker is the inclusion of support for Oppo’s magnetic wireless charging ecosystem, similar to that of the Find X8 series. Additionally, it will be compatible with Apple’s MagSafe accessories. This is particularly noteworthy as the Find N3 lacks wireless charging capabilities. Finally, it’s confirmed that the upcoming foldable will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite.
Most of the features mentioned for the Find N5 are likely to be included in the OnePlus Open 2, which is expected to be a rebranded or international variant of the Find N5, according to Smart Pikachu on Weibo.

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
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.

Oppo Find N5 and OnePlus Open 2 Leak: Bigger Screen, 50MP Cameras
Oppo has officially introduced the Find X8 and Find X8 Pro smartphones in China. In the first quarter of 2025, the company is anticipated to reveal the Find X8 Ultra, which will come equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor in its home country. Alongside the X8 Ultra, Oppo is also likely to announce the Oppo Find N5 foldable device during the same quarter. A recent post on Weibo by leaker Digital Chat Station has shared additional insights about the N5.
Design and Display of Oppo Find N5
As per the leaker, the overall design of the Oppo Find N5’s engineering prototype closely resembles that of the previous model, the Find N3. It will still feature a prominent circular camera setup on the rear. The tipster noted that the display size of the Find N5 will be larger than its predecessor, but didn’t specify exact dimensions. Earlier leaks from the same source indicated that the internal display of the device will support a 2K+ resolution.
Performance and Battery Capacity
Under the hood, the Oppo Find N5 is set to use the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, and reports hint that it could be the first foldable phone in the world to run on this processor. While the earlier model had a 4,805mAh battery, the N5 is expected to come with a significant upgrade featuring a dual-cell battery setup (2,460mAh + 3,105mAh), providing a total capacity of 5,565mAh. It’s estimated that the typical battery capacity will be around 5,700mAh.
Currently, there isn’t any verified information regarding the device’s wired charging abilities, but it is speculated to support wireless charging capabilities. Oppo has hinted that the N5 will also feature magnetic wireless charging technology.
Camera System and Slim Design
In terms of photography, the N5 is expected to boast a Hasselblad-optimized triple camera setup, which includes a 50-megapixel main camera, a 50-megapixel ultra-wide lens, and a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto camera that offers 3x optical zoom. A notable characteristic of the Find N5 is its thinness, measuring approximately 9.x mm when folded, according to earlier leaks from DCS. To keep this slim profile, the company plans to use a specially designed slim USB-C port.
There are rumors suggesting that the Find N5 may be rebranded as the OnePlus Open 2 in some regions like India, Europe, and the US, but there are no definitive details available about its launch schedule.

Vivo X Fold 4 Specs Leaked: 6000mAh Battery, Thinner Design
A recent update from the tipster Digital Chat Station has disclosed that both Oppo and Vivo are planning to introduce new foldable smartphones in the first quarter of 2025. Oppo’s new device, the Find N5, may be marketed globally as the OnePlus Open 2. On the other hand, Vivo is said to be preparing the Vivo X Fold 4 for launch. Earlier this year, in April, Vivo introduced the Vivo X Fold 3 and X Fold 3 Pro in China, which came with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and 8 Gen 3 chipsets, respectively. It is believed that the next iteration will feature just one model, tentatively referred to as the Vivo X Fold 4. A recent post on Weibo by the tipster DCS has seemingly unveiled some key specifications of this upcoming device.
Vivo X Fold 4 Rumored Specifications
According to the latest leak, Digital Chat Station mentioned a new foldable phone that will be powered by the SM8750, which is the upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset. Recent reports suggest that both the Oppo Find N5 and the Vivo X Fold 4 are expected to come with the SD8G4 SoC. Although the tipster didn’t specify the device’s name, he indicated that it will keep the wireless charging capability. Notably, the Oppo Find N3 does not support wireless charging, while the Vivo X Fold 3 series does. This implies that he could be talking about the Vivo X Fold 4.
Design and Features
The leaked information suggests that the Vivo X Fold 4 will likely showcase a round camera module on the back. It is expected to include a triple camera system with a 50-megapixel main camera and a single periscope telephoto lens. The device will be equipped with a silicon battery of approximately 6,000mAh and will support wireless charging. Additionally, it is anticipated to have an IPX8 rating for water resistance. When folded, the phone’s thickness is expected to be around 8.x mm, and the fibreglass variant will weigh approximately 21x grams.
Given that this device will feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, it is poised to be a successor to the Vivo X Fold 3 Pro, which had a folded thickness of 11.2mm and weighed 236 grams. Based on the latest leak, it appears that the X Fold 4 will be noticeably thinner and lighter compared to the X Fold 3 Pro. In the comments section of the Weibo post, a user inquired about the existence of a standard version of the X Fold 4. In reply, DCS confirmed that only one model will be available.

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.
