OPPO Find N5 Launched as the World’s Slimmest Foldable Smartphone and First to Use the Snapdragon 8 Elite Chip

Oppo has taken the lead in the race for the slimmest foldable phone with its new Find N5. As the successor to the Find N3, it improves in many areas, especially design. When unfolded, it measures just 4.21mm thick and 8.93mm when folded, making it the thinnest book-style foldable available.

The Oppo Find N5's slimness is achieved through a Titanium Flexion Hinge, which is 26% smaller than its predecessor's hinge but offers better rigidity. The phone weighs only 229 grams due to a combination of a 3D-printed titanium wing panel and carbon fibre materials.

Design and Display Features

The phone's frame is crafted from 7000 series aluminium, ensuring durability while maintaining a lightweight structure. It also boasts an IPX6, IPX8, and IPX9 water resistance rating, making it resistant to pressurised hot water jets and submersion.

The main display is an 8.12-inch LTPO OLED screen with FHD+ resolution and an adaptive refresh rate ranging from 1 to 120Hz. It features a 9.9:9 aspect ratio and can reach up to 2,100 nits peak brightness. The outer screen measures 6.62 inches with similar specifications but achieves up to 2,450 nits brightness.

Camera System and Other Specifications

In terms of photography, the Find N5 includes three cameras developed with Hasselblad's expertise. The main camera is a 50MP Sony LYT-700 sensor with OIS and a focal range equivalent to 21mm. It is complemented by a 50MP Samsung JN5 periscope lens offering 3x optical zoom and an 8MP ultrawide lens with autofocus.

The device runs on Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite processor but uses a binned version with one less performance core. It comes with 16GB RAM and offers 512GB storage as the sole option for international markets. Oppo's ColorOS 15 based on Android 15 powers the device, promising four years of Android updates and six years of security patches.

The battery capacity stands at 5,600 mAh, supporting both wired (80W SuperVOOC) and wireless (50W AirVOOC) charging. The Oppo Find N5 will be available in Cosmic Black, Misty White, and Dusk Purple colours; however, Dusk Purple will be exclusive to China.
