On April 6th, the world’s thinnest foldable smartphone, the OPPO Find N5, officially launched in the Vietnamese market.
With its ultra-slim design, the largest internal display in its segment, impressive battery life, powerful performance, and groundbreaking AI features, the Find N5 is more than just a foldable phone; it’s a device that redefines the user experience in this category.
Slim and Light, Yet Large
One of the first impressions the OPPO Find N5 creates is its harmonious combination of a large display and an incredibly slim design. Unlike previous foldable phones that often struggled with thickness and weight, the Find N5 has overcome these limitations.
The OPPO Find N5 is currently the world’s thinnest foldable smartphone when closed, measuring just 8.93mm. Even when folded, its size is comparable to a typical bar phone, making it comfortable to hold and carry without feeling bulky.
Maintaining a light weight while featuring a large display, like the Find N5 does, demonstrates OPPO’s superior design and manufacturing capabilities. This slim and lightweight design provides a comfortable everyday experience, offering a pleasant feel both when open and closed, easily fitting in pockets.
The Find N5’s design prioritizes balance. The “Cosmic Ring” camera module on the back stands out while maintaining a balanced grip, preventing tilting or sliding.
The flat edges and metallic bezel not only add elegance but also enhance the secure grip. The Find N5’s meticulous design ensures no discomfort during extended use, a key factor for a comfortable grip and long-term usability.
When unfolded, the OPPO Find N5 boasts an 8.12-inch main display. This is the largest internal display among currently available foldable smartphones. This size offers a spacious viewing area for entertainment and work, even exceeding some popular tablet sizes on the market.
The Find N5’s external display also features a large 6.62-inch screen with a 20.7:9 aspect ratio, providing a familiar and comfortable experience similar to a traditional bar phone. This external display is large enough for smooth daily tasks such as browsing the web, sending emails, messaging, and typing on a virtual keyboard.
Clearly, the OPPO Find N5 successfully combines a large display, offering a tablet-like experience, with a slim, balanced design, ensuring comfort and high portability. This represents a significant advancement, addressing the size and weight limitations often found in previous foldable devices.
Durable Foldable Display
The durability of a foldable display and hinge mechanism is a top concern for foldable smartphone users. The OPPO Find N5 has made significant improvements to offer a durable and smooth foldable display, in addition to its large size.
The OPPO Find N5 is equipped with a new generation of titanium alloy hinge, 26% smaller but 36% stronger than the previous generation. This ensures superior folding durability. The hinge cover and wing are crafted from 5-grade Titanium alloy using 3D printing technology, guaranteeing precision and perfect fit.
Key stress-bearing components use OPPO’s custom UHSS super-strong steel, achieving a tensile strength of up to 2000 MPa, industry-leading, ensuring exceptional durability even after years of use. Real-world experience shows the Find N5’s hinge provides a secure and smooth folding experience, allowing users to fold and unfold at various angles without any jamming issues.
Importantly, the Find N5 also earned the TÜV Rheinland certification for its durable foldable display, one of the most stringent durability standards in the market.
The device has passed rigorous tests under various harsh conditions, including high temperature, high humidity, and dusty environments, demonstrating its endurance, even after 10 years of use with 100 fold/unfold cycles per day. This certification clearly demonstrates the durability and reliability of the Find N5’s folding mechanism.
Beyond mechanical durability, the Find N5’s display is protected by a flexible dual-layer screen protection, featuring nine layers. This includes a 0.1mm ultra-thin stainless steel support layer (the thinnest in the industry), ultra-thin glass, and a custom elastic shock-absorbing film on top.
This combination increases impact resistance by up to 70%. The outer display is further strengthened with super-durable nanocrystal glass, enhancing impact resistance by up to 20%.
An important aspect of the foldable display experience is the crease. The OPPO Find N5 has significantly reduced the crease on the main display.
With a faint, shallow, and narrow crease, the display offers a seamless experience without any interruptions. The Find N5 is also the first foldable smartphone to receive the “World’s Smoothest Fold” certification from TÜV Rheinland, further solidifying its leading position in the foldable smartphone industry.
Additionally, the OPPO Find N5 is the world’s first foldable smartphone to achieve IPX9 water resistance. In addition to the standard IPX8 water resistance, the device has demonstrated its ability to withstand high-pressure water jets even in extreme temperature conditions. The robust frame made from high-grade 7 series aluminum alloy, increasing durability by 30% compared to previous generations, providing better protection against impact.
Premium All-Around Experience
Beyond its impressive design and durability, the OPPO Find N5 delivers a premium all-around experience, eliminating the trade-offs often associated with previous foldable devices.
The Find N5 is the world’s first foldable phone featuring the Snapdragon® 8 Elite processor. This is the most powerful and stable processor currently available, manufactured on a 3nm process, offering superior performance, powerful AI capabilities, and energy efficiency. This chip integrates a Hexagon NPU, improving AI performance by up to 45%.
The Find N5 also boasts 16GB RAM and 512GB internal storage, ensuring smooth multitasking and ample storage space. The Find N5 functions exceptionally smoothly, accommodating all user needs, including demanding tasks such as video editing and AI processing, while generating minimal heat.
Furthermore, OPPO set a new benchmark for battery life in the foldable smartphone segment. Powered by two large 5,600mAh battery cells, the Find N5 not only meets all-day usage needs but also surpasses traditional smartphones. This impressive battery life stems from the new generation of Silicon-carbon batteries, enabling the battery to maintain superior capacity despite being only 2.1mm thin.
Unlike many foldable smartphones that often sacrifice charging speed, the Find N5 features both 80W wired and 50W wireless Super VOOC fast charging. These fast charging technologies allow users to use their device for hours with only a few minutes of charging.
The Find N5’s camera system is also significantly invested in, collaborating with Hasselblad for a professional mobile photography experience. This camera system delivers excellent image quality in various lighting conditions, with high detail, contrast, and balanced colors.
The Hasselblad portrait mode combined with 70mm optical zoom captures natural, sharp, and in-depth portrait photos with a distinct Hasselblad aesthetic. Furthermore, the Find N5 is the first foldable smartphone to enable super macro (telephoto macro camera) shots at a 10cm distance, creating a unique user experience.
The large display experience on the Find N5 is optimized with intelligent AI features and superior multitasking capabilities. Inheriting the Infinity Display technology from the Find N3, the Find N5 allows for three simultaneous app operations. The upgraded intelligent split-screen feature facilitates easier and more intuitive operation.
AI automatically identifies commonly used apps and suggests split-screen modes. The Find N5 is deeply integrated with AI for a smart and convenient experience across various aspects, including AI Search, AI Call Summary, Translation Applications, AI Note Taking Assistant, AI Tool Box, and AI Photo Editing. The device also integrates Google applications like Google Gemini and Search.
