Folding machines are considered to be an innovative form of smartphones in the 5G era, which is more convenient for watching 5G applications such as videos. Huawei, Samsung and other mobile phone companies have previously launched several generations of folding screen mobile phones, but the product positioning is niche and the price is also higher. For ordinary users, the folding experience of the folding machine is not perfect, there are fewer applications, coupled with high prices, it will not be easy to try.
However, digital enthusiasts gave good feedback to OPPO Find N, and the new machine information was once on the Weibo hot search list.

With the gradual improvement of the folding machine and the price decline, there are more and more folding machine users.
According to a latest research report released by the screen agency DSCC, in the third quarter of this year, the total shipments of folding screen mobile phones increased by 215% month-on-month and soared by 480% year-on-year. In terms of brands, Samsung's shipment share is as high as 93%, followed by Huawei's 6%, and the two almost temporarily monopolize this special track.
According to DSCC's estimates, the shipment of folding screen mobile phones will increase from 2.6 million units to 4 million units in the fourth quarter. In terms of the whole year, although this year's shipments are less than 10 million units, next year's shipments are expected to be close to 20 million units.
Hinges have always been a technical difficulty for folding machines. OPPO said that the self-developed Seiko pseudo-vertebral hinge technology contains 136 components and the processing accuracy reaches 0.01mm. With the help of the delicate mechanical structure, the screen can form a natural water droplet shape when bending, which effectively reduces visual creases. Certified by the German Rheinland Laboratory, compared with the traditional folding screen hinge scheme, OPPO Find N reduces visual creases by up to 80%, and is currently the folding screen mobile phone with the lightest creases.
In addition, in order to improve reliability, OPPO Find N screen adopts a new 12-layer composite structure design scheme, in which the customized stainless steel substrate design can effectively support the flexible screen.
At present, OPPO Find N has been adapted to large screens for commonly used applications such as WeChat, Douyin, and Youku. In addition, the machine can multitask in a split-screen state. OPPO Find N has a variety of multi-window management modes such as two-finger split screen and four-finger floating screen.
OPPO Find N is equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 mobile platform, built-in 4500mAh battery; 8+256GB is priced at 7699 yuan, 12+512GB is priced at 8999 yuan, and reservations are accepted from now on.
