At the OPPO Find N3 global launch event on the afternoon of October 19, OPPO Find N3 launched a new folding screen phone, claiming to "inspire a new generation of mobile imaging". OPPO Find N3 Standard Edition (12GB+512GB) launched three new fuselage colors: Qianshan Green, Submarine Black and Log Gold, with a price of 9999 yuan; At the same time, OPPO also released the first collector's edition mobile phone, OPPO Find N3 Collector's Edition (16GB+1TB, exclusive VIP mode), priced at 12999 yuan.
In terms of appearance, the OPPO Find N3 has a solid body line, adopts a classic circular lens module design, the body is only 5.8mm thick when unfolded, and 11.7mm thick when folded, the weight of the glass version is 245 grams, and the leather version is 239 grams, and it is available in 3 new body colors: Thousand Hills Green, Log Gold, and Submariner Black.
Compared to the previous two generations, the Oppo Find N3 has changed quite significantly in terms of appearance.
First of all, OPPO Find N3 no longer uses the previous "wide and fat" body, the ratio of the outer screen has changed from the previous 17.7:9 to the current 20:9, and the size of the outer screen has also increased from 5.54 inches to 6.3 inches, so the entire body appears more slender in the folded state.
Secondly, the Find N3's back cover, middle frame, and outer screen all adopt a "flat" design, and the high-brightness aluminum alloy middle frame looks sharper. One side of the outer screen is also no longer designed with a micro-curved surface, and the transition between the middle frame and the matte glass back cover is almost "flat".
The Find N3's power button, fingerprint recognition, and volume buttons are all located on the same side of the body's middle frame, while on the other side is a three-section mute button with a diamond-cut "diamond texture".
This clean design language makes the Find N3 look very pure, highlighting its high-end business attributes, and to put it bluntly, it looks more upscale (and of course more expensive). The third noticeable change is the huge, circular camera module on the back that is hard to ignore.
Officially, it is known as the "Universal Design" that "pays homage to classic chronographs", and each camera has a concentric circle texture on the outside. On the right side of the periscope, the classic Hasselblad sigil appears with an "H" sign. The ring flash is designed on the outside of the module and is wrapped in high-gloss metal for a certain decorative aesthetic.
In terms of screen, the OPPO Find N3 uses a dual diamond screen inside and outside, with a dynamic peak brightness of 2800 nits on both the inner and outer screens, and is equipped with ProXDR display technology, which increases the dynamic range by 8 times. The high-transmittance display technology not only achieves higher light transmittance, but also saves 30% of electrical energy.
Specifically, the inner screen of the new machine is a 7.8-inch, 2440×2268 AMOLED flexible inner screen, supporting 120Hz refresh rate (LTPO), screen ratio of 6:5.6, full-screen peak brightness of 1400 nits, local excitation brightness up to 2800 nits, support ProXDR 8x dynamic range excitation, 1440Hz high-frequency PWM, 10-bit color depth, and ultra-thin UTG glass. The size of the outer screen is 6.31 inches, and it uses super ceramic crystalline glass, which supports 5 times the drop resistance and 17 times the impact resistance.
As for the hinge, the hinge of the OPPO Find N3 has reduced the number of parts by nearly one-third, and uses aviation-grade high-strength steel and integrated zirconium alloy liquid metal, which not only reduces weight, but also makes the hinge more flat and stable. In the test of TÜV Rheinland laboratory in Germany, the Find N3 led the folding phone to break through the million fold test for the first time.
In terms of performance, the Oppo Find N3 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 mobile processing platform, equipped with LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.0 flash memory, while supporting dual-axis graphite cooling technology. The Oppo Find N3 also comes with a 4805mAh battery that supports 67W fast charging technology, which can be fully charged in just 42 minutes. In addition, the original intelligent high-penetration antenna greatly improves the signal strength. In addition, the OPPO Find N3 also introduces an original multi-speaker system, equipped with stereo triple speakers (two AAC 1112E master speakers on the top and 1115E on the bottom), which can achieve stereo sound effect whether it is placed horizontally or vertically, and also supports private calls.
In terms of photography, the official said that the OPPO Find N3 "opens a new era of mobile imaging", and its ultra-light and shadow folding pixel wide-angle, ultra-light periscope telephoto and 48 million pixel ultra-wide angle are leading the industry.
In terms of specific configuration, the OPPO Find N3 has a 48MP main camera on the rear (Sony LYT-T808, sensor size is 1/1.43 inch, using dual-layer transistor pixel technology, light sensitivity has been increased by 20%, and dynamic range has been increased by 355%) + 48MP ultra-wide angle camera (Sony IMX581, sensor size is 1/2 inch) + 64MP periscope telephoto camera (OmniVision OV64B, sensor size is 1/2 inch). In addition, the Find N3 inherits the computational photography capabilities of the Find X6 series, equipped with a new generation of ultra-light and shadow image engine, which can more accurately represent details, colors, and light and shadow.
It is worth mentioning that for the first time, Find N3 is equipped with a security chip with national secret level 2 authentication, which can provide chip-level protection for biological information such as fingerprints, privacy documents and mobile phone passwords. In terms of system, OPPO Find N3 supports four major functions: file can be opened at will, portable workbench, file any door, and super vision panoramic virtual screen.
In addition, OPPO Find N3 also launched a collector's edition, which provides two colors: Chibi Danxia and Submarine Black, and excludes 16G+1TB large storage version. In addition, it also enjoys the exclusive VIP mode, which can open the security lock with one click, immediately turn off the camera, microphone and positioning permissions, and the security chip encrypts these sensitive permissions again, realizing double hardware-level privacy and security protection. Other configuration aspects are the same as those of the regular version.
