With the rapid development of the era of science and technology, the screen size of mobile phones has gradually increased with the needs of users and the market, but this will also lead to the problem of inconvenient carrying, so folding screen mobile phones have gradually occupied the high-end market from the beginning of the niche, however, whether folding screen mobile phones are practical, there are still many controversies, but it is undeniable that with the development of technology, the reliability and durability of folding screens have been greatly improved.
For example, the OPPO Find N3, which has broken through the industry's millions of foldable times, has recently exposed OPPO's folding screen mobile phone patent, and applied for a utility model patent called "hinge assembly" in June 2022, let's take a look.
For folding screen mobile phones, the real test of the manufacturer's technology lies in the "hinge". In 2015, OPPO had a patent application similar to a drop-shaped hinge, and the first-generation folding screen OPPO Find N was equipped with its self-developed drop-shaped hinge, which became the folding screen model with the shallowest crease and lightest weight among the large folding screens at that time.
Of course, OPPO has not stopped moving forward, and the Find N3 launched this year uses a new aviation alloy Seiko pseudovertebral hinge, which can be folded one million times, becoming the first model to break through one million folds, and it is also the only flagship folding screen mobile phone that can be folded more than one million times. In addition, thanks to the smaller hinge technology and "folded pixel" technology, the Find N3 is equipped with a double-layer transistor stacked ultra-large bottom sensor, which achieves a significant improvement in low-light shooting ability, comparable to the effect of a one-inch outsole.
In addition to the product strength that stands out among the large folding models, the Find N3 Flip also innovatively adopts a double-layer coupling enhancement technology, which allows the mobile phone to form a new antenna system in the folded state, providing users with an excellent communication experience. At the same time, the OPPO Find N3 Flip is also equipped with a self-developed smart antenna switching system 2.0, which can select the network with the best signal according to the holding posture and use environment.
As a global international mobile phone manufacturer, OPPO has always adhered to independent innovation, according to public information, as of September 30, 2023, OPPO has applied for more than 95,000 patents worldwide, including more than 86,000 invention patent applications, and invention patent applications account for more than 90% of all patent applications, making it one of the world's largest patent holders. It can be seen that OPPO's innovation strength and patent accumulation are very deep, and it is no wonder that it can continue to launch products with amazing product power.
It is not difficult to see that OPPO has not stopped on the road of independent research and development, and even strides forward, I believe that in the coming days, OPPO will bring more innovative and practical products or technologies through its accumulated rich patented technology, you may wish to wait and see.
