- OPPO continues to mock the OPPO find N5
- The phone will be the OnePlus Open 2 worldwide
- It’s significantly thinner than an iPad Pro
Oppo continues to tease the imminent arrival of the Oppo Find N5, which will likely be rebranded as the OnePlus Open 2 outside of China, and the latest bit of promotional material gives us more of an idea about how thin this foldable will be. .
OPPO President of Overseas Marketing Billy Zhang shared an image (via NotebookCheck) showing Oppo meeting N5 with the M4 iPad Pro launched by Apple in May 2024, and you can see the difference for yourself in thickness from front to back.
For comparison, the iPad Pro model in question is 5.1mm front to back, if we’re talking about the 13-inch version (which we assume is the case). The OPPO finds N5 (or OnePlus Open 2) is noticeably thinner than that when opened.
There has been a lot of speculation that the OnePlus Open 2 would make it the slimmest foldable but when does it appear. Considering the Honor Magic V3 is currently the thinnest foldable at 9.2mm when closed, so that’s the target to beat.
Updates all the way
I can’t believe how thin our latest foldable is. We’ve pushed our engineering to ensure an optimal experience, folded or unfolded, and I can’t wait for users to get their hands on it next month. #OPPOFINDN5 Pic.twitter.com/8J0zeo2GefJanuary 24, 2025
Oppo has previously shared promotional images showing the slimness of the upcoming foldable, and it certainly looks like a dial switch. We’ll have to wait and see if this has any impact on the mechanics and durability of the phone.
Being super slim could also affect the battery life offered by the OnePlus Open 2, although foldable phones at least have more surface area to accommodate battery packs, and the rumor is that this model will have an especially large battery.
We also expect the phone to come with improved waterproofing, and Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, which should mean a significant boost in performance for the first OnePlus foldable that launched in October 2023.
Head over to our OnePlus Open review and you’ll see that we’re big fans of the original OnePlus foldable, so we’re excited to see what comes next. No official release date has been announced, but Oppo has said it will be sometime in February.
