OPPO has officially launched the OPPO Find N5, a thin and lightweight foldable smartphone with a large inner display, durable design, and AI-powered features. It is available in Cosmic Black and Misty White, with pricing and availability varying by region.
Why it matters: OPPO aims to push the boundaries of foldable technology by introducing a book-style foldable with a slim design, improved durability, and advanced AI tools for multitasking, photography, and cross-device integration.
The OPPO Find N5 measures just 8.93mm thick when closed and weighs 229g, making it one of the thinnest and lightest foldable smartphones. It features aerospace-grade materials, including a 7000-series aluminum alloy frame and ultra-durable nanocrystal glass for added drop resistance. The Titanium Flexion Hinge is 26% smaller yet 36% more rigid than its predecessor. OPPO used Grade 5 titanium alloy and ultra-high-strength steel to make the hinge both lightweight and durable.
This hinge design ensures a minimal crease on the foldable display. OPPO has also received TÜV Rheinland’s Minimized Crease Certification, confirming the screen remains smooth over long-term use.
The phone also boasts an IPX9 water resistance rating, meaning it can withstand water jets at extreme temperatures. This makes it the first foldable device with such protection, adding to its durability for everyday use.
The Find N5’s inner display measures 8.12 inches, making it the largest screen in any book-style foldable. The cover display is 6.62 inches with a 20.7:9 aspect ratio, providing a familiar smartphone experience when folded. Both screens support 1-120Hz adaptive refresh rates, 2160Hz PWM dimming for reduced eye strain, and over 2000 nits peak brightness for HDR content. The device also supports the OPPO Pen, making it useful for note-taking and digital art.
The OPPO Find N5 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, which includes a Hexagon NPU with 45% better AI performance. This helps with faster AI-driven photography, productivity tools, and power efficiency.
AI features include:
- AI Search: Finds files, apps, and settings instantly
- AI Call Summary: Transcribes and summarizes calls
- AI Eraser: Removes unwanted objects from photos
- AI Clarity Enhance: Improves low-resolution images
OPPO has also introduced dual-screen translation, which allows real-time translations when the phone is partially folded, making it a helpful tool for travelers.
The Find N5 features a Hasselblad Master Camera System with three sensors:
- 50MP wide camera (f/2.0) with OIS
- 50MP ultra-wide camera (f/2.2)
- 50MP periscope telephoto camera (f/2.7) with OIS and 2x optical zoom
The periscope lens supports telephoto macro photography, allowing users to focus on objects just 10cm away. The Hasselblad Portrait Mode offers a natural depth effect, while Dolby Vision 10-bit video recording supports 4K at 60fps.
The Find N5 packs a 5600mAh dual-cell battery, which OPPO claims provides the best battery life among foldable smartphones. It uses OPPO Silicon-Carbon Battery technology, which increases energy density while maintaining a thin design. It also supports 80W SUPERVOOC wired charging and 50W AIRVOOC wireless charging. With an OPPO magnetic case, it also enables fast wireless charging with magnetic mounting support.
OPPO also introduces O+ Connect for Mac, allowing wireless file transfers and remote control of Mac computers. Users can access files remotely or control their Mac interface from the Find N5, improving cross-device productivity. The phone also supports Touch to Share, making file transfers between OPPO and iOS devices easier.
