Oppo has been working on foldables for quite some time now. Ever since we first saw Oppo’s foldable phone back in 2019, the company has teased and showcased other foldable form factors such as the Oppo Slide Phone prototype.
Oppo’s first foldable phone will have approximately a 7.8 to 8-inch 2K OLED display with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. In response to a user’s query, Digital Chat Station says that Oppo’s foldable display will be similar to Huawei’s Mate X2. That essentially means that the display will fold inwards, much like what you get on Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold series.
Oppo’s foldable will feature a side-mounted fingerprint scanner and run Android 11 out of the box. Judging by the usage of Android 11 and Snapdragon 888, we could expect Oppo to unveil the foldable before the end of this year. Unfortunately, the company hasn’t shared an exact launch timeline for its entry into the world of foldable phones.
