- Oppo continues to tease the Oppo Find N5
- The phone will be the OnePlus Open 2 worldwide
- It is significantly thinner than an iPad Pro
Oppo continues to tease the imminent arrival of the Oppo Find N5 – which will most likely be renamed as the OnePlus Open 2 outside of China – and the latest snippet of promotional material gives us more of an idea of how this foldable will be thin will be .
Oppo President of Overseas Marketing Billy Zhang shared an image (via NotebookCheck) showing the Oppo Find N5 against the M4 iPad Pro Apple is launching in May 2024 – and you can see for yourself the difference 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 when opened.
There has been a lot of speculation that the OnePlus Open 2 would indeed be the thinnest foldable yet when it appears. Considering the Honor Magic V3 is currently the thinnest foldable at 9.2mm when closed, so this is the target to beat.
Improves 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 already shared promotional images showing how thin the upcoming foldable is, and it certainly looks like a record. We’ll have to wait and see if this impacts the mechanics and durability of the handset.
Being super thin could also affect the battery life offered by the OnePlus Open 2, although foldable phones at least have more surface area to fit batteries in – and rumor is that this model will have a particularly large battery.
We also expect the handset to come with improved waterproofing, and Qualcomm’s Elite Snapdragon 8 chipset, which should mean a significant performance boost for the first OnePlus foldable which 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. An official launch date hasn’t been announced, but Oppo has said it will happen sometime in February.
