This year, foldable smartphones may take center stage in the Indian smartphone market. Brands like Oppo, Xiaomi and OnePlus are expected to launch their foldable smartphones.
Samsung was the first company to launch a foldable smartphone globally as well as in India. Despite there being no competition in the market in the past few years, the demand for foldable smartphones has been low. This could change in 2023 as more brands are introducing their foldable phones.
“Not the first, but the best”: that’s what OPPO is claiming its flip phone to be. While Indian buyers will surely test that claim, interestingly, Oppo has solved some of the biggest issues related to foldable phones in the new Oppo Find N2 Flip. Here are three reasons why the OPPO Find N2 Flip could set the standard for flip phones in the market.
1. No-Gap Hinge Design: With Samsung being the only design reference point for flip phone buyers, the Oppo Find N2 Flip has improved the hinge design significantly. One of the key innovations is that when the screen is folded, there is no gap near the hinge area. This is important because the gap can trap dust, debris, coins, keys and other small objects on the screen when the device is folded and kept in a trouser pocket. Since users cannot apply another layer of third-party screen guard to protect the delicate foldable screen, this gap on the foldable screen can reduce the longevity of the device. The new no-gap hinge design solves this problem in the OPPO Find N2 Flip.
2. Very Few Creases: One of the major reasons why people do not want to spend a lot of money in buying a foldable smartphone is mainly because they do not want a clearly visible crease in the middle of the screen. The crease has long been a point of debate on Samsung’s foldable phones but this time Oppo has solved it by a big margin. The crease on the foldable screen of the OPPO Find N2 Flip is barely visible and cannot be felt while using it. Of course, we can’t really call it an “invisible crease” like Oppo is advertising but it’s a huge improvement compared to Samsung’s flip or fold smartphones. Rest assured, this crease will not be a problem for users of the OPPO Find N2 Flip.
3. Large Cover Display: The size of the cover display in foldables, especially in flip phones, is important simply because a large cover display means users have to open the device every time they want to check notifications, read messages, click selfies or use widgets. will not be required. Besides the convenience of a larger outdoor display, this will automatically increase the lifespan of the hinge and the delicate flexible screen. Compared to the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4, the OPPO Find N2 Flip offers a bigger screen and in a way sets a benchmark for other flip phones to be launched in the market.
These are the main reasons why the OPPO Find N2 Flip is a better device, but the company has packed it with a better Hasselblad camera, 80W charger inside the box with 44W fast charging, and better battery life than other foldables.
For Oppo, the new Find N2 flip could be a breakthrough device in the premium segment but the big question is- will Oppo as a brand be able to convince Indian buyers to spend their iPhone budget on this flip phone?
