Oppo wants to build its own Samsung Galaxy Z Flip competitor
Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip series of foldable phones is one of the company’s most popular foldables to date and it’s not hard to see why. While it isn’t exactly cheap by any means, it is more affordable than the Fold series, plus there’s that nostalgic factor that reminds us of the feature phones back in the day.
That being said, it seems that Oppo wants in on the action as well. According to a report from Weibo, apparently Oppo is looking to create its own version of the Samsung Flip series where it will feature an inner foldable display measuring 6.8-inches with a 2520×1080 resolution. It will also sport a 3.26-inch outer OLED screen.
Other rumored features include a 50MP Sony IMX766 camera, a 32MP Sony IMX709 ultrawide, and an 8MP Sony IMX355 camera. It is also rumored to feature a 4,300mAh battery, making it slightly bigger than what the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 is offering at the moment.
Take note that this isn’t Oppo’s first attempt at making foldables. The company previously launched the Oppo Find N which competed against the Samsung Fold series, so for them to consider a model that would compete with the Flip series actually makes sense. There’s no mention when this particular Oppo handset will be announced, so we’ll just have to wait and see.
