A statement from Pete Lau, SVP and Chief Product Officer, OPPO gives folks an idea of what to expect with the Find N2 Flip:

This is accompanied by an 8MP ultrawide camera, as well as a 32MP Sony IMX709 selfie camera for video calls and such. Of course, OPPO has also equipped the phone with its MariSilicon X imaging NPU, which it says can boost low-light performance.
