Everyone follows Samsung: OPPO is about to launch a folding screen smartphone like the Galaxy Z Flip3 but at a cheaper price

Although it is revealed that it has been researching folding screen smartphones for more than 4 years, OPPO has only entered this field since the OPPO Find N was launched in mid-December. OPPO Find N has achieved certain successes in the technology world when it has an optimal design for use, a screen that minimizes wrinkles and has a reasonable price. This machine is constantly sold out in the Chinese market.

According to a new source from 91mobiles, OPPO is ambitious to launch a new folding screen smartphone with a clamshell design similar to the Galaxy Z Flip3. This machine is expected to be introduced somewhere around the third quarter of this year. The name has not been revealed, but we can be sure that this device will be launched by OPPO under the Find series brand.

In addition, the expected price for the OPPO clamshell folding screen is also expected to be much cheaper than the Galaxy Z Flip3.

Everyone learns from Samsung

Just a short time ago, Huawei launched the P50 Pocket, a folding screen smartphone that also has the same clamshell design as the Z Flip3, showing that manufacturers are tending to “learn”. Samsung. Samsung itself has been a pioneer in the field of folding screens from the very beginning.

The Galaxy Fold launched in 2019 marked a big step forward in this area. The proof is that at the present time, all folding screen smartphones launched by any brand share the same design with the first Galaxy Fold. Even Huawei with the design of the screen that folds out on the Huawei Mate X has had to switch to an inward-folding style similar to how Samsung does. And now OPPO Find N, Honor Magic V or Xiaomi Mi MIX Fold also use this design because this is the design that has proven to be the most optimal for folding smartphones.

In the future, we will also see many variants of folding screen smartphones. Recently at the CES 2022 event, Samsung also showed off a 2-fold foldable device called Flex S, showing that in the future folding screen tablet devices may own this design.
