The next folding from the Chinese company Oppo, FindN5, is set to make its official debut next month in China. This device will bring with it several improvements over the Find N3, launched in 2023.
Oppo Find N5 caught in first live photo
Now, while the company has started teasing the arrival of the N5 in China, it has yet to fully reveal the design of the device. Well, a leaked photo, now circulating on Chinese social media, offers a first look at the rear design of the phone. However, while the photo does show the camera setup, the full look remains a mystery as the device is still wrapped in a confidential case.
The leaked photo shows the Find N5 in a case that hides its design. Despite this, the device appears to have a round camera module, similar to recent Find series phones. The module houses three cameras, a hole for a microphone, and an LED flash.
The IMEI number 867775079874260 mentioned on the back of the phone matches the model number “PKH120” in the IMEI database, which was previously spotted in China's UFCS database. The listing revealed that the PKH120 has a battery 5.475mAh (nominal value), which indicates that the typical value could be around 5.600mAh.
The PKH120 was initially thought to be the Find X8 Mini, but it now appears to be the Find N5 foldable phone. The radio certification of this device has revealed that it will come with support for satellite connectivity. The PKH110 is the other variant of the phone that does not support satellite connectivity.
The Find N3 featured a 4.805mAh battery and measured 5,8mm when unfolded and 11,7mm when folded. Despite a larger battery of around 5.600mAh, the Find N5 is set to become the world’s thinnest foldable phone, measuring just 4mm when unfolded and less than 9mm when folded. Another selling point of the N5 is that it will be the world’s first foldable phone to feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset.
We can say that the Oppo Find N5 promises to be a revolutionary device in the world of foldable phones, combining an elegant and thin design with high-level performance. We just have to wait for the first official information.
