OPPO is redefining the foldable phone market with the Find N5, a device that pushes the boundaries of design and engineering. At 8.93mm when unfolded and weighing just 229g, this is one of the slimmest and lightest foldables available, making standard smartphones feel bulky by comparison. Officially launched on February 20th in Singapore, the Find N5 merges style and usability in a way that makes it as fitting for a luxury accessory spread as it is for a daily work tool.
Unboxing the Find N5 is an experience in itself. From the moment the packaging is opened, OPPO’s attention to detail is clear. “This is the packaging we just picked up from the production line,” the OPPO team explained, emphasizing the precision involved in each unit’s presentation. The box contains the phone alongside carefully chosen accessories, including a protective case and a data cable. “Take a closer look at the side—do you see it? The case can be opened and features a magnetic attachment system, providing enhanced protection for the hinge,” an OPPO representative noted.
The color selection was a major consideration. OPPO promised to deliver an immaculate white finish, and the Jade White variant lives up to that expectation. “As you can see, we promised to create a pristine white version,” the team confirmed. Inspired by sunlight reflecting off snow-capped mountains, this colorway required an advanced optical coating process to recreate the layered interplay of light and shadow. Unlike standard finishes, this treatment is costly and involves intricate techniques. Alongside Jade White, the Find N5 is available in Black with a silky-smooth crystalline texture that resists fingerprints and a Purple Leather variant that conveys a sense of mystery and business-class sophistication. “After extensive research and internal selection, we decided on this purple variant. It embodies a sense of mystery with a subtle business-like elegance,” the team added.

The hinge is another area of refinement. Engineered with 3D-printed titanium alloy, it maintains durability while allowing the phone to retain its slim profile. “Physically, we have achieved the industry’s thinnest foldable at 8.93mm while preserving the flat-edged frame aesthetic,” OPPO stated. The hinge also features a micro-brushed finish, lending a premium feel without being overly flashy. To maintain both a sharp-edged structure and a comfortable grip, a high-gloss treatment was applied to the edges. “We made sure that when holding it with either hand, the hinge wouldn’t dig into your palm, especially when using your left hand,” OPPO’s designers explained, ensuring long-term comfort.

Once unfolded, the Find N5 showcases its stunning displays. The outer screen measures 6.62 inches with a resolution of 1140 x 2616 pixels, offering crisp visuals and an intuitive interface. The inner foldable display expands to 8.12 inches, delivering a resolution of either 2480 x 2248 pixels or 2268 x 2440 pixels. Corning Gorilla Glass Victus protects both screens, ensuring durability while preserving elegance. “If you look at the Type-C port, you’ll notice a slight curvature in the design. Because we made the phone so thin, the Type-C port is almost flush with the back cover,” OPPO engineers shared. However, to ensure durability, the charging interface was reinforced to withstand over a million plug-in cycles.

Internally, the Find N5 is built for high performance. A 4.32GHz octa-core processor works alongside an Adreno GPU to provide seamless multitasking, gaming, and media consumption. With 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, it meets the expectations of a flagship device. Running on Android 15 with ColorOS 15, the software is optimized for the foldable format, offering split-screen functionality and intuitive navigation.
The camera system incorporates an all-new Ultra Light Shadow Triple Camera system. This setup consists of three 50MP lenses covering wide, telephoto, and ultrawide perspectives. “From the top view, the camera module is actually thicker than the phone’s body. But beyond keeping the body slim, we wanted the camera module to also look lightweight,” OPPO’s designers revealed. The first layer of the module uses a volcano crater-inspired aesthetic, followed by an aluminum alloy middle section and a titanium alloy topmost layer for a refined look.

Battery life remains a priority, with a 5000mAh capacity that supports long hours of use. The 120W fast-charging capability ensures rapid recharging, while 10W reverse charging allows users to power accessories such as wireless earbuds. While OPPO has not provided an official waterproof rating, the materials used suggest it can withstand light splashes and everyday handling.
Connectivity is robust, with dual-SIM functionality, Wi-Fi, NFC, GPS, and a USB-C port. The device supports an extensive range of LTE and 5G bands, making it suitable for international users. To maintain its sleek design, OPPO has omitted the headphone jack, a move that aligns with modern wireless audio trends.
Every aspect of the Find N5 was designed with usability in mind. “A foldable should feel natural. If it feels forced, it’s not good design,” OPPO emphasized. Thoughtful refinements such as smooth edge transitions and strategically placed curves ensure that the device remains comfortable in hand. Holding the device, whether in the left or right hand, has been optimized to prevent pressure points from forming over extended use.
The Find N5 fits effortlessly into settings where design matters. OPPO has positioned it as a device that suits luxury accessories, high-end stationery, and professional environments alike. It reflects both technical sophistication and modern design ideals without compromise.
For those looking for a blend of artistry and power, the Find N5 reflects OPPO’s design philosophy. Whether used in a business meeting or carried as a fashion-forward accessory, it remains a defining piece of modern mobile engineering.
