Last December, Oppo unveiled the Find N, a foldable smartphone built around a 7.1-inch foldable display.

It stands out thanks to a quality 120 Hz screen, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 SoC with 12 GB of RAM and 33-watt Super VOOC charging.
Shortly after its release, the Find N was showered with praise. The specialized press was charmed by the alternative offered by the Chinese brand.

The terminal was even elected best Android smartphone of the MWC 2022 by the jury of the Global Mobile Awards, one of the most prestigious distinctions in the mobile telephony sector.
Samsung finds the Oppo Find N amazing
To everyone’s surprise, Samsung also praised Oppo’s foldable smartphone on his Twitter account. The official Samsung Mobile US account reacted to a video showing the Find N with these words: “Pretty amazing!”. The message is punctuated with enthusiastic emojis.
The account was reacting to footage posted by Ryan Fenwick, a member of the global communications team for Oppo and OnePlus. The framework was for “all recent comments suggesting today’s Android smartphones are all the same and boring”.
