A photo of the yet-to-be-announced horizontal clamshell OPPO Find N5 has appeared on the social network Weibo, which gives a general idea of the design of the future novelty. In addition, insiders accompanied the publication with an alleged list of characteristics of the device.
OPPO has started teasing key details of the Find N5 foldable smartphone. In the recent days, the device has emerged in leaked live images. The upcoming offering is touted to be the world’s thinnest foldable flagship thus potentially taking the crown from the Honor Magic V3 that debuted last year.
OPPO’s Product Manager for the Find series, Zhou Yibao shared images of the Find N5 showing its slim profile and comparing it with different things. Apart from this, the brand has also teased the IP ratings of the phone.
In the picture, the Find N5 is shown in black, and to the right of it is the Find N3 model. The smartphone can be viewed in more detail on the render from the Chinese insider Fixed Focus. Judging by the images, the lenses of the camera unit of the novelty will be located in the shape of a square, and not a cross, as in its predecessor. In addition, the gadget does not have a brand logo on the back panel – however, this can be attributed to the status of the prototype.
According to rumors, the novelty may become the thinnest foldable smartphone on the market (4 mm when opened, and about 9 mm when folded). Insiders also attribute to the device a titanium body with IPX8 protection, a 50 MP main camera, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite processor and a 5700 mAh battery with 50W magnetic wireless charging.

It will be powered by a 7-core Snapdragon 8 Elite processor coupled with 16GB RAM and run on Android 15 OS. The device scored 3,083 and 8,865 points in single-core and multi-core test results respectively.
Apart from the Chinese launch, the Find N5 is also heading to some Southeast Asian markets as the device already bagged multiple certifications.
