Oppo Find N3 China launch date has been set for next week, the Chinese company confirmed on Thursday (October 12). The handset will debut in other global markets on the same day alongside the clamshell Oppo Find N3 Flip. The Oppo Find N3 Flip is already available in China and will launch in India later today (October 12). The Oppo Find N3 will debut as a successor to last year’s Oppo Find N2. The book-style foldable smartphone could run on Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC.

The Oppo Find N3 will go official on October 19. The launch event will be held in China at 2:30pm local time (12:00am IST), as per a teaser poster shared (in Chinese) by the company on Weibo. The poster suggests that it will have a huge camera island on the back. As mentioned, Oppo has scheduled a global launch event for the Oppo Find N3 and Oppo Find N3 Flip on October 19 in Singapore. The event will be streamed live via the company’s YouTube channel. The Oppo Find N3 Flip is already available in China since August this year and will mark its India debut later today.

The upcoming Oppo Find N3 is confirmed to be quite similar to the OnePlus Open. However, the Pete Lau-led brand remains quiet about the release date of its first foldable.

Oppo Find N3 recently appeared on Geekbench with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC and 12GB RAM. It is expected to run on the Android 13 operating system. As per past leaks, it will feature a 7.82-inch (2,268 x 2,440 pixels) OLED inner display with a 120Hz refresh rate and a 6.31-inch (1,116 x 2,484 pixels) OLED outer screen with a 120Hz refresh rate.

Oppo Find N3 Flip India Launch Confirmed for October 12: All Details

Oppo India has officially confirmed that it’s next foldable, the Find N3 Flip, will be announced on October 12. The event will be streamed live on YouTube starting at 7PM IST. The Oppo Find N3 Flip marks the launch of the company’s second foldable in India, the previous one being the Find N2 Flip, which launched earlier this year. Oppo has confirmed some of the main specifications too and it seems like it’s similar to the one launched in China earlier this year. The only mystery left is the pricing, which should be above Rs. 90,000 considering all the upgrades.

Oppo Find N3 Flip specifications

Powering the Oppo Find N3 Flip is the MediaTek Dimensity 9200 SoC, which is based on the 2nd generation TSMC 4nm process. It consists of an ARM Cortex X3 core running at 3GHz, three Cortex-A715 performance cores, and four Cortex-A510 efficiency cores. The SoC features the MediaTek APU 690 to assist with AI tasks and ARM’s Immortalis-G715 GPU with support for hardware-based ray tracing.

The Find N3 Flip will have 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM, which is said to be 33 percent faster than previous generation LPDDR5. The main camera of the phone consists of a Sony IMX709 sensor along with a bunch of AI smarts. The foldable will have a 4,300mAh battery and support 44W SuperVOOC fast charging that promises a 100 percent charge in just 56 minutes. In terms of cooling, the Find N3 Flip is said to have a graphite layer and a “high-performance gel” that Oppo claims improves heat dissipation by 86 percent compared to the Find N2 Flip.

Other specifications, although not yet confirmed by Oppo India, should be similar to the variant launched in China. You can expect the Find N3 Flip to have a 6.8-inch folding display with a full-HD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. The outer display would most likely be 3.26 inches. In addition to the main camera, the phone should also have a 48-megapixel ultra-wide and a 32-megapixel portrait camera. It should also have a 32-megapixel selfie camera.

We’ll have to wait for the launch to know which storage variants and colours of the Oppo Find N3 Flip will make it to India. Pricing should also be revealed on October 12.

Oppo Teases Find N3 Flip, India Launch Rumoured to Take Place on October 12

Oppo India seems to be gearing up to launch its next foldable just seven months after its predecessor. The Oppo Find N3 Flip is not a brand-new smartphone but seems like an iterative update to its predecessor, the Oppo Find N2 Flip which was also launched in India earlier this year. Oppo seems to have settled for the vertical folding form factor for now, as OnePlus seems to be gunning for the horizontal foldables market with its upcoming offering called the OnePlus Open, which was officially unboxed after several leaks. While Oppo has yet to announce an official launch date for its Find N3 Flip in India, it has started to put out teasers for the same. Meanwhile, a tipster has also revealed a potential launch date.

After putting up two teaser videos revealing the foldable phone’s design and triple camera setup, Oppo is now running a contest to promote it. Winners can take part in a lucky draw that runs between October 3 and October 24 to win the Oppo Find N3 Flip or some Oppo audio accessories. Indeed, this hints at a launch that is set to happen within this time frame.

A few days prior, tipster Mukul Sharma (@stufflistings) also exclusively announced that the Oppo Find N3 Flip will “most likely” be launched on or by October 12. Meanwhile, Oppo’s latest post on X also has the foldable marked as “coming soon”, indicating that its launch is imminent.

The Oppo Find N3 Flip was launched in China on August 23, and it instantly became the first clamshell foldable to feature a triple rear camera setup. The smartphone was launched in three colours – Mirror Night (black), Mist Rose (pink) and Moonlight Muse (gold). Apart from the triple rear camera setup, which now includes a 32-megapixel telephoto camera, Oppo also went with a slightly bigger cover display, which measures 3.26 inches diagonally in the same vertical alignment as before, just that the new display is a bit wider than the one on the outgoing model.

In terms of core hardware, the phone is powered by a Dimensity 9200 SoC (a step up from the Dimensity 9000+), which is paired with 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage. The device has the usual connectivity options and a side-mounted fingerprint reader, which remains the same as before.

While we expect the core specifications of the global variant to be similar to the Chinese model, a recent leak also shed some light on app support on the cover display. The previous model, just like its then competitor the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 only supported a handful of widgets for native and third-party apps. This is expected to change with the global model, which, according to a [previous leak], is said to support a long list of third-party apps that also includes many from Indian services like Zomato, Swiggy, BookMyShow, mAadhar and more.

While the leaked image only shows a launcher on the cover screen with several apps pinned on it, it isn’t clear if the phone can run all of these apps on the cover screen itself. If it is capable of doing so, it will bring Oppo’s Find N3 Flip on par with Motorola’s Razr 40 Ultra, which so far is the only one to successfully pull off the same.
