Oppo Find N3: The foldable smartphone market is still developing and Oppo’s most recent release, the Find N3, reflects how much things have changed.
Picking up where it left off, this third-generation foldable from the Chinese phone maker aims to solve many of the same teardown woes of folding phones, and some additional refinements to make it a more tantalizing prospect to tech junkies.

Unlike so many of those devices that feel like tech experiments, the Find N3 manages to find that magic balance between innovation and pragmatism.
Even when closed, the device keeps a more sensible 5.8-inch cover display with almost normal smartphone aspect ratio, so one-handed use is still comfortable and intuitive.
This solves one of the most persistent criticisms of the competition: that other foldables feel unwieldy when closed.
When the Find N3 is opened up, you’re greeted by a generous 7.8-inch inner screen, which makes the phone feel more like a tiny tablet with some awkward dimensions than a full-fledged smartphone.
The crease isn’t as hard as earlier versions, though it’s still slight visible when the light hits it a certain way.
This hinge action works smooth, and allows for the iPad to be set at many viewing angles, to free your hands.
The Photography Is Second To None
Traditionally, foldable handsets have been forced to accept a compromise in camera capabilities for form factor, but Oppo’s work with Hassleblad sees a camera system that can rival the high end.
It’s headlined by a 50MP main sensor with a killer dynamic range, 48MP ultrawide snapper to capture dramatic landscapes and a 64MP telephoto that delivers 3x optical zoom.
This high-end camera software takes advantage of Oppo’s ProXDR technology to shoot and show HDR content that looks amazing on the vibrant displays.
The Hasselblad partnership shines on portrait mode, where shots of people look their best, with realistic skin tones and a pleasing blur (bokeh) effect that doesn’t have the artificial look of smartphone shots.
Performance and Battery Life
The Find N3 is a multitasking monster thanks to Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor and 16GB of RAM.
It never feels restricted being able to run multiple apps at once on the spacious inner display, and the phone keeps cool even during long stretches of gaming.
Battery life has been a weak spot for foldables, but the Find N3’s 4,800mAh battery is often good for an entire day of mixed use.
The 67W SuperVOOC charging tops the battery up from empty to 50% in just about 20 minutes and the 50W wireless charging provides convenience without too much compromise in terms of speed.
Software: Embracing the Fold
ColorOS 14 (based on Android 14) for the next Oppo phone gets special attention too, thanks to smart folding form factor optimizations.
FlexForm Mode transforms apps to take advantage of the partially folded position, effectively turning the device into its own stand for video calls or capturing photos.
The split-screen multitasking is easily the most intuitive of the lot and the drag-drop between compatible apps just makes sense.

Oppo Find N3: The Verdict
The Oppo Find N3 is a huge leap forward for foldables and covers off many of the practical concerns which have held many people back so far.
Yeah, some will turn their noses up at the high price, but for those prepared to splash the cash the Note 9 proves to be a handset that strikes a perfect balance between all that’s shiny and new in phone tech and what we actually need in a phone.
It’s not just a tech demo, it’s an actually practical device that happens to bend, and it shows the category potentially graduating from its awkward adolescence.
