OPPO VP Brian Shen has today shared fresh images of a mysterious OPPO phone that features a dual-edge curved screen with one of the largest curves seen on a smartphone display ever. The images show that the smartphone offers a very high screen-to-body ratio thanks to its tall aspect ratio display. Also, whats marvelous about the display of the mysterious OPPO smartphone is that its left and right edges curve at 88-degree. The new display design is dubbed as ‘Waterfall Screen.’
When viewed from the front, the new OPPO phone with Waterfall Screen does not seem to feature any side borders. It appears to offer a screen space of nearly 100 percent as it is equipped with ultrathin and symmetrical upper and lower bezels.
One of the images that show the new OPPO phone with Waterfall Screen held along with the Find X flagship phone from last year Probably, the smartphone could be offering a tall aspect ratio of 21:9 like the Xperia 1. The images and video of the phone also shows that it is equipped with a slim body.
The curvature on the phone is more pronounced than the ones found on flagship phones from Samsung, Huawei and OnePlus 7 Pro. Recently, a Chinese leakster had revealed that OPPO’s sibling brand Vivo is reportedly working on Vivo NEX 3 with extremely curved display design.
There is no front camera on the mysterious OPPO with Waterfall Screen. The slimness of the phone suggests that it could be equipped with OPPO’s under-display camera technology that was showcased at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2019 Shanghai tech trade show in June. Under-display camera technology is all about embedding the camera beneath the top portion of the display which remains invisible while using the device and appears only when the front camera is accessed.
Since the Chinese manufacturer has started teasing the new OPPO phone with Waterfall Screen early in the second half of the year, the company may debut it in the next few months. As of this writing, there is no other information available on its specifications.
