For the first time, the Green Factory launched two foldable phones in a row, including its first clamshell phone. The handset announced are two: the OPPO Find N2 and the OPPO Find N2 Flip: the former is a horizontal foldable phone, while the latter is a flip phone, as its name suggests. But besides the form factors, is there any other important difference between their specifications? The answer is yes, more than one. Here is a comparison between the main specifications of the OPPO Find N2 and the OPPO Find N2 Flip which will tell you these differences.

Design

As you can clearly see from the images, the form factors of these two foldable phones are completely different. The OPPO Find N2 is a horizontal foldable phone able to transform into a tablet while unfolded, while the OPPO Find N2 Flip is a clamshell foldable phone: a device that can cut its dimensions by half by folding. The most beautiful one is definitely the Flip variant because it is able to become extremely compact and it has a more elegant body. Further, it is one of the best phones for one-handed use and one of the best phones to bring with you in a pocket. So there is definitely no challenge, even though the vanilla N2 comes in a very good leather version.

Display

The winner of the display comparison is definitely the OPPO Find N2. It not only provides better image quality, but it also offers one of the biggest displays you can find on a phone. Its internal foldable panel has a diagonal of 7.1 inches (note that 7.1 inches with its aspect ratio are much wider than 7.1 inches of a normal phone) and it is able to show images with a resolution of 1792 x 1920 pixels. It is an AMOLED panel with LTPO technology that enables an adaptive refresh rate from 1 to 120 Hz and HDR10+ certification. On the external part of the phone, there is a 5.54-inch AMOLED display with a Full HD+ resolution and a 120 Hz refresh rate. The OPPO Find N2 Flip sports an AMOLED foldable display with a diagonal of 6.8 inches, a Full HD+ resolution, a 120 Hz refresh rate, and HDR10+ certification, while on the external part it has a small 3.26-inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 382 x 720 pixels able to show notifications, which can be also used to take selfies with the rear cameras.

Specs & Software

The hardware setups of these two phones are very close to each other. The OPPO Find N2 is powered by the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 mobile platform, while the Find N2 Flip has the Dimensity 9000+ chipset by Mediatek. They are the best chipsets by Qualcomm and Mediatek out there if we exclude the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and the Dimensity 9200 aimed at 2023 flagships. The processors are paired with up to 16 GB of RAM and up to 512 GB of native storage. Both phones run Android 13 out of the box, customized by ColorOS 13.

Camera

The OPPO Find N2 has definitely better cameras than the OPPO Find N2 Flip. Its rear camera setup includes a 50 MP Sony IMX890 main sensor with a 50 MP resolution and OIS, as well as a 32 MP telephoto lens for portraits with 2x optical zoom and a 48 MP ultrawide camera. The Flip is equipped with a 50 MP main camera and an 8 MP ultrawide lens: it does not even support OIS. Both phones come with a 32 MP selfie shooter, pretty good for everyone.

Battery

With the OPPO Find N2, you actually get a bigger battery, with a capacity of 4520 mAh. Further, it is quicker to charge thanks to 67W fast charging. However, the Flip variant is not so far, with its 4300 mAh battery and 44W fast charging.

Price

The starting price of the OPPO Find N2 Flip roughly translates into $848/€800 at the actual change, while the vanilla Find N2 starts from $1165/€1100 in China. The Flip is the only one heading to the global markets. Which one would you choose?
