Oppo is apparently working on a new smartphone that features a flexible display. But this model doesn’t feature a foldable screen like the Find N2 and the Find N2 Flip, rather it features a rollable display panel. So let’s have a look.

The Chinese smartphone maker’s rollable display features some notable design elements. The new patent was spotted by 91Mobiles who spotted the document on CNIPA. While this isn’t the first time we have seen a smartphone with a rolling display. With this new display technology, users can change the form factor of the device with a single touch, which is different from the foldable smartphones that are sold in the market right now.

The patent carries a basic description of the product along with design sketches of this upcoming smartphone. Here, we can see that the device appears to have a camera module on the rear with an LED flash. Although, this module is housed between two parts of the rear panel, which is joined together with the rollable display and its supporting structure. However, there is no selfie camera on the front, or any visible cutouts to house such a sensor. So it is possible that the rollable smartphone may feature an under display camera.

Apart from this, finer details regarding this futuristic Oppo device like its specifications are still unknown. Other notable design details include, volume rockers and the power button on the right side, with a USB Type C port and speaker grille found at the bottom. Keep in mind that this is still just a patent and it is unclear if the company is actually working on such a smartphone at the moment. So stay tuned for more updates.
