Oppo’s Find N5, which is set to launch in February, is touted as the world’s thinnest foldable phone. The thickness of the device is said to be less than 9.2mm in the folded state. However, a new Weibo post from well-known tipster Digital Chat Station reveals that it won’t be the lightest foldable phone.
Oppo Find N5 may weigh under 230 grams
Launched last year and exclusively available in the Chinese market, the Vivo X Fold 3 which weighs 219 grams is the world’s lightest foldable phone. The above Weibo post suggests that it will not be able to dethrone the X Fold 3 to snatch the title of the lightest foldable phone.
Nevertheless, the Find N5, which is expected to pack a 5,700mAh battery, could be lighter than the Find N3, which weighs 239 grams and packs a smaller 4,805mAh battery. Recently, a Weibo user asked Oppo Find Product Manager Zhau Yibao whether the Find N5’s weight would be controlled within 230 grams. Yibao’s playful response implies that the N5 could potentially fall below the 230-gram threshold, positioning it as a strong contender for the title of the lightest foldable crown.
Coming back to DCS’ Weibo post, he has also revealed that the Find N5 will continue to feature a side-facing fingerprint sensor like the N3. It will have a flat design for internal and external screens.
Under the hood, the Find N5 will feature the 7-core Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset. It will arrive with support for 80W wired and 50W wireless charging. On the photography front, the device will have a triple camera setup, which will include a periscope telephoto camera.
In terms of the design, the Find N5 will have a 3D-printed titanium alloy hinge and offer IPX6, X8, and X9 levels of water resistance. The standard version of the device has the PKH110 model number. It is also said to have a satellite communication version with the PKH120 model number.
