In November this year, the Oppo Reno 9 series made its debut in China, and this month saw the arrival of the Find N2 and Find N2 Flip foldable phones in the home market. A recent leak claimed that the Find N2 Flip will be released on the global market in 2023. A new report by Pricebaba has revealed the launch timeframe of the Reno 9 series as well as Find N2 Flip for the Indian market.
According to the publication, Oppo has started testing the Reno 9, Reno 9 Pro, and Find N2 Flip in India. The report also states that the three devices should make their debut in India by the end of Q1.
Unfortunately, the report does not say anything about the specifications of the Reno 9, 9 Pro, and N2 Flip for the Indian market. The specifications of their Chinese editions are known since they are already available for purchase in China.
The Reno 9 series has the Reno 9 Pro+, which is powered by the low-frequency version of the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1. At present, there is no evidence on whether the Reno 9 Pro+ as well as the Find N2 will be made available in markets outside of China.
The Reno 8 featured the Dimensity 1300, while the Reno 9 is equipped with the Snapdragon 778G. We found it be a boring phone as it offers little to no upgrades over the Reno 8. Hence, it remains to be seen whether the same device will be heading to India.
Samsung is the only brand offering a clamshell phone with a foldable display in markets outside of China. The Huawei P50 Pocket flip phone with foldable screen is also available outside of China. However, its availability is limited to Europe. Hence, the OPPO Find N2 Flip, which is expected to get a wider release, will be a major rival for the Galaxy Z Flip 4 or the Galaxy Z Flip 5, which is expected to release in August 2023. The N2 Flip is likely to be priced lower than Samsung’s Z Flip.
