Oppo is gearing up to unveil the Find N5 foldable smartphone in just a few weeksand industry insiders believe it will get a global rebrand as the OnePlus Open 2. But the real buzz? Its incredible thinness.
According to a trusted tipster on Xthe Find N5 (and OnePlus Open 2) will be just 4.2mm thick when unfolded—making it the slimmest single-fold foldable ever made.
To put this into perspective:
Oppo Find N5 / OnePlus Open 2: 4.2mm when unfolded
Honor Magic V3 (Current Thinnest Book-Type Foldable): 4.35mm
Huawei Mate XT: 3.6mm (but it’s a tri-fold device)
Oppo Find N3 (Previous Generation): 5.8mm
This means Oppo and OnePlus are pushing the boundariesmaking their foldable as thin as a regular smartphone when folded.
Why does this matter? Because one of the biggest challenges with foldable adoption has been bulkiness. If the Find N5 and Open 2 feel just like normal slab phones when closedmainstream users may finally start considering foldables as their daily drivers.
Processor: Snapdragon 8 Elite (a new seven-core CPU)
Charging: 50W wireless charging
Water Resistance: IPX6, IPX8, and IPX9 ratings
Camera System: Expected to feature Hasselblad-tuned sensors
Battery Life: Optimized for all-day performance
While Oppo has not officially confirmed the exact launch datethe Find N5 is expected to debut in China within weeksfollowed by a global launch as the OnePlus Open 2.
Will it be affordable?
The biggest factor in making foldables mainstream is price. If Oppo/OnePlus can significantly lower the cost while keeping premium hardwarethis could be one of the most important foldable releases of 2025.
Thinner than ever before – No more bulky foldables!
Cutting-edge hardware – Top-tier chipset, charging, and durability.
Potentially more affordable – The key to mass adoption.
The Find N5 and OnePlus Open 2 are shaping up to be the most refined and practical foldables yet. If they can deliver on price and performancethis could be the year foldables truly go mainstream.
