Unveiling the Slim Design of the Oppo Find N5: A Look at Its Innovative Features
The promotional campaign for the highly anticipated Oppo Find N5 is ramping up, with fresh insights highlighting its enhanced hinge design and precise dimensions. In its folded state, the Find N5 will measure just 8.93mm thick, positioning it to be recognized as the thinnest foldable smartphone available once it is officially launched in just one week. While Oppo has yet to disclose its unfurled width, circulating rumors indicate that each side could be around 4.2mm wide, leaving a mere 0.53mm allocated for the camera area.
Revolutionary Hinge Technology
An intriguing detail about the Find N5’s design is its cutting-edge hinge mechanism. Dubbed as the “titanium alloy sky hinge,” this innovative feature incorporates titanium metal as indicated by its name; however, what sets it apart is Oppo’s incorporation of a pioneering 3D-printed titanium wing panel. The manufacturing process consisted of multiple stages: initially melting titanium into a liquid state before converting it into powder form suitable for use in 3D printing.
Enhanced Durability and Functionality
Additionally, this device boasts an advanced five-spring torque system alongside a waterdrop mechanism that tucks part of the display inside—this engineering choice mitigates display creasing significantly. Its remarkable slim profile does not compromise durability either; astoundingly, the Oppo Find N5 will come equipped with IPX9 water resistance certification—a first among foldable smartphones.
