OPPO Find N was released on December 15, with a price starting from 7699 yuan.
Before the price was announced, we also felt that there was nothing to say about folding screen phones. The price of intelligent luxury goods is high, and the structure is not perfect. It is like super running. People will take a look at it, but they will not care about it. In any case, normal people will not buy it. However, OPPO Find N upset our plan with a price of 7699 yuan.
Folding screen mobile phones suddenly fall into the consideration of normal users, and the audience size has soared several orders of magnitude, becoming a product that normal people may choose. The article has upgraded from the original simple experience to detailed evaluation. Let's talk about the hinge and crease of OPPO Find N, screen scale and use details in detail.

Appearance and packaging
OPPO Find N is also packaged with Awesome. When opening the box, the mobile phone bracket will be lifted forward and upward, and finally the mobile phone will be tilted in front of you.
All black coating package, white charging set. 33W fast charging, never forget the original design, model VCB3HACH, maximum 11V 3A output.
Of the three colors of black, white and purple, only the black version is frosted glass, but I think the most beautiful is white. At the press conference, there was a display of color matching without mass production, and several of them were more to our taste than the mass production version.
The inner screen of OPPO Find N is nearly square, with a screen ratio of about 9:9.5, which is also a very special ratio in the folding screen.
Almost all elements of the middle frame are symmetrical, including the antenna.
Lower left iPhone 12 Pro Max, upper right OPPO Find N, lower right plus 9 Pro
The upper left hole of OPPO Find N is shot ahead, and the hole is too large. In order to control the height of the notice bar, the opening was moved a little to the right. The screen fillet is not completely aligned with the fuselage fillet, and the radian is slightly different;
The OPPO Find N frame is actually narrow, second only to the chin of the straight flagship, and close to the forehead width of the mainstream flagship, very close to the four sides of the same width; The inner screen edge is a washer with uniform height, without additional buffer feet.
The outer screen is a one-sided micro curved screen with a central punch (Samsung Galaxy Edge was also a one-sided curved screen in those days). Apart from the left axis, the control of the three sides is good.
800 yuan hinge and seamless "hidden mark"
Teacher Fei Wei's Site Picture ↑
OPPO Find N's hinge claims 136 parts, 125 patents, and a single cost of 800 yuan. When it is almost closed, the screen at the scroll can be bent into a water drop shape. After folding, the fuselage at both ends is fully fitted, and the actual measurement can indeed clamp A4 paper like Liu Zuohu's "Boss Zhang", and then lift it in the air.
Details of shaft ↑
Maximum angle that can hover ↑
Minimum angle capable of hovering ↑
The hinge is a good hinge. When OPPO Find N is closed, it is slightly tight. It has to be opened with a little effort. It is tighter when it is at a large angle (it will automatically straighten when it exceeds the maximum hovering angle), and it is looser when it is at a small angle. The stretching state will not be loose, and the unilateral fuselage will not move when it is held fast. The "Pa" sound when closing is very neat and solid.
After several days of opening and closing for hundreds of times, the damping below 90 degrees on our hand is not as tight as at first. I don't know which is the target state of the design. Is lubrication on? Or what else? As for the durability, we will report it a year later (if you still remember).
OPPO Find N crease effect ↑
Scrawling the middle area with your hand can vaguely feel the details of the hinge. The concave and convex areas are not high, and the specific position of the crease will not be perceived as clearly as Samsung in daily sliding.
When the screen is black, it is easy to detect the uneven part of the screen as long as it reflects light. It is difficult to see the crease when looking at the bright screen. The creases of OPPO Find N are scattered to the entire hinge area, which is more than the length of one finger. This is similar to the "wide folding screen" scheme of Moto and Huawei, while the Samsung Z Fold series is a "small area but deep" crease. Compared with the Samsung scheme (which is a bit of a show off), the OPPO/moto/Huawei scheme is safer and more eye-catching.
Workmanship&feel&fingerprint identification&release&vibration
work : Stainless steel middle frame+glass back cover, the whole machine is round without cutting hands, the volume key is slightly empty, and the shaft fits perfectly, with good workmanship.
Fingerprint/face: When the box is covered, the side fingerprint and the volume key are side by side, which needs some time to adapt. Fingerprint recognition is fast, and angle compatibility depends on the effect of your input. It is recommended that you close the status and enter your fingerprint, which will be closer to the usual unlocking scene (if you are a hardcore boss who pulls out your phone from your pants pocket in the unfolded status, when I didn't say). The face is still unlocked by Lvchang Yineng. When the mask is not worn, it will be unlocked during the lifting process, faster than fingerprints;
External release: Symmetrical double jacks are placed at the bottom of the fuselage, obviously designed for horizontal screen opening. The speaker volume is large, the sound quality is good, and the tuning is a bit stuffy. There may be room for improvement in the later algorithm;
Vibration: X-axis motor, slightly weak, generally good;

The border thickness of OPPO Find N has no advantage in mobile phones, but it has no rivals in tablets.
IPhone 12 mini (5.4 inches), OPPO Find N (7.1 inches), iPhone 13 Pro (6.1 inches), and 12 Pro Max (6.7 inches)
feel: The contrast between the weight and the shape of the phone will leave a profound impact on you. Although the screen is one circle smaller than other flat folded screen phones, OPPO Find N still has 275g. When you switch from it to the normal 200g flagship, it seems that the sandbags that have been tied to your hands and feet disappear, and you will actually feel stronger.
The height of OPPO Find N is smaller than that of iPhone 12/13 mini, surprise! The double curved surface is soft, and the folding state is exquisite and small. It won't top the pocket, but it is a little thick, and will bulge in the pants pocket.
The thickness of the unfolded state is just right, which can make you feel "in the palm of your hand". The center of gravity is lower, and it is very stable to hold. The screen is low, and your thumb can reach the notice bar, "This is a car that can give you enough confidence to drive". The OPPO Find N tablet is also in a small state. When it is held in the street/bar/elevator, it is not as obvious as the iPad mini 6, but rather like a Kindle instant noodles cover, showing its owner's elegance and introversion.
Screen: top quality, ratio of love and hate
External screen BOE, Zhou Dongyu in a 2-in-1 arrangement, 5.49 "60Hz 1972 * 988 (18:9), 402ppi, central perforated single screen, Corning seven generation gorilla glass, default 120Hz touch sampling, maximum 240Hz;
Manual brightness, local maximum 537 nits, full white maximum 477 nits, at this time, the four corners 481/490/479/482 nits, the uniformity is OK. Automatically activate the brightness, 868 nits locally, 732 nits completely white, and the performance is OK.
The internal screen is made of Samsung E5 material, standard P row, 7.1 inch 120Hz LTPO 1920 * 1792 (9.6:9), 370ppi, upper left perforated folding screen, peak value 1000nit, 1-120Hz adaptive refresh rate, default 135Hz touch sampling (3 fingers), maximum 180Hz.
Manual brightness, local maximum 570 nit, full white maximum 471 nit, at this time, four corners 475/472/472/472 nit, uniformity is good.
OPPO Find N internal and external screens, OPPO Find X3 Pro, One Plus 9 Pro vivo X70 Pro+、 Comparison of measured screen data between Huawei P50 Pro and Xiaomi 11/Xiaomi 11 Ultra. There is a lot of data, so we won't repeat it here.
In a word, the quality of OPPO Find N's internal screen is very high. It is really a good screen, and the color accuracy of the external screen is also very close. The sRGB color standard of the inner screen is the flagship top level, second only to the two flagship of Green Factory itself. The P3 color standard (professional cinema mode) is also very strong, stronger than the existing products in the database.
BOE's external screen switches the dimming mode at about 60% - 70% brightness bar. At this time, the brightness is around 200 nits.
The Samsung E5 LTPO outer screen switches when the brightness bar is 40%. At this time, the brightness is about 100 nits. There is no DC like dimming switch. In terms of eye protection, the internal and external screens are only half the weight.
The main weakness of OPPO Find N screen is not low-frequency PWM, but fineness. External screen 402ppi, but arranged by Zhou Dongyu; The inner screen has row P, but 370ppi. However, the default dp value of OPPO Find N is 600 (the larger the value, the more display elements). The huge system elements will force you to look far away, and the fineness is actually enough. However, in order to make better use of this large screen, I set it to 700dp in developer mode. At this time, the problem of fineness will be more prominent.
16: 9 Comparison of video effects ↑
18: 9 Comparison of video effects ↑
OPPO Find N has a 7.1 inch inner screen, 1920x1792, with a ratio of 9.6:9. It is nearly square and has a large area. However, as we all know, it is the length of the long side that determines the video display size:
When playing 16:9 video (the proportion of most network videos), OPPO Find N's horizontal display area is slightly larger than that of the iPhone 12/13 Pro Max with 6.7 inches and 19.5:9, while its vertical display area is slightly smaller;
When the 18:9 video is played, it is smaller than the iPhone 12/13 Pro Max, and similar to the iPhone 12/13 series with a 6.1 inch screen. Thanks for the iPhone's big bangs, if the iPhone can run out of bangs, the gap will be even bigger. The film at 21:9 will be close to that at 18:9.
System: Large screen optimization much better than that of friends
As we all know, a large number of apps, including "small and beautiful" WeChat, do not make good use of the display area of the square screen, which is a short board of tablet ecology, including Android and iOS/iPad OS. A few ancient APPs and designed APPs (for example, flying books, but they can rotate when viewing documents) do not even support screen rotation # ¥% # ¥......! # ¥#@#¥%
In addition to the "parallel window/parallel horizon" that all peers have, OPPO's core solution is to quickly split the screen by sliding down the center of both fingers. In addition, ColorOS itself does a good job of small window function ↑. Three APPs can be opened on the same screen, and the experience is still slow.
OPPO has its own keyboard optimization, and even third-party input methods such as iFLYTEK ↑ have gained the ability of keyboard partition, split screen automatic suspension, etc., which is much better than the optimization of a UI folding screen, or even a tablet.
Camera horizontal split screen ↑
Camera split screen ↑
Camera panoramic preview ↑
The camera comes with up and down, left and right split screen mode, and floating secondary screen preview button. The large screen optimization is in place. Even though the function of "using the folding screen as a bracket" to take photos is rarely used, it is really a good idea.
The square screen of OPPO Find N will have an exaggerated vertical view in well adapted games such as "Peace Elite", while in "Glory of the King", it will suffer the same losses as other tablets, all of which have to be adapted to APP.
The setting menu of Peace Elite can read a whole page almost without scrolling

The charm of the square screen, in fact, does not need to be adapted. It can be fully displayed when reading books, reading K-line, tables, PC version web pages, file management and other intensive data. Square screen is the productivity!
The car mounted mode is larger than the car mounted machine of many cars, but it doesn't support many APPs ↑
OPPO Find N system has a "large screen area", whose function is also as its name implies (see screenshot description):
The free floating window is the original function of ColorOS (dedicated to hanging online classes, hanging games, and videos that do not need pictures). Parallel windows are available to everyone, so we won't mention them here;
Hover mode is similar to the expansion mode of a notebook, which is used to watch videos (currently only supported by video APP). The screen at the bottom acts as a touchpad for fast forward, volume and brightness adjustment. But in fact, it conflicts with the parallel window function. You can only choose one from two;
The compatibility mode is the last one, which is really the last trump card. 4:3, 16:9 and full screen display are forcibly assigned;
The most practical One step split screen of double finger midline sliding , four finger pinch, floating window and other methods can trigger split screen, and dragging the top bar can change the side of APP. The multi task interface will automatically save two split screen APPs, but only one pair of APPs can be saved temporarily. During split screen, long press the split screen slider in the middle of the screen to release the shortcut of this pair of APP on the desktop, which is a good civilization;
Relay of large and small screens , this function is practical. When the cover is closed, the outer screen lights up for 3 seconds, and the upward stroke will continue the previous interface, otherwise the screen will be locked, which solves the daily trouble of "closing the folding screen and going away, but the outer screen lights up". There is also the option of uniformly lighting up the outer screen and not lighting up the outer screen.
There is also a "one button multi search" in the search. Three APPs are opened at the same time for a search (only two are displayed on the same screen, and the third is switched with the middle suspension window). Teacher Luo calls the expert directly. The entrance is a little deep. Now there are only several choices, such as JD/Suning/Pinduoduo, Ctrip/Qunar/intra city travel, UC/Baidu/browser, which are practical and OK.
Compared with the semi-finished products of friends, ColorOS is smooth, light, less buggy, and the optimization of large screen is obviously leading. However, at this stage, the system does not give full play to the advantages of folding screen. For example, it might be more fun if the application can reside on one side, and the other side can operate independently even the multi task interface. It would be better if you could lock and generate desktop shortcuts for unlimited number of group pair apps stored in the multitask list.
ColorOS can't replace the third-party desktop, the number of squares available on the desktop is too small (in the tablet form, the problem is more obvious), the background can only be started automatically, the multitasking interface can't quickly access the application management page, and if the background can't be started automatically, even WeChat will be killed in the background, which is a clich é. Using "Color OS" will always make our geeks miss the passing of Dahydrogen.
Performance and photography
OPPO Find N is a classic Snapdragon 888, LPDDR5+UFS 3.1, I won't go into details.
CPU performance comparison: OPPO Find N's CPU is multi-core conservative and single core normal
GPU comparison: The GPU of OPPO Find N is still active
Flash memory read and write: The others are 256GB, only the X70 Pro+and Find N are 512GB, but their performance is satisfactory
In addition to Mate X2, there is no folding screen mobile phone with top photography hardware yet. OPPO Find N is MX766 main camera+IMX481 ultra wide angle+S5K3M5 telephoto. OPPO focuses on keeping the main camera and two front cameras, and the knife technique is like magic:
The internal and external front is 3200W, IM615,0.8μm,F2.4
Main camera 5000W, IMX766, 1/1.56 inch, F1.8+OIS, 6P lens
Ultra wide angle 1600W, IMX481, 1/3.09 inch, 123 degrees, F2.2, 5P lens
2x long focal 1300W, S5K3M5, 1/3.4 inch, F2.4, 5P lens
The main performance of OPPO Find N is similar to that of OPPO Find X3 Pro (nonsense), the mainstream flagship level, which is not outstanding, but it is definitely not a weak point. Ultra wide angle and 2x long focus (without OIS) are obviously weak, and the recording property is dominant. Let the proof sheet speak, and we won't beep more:

2x telephoto, Scene 1

Endurance&Charging&Heating
The 4500mAh battery of OPPO Find N certainly sounds insufficient to support this 7.1 inch screen. But on second thought, in the size of the two iPhones with 13 mini (2406mAh battery), there is still 4500mAh left after the huge hinge is buckled. It seems that we have tried our best.
The 4500mAh battery, after a 2.5 hour endurance test of 30 minutes of "Peace Elite" (HDR high-definition+limit frames+anti aliasing), 30 minutes of 1080P video playback on station B, 30 minutes of short video on microblog, 30 minutes of Wi Fi and 5G surfing respectively, has 77% left when using the outer screen and 68% left when using the inner screen.
The outer screen is 5.49 inches, and the performance is expected. The internal screen area is 60% larger than the normal flagship, but the resolution is not high. There are LTPOs, black edges on the top and bottom when watching videos (the actual lit area is really not different from the 6.1 inch small iPhone). The endurance performance is better than expected, and the performance is actually OK.
OPPO Find N will suffer when reading white background web pages, WeChat chat, and e-books. If you have serious anxiety about endurance, it is recommended to use the dark mode to save power, or use the external screen directly for emergency.
OPPO Find N uses a 33W fast charge that many people can't touch their hair (a small folding screen doesn't have dual cells, but it's better to give a single cell 60W), which is still a private agreement. The actual peak value is 27.8W, 1% - 100% charge, 10 minutes charge to 22%, 20 minutes charge to 41%, 30 minutes charge to 59%, 45 minutes charge to 86%. It takes 55 minutes to fully charge, and then there will be more than 20 minutes of 2W trickle.
Of course, no matter how nostalgic the 33W is, it is also one level stronger than the S21 Ultra, iPhone 13 Pro Max and other environmental friendly fast charging devices. In this way, you can comfort yourself. If you can't, close your eyes and recite 7699 silently.
15W wireless charging. With Vivo's wireless charging base, 26W peak value can appear for several seconds, and there was an instant 28W. Blue and green are really good brothers (wrong), but because the protocol is not matched, even if the angle is selected, only 18W can be maintained, while Xiaomi's wireless charging base can maintain about 17W, with good compatibility.
Oh, by the way, the wireless charging coil of OPPO Find N is located at the bottom. Like Xiaomi 10 Ultra, something must be padded before it can be used on the normal vertical wireless charging base.
The room temperature is 25.2 degrees, and the 20 minute "Peace Elite" (HDR HD+limited frames+anti aliasing), the highest temperature on the front is in the upper middle of the right fuselage, about 42.5 degrees; The maximum temperature on the back is 42.1 ℃, and the temperature control is OK.
Other beeps
The folding screen as a standby machine has a natural advantage - you can scan the code to log in to the WeChat tablet version. Mobile phones, computers and folding screens can be logged in at the same time to facilitate the exchange of information about several devices. However, WeChat is, after all, "small and beautiful green software", which always has some inexplicable regrets (this time it is mainly the pot of Android platform). On the folding screen, switch between the main and secondary screens several times, and you will still be logged out. There is no QR code scanning access when the external screen is opened, so you have to go to the application management page to forcibly stop it, and then open it again on the internal screen.
Personally, I think the main reason for making mobile phones so flat is to control the screen area and then control the price of mobile phones within an acceptable range. The flat screen of OPPO Find N has too little vertical display content in split screen, which is far less than that of ordinary mobile phones, resulting in poor split screen experience. 16:9 on one side is no longer the optimal ratio for mobile devices, and the mainstream image is closer to 18:9. With the round corners of the screen and the false position of the notification bar, most mobile phones are concentrated around 19.5:9. I hope the screen of the next generation of products will be more slender.
The bulges at both ends of the shaft will block the upward stroke back to the desktop when the phone is placed horizontally (the shaft is placed vertically), and block the side stroke back when the phone is placed vertically (the shaft is placed horizontally). Then I have formed the habit of holding the phone horizontally and scribing on the bottom side. It is still necessary to use the inner screen as a perforated camera. Even if you don't take a selfie, it can also help you identify the direction of the phone. The square screen is really easy to get confused
It is a typical innovation to use the mobile phone as a stand to take photos and watch videos. Regardless of whether the angle is appropriate or not, whether the desktop will scratch our noble mobile phone or not, it is difficult to remember to use it.
The default 600dp of the system is too small and the information density is too low. It is recommended that the developer manually increase the dp value (the larger the value, the smaller the element), but that will be more eye-catching.
Now only the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 is waterproof, but it is not dustproof, and OPPO Find N is no exception. You should be careful in daily use. In addition, it is suggested to buy mobile phone cases as soon as possible (7699 makes OPPO have no spare power to send mobile phone cases in the package, and the first batch of cases and charging boards are limited). This is the advice given to me by Mother Earth after the mobile phone kisses the earth.
In fact, OPPO Find N does not need to be configured on the top. It doesn't matter how large the memory is. ColorOS will kill the backstage anyway, and it will save 1300 (wrong).
Summary: the first folding screen for young people
OPPO Find N is a mobile phone with mixed feelings, love and hate. Its size reminds people of PDA and 3DS, not iPad mini. It gives you a warm feeling of being held in the palm of your hand. When folded, it is shorter than the iPhone 13 mini, but its endurance is much better. It is a real small screen flagship (twice the weight).
A few days before the press conference, we got the mobile phone, saw 60Hz Zhou Dongyu, saw 1920x1792, saw the IMX481 ultra wide angle and OIS free telephoto, saw the 33W fast charge, and we slowly raised a question mark. Then 7699 yuan changed everyone's view on the "smart luxury" of folding screen phones, and also changed me.
OPPO Find N uses all good steel on the blade. Samsung E5 LTPO inner screen+UTG+hinge+Snapdragon 888+IMX766 is the greatest sincerity. 4500mAh battery life is really tight. Video life is good. After all, the lighting area is small, but reading books and documents is really 7.1 inch full output. The screen fineness is not high enough, and the 33W fast charging is not fast enough, but the appearance of materials and texture, the folding screen optimization with high degree of completion, and the 7699 pricing that makes people enter the Sage's time have nothing to say: OPPO has made the coolest folding screen phone in Mifen's heart (mistake).
At the price of 7699 yuan, OPPO Find N is an invincible mobile phone with folding screen. If you need it, you can rush with your eyes closed.
Of course, folding screen phones are not suitable for everyone. As he said, if you don't need to open the inner screen frequently, it is unnecessary to bear 100% of the weight of the folding screen for 50% of the use time of the inner screen (and price) Information intensive operation is the advantage of folding screen devices, not watching videos or playing games. Folding screen mobile phones are designed to replace tablets and computers to a certain extent, for heavy mobile phone users, and for information browsing scenarios such as office, reading, web pages, tables, etc.
During this period of time, I was very happy. The mobile device that made me so happy last time was called Hammer R2. I replaced OPPO Find N as the main engine, and TA continued to use the straight mobile phone. We all have a bright future.
