While foldable smartphones have been around for over six years at this point, they are constantly evolving and tri-fold devices are expected to be the next big thing. We’ve seen several teasers from brands like Huawei and Tecno and now Oppo is taking its turn to showcase its upcoming tri-fold smartphone.
Zhou Yibao, the product manager for the
Oppo Find series shared a render of the Oppo tri-fold device. We can see it
features two hinge elements, a nearly bezel-less main screen and a faux leather
back. The device appears to be running a modified version of Oppo’s ColorOS
interface with large widgets and a taskbar. Unfortunately, we don’t get any
more specifics regarding the hardware at this point.
Earlier this year, reports suggested that
Oppo and vivo were backing out of the foldable smartphone market. Oppo later
refuted that report and assured that it plans to continue developing new
foldable devices.
