New OPPO Find N3 brings a lot to Foldable Experience

Okay, the Oppo Find N3 is official in the global market alongside its doppelganger, the OnePlus Open. Yes, you read that right. Initially, the Oppo foldable was stated to be China-exclusive, to note. In this article, we'll be discussing the specifications, features, and expected price of the OPPO Find N3 in Nepal.

OPPO Find N3 Overview

Design

On the design side, the OPPO Find N3 brings an upgrade to the Find N2, but with a similar weight and thinner design. At most, the leather version of this smartphone measures around 11.9mm when folded. Moreover, identical to its OnePlus siblings, the OPPO Find N3 brings in an Alert Slider. Oppo has used an aviation-grade hinge, which is claimed to last a long time. For water resistance, Find N3 is rated to have an IPX8 rating. Furthermore, it is available in Classic Black/Red with vegan leather and Green/Champagne Gold with a matte glass finish.

Display

Getting to the display, the cover screen is a 6.31” AMOLED display with 2484 x 1116px in resolution, a 20:9 aspect ratio, and a peak brightness of 2800 nits. OPPO uses the LTPO3 tech that caps at 120Hz refresh and goes all the way down to 1Hz. Unfolding the Find N3 reveals a better and bigger screen, with a 7.82” LTPO panel with 1-120Hz dynamic refresh rate and 2440 x 2268px resolution. Nonetheless, the peak brightness is the same as the cover display.

Performance and OS

This device carries the most out of the hardware, as it brings the best Qualcomm chip for now, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 (4nm). This SoC includes 1x Cortex-X3@3.2GHz, 2x Cortex-A715@2.8GHz, 2x Cortex-A710@2.8GHz, and 3x Cortex-A510@2.0GHz, plus an Adreno 740 GPU. The chip is paired with 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 512GB of UFS 4.0 storage.

Color OS 13.2

As for software, the device delivers ColorOS 13.2, based on Android 13. This version of the OS upgrade brings a lot of new additions to utilize the big screen of the OPPO Find N3. One of the highlighted features is "Boundless View". By the looks of it, the Boundless View allows users to expand the window beyond the screen border while working in split-screen mode. With this view, one app is focused while other apps still stay within the view, so switching between the windows is much easier. Further, the new Canvas Shift helps to switch between expanded view, full screen, and normal split-screen view in just one click. Further, swiping down with two fingers in the middle of the screen splits the screen in half for another app to open. There is even an "App Library" on the new "Global Taskbar" and a "File Pocket" to easily drag and drop files. Additionally, with Smart Split Screen, the device chooses the optimal layout for the apps you open on multiple screens.

Camera

At the back, the Find N3 brings in a triple camera setup with Hasselblad branding. The primary lens is a 48MP shooter with OIS and a f/1.7 aperture. Moreover, the OIS is also carried to the 3x zoom sensor, which can shoot a sharper 64MP resolution. Lastly, there is an ultra-wide lens with 114˚ FOV and a ½” sensor. Similarly, as with most of the foldables, there are two selfie cameras. One is on the cover screen (20 MP), while the other is embedded in the inner display, which can shoot at 32MP resolution.

Battery and others

The Oppo Find N3 ships with a 4805 mAh lithium polymer cell. With 67W PD charging, 10 minutes of charging can juice it up from 0% to 35%. Connectivity options on this foldable include 5G, tri-band WiFi 7, NFC, GPS, and a USB Type-C port. Other than that, there is an in-display optical sensor for fingerprint unlocking.
