The Oppo Find N5 is scheduled to launch in Singapore on February 20, but ahead of the official reveal, I’ve got my hands on the claimed “world’s thinnest book-style foldable.” Here are some more hands-on images of the upcoming Oppo foldable phone, which is expected to debut in the USA as the OnePlus Open 2.
How thin is it exactly compared to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6, Honor Magic V3, and the OnePlus Open?
The Oppo Find N5 is considerably thinner than its predecessor. Compared to the OnePlus Open (Oppo Find N3), it’s taller and features a different design on the back.
As you can see above, the flash now resides inside the camera module, and the faux leather back has been replaced with a new finish. There’s a purple vegan leather Find N5 in China, but Oppo has only teased the White and Black color variants for its global launch.
I can’t talk numbers right now but the upcoming Find N5 is comfortably slimmer than Samsung’s latest book-style foldable. It’s also broader, taller, more ergonomic and has a less noticeable crease than the Galaxy Z Fold 6. I don’t have the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, but I can confirm the upcoming Oppo foldable is also considerably slimmer than Google’s foldable.
I also have the current thinnest book-style foldable, the Honor Magic V3, on hand. When compared, the difference between the two devices isn’t as significant as it is with the Samsung and OnePlus foldables. The Magic V3 sports curved sides, which make it feel slimmer than it actually is.
However, one thing that stands out on the Oppo Find N5 is its crease. It’s not completely gone, but it’s the least noticeable I’ve experienced on a foldable phone. While still visible, you can barely feel it when swiping a finger across the display. The OnePlus Open’s crease was already minimal and better than those on Samsung, Honor, and Vivo foldables, and this is an upgrade on top of that.
The Oppo Find N5 will be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset. If I go by the OnePlus 13 and Galaxy S25 Ultra’s performance results, I expect the Find N5 to deliver unmatched performance in the foldable segment. It’s also confirmed to feature IPX6, IPX8, and IPX9 water resistance certifications, as well as offer wireless charging—both of which were absent on its predecessor.
Overall, the Oppo Find N5 feels sturdy in hand despite its slim profile. I’m also pleasantly surprised by the strong hinge. It’ll be interesting to see how it holds up in long-term use.
Oppo is launching a Find-series foldable for the first time outside China, but it is unlikely to go on sale as an Oppo phone in many major markets. For instance, it’s speculated to be released as the OnePlus Open 2 in the U.S. and India. More details on the device will be revealed once it launches on February 20.
