Oppo Find N3 Flip Launched As First Triple-camera Clamshell Foldable Smartphone
Design and display
The Oppo Find N3 Flip goes for a slightly different design approach compared to its predecessor. It has a rectangular cover screen on the side like the N2 Flip but gets a new circular camera module that houses three camera lenses with Hasselblad branding. Below that is an LED flash. The right side of the device features a power button (with an integrated fingerprint sensor) and a volume rocker, while you get an alert slider on the left side.
The brand has employed a new hinge mechanism in the smartphone called the “Seiko Pseudo-cone Hinge”. It is claimed that the device has been tested by folding it 600,000 without any damage.
In addition to that, the hinge also functions normally in extreme conditions like -20°C to 50°C. In terms of dimensions, the device measures 166.4mm x 75.8mm x 7.79mm while unfolded. On the other hand, it measures 85.5mm x 75.8mm x 16.45mm when folded.

The outer screen offers a resolution of 720 × 382 pixels, 60Hz refresh rate, and a peak brightness of 900 nits. Both screens use AMOLED technology, with the internal screen supporting a flexible design, 1~120Hz adaptive refresh rate, and up to 240Hz touch sampling rate.
