Oppo's Find N3 series hits the global market

Usually when Chinese smartphone manufacturers announce a new phone, it tends to be made available in China first before it launches globally (if at all). This was the case with the Oppo Find N3 series that was launched back in August, but if you're not in China but like what you see, the global availability of both phones has since been announced.

During an event held in Singapore, Oppo announced the global availability of both the Find N3 and Find N3 Flip. The company says that pre-orders will kick off tomorrow on the 20th of October with prices starting at SGD1,499 (~$950) for the Find N3 Flip with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, and SGD2,399 (~$1,750) for the Find N3 with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage.

In case you're learning about either phone for the first time, the Oppo Find N3 Flip will feature a 3.26-inch external AMOLED display with a 60Hz refresh rate, while its inner foldable display comes in at 6.8-inches with a 120Hz refresh rate. It uses Oppo's Flexion hinge design and under the hood, a MediaTek Dimensity 9200 chipset can be found, alongside a 4,300mAh battery.

The phone is also the first foldable flip phone with a triple camera setup which consists of a 50MP main shooter, a 48MP ultrawide, and a 32MP optical zoom, with a 32MP camera on the inside for the selfie cam.

As for the Find N3, it packs a 6.3-inch display on the outside while its inner foldable display opens up to 7.8-inches, making it a pretty sizable device if you want a more tablet-like experience. The inner display also has a 120Hz refresh rate and it will also rely on Oppo's Flexion hinge technology.

Unlike the Find N3 Flip, the Find N3 will be powered by a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset and comes with a 4,800mAh battery. For its cameras, the Find N3 will feature a Hasselblad-branded triple camera setup with a 48MP two-layer stacked CMOS sensor, a 48MP ultrawide, and a 64MP telephoto, with a 20MP selfie cam for the outer display, and a 32MP selfie cam for the inner display.
