That’s a lot of folds!
With the launch of Find N3 Flip, OPPO has overhauled the cover screen experience to deliver improved usability, best-in-class camera performance. Not only that, Find N3 Flip certification of folds has been updated from 600,000 to 1,000,000 for a more seamless crease even for a long-term use.
At the heart of Find N3 Flip’s flagship features is its impressive vertical cover screen. Its tall orientation is instantly familiar, mirroring the smartphone experience everyone knows. By being vertical, Find N3 Flip’s cover screen creates the horizontal space needed for a best-in-class camera system, and it also previews photos with almost no crop.
There are so many ways Find N3 Flip’s powerful cover screen helps it strike a perfect balance.
Here are some things you should know about the upgrades from the Find N2 Flip, how cover screen apps elevate the flip phone experience, and how the vertical cover screen makes a world-class camera possible.
From Find N2 Flip to Find N3 Flip
Find N2 Flip demonstrates why a vertical cover screen makes sense with the simplest tasks.
Every time you look at your notifications, it displays more on its tall cover screen, and when browsing text messages and adjusting quick settings, there’s less scrolling than on smaller or square displays. OPPO even includes built-in and customisable quick replies, as well as speech-to-text support to add even more functionality which allows you to use the phone even when the cover is closed.
Find N3 Flip brings back all Find N2 Flip’s advantages over alternative cover screens, while simultaneously overhauling and upgrading the experience from the ground up.
Easier to use than ever, Find N3 Flip’s cover screen introduces a familiar apps menu – just swipe from right to left to pull it into view – so if you’ve used an Android phone with an apps tray, expect zero learning curve when navigating its interface.
OPPO has also upgraded the vertical cover screen’s home screen, adding support for up to three dynamic widgets, so you can quickly access handy features like your camera, voice notes, weather, or even shortcut straight to a messaging app.
It isn’t all about productivity, though, with Find N3 Flip bringing back interactive cover screen pets and upgrading them from 2D to 3D. This time, there are also more pets to pick from, including a Bird, Cat, Dog, Hamster, Koala, Panda, Rabbit, and Tiger. These animated fur babies reflect what you’re doing – listening to music or sleeping, for example – or they just get on with what they do best: looking playful and charming.
Cover Screen Apps
Find N3 Flip also upgrades the cover screen with another much-requested feature, support for third-party apps.
The vast majority of Android apps are optimised to work on a vertical screen, just like the screen of a typical smartphone. That means apps are natively oriented to look great on a tall display, just like Find N3 Flip’s cover screen.
To make sure every detail is on point and to perfect how each app looks and functions on its front display, OPPO worked with Google and other partners to fine-tune the experience for the most popular Android apps.
The native Google Phone app, Maps, Keep, and Gmail are all ready to go for cover screen use, as are popular social media apps for short-form video and short-form posting services. When displaying these apps, Find N3 Flip’s taller screen shows more emails, messages, and posts than more square alternatives – mirroring your phone’s main display for a more intuitive view.
Find N3 Flip can natively control currently playing music from the cover screen, irrespective of which app’s playing back content, but it’s also been optimised for the most popular music streaming app with a fully featured interface so you can access your playlists and discover new music.
If you’re travelling, you can even access maps and car-hailing services without opening your phone, and when hunger strikes, quickly order food in moments, all from Find N3 Flip’s front display.
The Best Camera on a Flip Phone
Have you ever wondered why the camera sensor on a phone is normally the same orientation as its main display? It’s so you can see the fullest picture possible when previewing your photos and videos. This same logic extends to cover screens.
OPPO makes the only flip phones with a cover screen that’s also the same aspect ratio as the camera sensor, so when you’re using the Find N2 Flip or Find N3 Flip’s front display to take a selfie or a group shot, your preview has almost no crop.
By contrast to Find N3 Flip’s seamless selfie experience, photos taken on square cover screen flip phones produce a significant crop by default, using a smaller portion of the camera sensor and taking a lower-quality photo.
