Oppo is working on a cheap competitor to the Galaxy Z Flip
Oppo unveiled the Find N clamshell months ago, which attracted a lot of users thanks to its attractive design and features. Unfortunately, this phone is only available in the Chinese market and as a result, users living in other countries can not buy it. Given that clamshell phones are gaining more and more attention, Oppo certainly does not want to stop the process of making these types of phones, and now a new report has been published about the latest clamshells of this company.
According to this report , Oppo works on a vertical clamshell phone similar to the Galaxy Z Flip 3 and Huawei P50 Pocket. But unlike these two phones, Oppo has a much better price for the phone in question. It should be noted that the Find N phone has also entered the Chinese market at a very reasonable price. That's why Oppo seems to be planning to market its clamshell phones at a better price than its competitors.
It is said that Oppo wants the phone to be priced at around 5,000 yuan (about $ 750). Reach Chinese users. For comparison, Chinese users have to pay $ 1,360 to buy the P50 Pocket and $ 1,199 to buy the Galaxy Z Flip 3. As a result, the price of the new Oppo phone will be much lower than its competitors. If this price is implemented and Oppo can launch the phone in other countries, it will probably be widely welcomed by users. Currently, almost the entire clamshell phone market is in Samsung's hands, and we hope that by 2022, competing companies will be able to gain a share of this market share.
Although significant advances have been made in the field of clamshell phones over the past few years, the cost of making these handsets is still very high due to their high prices. , Only a very small part of the users buy these phones. But if companies like Oppo and Samsung are really looking to make this type of phone ubiquitous, they have no choice but to lower the prices. It is said that the phone will be launched with the Snapdragon 8 Generation 1 Plus chipset. Given that the chipset is to be built by TSMC, experts believe that it will have more to say in terms of performance and heat generation than the standard model produced by Samsung. It is not clear when this Oppo clamshell phone will be introduced, but no doubt more details will be revealed in the coming weeks and months.
