Key details about Oppo's wide-screen foldable emerge
Earlier this year, a rumor claimed that Oppo was developing a wide-format foldable aimed at competing with Apple's rumored iPhone Ultra. Now, a new leak has offered more details on the device and its potential launch timeline.
In a Weibo post, well-known tipster Digital Chat Station revealed that Oppo’s wide-screen is well into development and is likely to launch in Q1 2027. The device is reportedly being tested with Qualcomm's upcoming Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 chipset.

The leak further claims that the foldable will feature a 7.6-inch inner display and a 5.5-inch cover screen. Oppo is said to be evaluating panels from both Samsung Display and BOE, while the overall design is reportedly similar to Apple's upcoming foldable iPhone.
DCS also claims that the foldable will feature Oppo's latest-generation crease-minimizing hinge technology, likely the same hinge system used on the Find N6. While the final branding remains unclear, recent rumors suggest the device could debut as the Oppo Find N7.
