Foldable smartphones have gained traction over the past five years, yet mainstream adoption remains a challenge. According to a recent Canalys report, manufacturers must continue to address key hurdles to solidify foldables as a staple in the premium smartphone market.
The report highlights that for every 100 Android smartphones sold globally above US$800, 19 are foldables—a significant 19% increase since 2019. This growth is driven by premium innovations, cutting-edge technology, and the prestigious brand image associated with foldable devices.
To cater to a wider audience, manufacturers are refining foldable designs by optimizing thickness, battery life, and display sizes, bridging the gap between foldables and traditional bar-shaped flagships.
OPPO Find N5: The Thinnest Foldable Yet
In 2019, foldable smartphones measured between 15mm to 17mm in thickness. Today, OPPO is redefining the category with the OPPO Find N5, the world’s thinnest foldable smartphone, at just 8.93mm.
This breakthrough in engineering brings foldables closer than ever to the 8mm benchmark, the standard thickness of conventional flagship smartphones. The OPPO Find N5 combines a refined hinge mechanism and durable yet lightweight materials, ensuring a sleek, compact, and ergonomic foldable experience without compromising performance.
Pushing Innovation: The Road to Mainstream Adoption
Achieving a thinner foldable smartphone is a technical feat that requires reimagining key smartphone components—from displays and cameras to battery efficiency. Manufacturers must balance flagship-level performance with design compactness, offering users a device that is as powerful as it is portable.
Beyond hardware, Generative AI (GenAI) is another key factor that could accelerate the adoption of foldables. With larger, tablet-sized displays, foldable smartphones are ideal for AI-powered features such as real-time editing, summarization, and content generation—tasks that previously required a PC.
