It looked like an odd relocation, particularly after putting a lot cash into buying collapsible tech, however – complete stranger things have actually taken place in the mobile world.
This, nevertheless, isn’t. Taking place, that is. A minimum of when it concerns Oppo. The business connected to us to reject the abovementioned report, and guarantee us that its dedication to the advancement of future foldables hasn’t altered in any method. That’s excellent news and factor for us to breathe a sigh of relief.

Now we do not need to be, and can anticipate the OnePlus Open 2 and the Find N4 Flip.
Here’s the declaration an Oppo representative offered us on the matter:
Oppo’s commitment to the constant advancement of collapsible mobile phone innovation stays the same. Please remain tuned for our main updates and statements.
There you have it, crisis prevented. Ball’s now in your court, vivo.
