Oppo is reportedly working on its next-generation foldable phone, the Oppo Find N6. Last year, the Find N5 debuted as the first-ever foldable phone powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset. It is speculated that the Find N6, which is expected to launch by early 2026, will be the world’s first Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 foldable.

Oppo Find N6 key specifications (rumoured)

As per the leak, the Oppo Find N6 will have a 6.6-inch screen on the outside and an 8.1-inch foldable screen on the inside. While the device is said to be thinner and lighter than before, it is expected to pack a 6,000mAh+ battery.

The rear camera setup is said to be headlined by a 50-megapixel Sony LYT-808 main camera, which has a 1/1.4-inch sensor size. It will be joined by an ultra-wide lens (not mentioned in the leak), a thin periscope lens with 3x optical zoom support, and a multispectral sensor.

Like the Find X9 series, the Find N6 is expected to ship with Android 16 and ColorOS 16 preinstalled. It will have other specs such as the Plus key, a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, and wireless charging support. While the exact IP rating is not mentioned, it is said to offer full-level water resistance. This appears to be the same as the Find N5’s IPX8/9 rating. A previous leak claimed that the device will have a titanium build.

The tipster did not mention the Oppo Find N6’s launch timeframe. Likely, it will break cover in the first quarter of 2026.

Oppo hasn’t launched a flip phone since the Find N3 Flip, which was announced back in 2023. Next year, the brand is also expected to unveil the Find N6 Flip. However, there is no information about its launch timeframe.

The post Oppo Find N6 key specifications tipped, aiming to be world’s first Snapdragon 8 Elite 6 foldable phone appeared first on Gizmochina.

OPPO’s next flagship foldable smartphone, the Find N6, could become the world’s first foldable smartphone with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip. That is not surprising at all, actually.

The OPPO Find N6 could be the first foldable phone to use the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 SoC

The information comes from Digital Chat Station, one of China’s most prominent tipsters. He went to Weibo to share the information. The chip information is not the only detail he shared, though. The tipster shared the key specifications of the OPPO Find N6, actually.

He claims that the phone will feature an 8.1-inch main, foldable display. A 6.6-inch cover display will also be used. The phone is tipped to utilize a 6,000mAh+ silicon-carbon battery as well. It will once again have a much larger battery than what the Galaxy Z Fold 7 offers.

The cameras will also be improved

A 50-megapixel main camera (Sony’s LYT-808 sensor) is tipped. That is a 1/1.4-inch sensor size, by the way, and an improvement over what the Find N5 delivered. An ultrawide camera will also be used, but no details were shared. The third camera on the back will be a periscope telephoto unit (3x optical zoom), and there will be a multispectral sensor as well.

Android 16 will come pre-installed on the device, along with OPPO’s ColorOS 16 skin. A customizable button will replace the alert slider, while a side-facing fingerprint scanner will be included, too. It will double as power/lock key.

“Full water resistance” is also tipped

The tipster also claims that the phone will offer “full water resistance”, meaning full protection. We’re not sure what rating will it be exactly, but that’s good to hear.

Wireless charging will be supported too, as was on the Find N5. The last piece of information that the tipster shared has to do with weight and thickness. The OPPO Find N6 will be even thinner and lighter than its predecessor, which is immensely thin and light for a foldable of that size.

The OPPO Find N6 will probably arrive in Q1 2026. The Find N5 landed in February this year, so we’re expecting a similar timeframe for the launch of its successor. That’s not something that Digital Chat Station mentioned, however.
