Fast rising tech brand OPPO has confirmed the Irish arrival of its first fun and compact clamshell foldable - called Find N2 Flip.
It is the first OPPO phone to offer four years of major ColorOS updates and five years of Android security updates.
This follows a similar guarantee from sister company OnePlus for its new OnePlus 11 smartphone.

Find N2 Flip is the first foldable OPPO is releasing outside of China to global markets.
The firm said its unique selling points include the largest cover screen on a flip-style foldable and a long-lasting, fast-charging battery.
OPPO Find N2 Flip key features
OPPO said it is raising the benchmark for future flip phones with Find N2 Flip thanks to what it calls a New Generation Flexion Hinge.
The firm said the phone offers the clearest preview of your selfies on a flip phone with its 3.26in cover screen, the largest on any flip phone.
The company said its vertical orientation allows the Cover Screen to display up to six notifications in one view.
Users will be able to quickly reply to messages in mainstream messenger apps, toggle settings, record a voice note, answer a call and more – all without opening their phone.
When flipped open, users will enjoy a dazzling 6.8in E6 AMOLED display with a widescreen 21:9 aspect ratio and super-smooth 120Hz adaptive refresh rate.
OPPO has included the largest battery of any flip phone at launch and its SUPERVOOC flash charging means it will be the fastest charging flip phone on the Irish market.
Find N2 Flip’s flagship 50MP main camera features a large Sony IMX890 sensor with an f/1.8 lens – a strong foundation for incredible imaging.
The rear camera system will use the same Hasselblad camera tech found on the likes of OPPO’s Find X5 Pro and Reno 8 Pro.
It is driven by the MediaTek Dimensity 9000+ chipset.
“Our research into foldable smartphones began in early 2018, and in 2021 we surprised and delighted our customers with the launch of our first foldable phone, the Find N, which offered an almost invisible crease and OPPO’s advanced Flexion Hinge,” Pete Lau, SVP and chief product officer at OPPO, said.
“With the Find N2 Flip we take foldables from the fringes to the forefront in a compact, sleek, awesome way, and we’re now ready to share this new benchmark with the world.”
Pricing and availability
OPPO Find N2 Flip will be going on sale in the UK and other European markets from March 2. The company said it will be available in Ireland "later this year." In the UK, OPPO Find N2 Flip will be available in Astral Black and Moonlight Purple for £849.
