OPPO confirmed the launch of the folding phone at MWC 2019

Samsung, Huawei and LG are the three companies that should launch foldable smartphones at the beginning of the year to come up. OPPO is the other company that will launch a foldable phone early next year. OPPO Product Manager Chuck Wang confirmed that the company would use the Mobile World Congress (MWC) Tech Expo 2019 platform in February to announce its first foldable smartphone. Wang only confirmed the arrival of the OPPO foldable phone without sharing information about its specifications and its release date. As a result, there is no indication that OPPO's foldable phone will be equipped with a foldaway design such as the foldable Samsung phone or a fold-out design such as the folding phone from Huawei. A report that was released a few months ago suggested that Samsung could allow OPPO and Xiaomi to use its Infinity Flex display. As a result, the OPPO foldable phone may support integrated system design. Wang revealed that the company would launch its first 5G smartphone in the first six months of 2019. It is expected that the future smartphone of the Find series endowed flagship specifications support 5G connectivity. Europe will be the first market to receive it.

The other essential information shared by Wang is that the company is working on a new integrated front-end camera design on the screen. Recent reports have revealed that other Chinese smartphones, such as Xiaomi and Lenovo, also work on smartphones with a foldable display. So it seems that 2019 will be the year of foldable screens. From here the second half of the year, more phones can support 5G connectivity. (source | via)
