Oppo has confirmed that its next flagship foldable, the Oppo Find N7, is set to arrive in Europe, marking a notable shift in the company's regional strategy after the Find N6 was never officially launched on the continent.
The news comes from an interview with one of Oppo's regional product managers, who spoke to local publication Nixanbal about the planned European release. The confirmation suggests that Oppo is now feeling more confident about competing directly with major rivals such as Apple and Samsung in the fast-growing wide foldable segment.
The Oppo Find N6, despite being regarded as one of the strongest foldable smartphones on the market, never received an official launch in Europe, even though it was sold in other international markets. With the Find N7, Oppo appears to be changing that approach and positioning the device as a proper contender in the region.
Early reports indicate that the Find N7 will keep the wide-aspect-ratio design language that has become a signature feature of the series. The phone is also rumored to pack a larger 6,500 mAh battery, an increase of 500 mAh over its predecessor, which could mean stronger endurance for power users.
On the camera front, the Find N7 is expected to feature a substantial triple-camera system made up of a 200MP main sensor, a 50MP ultrawide lens, and a 50MP periscope telephoto unit. If accurate, that would make it one of the more capable foldable cameras available in Europe.
The move also fits into Oppo's broader push into the premium segment, following the arrival of the Find X9 Ultra and the current availability of the Find X10 and Pro Max models. Recent reports even suggest that the Find X10 Ultra may make its way to Europe as well, reinforcing the company's intent to compete at the top end of the market.
However, buyers may need to wait a while longer. Since the Find N6 launched in March this year, the Find N7 is expected to follow a similar timeline and could arrive in Europe around the same time next year.
