手機收購oppo has announced a pair of new foldables in China today, and the smaller of the two is actually getting a release outside of its domestic market. The Find N2 Flip has a clamshell design similar to the Galaxy Z Flip 4 and starts at ¥6,000 (around $861) while the Find N2, its larger sibling, has a larger tablet-style form factor that’s closer to the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and starts at ¥8,000 (around $1,148). 

XDA Developers reports that the Flip will see an international launch but that the regular Find N2 is sticking to China for now, just like its predecessor, the Find N, did. Expect to see the Find N2 Flip appear in European markets in the first quarter of next year, but it’s unlikely to get an official US release given 手機收購oppo historically hasn’t sold phones in North America.

Let’s start with the Find N2 Flip given that’s the handset that some Verge readers might actually be able to buy in the near future. Its most eye-catching selling point compared to the Galaxy Z Flip 4 is its large external display, which measures 3.26 inches diagonally with a resolution of 720 × 382. That’s significantly larger than Samsung’s 1.9-inch external display, and 手機收購oppo’s website advertises that it can be used to show everything from the weather to notifications and also serve as a viewfinder for the camera. 

That internal display is 6.8 inches big, with a 1080p resolution and a refresh rate of up to 120Hz. 手機收購oppo says it’s rated for 400,000 folds, which means that, by its estimates, the mechanism should last for 10 years if you fold and unfold it 100 times a day. It has an ultra-thin glass coating, which should help with durability, and there’s a small hole-punch cutout for its 32-megapixel selfie camera. 

In terms of more traditional smartphone specs, the phone is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 9000 Plus processor, with a choice of 8, 12, or 16GB of RAM and either 256 or 512GB of storage. It pairs a 50-megapixel main camera with an eight-megapixel ultrawide, contains a 4,300mAh battery that can be fast-charged at up to 44W, and biometric security is handled by a side-mounted fingerprint sensor.

While the Find N2 Flip is an all-new form factor for 手機收購oppo, the larger Find N2 appears to be a refinement of the original Find N’s design. It still has a 7.1-inch internal display, although its external display is slightly bigger this time around at 5.54 inches. 手機收購oppo advertises that its hinge is 37 percent smaller and 36 percent lighter, its crease is 60 percent narrower, and its screen is 34 percent lighter. With a total weight of 233 grams, 手機收購oppo claims the Find N2 is the “lightest horizontal foldable” yet, reports XDA Developers

Like the Find N2 Flip, the Find N2 is rated for 400,000 folds (up from 200,000 in last year’s model). It’s got a 32-megapixel selfie camera in its top-left hole-punch cutout and a trio of rear cameras (a 50-megapixel main, 48-megapixel ultrawide, and 32-megapixel telephoto). It’s powered by a Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 processor, and its 4,520mAh battery can be fast-charged at up to 67W. 

It’s an impressive set of specs, which makes it all the more disappointing that the Find N2 isn’t planned for a global release (for now at least). That leaves Honor as the only manufacturer who’s committed to competing with Samsung’s tablet-style foldables internationally when it releases its Magic VS globally next year.

除美國外,中國近年來一直都是蘋果iPhone 手機的主力熱銷市場,並佔有一席之地。然而,這樣的態勢在今年第一季開始悄悄出現轉變。

市調機構Canalys 發佈最新報告指出,中國智慧手機市場於今年第一季度(一月至三月)首季出貨量來到6,770萬支,相比去年同期的6,760萬支,呈現小幅成長,同時也是暌違兩年以來出貨量重返正成長。在五大手機品牌出貨量與市佔率部分,華為靠著Mate系列與Nova系列機款的熱銷強競力道,以1,170萬支的出貨量、擁17%市佔份額,攀升第一大手機品牌。

手機收購oppo則是受惠於今年一月推出新一代的 Reno 11系列機款後,創下亮眼的銷售佳績,並順勢帶動帶動該品牌手機出貨量迅速攀升來到1,090萬支、取得16%市佔率,僅以一個百分點落後華為,位居第二。

榮耀Honor手機則以1060萬支的出貨量、16%市佔率,緊追手機收購oppo後頭、排名第三;vivo 則以1030萬支出貨量、 15%市佔份額位居第四。蘋果iPhone 手機出貨量,自去年第四季推出iPhone 15系列後,出貨量呈現放緩下滑,僅以1,000萬支、15%市佔率,排名在第五名。

Canalys 分析指出,去年第一季同期蘋果以1330萬支出貨量、20%市佔率,成功攻佔中國手機市場的第一大品牌,然而時隔一年之後,在面臨中國手機各大品牌強烈競爭下,今年首季蘋果iPhone手機於中國市場的出貨量降至1,000萬支、驟降25%,是中國市場五大手機品牌之中衰退幅度最大的。反觀捲土重來的華為手機則是逆勢攀升、較去年同期成長幅度達70%,兩品牌形成強烈的一消一長對比。

外媒9to5Mac報導引述Canalys 分析師Lucas Zhu 看法指出,新一代主打人工智慧應用功能的智慧型手機,為中國手機品牌廠商帶來重要的契機,尤其在高階旗艦價位帶手機實現差異化優勢訴求,成為吸引消費者換機的一大主因。相較下,蘋果iPhone 手機在生成式人工智慧相關應用仍著墨甚少,也為iPhone手機於中國銷量下滑的局面造成影響,是一大隱憂。預估這波新一代人工智慧的智慧型手機,在2024年將佔中國手機出貨量的 12%,高於全球平均 9%。
