Oppo is making a new foldable phone with a wider screen, and leaks say it will be called the Oppo Find N7.

This phone is expected to launch in the first three months of 2027, which means it will come out after Apple’s first wide-form foldable iPhone and around the time Samsung is expected to release a wider Galaxy Z Fold 8. This fits a growing trend where phone makers are moving from square inner screens to wider displays that feel more like normal phones when you open them.
A recent leak from Chinese tipster Digital Chat Station says Oppo’s new foldable will use a new seamless hinge made to make the crease on the screen almost invisible when the phone is open.
Oppo has already shown it can do this: the Find N6, launched in March 2026, got a “zero-feel crease” certification after the company used laser scanning and 3D liquid printing to smooth the hinge surface to just 0.05mm. The Find N7 is expected to improve on this with a new hinge that tries to make the crease even less visible.
Inside, the Find N7 is likely to use Qualcomm’s upcoming 2nm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 series chip, which is newer than the Gen 5 chip in the Find N6. The leak says the phone will have a 7.6-inch foldable inner screen and a 5.5-inch cover screen on the outside, and the panels may come from Samsung Display or BOE.

These sizes are different from the Find N6, which has an 8.12-inch inner OLED screen and a 6.62-inch AMOLED cover screen, so the N7 will feel more compact when folded but still wide when opened.
The Find N7 is expected to bring clear upgrades over the current Find N6, which already has strong specs: a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, a Hasselblad-tuned camera system with a 200MP main sensor, and a 6,000mAh battery with 80W wired and 50W wireless charging.

The N6 also has four rear cameras including ultrawide and telephoto lenses, plus IPX7 dust protection and ColorOS 16 based on Android 16. Exact camera and battery numbers for the Find N7 are not confirmed yet, but the leak suggests it will be a flagship phone focused on a smoother fold, a wider screen, and faster performance.
If the timeline is correct, the Oppo Find N7 will join Samsung and Apple in the new “wide foldable” trend, where inner screens are broader and more like regular phones instead of square. For people who want a foldable that feels closer to a normal smartphone when opened, this new design could be a big step forward.
The first-quarter-2027 launch window also gives Oppo time to improve the hinge and display before it sells the phone, aiming to make the crease so subtle that it is nearly impossible to see in daily use.
