00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:05.160
just 2 months ago I got the OnePlus open and I thought it was the best folding

00:00:03.320 --> 00:00:10.400
phone you could buy but it turns out I am a fool because Oppo has released the

00:00:07.319 --> 00:00:12.840
find N5 and it looks better in every way

00:00:10.400 --> 00:00:18.080
it's thinner it's more powerful it has wireless charging and I miss wireless

00:00:15.240 --> 00:00:21.920
charging so much but what's in the box we have an 80 W charger in the box with

00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:28.679
a plug that we cannot use here in North America we also have a nice little

00:00:24.960 --> 00:00:31.720
cardboard box with a case and a USB-C

00:00:28.679 --> 00:00:35.360
TOA cable as super vuk technology uses

00:00:31.720 --> 00:00:38.000
usba a for ultimate power I guess and I

00:00:35.360 --> 00:00:43.520
got to say the case that looks pretty nice it's like a a faux leather uh AKA

00:00:40.960 --> 00:00:47.000
plastic in white nice little flexible hinge pretty neat on the front of the

00:00:45.640 --> 00:00:51.920
paper wrap here we have all of the warnings about how folding screens are

00:00:49.920 --> 00:00:55.559
fragile to be careful do not press your nails into it or use sharp objects on it

00:00:54.640 --> 00:01:03.280
which makes sense you shouldn't be putting sharp things on any phone in fact uh my OnePlus open has scrap

00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:06.000
matches all over the camera and the back

00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:08.720
of the phone uh Which is less than ideal especially when folding phones don't

00:01:07.240 --> 00:01:11.840
have a ton of case options if you don't like the white one that was included and

00:01:10.280 --> 00:01:15.840
I bring up the OnePlus open a lot because Oppo actually owns OnePlus and

00:01:14.119 --> 00:01:20.799
this is just a rebranded version of the N4 so this is probably going to have

00:01:18.400 --> 00:01:29.040
similar successes and problems but a major success is the design this baby is

00:01:25.159 --> 00:01:31.240
thin at only a millimeter thicker than

00:01:29.040 --> 00:01:35.799
an iPhone or a Samsung phone uh if you don't count with the camera bump it

00:01:33.000 --> 00:01:40.280
feels amazing in the hand just like a traditional slab phone uh comparing it

00:01:37.920 --> 00:01:44.840
to the OnePlus open it feels substantially thinner and when you

00:01:41.720 --> 00:01:47.200
compare to an iPhone it truly is not

00:01:44.840 --> 00:01:51.320
that much thicker in fact they say it's thinner than a pencil when open and uh I

00:01:49.759 --> 00:01:56.880
would believe it because you know pencils are thick you know you don't write very often but almost thinner when

00:01:57.039 --> 00:02:05.039
closed definitely thinner when open they say 8.93 mm when folded and 4.21 mm when

00:02:03.439 --> 00:02:08.560
unfolded but we're going to put that to the test I really want to check how big

00:02:06.479 --> 00:02:11.080
it is with the camera bump as again comparing to the old phone it makes a

00:02:10.160 --> 00:02:15.560
big difference when you're sliding something in and out of your pocket if there is a big bump to kind of account

00:02:13.879 --> 00:02:19.200
for I got to be careful it's a sharp object what does it say

00:02:17.680 --> 00:02:23.599
4.53 interesting liars and with the camera

00:02:21.959 --> 00:02:30.360
bump 8.91 I don't know okay how about folded

00:02:27.560 --> 00:02:33.280
141 so it's not the finished device in the world but again when you're

00:02:31.160 --> 00:02:37.200
comparing it to its contemporaries it is quite thin they also say it's as light

00:02:34.519 --> 00:02:40.519
as a coffee cup at 229 G and that one I believe it is quite light anyways let's

00:02:39.200 --> 00:02:44.159
go over buttons on the right side when it's closed at least you have your power

00:02:42.519 --> 00:02:49.720
button and fingerprint scanner a volume rocker and the alert slider for vibrate

00:02:47.640 --> 00:02:55.400
uh silent and ring on the bottom we have our USB 3.1 Gen 2 some speakers mic

00:02:52.720 --> 00:03:01.080
holes and SIM tray on the top more speakers more mic holes and on the left

00:02:58.319 --> 00:03:05.920
side it is our titanium tum flexion hinge which feels quite good it's a

00:03:03.799 --> 00:03:10.920
little stiff but it's you know new I wouldn't say it's anything too uncomfortable and it keeps its position

00:03:09.400 --> 00:03:15.959
at a lot of different angles like look how close that is to closing that's crazy another really eye-catching thing

00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:19.799
about this phone is the back of it it has a large camera bump but it's kind of

00:03:17.519 --> 00:03:23.440
subtly raised it's curved up into the bump of it which I think gives it a much

00:03:21.720 --> 00:03:28.040
more subtle Look it's even hard to catch on camera but it looks quite nice and

00:03:26.040 --> 00:03:31.560
the back of it is the Misty white and it looks kind of like a marbley Milky

00:03:29.799 --> 00:03:36.439
texture but it is just glass it's not the kind of pleather or anything like that and I do prefer that and with the

00:03:34.760 --> 00:03:40.200
contrasting Oppo logo I think it looks really nice it does also come in Cosmic

00:03:38.439 --> 00:03:43.120
Black if you like a darker phone but I think this looks quite nice even as

00:03:41.519 --> 00:03:47.640
somebody who usually does take the black phone option and then we have our inner

00:03:44.640 --> 00:03:50.400
screen which is 8.12 in and is a

00:03:47.640 --> 00:03:55.360
fingerprint magnet it is an ultra thin glass on the inside of the phone but

00:03:52.480 --> 00:04:00.519
that is pretty much just plastic and it feels fine when you're using it but as

00:03:57.599 --> 00:04:03.840
somebody with uh sweaty Palm s it does feel a little bit tacky so your finger

00:04:02.040 --> 00:04:07.439
does drag a little bit which it does feel odd the other important thing about

00:04:05.120 --> 00:04:11.120
the inner screen is the crease and I have to say it looks amazing of course

00:04:09.560 --> 00:04:14.159
when I shine in the light here you can see it in all of its Glory but when

00:04:13.000 --> 00:04:20.000
you're actually watching content or you're looking at it at a different angle you barely see it and it sounds

00:04:18.440 --> 00:04:22.919
like it'll be really noticeable and you'll be able to feel it but you truly

00:04:21.560 --> 00:04:25.800
cannot once you get your hands on this kind of thing it feels so good

00:04:24.840 --> 00:04:32.120
especially when you compare it to some of the competition like I find the Samsung Galaxy fold series you can see

00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:35.160
the crease quite a bit and feel it but this one here not at all but if you

00:04:33.800 --> 00:04:41.280
don't need a giant screen you can just fold it close and you get a more traditional 6.62 in screen and this is

00:04:39.919 --> 00:04:45.280
just regular glass like the phone in your pocket if the phone in your pocket

00:04:43.039 --> 00:04:49.240
is big it is quite a large phone it's not too wide so you can still you know

00:04:47.520 --> 00:04:53.360
hold it in one hand but reaching you got to do the little the little finger

00:04:51.080 --> 00:04:58.160
balance thing that's quite treacherous if you're not a experienced phone user

00:04:55.600 --> 00:05:01.639
like myself but a phone is so much more than screens that aren't turned on

00:04:59.840 --> 00:05:04.880
there's battery life there's specs there's performance and we're going to

00:05:03.160 --> 00:05:10.199
learn all about those after we talk about our sponsor Corsair the modular

00:05:07.400 --> 00:05:14.440
design of their frame 4000 DK system means that you can put together your

00:05:11.639 --> 00:05:18.800
dream PC the way you want to want to switch out the front IO panel for more

00:05:16.360 --> 00:05:23.759
USB ports go for it want to throw a reverse connection motherboard in there

00:05:20.680 --> 00:05:26.800
why not is 1 360 mm rad not enough for

00:05:23.759 --> 00:05:28.759
you heck throw in another plus their

00:05:26.800 --> 00:05:35.600
infini raal fan mounting system lets you easily Mount fans exactly where you want

00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:37.560
them check it out today at lm. g/ 4000d

00:05:35.600 --> 00:05:43.080
or by clicking our Link in the video description this phone isn't just flashy

00:05:40.080 --> 00:05:46.360
it's also a Powerhouse of specs we have

00:05:43.080 --> 00:05:48.560
16 gigs of RAM 512 gigs of storage a

00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:52.560
Snapdragon 8 Elite mobile processor though to note it is a seven core

00:05:50.560 --> 00:05:56.199
version of the processor not the 8 core that can be found in other flagships

00:05:53.919 --> 00:06:03.800
like uh the newest Samsung stuff and it has a 5600 milliamp hour battery in this

00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:07.319
thin of a phone crazy how did they fit so much battery in there we'll never

00:06:05.560 --> 00:06:10.440
know but what we do know is how the battery performed we had Labs take a

00:06:09.000 --> 00:06:16.520
look and with our standard battery endurance test it was able to get 18 hours and 43 minutes which is on par

00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:20.800
with other flagships which is good you know it's a thin phone it's got a big

00:06:18.080 --> 00:06:24.639
screen two of them and yet it still did just as well as any other phone I find

00:06:22.440 --> 00:06:27.240
with my OnePlus phone it also lasts me well throughout the day so it really

00:06:26.160 --> 00:06:33.120
shouldn't be an issue and with the included charger we were able to charge it from 0 to 100% in just over an hour

00:06:31.319 --> 00:06:37.080
enough about battery bill you only want to talk about battery okay we'll watch

00:06:35.160 --> 00:06:43.520
some content settle down the cover screen is 2616 by 1140 resolution which

00:06:40.360 --> 00:06:46.000
is full HD Plus and it looks great and

00:06:43.520 --> 00:06:51.039
bright this is not even 100% brightness we're just under halfway and it still

00:06:48.360 --> 00:06:55.440
looks so bright and Punchy in fact they claim it's 1600 nits Peak when used

00:06:53.080 --> 00:06:59.240
indoors and 2,450 nits when used outdoors and Labs was able to measure

00:06:57.160 --> 00:07:05.280
about 1,600 nits in SDR but only just under 2100 nits in HDR on the internal

00:07:03.240 --> 00:07:08.599
screen oh you just get so much more real estate when you use this inner screen

00:07:06.639 --> 00:07:13.039
this one here is QHD Plus on the inside and it's rated for 1,400 nits when use

00:07:10.560 --> 00:07:18.000
indoors and 2100 nits when use Outdoors but we actually got 1,700 nits in SDR

00:07:15.440 --> 00:07:20.440
and just under 2,000 nits when using HDR which isn't bad you might notice that

00:07:19.479 --> 00:07:25.160
the cover screen is a little bit brighter which you might be wondering why it could be that the internal

00:07:23.280 --> 00:07:28.599
screens harder to drive but what really matters is that when you're Outdoors

00:07:26.440 --> 00:07:32.440
walking around you're probably using the smaller screen so being brighter just

00:07:30.120 --> 00:07:36.080
means it's easier to use in sunlight one odd thing we notice is that when you

00:07:33.680 --> 00:07:39.919
have auto brightness off the brightness will still increase we actually reached

00:07:38.520 --> 00:07:44.080
out to O about that to see if there was a problem with our software but they say

00:07:41.759 --> 00:07:47.440
it's on purpose it'll set the minimum brightness to whatever you put the bar

00:07:45.400 --> 00:07:51.479
at but if you go outside they want you to still see your phone so it allows the

00:07:49.479 --> 00:07:54.639
brightness to continue getting brighter I've never really seen that before but

00:07:52.840 --> 00:08:00.759
it's kind of Handy but it doesn't matter if your content looks great if it sounds

00:07:56.599 --> 00:08:00.759
awful let's check out these speakers

00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:06.840
sounds pretty good it could be a little louder but what's nice is it's not

00:08:04.800 --> 00:08:10.159
distorted I've used some phones that sound a little crunchy when it hits the

00:08:08.479 --> 00:08:14.280
peak of the speaker but let's see if it sounds any different when it's open

00:08:11.520 --> 00:08:18.280
maybe there's inner speakers I'm not quite

00:08:18.280 --> 00:08:23.199
sure nope sounds pretty much the same what's nice is that where you hold the

00:08:21.720 --> 00:08:30.199
phone you'll kind of end up naturally cupping the speaker so it'll be more angled towards you but nothing crazy but

00:08:27.319 --> 00:08:35.760
what I love about my OnePlus open is is gaming man having a bigger screen truly

00:08:32.479 --> 00:08:38.039
is gamechanging literally let's play

00:08:35.760 --> 00:08:42.200
some batro look at this having all the space to play your little mobile games

00:08:39.880 --> 00:08:46.680
is amazing and these days most games will just naturally adapt to your screen

00:08:43.919 --> 00:08:51.279
size though if they don't fold it shut swipe up and now you're playing your

00:08:48.640 --> 00:08:55.880
game as if it was a regular candy bar size phone where every Apple work really

00:08:54.160 --> 00:09:00.600
really nice to have and when Labs checked out the performance they said it was pretty darn good it matches most

00:08:58.920 --> 00:09:05.440
performance expect from a flagship though a little worse than the latest Samsung with it having on less core I

00:09:04.120 --> 00:09:10.760
think that makes sense but we did find only operates at 50 to 65% when you're

00:09:08.079 --> 00:09:14.680
doing kind of high stressful or more intense benchmarking it seems to

00:09:12.480 --> 00:09:19.079
throttle quite a bit and it could be thermals with how thin it is there's

00:09:16.880 --> 00:09:24.800
only so much space to get rid of that heat so it makes sense most people also

00:09:22.600 --> 00:09:29.399
aren't bench marking their phone so will you notice probably not especially with

00:09:26.920 --> 00:09:32.920
how smooth the OS feels this is a 1 Herz to 120 HZ screen and it feels great

00:09:31.880 --> 00:09:37.839
though you won't be able to tell on camera and speaking of cameras this has

00:09:35.000 --> 00:09:43.600
plenty it has a 50 megap main camera a 50 megapix Periscope and an 8 megapix

00:09:40.720 --> 00:09:47.640
wide angle why the wide angle has less uh I I don't know but do you use ultra

00:09:46.200 --> 00:09:53.079
wide that often I don't think it needs to be high-rise all right we took some pictures of uh producer James today I

00:09:51.760 --> 00:09:57.279
got to say the ultra wide looks pretty good it does get a little soft when you

00:09:55.279 --> 00:10:00.000
really zoom into it 8 megapixels is putting in work and this is a very

00:09:58.839 --> 00:10:07.079
challenging set up with the studio lights and shooting directly into it but these zooms they're solid

00:10:04.079 --> 00:10:09.079
considering oh wow the main is much more

00:10:07.079 --> 00:10:12.800
contrasty really cut through that light and it looks pretty good again it's a

00:10:10.760 --> 00:10:17.000
little soft maybe there's some kind of automatic AI editing on it but not bad

00:10:14.880 --> 00:10:20.839
at all I fun with again my OnePlus phone the photos are good but that's not all

00:10:19.360 --> 00:10:24.800
the cameras we actually have two selfie cameras one on the inside here and one

00:10:22.600 --> 00:10:30.000
on the cover screen both whole punches and both 8 megapixels this is such a

00:10:27.680 --> 00:10:32.880
weird photo how do you how do you take a selfie with this thing and not look

00:10:30.959 --> 00:10:37.880
weird you know what like the other cameras these are good they are very

00:10:36.000 --> 00:10:42.040
wide it almost looks a little un natural but you'll fit all your friends in the

00:10:39.600 --> 00:10:45.120
photos and video very good holy smokes this is

00:10:42.839 --> 00:10:48.639
steady that is one thing I had is with my OnePlus phone is people would ask me

00:10:46.680 --> 00:10:52.639
what I filmed with because of how steady it was and this is no different man that

00:10:50.720 --> 00:10:56.560
video looks really really good my quality only okay but you heard it now

00:10:55.000 --> 00:11:03.360
it's time to talk software as that's what you're actually going to be using every day and this is color o 15 which

00:11:00.200 --> 00:11:07.839
is based on Android 15 and it's got all

00:11:03.360 --> 00:11:08.720
the features you want ai ai ai ai and AI

00:11:07.839 --> 00:11:13.079
but they also have a bunch of multitasking options which is really important when you have a screen this

00:11:11.720 --> 00:11:17.720
big like being able to split the screen with two fingers and open multiple apps

00:11:15.000 --> 00:11:23.519
like uh Google TV everyone's favorite app uh or being able to open floating

00:11:19.800 --> 00:11:26.000
Windows and split screens and uh multi-

00:11:23.519 --> 00:11:31.320
Windows and boundless view there really is everything you could ever want and

00:11:28.160 --> 00:11:33.000
more uh which I guess is good to have it

00:11:31.320 --> 00:11:36.560
can feel a little bit overwhelming but if you don't want it just don't use it I

00:11:34.959 --> 00:11:41.440
guess I actually find myself using the regular app split screen quite a lot

00:11:39.240 --> 00:11:44.000
being able to copy one thing to another app is really convenient or when I'm

00:11:42.680 --> 00:11:48.440
adding stuff to my calendar being able to read my email to make sure I'm entering it all correctly super useful

00:11:47.360 --> 00:11:54.399
I'm hoping to get the level of brain rout where I have YouTube up on one quarter uh Subway Surfers on another and

00:11:52.440 --> 00:11:58.639
a podcast playing in another corner but I'm not quite there yet but there is one

00:11:56.519 --> 00:12:02.720
feature I really want to try and that's the remote Mac control that lets you

00:12:00.839 --> 00:12:06.639
transfer files and such from your Mac to your phone but also use your phone to

00:12:05.000 --> 00:12:12.440
control your macc's keyboard and trackpad setting this up is a little

00:12:09.959 --> 00:12:15.480
nerve-wracking it ask for a lot of permissions and when I installed the o

00:12:14.279 --> 00:12:19.120
plus connect software you need to actually use this feature like three

00:12:17.519 --> 00:12:24.480
notifications rushed in the screen saying that new things were going to be able to launch when I turn on my Mac

00:12:22.199 --> 00:12:29.600
which uh I guess is it problem cuz this is my work laptop whoa okay so you can

00:12:27.279 --> 00:12:34.040
see the laptop screen and here I have what looks like a magic mouse to drag

00:12:31.560 --> 00:12:38.440
around to click on stuff which is pretty funny it's not the most elegant solution

00:12:36.120 --> 00:12:43.240
it is connecting through the internet so I guess I hope I'm the only one

00:12:40.199 --> 00:12:45.399
accessing this right now but it is I

00:12:43.240 --> 00:12:50.560
guess nice to have like we can see it live moving here and that's cool I don't

00:12:49.480 --> 00:12:57.120
know I don't know if I'm really fully sold on this dream when things like team

00:12:53.160 --> 00:12:59.160
viewer parek third option already exist

00:12:57.120 --> 00:13:03.000
why would I trust Oppo to have all this information in my computer and now I

00:13:00.880 --> 00:13:07.399
have to ask it to remove it all so overall this is a pretty impressive

00:13:04.800 --> 00:13:13.320
little package it has Wi-Fi 7 Bluetooth 5.4 the fast refresh rate the huge

00:13:09.560 --> 00:13:16.040
battery the thinness wireless charging

00:13:13.320 --> 00:13:19.680
it should have everything I want yet I can't buy it well I can't buy it

00:13:18.279 --> 00:13:23.320
straight from Oppo it they're only selling it in markets other than the US

00:13:21.360 --> 00:13:26.760
and Europe but it does use Google Play services and maybe it supports bands in

00:13:25.279 --> 00:13:31.120
your region you'll have to look that up but this is actually cheaper than the

00:13:28.560 --> 00:13:36.639
competition the Samsung Galaxy Zed fold 6 is $220 before any promotion Samsung

00:13:35.000 --> 00:13:41.399
loves putting stuff on sale when this converted to US is only

00:13:39.279 --> 00:13:44.920
1,870 is so if you have a friend overseas it might be worth seeing if

00:13:43.160 --> 00:13:47.760
they can smuggle one over for you but what do you think would you get one of

00:13:46.480 --> 00:13:51.160
these if you could and would you allow it to control your MacBook let us know

00:13:49.600 --> 00:13:59.920
down below and if you like this video why don't you check out our video on the Galaxy Zed fold 6 Elijah was pretty

00:13:55.040 --> 00:13:59.920
impressed with it but I don't know
