Oppo has launched its Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 challenger, Find N2 Flip, globally. Not only does the Find N2 Flip have more powerful core hardware, Oppo is also touting a better “folding” no-gap design with an almost invisible crease and largest-ever cover screen on a flip phone. The Find N2 Flip is a bit cheaper, too, at least internationally.
