Oppo Find N4 Flip Launch Date Delayed
Flip smartphones are not new to Oppo. The manufacturer has already released two flip smartphones Oppo Flip N2 and Oppo Flip N3 in a time interval of just eight months. The Flip N2 was launched in December 2022 while the Flip N3 followed suit in August 2023.
Even though it is close to six months since the release of the Oppo Flip N3, the same tipster states that the manufacturer is not yet done with the Oppo Flip N4 and work on the smartphone has slowed down. The launch will take place only in the second half of 2024.
