I've been lucky enough to work with Oppo ahead of the Oppo Find N3 launch in a consulting capacity, so you really shouldn't trust my review on the OnePlus Open or Oppo Find N3 to be totally objective. What you can trust is that I've used this phone for a really long time, know it inside out, and if I had to choose a single phone to be my ride or die, it would be the one of these two.
In case you don't know, the OPPO Find N3 and OnePlus Open are very similar phones. So much so they don't warrant two separate reviews on a channel that gets maybe four videos out a year. So check out this video to find out more about both these fantastic foldables, and if you've got any questions about either, just drop them in the comments section below.
Thanks for watching!

Thx for sharing. Would love to know the software differences of the Oppo and the Open.. is there any video you ve done comparing both? Thank you
thanks for a great review, i've read it can be quite poor in low light, especially moving subjects, do you know if this is true ?
I really want to pick up a new foldable as my Galaxy Fold 4 is starting to fail. Shall I get one of these or the Vivo X Fold 3 Pro. I am worried about software and all that however. Any advice ? Thanks a ton !
Thx for the review! But what is the difference between the chinese and global version of the find n3 fold?
No problem! The main user-interface differences are Chinese-language defaults and worse Google Services integration. So, the voice assistant is Breeno (Chinese) and I haven't figured out how to change it to Google Assistant. Also, you can't use Google Nearby Share on the Chinese model, and other native Google services might not work well. By contrast, I've been using a global (I think Malaysian model) as my primary phone for weeks and it's worked flawlessly. There may also be limitations with network bands as well - again, though, the Malaysian model worked across Europe and in the US for me with 5G, no issues. Hope that helps! Basil

Hello there, I was wondering if by any chance. Would you sell the Oppo? I would like yo buy it, I have always wanted so bad that phones, since it was released.
can you change this, so that the oppo runs like the one plus?@@tech_edit
Hi, I’m thinking about ordering Find N3 from China with shipping to Europe, would be much cheaper than Open but without my native language. Do you know whether N3 supports same bands like Open? And 2nd question - what is your opinion about good colour? Is the case from the box fine or not worth using it?
You should order from a country like Malaysia that supports Google services natively. Even if you install the Play Store on the Chinese model you'll have delayed notifications. If you do go for a Malaysian model your only additional colour option is gold. Hope that helps.
I have the oppo and it has 5G and wifi/internet calling.
@@tech_editnotifications are fine. The problem is you can't change the launcher and you can't really change the wallet to the Google wallet with pressing the power button twice. Also, no Google assistant. But ok . And no android car thing.
@@stel1000 also, things like nearby share don't work on the Chinese model.
@@tech_edit I don't know this at all. I usually use the oppo share and it actually is maybe faster than the airdrop on apple
You know what I trust, Baz? I trust your history, across all those channels. It speaks for itself. And I really enjoy the still photography on my OnePlus Open
Way too kind. Thanks so much, and wahay - hope your Open keeps being great! Basil
I'm still waiting for the right foldable but this looks like the time is coming fast! Love that there's finally some bespoke software, the multitasking apps approach is clever. And good to see that oppo is learning from oxygenOS.
How does the Open's camera perform with moving subjects, e.g. restless toddlers?! It's a crucial thing for me amd many others with phone cameras, but it's rarely touched upon. Thanks!
That's a good question. In bright environments it does a good job with dogs and moving people. The more aggressive computational photography relies on stillness to pull out superb lowlight shots, so I wouldn't bank on it freezing time well in darker scenes. When the lighting is abundant though, it's solid.
Also, there's the Hasselblad Pro Mode if you want to get geeky and up the shutter speed to zap the computational photography.
@@tech_edit thanks a lot Basil!
I came to know the difference between the two and am none the wiser
Admitting that you are probably biased means a lot it shows honestly so i trust your opinion more than if you said nothing
I like the Find N3, but the Huaei Mate X5 is my all time favorite once you add Google Services. Has every feature this has and more. Love it!

How is the crease didn't even see it in the video at any angle
Barely noticeable, especially set against the Z Fold 5
Are you guys back?
Like really back or will I see another vid in 6mo
🤣 brutal but fair. We're back.
@@tech_edit How is Tom doing? Do you keep in touch?
I do indeed - he's living the good life over here: instagram.com/tomi.tours/?igshid=OTk0YzhjMDVlZA%3D%3D
Both of them are the real make sense foldable. In form factor and size. Even the Multitasking feature that seems interesting 😅
Aren't they the same phone rebranded and with their own OS customization?
That's correct! Basil
Is there a difference in the camera processing between the two? Or identical? Many thanks.
I believe identical. Oppo and OnePlus Hasselblad plus HyperTone Imaging Engine.
@@tech_edit Thanks for the reply. Cameras seem really solid. I am torn between this and the vivo x100 pro.
@@tech_editno. They are not . The colors are different for sure. And they are not all clear (not same megapixels)
@@user-gj5bi8lu5qiphone 15 pro max or vivo. Better than the oppo.
Hey basil phones look great they are way out of my price range. So I'm hoping that 2024 is the year of the midrange foldable smart phone that's the challenge to make a foldable smart phone for 300-500 pounds and get a good product
This may happen with a flip phone, but I don't see it with a big-screen foldable. Would love to be proven wrong though! Thanks for the comment Jason
Why no one is talking about pen support. And I am finding it only now. I am literally looking for both display support, and samsung let me down for years. This is the biggest selling point for power users and neither Oppo neither Oneplus are talking about it :D are they that stupid? Spending millions on RnD of these and not mentioning pen support on the main page?
Bro it seems they both are compatible with the oppo pen
Is one plus open or oppo n3 support stylus??
Yes but only the Oppo Pen and OnePlus Stylo respectively
so whats the difference between oppo and one plus? is it the same ?
Yes

I have the Oppo Reno 10 Pro Plus and the zoom on it is better than the S23 Ultra.
That's awesome. I haven't used the 10 Pro Plus, but know that it does an incredible job on the Find N3. Oppo is really nailing it at the moment. Thanks for the comment! Basil
Stop it 😂😂 Only Vivo x100 pro challenges the might S23 Ultra. Stop it
They're identical phone but difference is where those foldable are sell
In Indonesia, Oppo Find N3 just launched like last month maybe. While OnePlus Open not
price
That depends on where you're based, but it's less than the Pixel Fold and Galaxy Z Fold 5, which makes it competitive for a foldable, but expensive compared to a traditional phone.
I've had both my Xperia 1v and the OnePlus open since their respective launch dates. I've hardly touched my 1v since I've received my Open. It's that good. The battery life on the OnePlus open is better than any phone I've ever had! The telephoto is even more satisfying to shoot with than he stated in the video
Thanks for the comment - also nice phone collection you've got there! But I couldn't agree more. The Open/Find N3 has totally won me over too. Basil
@@tech_edit1:57
Which is better?
The best one is the one available in your region as they are so similar. Both phones aren't available to buy in the same regions, so I would recommend buying the one that's officially available where you are. It will make sure you get the best after sale support. Hope that helps! Basil
@@tech_edit Thanks, both are available.
In that case, it's down to your favourite colour. The core experience is matched across both.
@@tech_editbut the Oppo is cheaper
These are the best foldable of 2023
I actually think these could be the best phones of 2023 too. Basil
No the best is the Honor V2 my friend
@@terminator9972 The Honor Magic V2 is the best when it only comes to thickness
The OnePlus One is the best when it comes to these aspects:
Hinge
Crease
Camera
Software
OnePlus Open beats Honor Magic V2 !
I have it , and writing this comment from it . Next to me i have the iPhone 15 pro max. The camera on the oppo is actually worse . And the colors are inconsistent from lens to lens. And the screen well maybe the outer screen is worse than the iphone. And the battery also is worse.
I like the title lol
Thanks Mark! I like your comment 💕
One plus open is amazing. Fact 😀
Had oppo, OnePlus and now Xiaomi, all great with OnePlus been the mediocre ones in comparison. Still good, better than others.
The slider is anything BUT useful, always slides in the pocket and missing calls. It's a pointless and irritating thing that they need to stop doing. Waste of time
Bbbbb or gfffftt सुशील ggfftgv😊 :😮😮😮😮😮😮😅@@wr😢 se yxtdzcs😅 way
omg chinese bussiness lol.
Over cost
Yes, it is expensive. But cheaper than the Z Fold 5 and Pixel Fold, so is competitive for a foldable. Thanks for the comment - Basil
I really wanted to buy the OnePlus Open, but ended up buying the same old iPhone 15 Pro Max!
Lol
You made a bad decision 😭
@@kendrelewis5465 For you, but not for me!😂
Good decision
@@markaznar1979 Thanks Mark! 👍🏻
Do not buy this brand, poor quality and customer service, especially this Find N3 model. The main screen has issue after 3 months and the customer service will put the blame on you for misuse of the phone and ask the customer responsible for the repair cost.
I will _always_ trust you. 🫡
