Oppo is reportedly developing a new foldable and a pocket gimbal camera

News in short

  • Oppo is reportedly developing a new foldable phone with a wider inner display and a 200-megapixel camera.
  • The rumoured foldable could use a 2nm Snapdragon flagship chipset and a crease-free display.
  • A second handset may feature a 16:9 display, narrow bezels and a MediaTek Dimensity 9-series processor.
  • Oppo is also said to be working on a pocket-sized gimbal camera for a possible late-2026 launch.
  • The company has not confirmed the products, specifications or launch timelines.

Oppo could be preparing to expand its product portfolio beyond its established smartphone categories. A new leak points to a wide-screen foldable phone, another handset with an unusual 16:9 display and a pocket-sized gimbal camera.

The reported plans suggest that Oppo may be exploring new form factors as well as a dedicated camera product. The move could put the company in a new segment currently associated with compact creator cameras. However, all three products remain unconfirmed.

Oppo’s rumoured foldable could feature a 200-megapixel camera

Tipster Digital Chat Station claims that Oppo is developing a wide-screen foldable phone powered by a 2nm Snapdragon AI flagship chipset. The device is also tipped to feature an inner display with a crease-free design.

Imaging could be another major focus. The leak points to a 200-megapixel camera with gimbal imaging capabilities. The tipster says the handset is ready, but has not shared a launch window.

Oppo has not confirmed whether this device belongs to its Find N foldable series. It is also too early to establish the final camera configuration or the display technology. The reported crease-free panel should therefore be treated as an early claim, not a confirmed feature.

A second Oppo phone may take a different display approach

The same tipster has pointed to another handset in development. This phone is said to feature a wider-than-usual 16:9 display with narrow bezels. Oppo could power it with a MediaTek Dimensity 9-series flagship chipset.

The device is also tipped to include a 200-megapixel camera with a large sensor. However, the leak does not reveal its name, screen size or intended market. There is no launch timeline for this handset either.

Oppo may challenge DJI and Insta360 with a pocket gimbal camera

Perhaps the most unusual product in the report is a pocket-sized gimbal camera. Oppo is reportedly targeting a launch towards the end of 2026. The leak does not offer details about its sensor, video capabilities, stabilisation system or design.

If it reaches the market, the camera could place Oppo in competition with DJI’s Osmo Pocket range and Insta360’s compact cameras. These products appeal to vloggers and creators who want stabilised footage from a device they can carry easily.

Oppo’s entry could make this category more competitive. But a successful product would need more than a compact body. Image quality, stabilisation, audio options, battery life and software support would all influence its appeal. None of these details are known about Oppo’s rumoured camera yet.

Find X11 Pro Max could inherit planned flagship hardware

The reported product expansion comes amid claims that Oppo has shelved the Find X10 Ultra. Some hardware developed for that phone could reportedly move to the Find X11 Pro Max instead.

Earlier leaks have pointed to a 200-megapixel main camera and a 2K display with a 144Hz refresh rate for the rumoured Find X11 Pro Max. A 100-megapixel square selfie camera has also been mentioned. However, the phone may not receive the 10x periscope telephoto camera reportedly planned for the Find X10 Ultra.

For now, Oppo has not confirmed the cancellation or the reported hardware changes. The latest leak also does not establish whether the foldable, second handset and gimbal camera will launch globally or in India.

Oppo’s reported plans point to a broader push into premium devices and creator-focused hardware. The pocket gimbal camera is the biggest departure from its current smartphone-led portfolio. More concrete details will be needed before its prospects can be judged.
