Oppo has reached complete framelessness with its phones

Oppo has reached complete framelessness with its phones

Every manufacturer strives for framelessness, but so far somehow things haven’t really come together.

When Samsung unveiled the Edge design, we thought all manufacturers would be heading in that direction, as the curved display looked really lavish and had eliminated the side frame quite well. Some manufacturers also tried this line, but then it all died in the ashes and we didn’t get a sequel. For example, think of Elephone as an emerging one.

The manufacturers tried all sorts of methods, they were particularly successful, think of the Xiaomi Mix and MIX 2 phones, but they weren't curved displays either, and that damn extreme frame remained only there, even in an ever thinner form. By now, we might have thought that no one other than Samsung would force this form. Until now.

Brian Shen, vice president of Oppo at Weibon, ventilated the images of the new Oppo Find X that dropped our chins. Its predecessor already used a curved display, but the novelty ahead was much more compelling. The display has a greater curvature and a 48-degree arc, and the panel extends essentially to the back, meaning there aren’t many frames from the side and it looks straight zero from the front, at least based on the images. The new display has been called Waterfall, meaning we can now make it - at least at Oppo - called Waterfall Screen, if we hear that we already know what to think of a phone without a completely side frame.
