OPPO Find N is now official
It’s the company’s first foldable smartphone
OPPO just made one heck of splash at the OPPO INNO Day 2021 as they officially launch the OPPO Find N – their very first foldable smartphone.
It bears some resemblance to Samsung’s Galaxy Fold and also uses parts from Samsung itself. But there are plenty of notable differences. The most obvious of which is the size. The OPPO Find N seems friendlier to tinier hands as it measures at 5.49″ when folded and 7.1″ when unfolded.
Not sure if this helps you get an idea about its size but official measurements are as follows:
- Height x Weight x Thickness (Unfolded) — 132.6mm×140.2mm×8.0mm (Battery cover side), 132.6mm×140.2mm×7.8mm (Outer display side).
- Height x Weight x Thickness (Folded) — 132.6mm×73mm×15.9mm
- Weight — 275g
It has an inner and outer display. Both are AMOLED with 1000 nits peak brightness. The primary differences are in resolution and refresh rate. The inner display measures 1792×1920 at 120Hz, while the outer display measures 1972×988 at 60Hz.
There are plenty of cameras to go around too. First, the main camera module at the rear. Here are the numbers:
Main Camera:
50MP Sony IMX766 1/1.56″
f/1.8; Equivalent Focal Length 24mm; 6P Lens; OIS
Ultra Wide Camera:
16MP Sony IMX481
f/2.2; Equivalent Focal Length 14mm; 5P Lens
Telephoto Camera:
13MP Samsung S5K3M5
f/2.4; Equivalent Focal Length 52mm; 5P Lens
Naturally, that’s not all since we still have the front cameras for both the inner and outer display. Thankfully, they are the exact same cameras — 32MP Sony IMX615 f/2.4.
Everywhere else, the OPPO Find N is an undeniable flagship on paper. It’s powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chip and comes in two configuration options: 8GB+256GB and 12GB+512GB. It also supports 5G connectivity and has the ColorOS 12 based on Android 11 for its operating system. Also, it has a side-mounted fingerprint scanner for security.
The foldable has a 4,500mAh battery capacity with support for 33W SUPERVOOC charge (fast wired), 15W AIRVOOC (wireless charging compatible with Q), and 10W reverse charging so you can charge other accessories should it ever be necessary.
Price and availability
The OPPO Find N is currently only available in China and starts at CNY 7699.

TikTok finally gets a buyer in the United States
The deal targets a closing date in late January.
The year started with a ban. A day before Donald Trump started his second term, TikTok went dark, in anticipation of an impending ban. The platform quickly went back online, leading to an ultimatum that saw TikTok hunt for an American buyer to full stave off a definitive ban in the United States. Now, as the year ends, a buyer is finally here.
Via CNBC, TikTok has reportedly inked a deal to finalize a deal in the United States, as stated in an internal memo from CEO Shou Zi Chew. The memo, which was sent just this week, details a plan that will see the deal close by January 26, 2026.
Fifty percent of TikTok’s newly restructured U.S. arm will be held by a collection of American investors including Oracle, Silver Lake, and MGX. Meanwhile, already existing investors of TikTok will hold 30.1 percent. Finally, ByteDance will retain 19.9 percent.
Additionally, TikTok’s algorithm in the United States will be retrained with American data. The American arm will also handle the country’s “data protection, algorithm security, content moderation, and software assurance.” Oracle will be the “trusted security partner” in charge of making sure the company keeps within regulations in the country.
With a deal pushing through, the long-running TikTok saga in the United States might finally come to a close.

Silksong is getting its first major expansion next year
The expansion is called Sea of Sorrow.
I still can’t believe that Hollow Knight: Silksong came out this year. After years of just waiting for the mythical title, it’s surreal to have it in my library. Now, barely waiting to catch their breath, Team Cherry is already working hard towards the next content drop, starting with Silksong DLC.
Just like the original Hollow Knight, Silksong is getting free DLCs to expand its story. The upcoming Sea of Sorrow DLC will be the game’s “first big expansion.”
The expansion’s trailer barely shows anything about the new content, besides vague allusions to what’s coming. At the very least, Team Cherry has confirmed, both via the announcement and the accompanying poster, that Sea of Sorrow will be nautical-themed.
It will feature new locations, new tools, and new enemies. By itself, Silksong is already a huge game. Adding more content then is a massive undertaking. Plus, Team Cherry says that this is just the first expansion, hinting at more coming in the future.
Sea of Sorrow will launch in 2026.
Besides the new expansion, the studio is also working on a Nintendo Switch 2 update for the original Hollow Knight. It will add higher framerates, resolutions, and more graphical effects. PC players will also get some upgrades to support larger screens.
The Switch 2 update, which will be free for those who already own the original game, will also launch next year.

Before the new year starts, it’s already fair to assume that Supergirl might be one of the most anticipated movies of 2026. Premiering a year after the globally successful Superman, Supergirl will see the adventures of Clark Kent’s superpowered cousin, Kara Zor-El. Now, the next film in the sage finally has a teaser trailer.
As James Gunn mentioned previously, Supergirl will be based on Tom King’s Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow. Off traveling to other planets to party, Kara finds herself thrust back into the role of being a hero after a young girl named Ruthye Mary Knoll asks her for help.
Though the teaser trailer is mostly a montage of scenes, we already know what we can expect. According to Gunn, Supergirl will be tonally different from Superman, and we see this in the trailer.
However, we can still see influences from Gunn including the usage of “Call Me” by Blondie for the trailer. Also, the film’s space scenes look like they can fit right in with Guardians of the Galaxy.
Still, that’s what we have, and we’re excited. Supergirl will premiere on June 26, 2026.
The film will be directed by Craig Gillespie (Cruella). Milly Alcock plays the titular character. Meanwhile, she will star alongside Eve Ridley as Ruthye Mary Knoll.
