Oppo Find N2 Flip Review: An Increasingly Impressive Foldable Phone – SlashGear

ColorOS is Oppo’s version of Android, which has been co-opted by OnePlus phones. What this means is that essentially, the software you see on the Oppo Find N2 Flip is quite similar to the one on recent OnePlus phones. It runs ColorOS 13, based on Android 13, and it feels like a distinctly different Android experience from the one I’m used to on my Pixel 7 Pro.

ColorOS is heavily skinned, but not nearly as much as something like MIUI. On the Find N2 Flip, it was snappy, but not quite coherent. The UI, on the whole, feels a bit oversized, even when the font size and display size are set to the minimum. The default launcher app doesn’t allow as much customization as I’d like.

However, most of these issues were solved once I swapped up the launcher for one of Android’s best launchers, Lawnchair. The overall UI still had inconsistencies, like, for instance, the label text in the quick settings panel being too large for the icon size, but the phone is snappy enough to run much smoother when you change the launcher app.

The phone has some great foldable-specific features. A nice touch is the camera app adjusting the interface when you fold the phone at 90 degrees, which is especially useful if you’ve propped the phone on a flat surface trying to click photos. You can also have the viewfinder preview on the cover screen when you’re using the main cameras with the phone unfolded, which is another practical foldable-centric camera feature.

There are times when the foldable feature set may feel inadequate. The cover screen is a good example of this. The display itself is gorgeous, but the functionality is a bit limited.
