OPPO Brings the AI Heat to MWC 2025, Doubling Down on Smarter Smartphones

Mobile World Congress is always packed with big announcements, but OPPO just set the bar higher with its AI Tech Summit. The company rolled out its updated artificial intelligence strategy, promising an AI-packed future that isn’t just about fancy buzzwords—it’s about making AI work for you in ways that actually matter. With a bold plan to get generative AI into the hands of 100 million people by the end of 2025 (doubling last year’s target of 50 million), OPPO isn’t just dipping its toes in AI; it’s diving in headfirst.

OPPO Find N5: The Slim, Water-Resistant, Foldable Smartphone That Redefines Everyday Usability

Foldable smartphones are real-world transformers—you get the portability of a regular slab phone for everyday tasks, but when you need more screen real estate, the tablet-sized inner display is right there. In theory, foldables are the best of both worlds. In practice, many struggle with bulk, awkwardly sized front displays, and durability concerns. I have considered the OnePlus Open the best foldable for the US market since 2023. With OnePlus skipping a new foldable release again this year, it only makes sense to turn to its sibling company, OPPO, and its latest foldable, the OPPO Find N5.

OPPO Find X8 Pro Review: The Perfect Fusion of Android Power and iPhone Innovation—If You Live Outside of the U.S.

OPPO, as a Chinese smartphone maker that’s a subsidiary of BBK, has something of a “best of both worlds” philosophy going for it. As a Chinese phone maker, the company tends to lean toward making its phone interface mirror the iPhone as much as possible. As a member of BBK, you’ll see some parallels between its phones and OnePlus phones. The two share a parts bin with each other. Often, the latest OPPO phone is a preview of things to come from its sister company here in the States. That’s what makes the OPPO Find X8 Pro very compelling.

OPPO’s Bold Plan: Making Generative AI-Powered Phones Accessible to 50 Million Users in 2024

AI is everywhere, but it is particularly useful in smartphones because it powers features like virtual assistants, improved photography, battery management, and personalized content. It boosts security with facial recognition, offers real-time translation, improves text prediction, tracks health metrics, and enhances accessibility, making smartphones more intuitive and efficient. But sometimes, budget phones miss out on all of these features. With that in mind, OPPO has announced its plan to make AI-powered smartphones even more accessible by bringing generative AI features to around 50 million users this year.

OPPO Find X7 Ultra Review: A Premium Photography Powerhouse, but You Should Expect a Few Trade-offs, Since It’s a Chinese Market Exclusive

There’s a certain allure to having a different smartphone than anyone else, and there are so many interesting phones with amazing hardware that are only meant for the Chinese or other global markets that far too often do not include the United States. The China-exclusive OPPO Find X7 Ultra is just such a device, but there is still much to admire, even if it isn’t specifically meant for the U.S. market.

Oppo Find N3 Flip Review: Flipping Samsung the Bird

Back in 2019, Motorola ushered the era of the folding flip phone with the nostalgia-infused (but ultimately flawed) Moto Razr. The next year, the company followed suit with the Moto Razr 5G, and Samsung refined the idea with its Galaxy Z Flip and Z Flip 5G. But it wasn’t until Samsung launched the Galaxy Z Flip3 in 2021 that the folding flip design finally gelled.

OPPO Find X3 Pro Review: A Brilliant Android 11 Flagship in Every Way

OPPO has been making phones since 2008, yet the OPPO Find X3 Pro is the first OPPO phone that I’ve ever tried, much less reviewed. Seeing as the Find X series is OPPO’s flagship line, and the Find X3 Pro is their top model, I can’t think of a better phone to introduce me to this company, which as of January this year, has overtaken Huawei as the number one selling smartphone brand in China. I have been using the Find X3 Pro as my primary phone for the past few weeks, and I have found much to like.
