Slimness like the fish, performance like the bear’s paw—can a phone have both? The answer from OPPO Find N5 and AAC is: Absolutely!
On February 20, OPPO unveiled its slimmest foldable flagship yet—the OPPO Find N5—ushering in a new era of foldable phones at just 8mm thick!
In terms of sensory experience, the Find N5 is equipped with AAC’s ultra-thin sensory experience solutions—the AAC FeatherLight Speaker and AAC AeroEngine designed specifically for foldable phones—providing a perfect balance between a lightweight and slim design and an outstanding experience, effectively solving the dilemma of having both “slimness and performance.”
Making Its Debut with Industry’s Thinnest Speaker ——AAC FeatherLight Speaker
The first AAC FeatherLight Speaker this time not only sets a new standard for ultimate ultra-thinness design but also challenges the conventional belief that “ultra-thin devices must compromise on sound quality”—it’s thin, but the sound remains exceptional! Next, let’s explore this industry’s thinnest speaker through three key Q&As.
Q: Just how thin is the FeatherLight Speaker?
A: 1.4mm (unit) / 2.1mm (box) — thinner than you could ever imagine!
As the thinnest speaker in the industry, the FeatherLight Speaker has achieved an extremely ultra-thin unit thickness of 1.4mm, with the final Box shape of just 2.1mm, which is equivalent to the thickness of two standard credit cards. This makes it 25% thinner than ultra-thin speakers of conventional foldable phones and 42% thinner compared to master-level SLS speakers used in bar phones.
Additionally, the FeatherLight Speaker weighs just 2 grams, which is 23% lighter than the ultra-thin speakers of conventional foldable phones. The FeatherLight Speaker fully meets the OPPO Find N5’s extreme internal stacking requirements, enabling OPPO Find N5 to achieve the world’s thinnest foldable flagship design.
Q: With such a thin profile, does thinness compromise sound?
A: Thinness does not equal weakness, and exceptional sound is guaranteed!
In an extremely compact physical space, the FeatherLight Speaker has also achieved performance upgrades. Compared to the ultra-thin speakers of conventional foldable phones, it offers a 20% improvement in low-frequency performance, truly achieving the “thin yet powerful” requirement.
As a result, the vertically symmetrical design of the two FeatherLight Speakers empowers the OPPO Find N5 to deliver a clear, rich, powerful stereo experience. At the same time, with AAC’s original NLC low-frequency algorithm, low-frequency clarity can be enhanced by 100%, which effectively reduces external distortion and faithfully reproduces sound to a great extent.
Q: How does it achieve both thinness and powerful performance?
A: We achieve it through three major innovative breakthroughs!
The FeatherLight Speaker’s ability to deliver enhanced sound quality in the ultra-thin frame results from joint innovation between OPPO and AAC’s acoustic team. Through three major upgrades: the pioneering split vibration stroke architecture, the innovative magnetic circuit system, and new materials, they have successfully tackled the challenges of millimeter-level thinning of speakers and performance improvement.
Pioneering Split Vibration Stroke Architecture
This architecture features a staggered design for the vibration and magnetic circuit system, which reduces the overall thickness of the FeatherLight Speaker compared to the traditional vertically integrated design. Additionally, under the same size, it increases the effective amplitude space of the diaphragm by 30%, achieving a “small chamber with large sound pressure” effect. Its low-frequency performance can be doubled compared to traditionally designed speakers of the same thickness.
Innovative Magnetic Circuit System
The FeatherLight Speaker’s innovative magnetic circuit system employs opposing technology for both internal and external magnets. This design effectively utilizes the internal space to create a stronger magnetic field. This boosts magnetic energy density by 25% compared to the conventional magnetic circuit system design, resulting in more powerful low-frequency performance.
Innovative Superconducting Magnetic Materials
These materials not only make the FeatherLight Speaker thinner and lighter but also significantly enhance structural strength. In addition, these materials have stronger magnetic conductivity, providing 30% greater magnetic driving force, further improving the sound quality of the FeatherLight Speaker.
With the exceptional stereo sound quality of the dual FeatherLight Speakers and the deep synergy of the NLC low-frequency algorithm, the OPPO Find N5 can deliver a rich audio experience across various scenarios. Whether in multi-person video conferences or video learning scenarios, the FeatherLight Speakers ensure Find N5’s clear sound so users can hear every speaker without missing important information. In system application scenarios such as email summarization, important information broadcasting, and AI voice interactions, the FeatherLight Speakers empower the “Breeno Voice Assistant” to be an articulate digital secretary with clear and pleasant words.
Featuring the Industry’s Lightest X-Axis Motor——AAC AeroEngine Designed Specifically for Foldable Phones
In terms of haptics, the OPPO Find N5 is equipped with the industry’s lightest high-performance X-axis motor—the AAC’s ultralight X-axis motor AeroEngine, specifically designed for foldable phones. Compared to the motors used in previous models, the AeroEngine weighs approximately 50% less while maintaining the same size. With a thickness of 2.4mm and an extremely lightweight design of only 1g, AeroEngine helps Find N5 achieve an imaginary thin design and bring it excellent vibration performance.
In addition, the support of RichTap® haptics solution has opened up a broad and rich haptics ecosystem for OPPO Find N5, helping it to present amazing vibration performance in work and entertainment scenarios such as input method typing, ringtones vibration, and information notifications, allowing users to obtain a delicate and immersive haptics experience in multiple scenarios.
The OPPO Find N5 will go on sale on February 26. Stay tuned if you are interested.
