Today, Oppo is launching its flagship phone line, the Oppo Find X5 series. Fans of Oppo will notice that the X4 Series never came to pass – this is because four is an unlucky number in China, the home country of Oppo. Many Chinese phone brands often skip this number in a series.

What will Oppo announce at the Find X5 launch?
The three phones currently rumoured to be announced at the launch are the Oppo Find X5 Pro, the regular Oppo Find X5 and the Oppo Find X5 Lite. The Neo model seen on previous lines is currently expected to be skipped this year, as far as we know.
But it might not just be phones to look out for. Oppo is also rumoured to possibly launch some new earbuds, a smartwatch and possibly even a tablet, according to Times of India.
It’s unlikely that we’ll hear more about the global release of the foldable Find N (currently exclusive to China), but we can dream.
