After several years of market verification, the current mobile phone market has basically formed a pattern in which candy bars and folding screen mobile phones stand side by side. Although folding screens are still far from being able to shake the status of candy bar phones in terms of size, in Samsung, With the successive entry of Huawei, Honor, OPPO and other manufacturers and their continuous investment in research and development, many pain points of folding screens have been solved one by one, from the core hinge technology to the screen crease, from being known as "Fu Ge Toy" to becoming the new favorite of the public. The price has also continued to drop to the ranks of ordinary flagships, and the configuration and experience have reached a new level.
However, for most users who care about folding screens, they are always troubled by the crease problem. Most of them worry that the creases will affect the look and feel of daily use and even the life of the machine after using the folding screen for a long time. In fact, the durability and reliability of the current mainstream folding screens have been guaranteed after using water drop-shaped hinges. As for the results of each company’s hinge technology, we might as well take the three popular folding screen models at the moment. ——Samsung Z Fold 5, Huawei Mate X5, and OPPO Find N3 are taken as examples. Let’s take a look at the crease performance of the three models. It should serve as a reference for consumers who are preparing to buy folding screens.

The fine texture is much better than that of Samsung, and the flatness of the screen is also very good. Then there is OPPO Find N3. The folding can be said to be very shallow, with almost no creases visible at a certain angle, and the flatness of the screen is also very good.

Among them, Samsung Z Fold 5 can still clearly see the existence of creases; Huawei Mate X5 also has a slight crease in the middle of the screen, which does not cause visual interference; OPPO Find N3 has the same folding control as the screen off state. The best in control.

You must know that OPPO has made solving screen creases a major issue since the release of its first folding screen product, Find N. selling point, and then went through another iteration. On the third generation Find N3, OPPO brought a new generation of precision quasi-vertebral hinges, innovatively using the key material - zirconium-based liquid metal, which not only significantly reduced screen creases , and the durability of the hinge has also been brought to an unprecedented level in the industry. Find N3 has become the industry's first folding screen model that can be folded more than one million times!

However, there are still some differences in the issue of creases. Samsung, Huawei and OPPO have done a relatively good job, especially OPPO's handling is better. For patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder who want to buy a folding screen but are particularly concerned about creases, Find N3 may be the best choice right now!
