The Oppo Find X was among the most innovative smartphones at the time of its launch. While smartphone makers were just about adopting the notch, Oppo killed it by opting for a slider design. Now it seems, the company may be working on the Find X’s successor. It is likely to be called Oppo Find Y.
The Chinese company received a trademark for the moniker ‘Find Y’. As the name makes it pretty clear, this is likely to be the successor to the Find X. Twitter user @Stufflistings initially spotted the listing. Oppo showed all its innovative capabilities with the Find X, and it is unlikely to be any different with its successor.
Oppo Find Y might soon be a thing.

The timing is what is particularly interesting. Oppo is gearing up to showcase its breakthrough under-display camera on June 26. The unveiling will take place at MWC 2019 Shanghai. The first device with this feature could very well be called the Oppo Find Y.
In a tweet earlier this month, Oppo teased an upcoming smartphone with an under-display camera. The 15-second video showed only the top half, but there was no selfie camera visible. But as soon as the selfie camera was activated, there was a prominent black bar at the top side housing the module. Just how the camera sees through the display remains unknown, but it did manage to snap a picture of a surface in its view. Almost immediately afterward, Xiaomi too teased its own under-display solution on social media.
Watch: Oppo 10x Lossless Zoom
Oppo is no stranger to firsts in the smartphone world. It was the first to launch a smartphone with a swivel camera mechanism. It was the first to demonstrate 5x zoom using periscope camera on a smartphone. And at MWC 2019, the company became the first to show 10x lossless zoom on a smartphone.
