Oppo has quietly started talking about its upcoming Find N6 foldable, even though official teasers haven’t surfaced yet. Just as that happens, the foldable has now appeared in a Geekbench listing with a top-tier Snapdragon chip.
According to the benchmark entry, the Find N6 runs on the new Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. Interestingly, this is the 7-core version of the chip rather than the typical 8-core setup we’ve seen in the 8 Elite Gen 5. The configuration includes two prime cores clocked at up to 4.61 GHz and five performance cores running at 3.63 GHz. That means, it’s missing one performance core from its usual counterpart.
The Adreno 840 GPU handles graphics duties, and the listing shows an OpenCL score of 24,103. On the CPU side, the Find N6 recorded a single-core score of 3,524 and a multi-core score of 9,090.
The benchmark also confirms that the device is running Android 16 and comes with 16GB of RAM.
Oppo Find N6 spotted with 7-core Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5
What stands out in this benchmark run is the reveal of the 7-core Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. While it’s not entirely surprising, given that the Find N5 also uses a 7-core Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, the key point is that Qualcomm hasn’t officially announced this version yet.
In any case, foldables present unique engineering challenges, such as limited internal space, heat management concerns, and battery constraints. A slightly trimmed core layout could be Qualcomm’s way of optimizing sustained performance without pushing thermals too far.
Of course, benchmark scores only tell part of the story. Real-world performance depends on software optimization, cooling systems, and how aggressively Oppo tunes the chipset. Still, early numbers like these usually indicate that a launch isn’t too far away.
