It *is* rocket science: Oppo N3 will be made from “aerospace grade metal”

Oppo N3Just when you think manufacturers have run out of ideas of what to make devices from, something always comes up that surprises. The source of this particular surprise is Oppo, who has teased their latest phone, the Oppo N3, with the above teaser and the phrase “Built for what may come”. The teaser image was posted on Oppo’s Weibo page and says that the N3 will be constructed from “aerospace grade metal”.

Presumably this is a step up from the typical “aircraft grade aluminium” we see from time to time and apparently Oppo has seen fit to make its latest phone out of it. Whether this means the N3 will be able to survive re-entry into the Earth’s atmosphere remains to be seen, but we should find out more when Oppo holds its teased announcement in Singapore sometime in October. We’re still not entirely sure what the N3 is going to look like after multiple leaks appear to depict different devices, but we’re expecting the device to re-visit the swivel camera mechanism that was so prominent on its predecessor, the Oppo N1.

What do you think about Oppo making its Oppo N3 out of “aerospace grade metal”? Let us know your thoughts.
