The Oppo Find N5 is bringing macOS integration with a remote desktop feature

Android phones have pretty good integration with Windows these days with Microsoft actively adding new features. But that’s not enough for some makers – the upcoming Oppo Find N5 will have advanced Mac integration.

This will happen through the Oppo Office Assistant and it takes advantage of N5’s foldable form factor. You will be able to fold the phone at 90° (like a laptop) and it will split in half – the top half will show you a live view of your Mac, the bottom will transform into a Mac keyboard.

The Oppo Find N5 will be able to connect remotely to macOS computers

If you forgot a file on the computer, you can load it on the Find N5 with a single drag and drop. More advanced operations are possible too as this is basically a remote desktop software.

This is done without Apple’s help, of course, Cupertino isn’t going to start poking holes in its walled garden. It’s not clear whether this feature will be made available to other ColorOS 15 devices or not.

Anyway, the Oppo Find N5 is semi-official already (check out our hands-on), but the proper launch is set for February 20 (Thursday). Check out the Oppo Office Assistant in action in the promo video below:
