According to a report by 91Mobiles in Hindi, Oppo has filed a new patent application for a rollable smartphone. The patent design images suggest that the phone's main body will feature a bar-shaped design with visible rear cameras and LED flash modules on the back panel. However, there are no visible front camera sensors, which means it will feature an under-display camera.

The images cited in the patent depict squared edges with a flat front display panel, volume and power buttons on the right side of the device, and a USB Type-C port and speaker grille on the bottom edge. The report suggests that the phone may be able to roll out from the right side or expand on both sides with a specific touchpoint or task allowing for the phone to roll.
