OnePlus has launched its first foldable smartphone – the OnePlus Open in India flaunting its durable Flexion Hinge. 5.8mm ultra-slim design, foldable screen with invisible crease, and flagship-level specs. Features and highlights of the smartphone include a 7.82-inch 120 Hz LTPO flexi-fluid 3.0 AMOLED screen + 6.31-inch Super Fluid LTPO AMOLED cover screen, Hasselblad triple cameras (48 MP main + 64 MP telephoto + 48 MP ultra-wide/macro), 4nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, 16 GB RAM, 512 GB storage, and dual-cell 4,805 mAh battery with 67W SUPERVOOC fast charging.
The OnePlus Open is the company’s foldable-style flagship smartphone featuring two displays – one is a 7.82-inch invisible crease foldable display while the outer screen is a 6.31-inch cover display. The OnePlus Open sports a 7.82-inch (19.86 cm) Flexi-fluid LTPO 3.0 AMOLED as the main display with 2K+ resolution (2,440 x 2,268 pixels, 426 ppi), 1 – 120 Hz dynamic refresh rate, and an aspect ratio of 1.0758:1. For its secondary display i.e. the outer screen is a 6.31-inch (16.03 cm) Super Fluid LTPO AMOLED with 2K+ resolution (2,484 x 1,116 pixels, 431 ppi), 10 – 120 Hz dynamic refresh rate, and 20:09 aspect ratio.
Other features of the main display are 10-bit color depth (1.07B colors), 2,800 nits peak brightness, 240 Hz touch sampling rate, 89.6% screen-to-body ratio, sRGB, DCI-P3, 97% NTSC, 100% DCI-P3, 1,440 Hz PWM Dimming, and is protected by Ultra Thin Glass. Other features of the cover display are 10-bit color depth (1.07B colors), 2,800 nits peak brightness, 240 Hz touch sampling rate, 91.8% screen-to-body ratio, sRGB, DCI-P3, 97% NTSC, 100% DCI-P3, and is protected by Ceramic Guard. It also has TÜV SÜD 48-month Fluency Rating A certification.
The OnePlus Open uses a cobalt molybdenum alloy and titanium alloy design as thin as 5.8 mm and weighs about 239 grams. This makes the Open lighter and more durable than the 316L surgical-grade stainless steel used in current foldable phones says the company. The hinge’s spine plate is made of zirconium-based amorphous alloy twice as strong as surgical-grade stainless steel and offers good wear and scratch resistance.
The OnePlus Open uses a Flexion hinge with a streamlined water-drop design, resulting in a significant reduction in hinge components, from approximately 100 to just 69. According to OnePlus, this streamlined design reduces both the weight of the hinge and the overall weight of the device. The smartphone comes in two color variants – Emerald Dusk which has a glass back, and Voyager Black which is leather-finished.
The primary camera includes a 48 MP f/1.7 Sony LYT-T808 Pixel Stacked CMOS with 24 mm equivalent (1X), 47 mm equivalent (2X), 1/1.43-inch sensor size, and 1.12 µm pixel size. The OnePlus Open equips Sony’s all-new LYTIA Pixel Stacked 48MP sensor for the first time on a foldable smartphone. OnePlus claims quality on par with the 1-inch Sony IMX989.
The second camera is a 64 MP f/2.6 OmniVision OV64B telephoto with 3X optical zoom, 6X in-sensor zoom, 70 mm equivalent (3X), 145 mm equivalent (6X), 1/2-inch sensor size, 0.7 µm pixel size, and supports up to 120X Ultra Res (digital) zoom. Both main and telephoto cameras support OIS (Optical Image Stabilization) and EIS (Electronic Image Stabilization).
The third camera is a 48 MP f/2.2 14mm Sony IMX581 ultra-wide + macro (3.5 cm) with 114° FOV (Field Of View), 1/2-inch sensor size, 0.8 µm pixel size, and supports EIS (Electronic Image Stabilization). The front has a 20 MP 20 mm f/2.2 main selfie camera and another 32 MP 22mm f/2.4 cover selfie camera.
As for the internals, the OnePlus Open is powered by the flagship 4nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 octa-core SoC paired with Adreno 740 Graphics. It comes in a lone 16 GB LPDDR5x RAM and 512 GB UFS 4.0 storage with no storage expansion via microSD card. It packs a 4,805 mAh dual-cell (3,295 mAh + 1,510 mAh) battery with 67W SUPERVOOC fast charging support.
The foldable smartphone runs on OxygenOS 13.2 based on Android 13 with 4 years of Android OS upgrades and 5 years of Android Security updates.
