- The OnePlus Open 2 could arrive imminently
- Rumored tougher, lighter and thinner build
- The Honor Magic V3 is currently the thinnest foldable
The OnePlus Open 2 is shaping up to be a fantastic foldable phone, and new details are leaking about what to expect from the phone: it will apparently be the thinnest foldable yet, while also offering an improved titanium build.
These predictions come from two well-known tipsters, Digital Chat Station and Smart Pikachu (via Android Authority). Both leaks mention the Oppo Find N5, which is expected to be marketed as the OnePlus Open 2 outside of China, just as the Oppo Find N3 was rebranded as the original OnePlus Open.
The foldable is mentioned to be the “thinnest in the world” (according to Google Translate). That would mean the OnePlus Open 2 would have to be less thick than the Honor Magic V3’s 9.2mm when closed.
In fact, this has been rumored since last September, which gives an idea of the anticipation around OnePlus’ second foldable. We didn’t receive any information on how thin the phone could be, but it looks like it will be super thin.
Lighter and more resistant
In these two leaks, the use of titanium in the construction and a “new industrial design, focused on durability” are mentioned (again via Google Translate). That suggests that we are looking at a phone that will be both lighter and stronger.
There is also talk of a triple-lens camera with periscope zoom and Hasselblad engineering, satellite communication capabilities, a Snapdragon 8 Extreme Edition chipset, a battery approaching a capacity of 6000 mAh (as previously rumored) and wireless charging , all of which sounds good. us.
One of these tipsters mentions a half-year gap between the next foldable phone and this one, and with new foldables from Google and Samsung expected in July, the OnePlus Open 2 could be with us before the end of February.
There has been some debate about when the OnePlus Open 2 would see the light of day; Note that the first OnePlus Open phone was launched in October 2023, so we’ve been waiting for its successor for over a year.
