OnePlus’s Upcoming Foldable Smartphone to Be Named ‘Open,’ Reveals Tipster

For a considerable period of time, it was widely anticipated that OnePlus would release a foldable smartphone under the rather mundane name “OnePlus Fold.” However, it appears that the company has decided to opt for a more captivating moniker, namely “OnePlus Open.” This information was shared by Max Jambor on Twitter, who also mentioned that the name had been officially trademarked earlier this year.

The name OnePlus Open seems like an appealing choice, particularly considering the multitude of foldable devices available in the market, such as the Galaxy Fold, Mix Fold, and X Fold, to name a few. According to @MaxJmb, OnePlus also contemplated alternative names like Prime, Wing, Peak, or Edge.

The anticipated launch date for the new phone is late August, and initial renders depict a device with a circular camera module, flat edges, and an alert slider located on the left side when the device is unfolded. The primary display is expected to feature a 7.8-inch AMOLED panel, while the cover screen is rumored to be a 6.3-inch AMOLED display. The device is likely to be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset, coupled with 16 GB of RAM and 512 GB of storage.
