OnePlus’ first foldable smartphone – the OnePlus Open – is all set to go on sale in India today. The smartphone was launched last week and is currently available for pre-order on the official OnePlus website. Interestingly, ahead of the first sale of the OnePlus Open, the smartphone maker has rolled out a software update to tweak and take care of some of the issues that have plagued the premium hand

OnePlus Open specifications:

The OnePlus Open sports a 7.82-inch Flexi-fluid AMOLED panel with 1-120 Hz dynamic refresh rate. The smartphone also comes with a 6.31-inch Super Fluid AMOLED cover screen with a 10-120 Hz dynamic refresh rate.

The latest foldable from OnePlus is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor paired with Adreno 740 GPU. In terms of storage, OnePlus Open comes with 16GB LPDDR5X RAM along with 512GB UFS 4.0 ROM. The smartphone is run on a 4,805 mAh Dual-cell battery that can be fast charged using 67W SUPERVOOC Charging from OnePlus.

In terms of camera, the OnePlus Open sports a 48 MP main camera with the f/1.7 Sony LYT-T808 lens. The primary sensor comes with support for optical image stabilisation (OIS), HDR and EIS. Moreover, the foldable also offers a 48 MP Ultra-wide sensor and a 64 MP telephoto lens.

OnePlus’ foldable smartphone also comes with four years of Android operating system updates and five years of security patches.

Price and launch offers:

The OnePlus Open is priced at 1,39,999 for the 16 GB RAM and 512 GB storage variant and is available in 2 colour options – Emerald Dusk and Voyager Black. 

The foldable smartphone is currently available for Pre-order while the first sale of the foldable smartphone will commence from today. 

OnePlus Open customers are eligible for an instant discount of 5000 on ICICI Bank and One Card transactions. Moreover, the company is also offering a 8,000 trade-in bonus on exchange of certain smartphones. 

Competition: 

The OnePlus Open gives direct competition to the reigning king of the foldable segment – the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5.
