The upgraded model of OnePlus Open is now expected to launch sometime in 2025. This news comes as a disappointment to those who were hoping for a release in 2024.
While leaks and rumors regarding the next generation devices from Samsung, Motorola, and other brands continue to surface in the foldable smartphone market, OnePlus fans may find themselves let down. According to recent leaks from tipsters, OnePlus Open 2 will not be arriving this year. Here’s what we know so far about OnePlus Open 2: the upgraded model of OnePlus Open is now expected to launch sometime in 2025. This news comes as a blow to those who were anticipating a 2024 release.
Open 2 is rumored to be equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 processor. Currently, there isn’t much information available about the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4. An official announcement is likely to be made later this year, around October-November 2024, with the first smartphones featuring this processor expected to hit the Chinese market in early December.
There is little clarity on the global launch timeline for most Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 devices. It’s also uncertain whether the OnePlus Open 2 falls into that category. As of now, there’s very little information available about the OnePlus Open 2, and it may take some time before more details are revealed. It’s worth noting that OnePlus rebranded Oppo’s foldable phone for the global market.
In a similar vein, it’s expected that the Open 2 will be a rebrand of the Oppo Find N5, just as the Open included features from the Oppo Find N3 introduced last year. Considering previous rumors that Oppo has delayed the launch of the Find N5 to 2025, it’s plausible that the leaked information about the OnePlus Open 2 is accurate. Therefore, it’s likely that the Open 2 won’t be released until 2025, assuming it follows the pattern of being a rebrand of an Oppo device.
