A lot of modern day foldable smartphones tend to feel quite similar to one another. But when we reviewed the OnePlus Open, we were actually pleasantly surprised at what a great experience it was. We weren’t alone in our sentiment, which is why if you’re excited for the OnePlus Open 2, we might have some bad news for you.
According to a post on X by Kartikey Singh, it seems that the OnePlus Open 2 might not launch this year. The original OnePlus Open launched in the later part of 2023. Most companies refresh their phones on an annual basis. it’s not a stretch to think that the company could launch the OnePlus Open 2 this year.
Scheduled for next year instead, uses 8 Gen 4

However, the post claims that it might skip 2024 and launch in 2025 instead. A follow up reply by Chun Bhai “confirms” the delay. The post adds that the the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 could power the handset. It is a bit disappointing that we won’t see the OnePlus Open 2 this year, but at the same time, we don’t really mind it.
OnePlus certainly took their time before hopping on board the foldable bandwagon. If they have to “delay” the launch of its second model to further improve it or add more features, we’re all for it. It is also quite a risky move. Samsung will be launching their new foldables this year, so OnePlus will have to compete with those devices as well.
