OnePlus Open review: A no-compromise foldable phone
Source: Pocket Lint 
Looking at the entire package here on offer from OnePlus – and assuming the fingerprint sensor is just an unlucky experience with a faulty unit – the OnePlus Open is the foldable phone to beat right now. At least when it comes to the larger book-style models.Sure, Samsung has it beat when it comes to additional software features, S Pen compatibility, wireless charging and waterproofing, but as an experience, the OnePlus Open is an absolute joy to use. The outer display is really useful and doesn’t feel compromised in any way. The internal display is probably the best large folding display on any phone at the time of writing, and the Open Canvas solution to multitasking is a game-changer. Plus, we finally have excellent cameras and great battery life in a foldable that also has (mostly) bloat-free software AND long-term update support. Oh, and it has fast charging. It’s got everything in a slim, premium package. It’s expensive, sure, but if you’re going to go foldable, this should be very near the top of your list.

OnePlus Open Review: What’s Up, Samsung?
Source: Droid Life
Deciding to buy a foldable is probably never going to be easy. These types of devices are expensive and there is always long-term durability to take into account. OnePlus says they’ve put in the work to ensure this device will last you for years to come, plus they are prepared to support it with software updates for a full 5 years, just like Samsung does with its foldables. So if you trust that OnePlus’ Open is built to last, does it standout enough to get you to buy one? In my testing, I feel like the Open has it all for a foldable in this category. The displays are top-tier, the cameras are as well, performance is classic OnePlus awesome, software is off to such a good start, and battery life left me without worry. The hardware feels incredible and premium in hand and might be the best shape and size of this phone-to-tablet foldable design.

90% OnePlus Open review: Reaping the late mover advantage in foldables
Source: The Indian Express
Smartphone companies are clearly feeling the pressure of being left behind in the foldable race. And this is why every brand worth its salt wants to launch its own fold or flip phone before more enter the race. This new form factor also offers companies the opportunity to charge more from their consumers than what their regular phones can do. The latest to enter this bandwagon is OnePlus with the Open.

70% OnePlus Open Review: Sleek Hardware Isn’t Enough to Take on Samsung
Source: CNet
There is certainly plenty to love about OnePlus’ first foldable. Although its cameras leave room for growth, its hardware is stellar with a thin design, vibrant screens and fast wired charging. I love that OnePlus includes a fast charger and a case in the box, too. The software shows promise, even though it needs more refinement to truly take advantage of the larger foldable display. Perhaps some of this will come as Google improves the foldable Android experience as a whole. But you should never buy a product with the hope that a company might fix something later – even if OnePlus is promising four years of major OS upgrades. At the end of the day, the Open’s biggest issue is one that has plagued OnePlus for years: value. It’s hard to justify spending $1,700 for the Open when you consider trade-in offers and carrier deals that knock hundreds off a Galaxy Z Fold 5 or Pixel Fold.

75% OnePlus Open Review: Probably the best foldable phone of 2023
Source: Phone Arena
There you have it, the OnePlus Open is surely a runner-up for the best foldable phone right now. You get bright and large screens, a very customizable and lightweight, but at the same time feature-rich interface that makes the multitasking a very pleasant experience, you get very capable cameras that are great all-around performers, you get very decent performance with great thermal management, and finally, you get more than reliable battery life paired with ultra-fast charging that’s in a class of its own. Are those enough to crown the OnePlus Open as the foldable phone to beat? Yes, it feels as if OnePlus has nailed it from the get-go. What’s more, it’s a phone that excites with its simplicity even though it lacks a wildcard feature, like an S Pen. With a starting price of around $1,500 after trade-in, the OnePlus Open is affordable when compared to its direct competitors, but you can probably find deals on those that will equalize the playing field. Still, the OnePlus Open is probably the best value among all foldable phones available in the US.

80% OnePlus Open review: The best foldable you won’t buy
Source: Android Central
OnePlus isn’t holding back with the Open — the foldable goes up against the best that Samsung has to offer right now, and it manages to come out ahead in several key areas. The Open has a much better design and in-hand feel, a smoother hinge that’s touted to be more durable, a crease that’s as close to invisible as any foldable today, and larger battery with faster charging tech. The biggest win is a cover screen that’s just the right size, and the cameras are the best you’ll find on a foldable. To its credit, OnePlus has a lot of nifty multitasking features, but the software is where the Open falters; it just isn’t refined, you miss out on basic features, and there are enough issues out of the box that I’d suggest waiting a few weeks (or months) to see if these are sufficiently rectified.

OnePlus has always been a company that bucks the status quo in the Android market. Over the past few years, I think they’ve matured to a more steady iteration model of existing phones without pushing that envelope as much. The Open is a return to the company’s DNA of taking items already in the market and challenging to make them better. The much-improved camera array processing paired with the better than average battery life and we have a compelling device. Add in the powerhouse internals you’d expect from OnePlus, and you might have the most complete foldable on the market.

OnePlus Open: Finally, a foldable smartphone to take on Samsung
Source: Irish Mirror
The firm hopes to disrupt Samsung’s dominance of the foldable market with its superior design, slimmer and lighter frame, high-end specs, Hasselblad Camera and immersive spatial entertainment. When OnePlus first arrived into the smartphone market, it shook up the industry by offering flagship specs at more affordable prices. A few days of testing is not long enough for a full review of any smartphone, least of all one so packed full of features as this, but I can give you my first impressions of this exciting new device.

74% OnePlus Open might be the first foldable that’s just alright
Source: Mashable
OnePlus Open is a tricky device to evaluate. It looks like a great value compared to the Z Fold 5 and Pixel Fold (especially with that trade-in discount), but it’s still a really expensive phone. Unless you’re really into the idea of having a foldable, it’s probably better to just go with the $699 OnePlus 11 — which, again, has a higher Geekbench score than the Open does. But despite minor concerns about performance and a lack of wireless charging, OnePlus Open works as advertised. I don’t think it’s as good as the Z Fold 5, and I might even take the Pixel Fold over it because of Google’s excellent photography software. That doesn’t make it a bad phone at all, though. In the end, it’s just alright. But if a flagship foldable from a lesser-known company can come out just alright, then foldables just might be here to stay.

85% OnePlus Open review: What every foldable should be
Source: Android Police
I don’t know if the OnePlus Open is destined to be a success story in North America — in fact, the lack of carrier support and its high price practically guarantees it won’t escape the company’s usual enthusiast fan base. But foldables are practically built for enthusiasts, thanks in no small part to their price tags, and I’d encourage anyone on the fence about buying a folding phone this holiday season to take a good, long look at this one. No, it’s not perfect, and I wouldn’t expect much from OxygenOS moving forward — the company’s forthcoming Android 14 upgrade looks messy, to say the least. But if you can deal with some flawed software and interesting-if-imperfect hardware, you’re getting the best folding hardware money can buy. And considering OnePlus already undercut the competition by $100 — $300, if you can find some garbage to trade in — that’s pretty impressive. I won’t pretend to know what Samsung and Google have in store for 2024, but when it comes to foldables, they have their work cut out for them.

100% OnePlus Open Review: Contender for Smartphone of the Year
Source: Android Headlines
Despite my love for the OnePlus Open, it’s still tough to recommend it. Mainly due to the price. This is a $1,699 phone at the end of the day. And while it does a lot of things right, not everyone can afford to, or wants to spend that much on a phone. And I completely understand. Of course, part of what makes this tough for OnePlus is that it is not going to be available on carriers (it does work on all three US carriers though). So customers won’t be able to take advantage of the crazy trade-in deals that some carriers tend to offer. At the end of the day, the decision is up to you. And if you’ve been thinking about getting a foldable, there’s no better option than the OnePlus Open as your first foldable experience. And that’s because OnePlus was able to sit back and see all the mistakes that other companies did with their early foldable devices, Samsung is on their fifth-generation foldable, and they are pretty far behind the OnePlus Open right now, surprisingly.

79% OnePlus Open Review: Has OnePlus really mastered the foldable formula?
Source: Think Digit
So, the question is – has OnePlus finally perfected the foldable phone formula? The answer? They’ve come extremely close. The OnePlus Open is an exemplary foldable – one that shows off how to do multitasking and cameras right. In my opinion, the foldable interface on the OnePlus Open is the absolute best in the market right now. It capitalises on the large real estate the inner screen offers in a manner that no one has yet. Additionally, the cameras are capable enough to be compared against regular candy-bar flagship phones. Although I really enjoy using this phone, it is not perfect. The refresh rate issues can take a serious toll on battery life, battery life is not the best in the segment, and gaming is not as seamless as on flagships. The foldable landscape in India has seen a massive shift in 2023. This segment was once dominated by only one major player, but now, it is brimming with activity across the globe. In India, we’ve seen a bunch of OEMs establish their presence in the foldable space in 2023.

80% OnePlus Open review: an excellent foldable, with a catch
Source: Digital Trends
For OnePlus’ first attempt at a foldable, the OnePlus Open is a solid device. It’s a great size when folded and unfolded, and it’s definitely one of the most lightweight foldables on the market thanks to the materials used, which include titanium. If you’ve been bothered by the heavy weight of foldables in general, the OnePlus Open may change your mind. The displays on the OnePlus Open are excellent, and both look great in use. The 6.31-inch cover display is similar to a standard smartphone size, making it very usable without any compromises. And with the antireflective layer on the inner display, it’s much more usable than other foldables, such as the Google Pixel Fold with its super-reflective inner display. This antireflective layer also helps reduce the visibility of the crease as well. And the overall design of the OnePlus Open is definitely eye-catching. Emerald Dusk is a beautiful green color that shimmers nicely, and the Hasselblad camera array makes the phone stand out from the crowd.

OnePlus Open review: A thinner and more affordable flagship foldable
Source: Engadget
When I first heard OnePlus was making a foldable phone, I wasn’t sure what their goal was. The company hasn’t been in the business of making flagship killers for a while. But with the Open, OnePlus has crammed some rather impressive hardware into a device with a novel approach to multitasking. The Open’s cameras are as good if not slightly better than what you get on a Z Fold 5, and it has bigger screens too. Honestly, there are a lot of things about the Open’s design that I wish we were getting from Samsung, as opposed to the three years of minor refinements we’ve seen following the release of the Z Fold 3. It’s also important to note that the Open has an alter ego, because depending on where you live, this thing will also be known as the Oppo Find N3. The two phones are essentially the same device just with different branding.

OnePlus Open First Impressions: It’s Finally Here!
Source: NDTV Gadgets
OnePlus is new to the foldables space even though this product has been brought together with help from Oppo. This kind of helps OnePlus start off on the right foot when competing with a brand like Samsung in a very niche but quickly growing market segment. So far, everything sure looks impressive. OnePlus has managed to make its foldable thinner and lighter, and it even packs in an impressive set of cameras on paper, but it has cut a few corners to get there. There’s no wireless charging (for a premium smartphone), no stylus support and it’s powered by, what will shortly be, not be the latest processor in just a few short months. OnePlus has ensured that its foldable is clearly a OnePlus device, but will these missing features impact its performance and rank it lower against the existing competition? There’s also the brand’s positioning to keep in mind. OnePlus, until now, has never sold an ultra-premium device in both India and the global market. Find out about all of this and more in our detailed review, coming soon.

The OnePlus Open is a great addition to the foldable segment, one that has everything to make the Galaxy Z Fold5 sweat. The Open has a classier and supposedly sturdier design; it’s thinner and lighter. And it became evident it has better displays – both are of higher resolution, higher color bitrate, and support Dolby Vision. The cover one also offers a much more convenient aspect ratio. The two dedicated selfie cameras are average at best, the cover selfie cam has some haziness, too. But we don’t see these used for actual selfies, their main purpose should be video calls anyway. Finally, the OxygenOS 13 is incredibly feature-rich and highly customizable, while the foldable-exclusive Open Canvas multi-tasking is super clever once you get the gist of it. OnePlus is promising 4 years of major Android updates and another one of security patches, too.

OnePlus Open Review: This Folding Phone Puts All Others On Notice

The Open clearly marks a new chapter for OnePlus. With this phone, it feels like the merger with Oppo is finally complete, and OnePlus has hit its stride. It also looks like OnePlus is done playing second fiddle to Oppo, and is finally able to compete head-on with heavyweights like Samsung. At $1699 $1499, the Open brings unrivaled value to book-style folding handsets – not to mention superb hardware, excellent cameras, and great software. We also like the beautiful displays, quality speakers, fantastic performance, solid battery life, and wired fast charging. Adding it all up, we firmly believe the OnePlus Open is the best book-style folding phone available in North America today. It’s also among our top five favorite handsets of 2023, and that’s no small feat. So, if you can live without wireless charging and pen support, we highly recommend the OnePlus Open.

The OnePlus Open is not perfect. But it is the best next thing that you can get if you are looking to buy a foldable smartphone, and you should look to get a foldable phone if you think you would be able to use its huge screen in a meaningful way. We have seen foldable phones earlier. But what the OnePlus Open does is that it minimises all the cones that we earlier saw with such devices. Essentially, the OnePlus Open is a flagship smartphone in every aspect, while allowing users to also experience a tablet-like screen in its unfolded state. Believe me, this is a big deal. The OnePlus Open is slim, built with sophistication and care, has screens that are absolutely top class, has a set of cameras that are flagship-grade, and has a weight and shape that makes it easy to carry and use. Its big screen is also almost creaseless, which is a big boon to users. It also offers users top performance, a great battery life, fantastic sound, and a good media experience.

The world of folding phones has quickly become so populated that it takes a fair bit of effort for a new arrival to stand out from the pack. I’m not completely convinced that the OnePlus Open is as revolutionary as the marketing would suggest but there’s definitely enough here to pique some interest. The design is as attractive as you’d expect for a premium device of this type, the displays all show plenty of promise and the durable hinge should serve as a comfort to anyone who is cautious about investing in a folding phone.

The OnePlus Open, the first foldable from the company, enters the market with plenty of competition already established. The Google Pixel Fold and the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 are excellent phones in their own right and offer lots to like. Flip-style foldables are also available: The Motorola Razr+ and the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 (both $999) are excellent folding alternatives if you’d prefer a normal-size handset that folds in half to better fit your pocket (and budget). With that in mind, the OnePlus Open is a strong alternative to all of the above. The hardware is well-designed and built, with a strong hinge and gorgeous displays inside and out. The software represents a new way to interact with foldables and the performance is smooth no matter what you need to do. Battery life and wireless connectivity are on par with the competition, but photo and video quality aren’t quite there yet.

The OnePlus Open is a fantastic foldable in many ways, but it doesn’t quite give the book-style device mainstream appeal yet. The big barrier remains the price, unless you can get a more affordable contract deal once it goes on sale (not guaranteed). Battery life is mediocre and some third-party apps aren’t optimised for the internal display, but there’s still so much to like here if you do want to jump feet first into the world of book-foldables. Performance from the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip is superb even though it will soon be the previous generation, and both the displays are fantastic to use in most scenarios. Then there are the cameras, with the main, ultrawide and telephoto all impressive across a range of scenarios. You also get great speakers and a 67W fast charger in the box. Considering this is a first-gen device, OnePlus has done an excellent job. But it remains a foldable that only tech enthusiasts should seriously consider… for now.

90% OnePlus Open review: An ambitious foldable phone filled with surprises
Source: Tom’s Guide
OnePlus does more right than wrong with its first foldable, which I have to admit is a satisfying package filled with surprises. Considering that this is the company’s first attempt at a foldable phone, OnePlus hit the mark with a premium design that feels and looks more polished than the Pixel Fold and Galaxy Z Fold 5. There’s no denying that OnePlus locked down a premium design, but I think it’s even more important to stress how it perfected the multitasking experience with Open Canvas. Fundamentally it’s very similar to what Google and Samsung implements in its foldables, but the extra step of how the screen dynamically adapts to fit three apps simultaneously is impressive. The OnePlus Open is not without its shortcomings — like the camera’s weak low light performance — but I think the combination of the device’s lower price, long battery life, fast recharge time, and premium design makes up a lot of ground for it.

The OnePlus Open is the no-compromise book-style foldable that the industry has been waiting for. It sports a clean, premium design with a smartphone-first 6.3-inch 20:9 120Hz AMOLED cover display that feels normal to use. However, it’s the inner 7.82-inch 120Hz AMOLED panel that steals the show, with a near-invisible crease that’s only notable when looking at it side-on. Compared to the deep creases from Google and Samsung, it’s a huge step forward. There’s also the camera setup that uses three custom high-res lenses designed for foldables that deliver a notable boost in overall performance compared to options from Samsung, possibly even giving the Google Pixel Fold a run for its money. Granted, it’s not the lightest or thinnest foldable – that goes to the Honor Magic V2, which is yet to get a European launch – and it’s not quite as protected as the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 with IPX4 water resistance, but it does so much so well that it’s truly hard to fault, especially when it’s much cheaper than most of the foldable competition.

The OnePlus Open is an excellent high-end foldable phone with a very thin 11.7 mm design (folded) and a noticeably lightweight (239g-245g, depending on the version). It offers everything you would expect from a foldable experience, especially the large and bright primary display, which is why buyers love this form factor. The camera configuration truly separates this from the competition. OnePlus has heavily invested in camera hardware, and it shows. Nearly all foldables will compare disadvantageously against the best “classic smartphone” cameras.

Overall, I’ve been burned by OnePlus one too many times to recommend this device to anyone other than hardcore phone enthusiasts who are looking to jump to something foldable. Even then, the high price tag makes me want to push you towards other options since the value for money here is so low. At full price, the Open costs $2,300, but the company is running a promotion alongside the launch that will get you $200 off when you trade in any smartphone, regardless of whether it works or not. This means anyone can get one for $2,099, but when the OnePlus 11 is half the price and just as good in a lot of respects, but it doesn’t fold, it’s a hard sell. If you just want to mess about with great folding phone hardware, you’ll enjoy the OnePlus Open. But if you consider yourself an average user who’s looking for a phone to live with over the next four years, I’d recommend looking at a Pixel instead.

90% OnePlus Open Review: Raising the Bar for Foldable Quality
Source: Nextpit EN
When we compare the OnePlus Open to its main competitors in the market, it’s evident that the device surpasses many of them in various aspects. But is it the best foldable device available? The OnePlus Open boasts a different form factor than the Google Pixel Fold, aligning more with the design of the Galaxy Z Fold 5. Like Samsung, it operates on the Android OS but introduces its exclusive skin. In contrast, the Pixel Fold provides a more “pure” Android experience. In the realm of fast charging technologies, OnePlus clearly leads with its quicker solution. The introduction of the new desktop taskbar, along with the ‘Recent fold’ and OnePlus Canvas features, certainly amplifies multitasking capabilities for this foldable device. Most notably, it stands as a genuinely compact 2-in-1 device, ensuring a seamless user experience whether open or closed. In the photography department, OnePlus seems to have the edge with its impressive Hasselblad 48 MP main camera system.

90% OnePlus Open Review: The Highest-End Foldable Yet
Source: Slashgear
Even with non-final software, the OnePlus Open is a strong contender for best phone of 2023, though that’s not to say there aren’t two or three caveats to consider. The first is that the camera is the best set of cameras you can buy on a foldable, which is great, but nighttime videography is not amazing. Then there’s the lack of wireless charging, and while OnePlus’ wired charging may be speedy, a device claiming to be a flagship can’t afford such an obvious omission on its spec sheet. Finally, this is a Gen 1 product and regardless of how impressive, well-built, and thoroughly tested it is, you have to question whether or not this hardware will actually hold up under scrutiny. Foldables are delicate enough by themselves, but coming from a company that has never sold, nor supported a foldable has to give even the most confident buyer some pause. Beyond those caveats, though, there’s little to complain about.

There are now a bunch of really brilliant foldable phones on the market – but they still need lower pricing to really jump into anything near the mainstream. But what OnePlus has produced here is a very fine foldable. Crucially, the form factor hasn’t meant compromises in terms of performance or the specifications of the device. Everything is fully flagship class. Who will buy this phone? It’s a good question when OnePlus is known primarily for well-priced sub-flagships. So can it bring its fans to the foldable market, too?

OnePlus would be quick to tell you that the $1,700 price tag can be offset by trading in any phone — any old phone at all! — for a quick $200 discount. That’s not an introductory deal, either; the company says it will offer this discount throughout the life of the phone. That’s nice and all, but then why not just make the phone’s MSRP $1,500? And it’s not as if OnePlus’ competitors are shy about offering promotional pricing. At the time of this writing, Samsung is offering $300 off a Galaxy Z Fold 5 if you trade in an old phone — even one that’s cracked. I think the best thing the OnePlus Open can do is push Samsung and Google to more aggressive innovation on their phones. We don’t need to imagine what a foldable might look like if it occupied the middle ground between the Galaxy and Pixel foldable designs.
