A OnePlus foldable has been long overdue, especially now that every other Android brand has launched one. It seems we’ll be getting the OnePlus folding phone in August. But there haven’t been many leaks related to the device, leaving everything to assumptions, including its actual name. Some say it will be called the OnePlus Fold, while others christen it OnePlus V Fold. Now, a popular tipster suggests that OnePlus is going to throw us a curveball by calling the phone something out of the ordinary.
“OnePlus Open” sounds more like a magic spell
Max Jambor says OnePlus is taking a different approach to the name of its first foldable phone. Instead of calling it the OnePlus Fold, the company is apparently going with the name OnePlus Open. This is an unusual choice, but it could be a way for OnePlus to differentiate its foldable phone from the competition. If you don’t like the name, you’ll be relieved to know that the company also considered other names, such as OnePlus Wing, OnePlus Edge, OnePlus Prime, and OnePlus Peak (you read that right).
Although the moniker may not sound very chic, it’s still better than the conventional “Fold” and “Flip” names. A recent report revealed OnePlus could launch its first foldable sometime before or on August 19.
Rumors suggest the foldable will get an 8-inch QHD+ foldable OLED primary display along with a 6.5-inch FHD+ OLED secondary panel. It wouldn’t be unwise to assume the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC on the device. There are also reports that the foldable could be a rebranded Oppo Find N3, which should remain exclusive to the Chinese market. The OnePlus foldable is also said to support wireless charging.
