OnePlus fans have something exciting to look forward to as the OnePlus Open 2, the brand’s second-generation foldable, is on the horizon. Recently leaked renders of the device provide a first look at its design, revealing notable refinements and upgrades over its predecessor, the OnePlus Open, which debuted in October 2023. Let’s delve into the details of what’s new and improved in this highly anticipated foldable smartphone.
OnePlus Open 2 appears to be thinner
The newly leaked renders, shared by Smartprix in collaboration with Yogesh Brar and Chunvn, showcase a prototype design of the OnePlus Open 2.
Compared to the original OnePlus Open, the Open 2 is said to be larger yet thinner, with a slim profile of just 10mm—making it potentially the slimmest foldable phone in its category. For reference, the first-generation OnePlus Open measured 11.7mm thick. This sleek design refinement could position the Open 2 as a leading contender in the foldable segment.
Another notable design upgrade is the expected IPX8 water resistance, a step up from the IPX4 rating of its predecessor, which will enhance durability and appeal to users seeking a more rugged foldable device.
What else should you expect?
The phone could feature an 8-inch 2K LTPO AMOLED inner screen with a 120Hz refresh rate, complemented by a 6.4-inch AMOLED outer display for seamless usage. The Open 2 might ship with up to 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage, ensuring ample space and multitasking capabilities.
It’s expected to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite (vs Snapdragon 8 Gen 3) SoC, marking a significant performance upgrade over the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 in the OnePlus Open. OnePlus offered some impressive multitasking features with the first-generation phone to offer the best possible user experience. The Open 2 will run OxygenOS 15 based on Android 15, likely featuring even more refined multitasking and AI-powered functionalities.
The rear camera setup is expected to house three 50MP sensors (main, ultrawide, and telephoto with 3x optical zoom), while the front cameras could include 32MP and 20MP sensors.
A larger 5,900mAh battery with 80W wired and 50W wireless charging will ensure improved battery life and faster charging.
The OnePlus Open 2 is rumored to debut in China in early 2025, with a global release expected within Q1 2025. Given the OnePlus Open’s availability in India, the Open 2 is also likely to launch there.
