The OnePlus Open 2, the company’s second foldable smartphone, is anticipated to be on sale the following year. A tipster has recently provided some insight into when we may anticipate the release of the Chinese smartphone manufacturer’s next generation OnePlus Open, which was not released in 2024.
It is anticipated to launch alongside Qualcomm’s flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset as a rebranded Oppo Find N5, which is anticipated to come in early 2025. Sanju Chaudhary, an X (formerly Twitter) user, published information indicating that the OnePlus Open 2 will be released somewhere in the second half of 2025.
Similar to its predecessor, the phone is anticipated to be released in China in early 2025 as a rebranded Oppo Find N5. The OnePlus Open 2 might use the same chipset as its Chinese brother, the Snapdragon 8 Elite, if this claim is true.
The Snapdragon chipset inside the Open 2 would only be a flagship processor for a few months, though, if it is released in H2 2025. Qualcomm typically introduces its latest Snapdragon at its annual summit in October. Since OnePlus has not disclosed whether or when it intends to release the successor to the first generation OnePlus Open, which was released in 2023, it is wise to treat these claims with caution.
Some of the specs of the OnePlus Open 2 were previously revealed by Tipster Digital Chat Station (which is translated from Chinese). This phone may have a bigger screen and is rumoured to be powered by a Snapdragon 8 Elite CPU. Additionally, a 5,700mAh battery (up from 4,800mAh on the first generation model) is anticipated for the Open 2.
According to the source, the business is also reportedly developing a bespoke USB connector for the OnePlus Open 2, which might have Hasselblad-tuned rear cameras. In the months preceding up to its much-anticipated release, we may anticipate learning more about the OnePlus Open 2 and the Oppo Find N5.
