Our verdict

OnePlus's only foldable pairs a genuinely usable 6.31-inch cover screen with a flagship-grade camera, and is now far cheaper used.

Pros

  • Excellent cover display is a normal phone width, unlike narrower rival folds
  • Flagship triple camera including a 64MP 3x periscope telephoto
  • Two bright 120Hz 2K AMOLED panels at up to 2800 nits
  • Lighter than most competing book-style foldables at 239g
  • Still a fast Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 with 16GB RAM and 512GB storage

Cons

  • Only IPX4 splash resistance, with no dust protection rating
  • No wireless charging, and the 4805mAh battery is modest for a foldable
  • Foldables carry inherent crease and hinge durability concerns over time
Best for: Multitaskers who want a tablet-size inner screen on the goBest for: Buyers who disliked the cramped cover screens of older foldsBest for: Bargain hunters wanting a premium foldable secondhandAvoid if: You need strong water and dust resistanceAvoid if: You want wireless charging or the very latest chipset

Frequently asked questions

How usable is the OnePlus Open's cover screen?

Very usable. The 6.31-inch outer display has near-normal phone proportions, so you can use the Open closed like a regular phone and only unfold to the 7.82-inch inner screen when you want more space.

Is the OnePlus Open water resistant?

Only partly. It carries an IPX4 rating, meaning it resists splashes and light rain but has no official dust protection and should not be submerged.

Does the OnePlus Open still get updates?

Yes. It launched with a promise of 4 Android upgrades and 5 years of security patches from October 2023, so security support runs to about October 2028.
