According to Max Jambor, OnePlus Open, the first foldable smartphone from the company, was set to be unveiled on August 29. Tipster now reports that plans have changed and the launch has been pushed back.
We don’t know the new date yet, but it should be revealed soon. The Open was originally intended to use BOE panels, but there was an issue with that, so now OnePlus is using Samsung panels instead.
According to Omdia researchers, the Oppo Find N2 uses two Samsung Display panels. Both the original Find N and new Find N2 Flip feature Samsung displays inside and BOE displays outside. Since some reports place the cover and internal displays at 6.3″ and 7.8″, respectively, the Open probably won’t be based on the Find N2.
