Launched in 2023, the Open quickly garnered a loyal following, leaving fans eager for its successor. Amidst a flurry of rumors surrounding the OnePlus Open 2, we’re bringing you an exclusive first look, in collaboration with industry insiders Yogesh Brar & Chunvn.

Based on a late-stage prototype, these renders offer valuable insights into the upcoming foldable.
