Biggest OnePlus Open 2 Leaks Yet Reveals HUGE Details

[@The_Ray]

I hope OnePlus gives a decent trade in amount for the Open. This will decide if I get the Open 2.

[@ANtA585]

Same for me.

[@josue85]

That's one thing Samsung does get right, I would usually get the upgrade with a phone trade up for about 600 bucks. Would love to be able to upgrade for < 1k

[@cjsomething4995]

Same.

[@alexle1935]

Yep, I would only pay under $1k with trade in for everything

[@alexle1935]

Only if they get the trade in value right for the Open

[@alanfisk9166]

I'm just thankful the OnePlus Open 2 that it's not so crazy different from the OnePlus Open 1 because I just ordered the first phone and I want to love my new phone jan 3rd

[@carstation2672]

This thing is a monster of a device

[@TunedByJ]

That wireless charge speed would be insane if true 😮 sounds like its a good bump from the 1st one which was already pretty good, good point about pricing and how tarrifs can potentially impact that

[@tonywith2e]

thats not insane in the China market, just the standard, so it is very possible

[@maddada]

I have the Magic V3 and use the 50w wireless charging daily. FYI, you can only achieve it when using the official charging brick (Comes in the box) and charging stand (Needs to be bought seperately. Bit pricy)

[@THE.MICHAEL.ANGELO]

Trade in program? Regardless, take my money! I already, wholeheartedly love my OnePlus Open!!! In fact, I'm keeping my OnePlus Open for my second line and getting the OnePlus Open 2 for my main line!!!!

[@carriebeary8]

I want it. I'm impatiently waiting it's release

[@jacksonburger2081]

Honestly, I still think the original beats Samsung and Google in very key areas.

[@donniethesportsguy893]

Hardware…. For sure. User experience and software not to much.

[@jacksonburger2081]

@@donniethesportsguy893 I would completely disagree. I think software is better: more features, better multitasking, etc, etc. It does have some glitches here and there like every phone, but at least it doesn't glitch like iPhone.

[@donniethesportsguy893]

@jacksonburger2081 i use both for about 1 hr a day. Good thing we all entitled to our opinions lol

[@jacksonburger2081]

@@donniethesportsguy893 I do always want to understand the other 'argument' so what makes you use both? (And what is the one you're cheating on the Open with?)

[@marcjcd]

The more that comes out about this device the more I want it. I didn't trade my original Pixel Fold for the P9PF because I love the size of the original one, but the OnePlus2 specs are hard to pass on and the size change wouldn't be a deal breaker then. Great content as always Shane and Happy New Year!!

[@Dwayne3007]

Worth the wait.

[@Alextherock9]

It has been a long wait but we are finally here. I've been waiting since the first rumour of a Oneplus Open Foldable phone.

[@Firerose101]

I'm digging the stache

[@JustinDufrene]

I can't wait for this phone to come out. The OG Open is my all time favorite phone. I just got back from a trip to Utah...and this camera is insanely good

[@412Kamikaze]

Could you create a shareable link of the photos you took? I'd love to see the picture and video quality?

[@412Kamikaze]

[@ApiRos-s9i]

After Fold 2, 3 and 4, Oppo N2 and open, the best foldable i ever had. I ve grown tired of foldables. Oneplus did an outstanding work, but the support from companies is not there. Many apps have small or major issues, esp the Meta apps, browsers and Office apps are killing the experience for me and after so many years of patience, i think that i have had enough.

[@Star_Gazing_Coffee_Lover]

Becoming my favorite channel for tech.

[@shanecraigtech]

Thanks!

[@mwclarke]

It's only twice as fast at wireless charging, compared to wired charging if the zf6, if you get a 50w wireless charger. In the UK at least these are really hard to come by. More likely we shall all be using the wireless chargers we already have in our homes which will be about 25w. Still, it's an improvement on the opo1.

[@deemo182]

I love the idea of a foldable but I think the tech is still about 4 years away from me considering it

[@djgraffiti5627]

When a one with a pen?

[@Kingdomcityzen]

I am waiting for this bad boy

[@Louis1059]

Might be a worthwhile upgrade from the first one. Tempting if true.

[@sayididit2930]

If they give a good trade in deal

[@Louis1059]

@sayididit2930 That too 💯

[@TT0973]

I hope there is a better case selection for the OpO2. UAG, VRS., Otterbox any/all the major North American brands.

[@DJ-tt4eb]

Hey Shane, have you tried the Honor magic v3? These specs look very similar to the Honors

[@Shoeboxcat7]

Your channel and coverage of the Surface Duo 2 is what got me started on foldables. For nearly 3 years I've been using the SD2, and finally the OPO2 rumors have given me the itch to upgrade for many reasons now... Faster charging, wireless charging, water resistence, better cameras, good battery life, much faster chipset, double the RAM, brighter screens, better rumble, better bluetooth and cellular connectivity, easier pocketability, excellent build quality, Face Unlock, security/software support, various multitasking modes...and likely other nice things I've yet to imagine. I'll always hold onto my Duo 2 as a reader, productivity, and emulation machine. I love the wide 4:3 aspect ratio and nearly unmatched side-by-side multitasking. That said, the pros of upgrading now far outweigh the cons for everyday use. My only concern with switching to a flexible foldable is the inner screen durability and dust ingress in the hinge. For that, I'll just buy good insurance and leave my worries behind me. Thanks for all the tech coverage Shane. Staying nerdy!

[@shanecraigtech]

Thanks for being here so long!

[@sayididit2930]

3:40 make the phone the size of the camera bump and give us a 7,000 mah battery

[@412Kamikaze]

Not happening any time soon

[@SilenMonser]

On a foldable? Doesn't look like it's going that way any time soon (if ever). On a slab phone, the RedMagic 10 Pro did that. Too bad it's not really focused on cameras.

[@simpledude5974]

I just pre-ordered the oneplus 13 but may need to hold out for thus beast.

[@SerarEstaifan]

50 Watts wireless charging is not something new from OnePlus. They already have it on OnePlus 12. It only works on their wireless charger.

[@shanecraigtech]

The OnePlus 12 is not under 10 mm thick.

[@AllanPhillips]

50 watt wireless charging is already on the Honor Magic V3, so there's no reason why OnePlus shouldn't be able to do it too.

[@gropatapouf5998]

One of the good reasons would be to get a cheaper phone

[@CoachD77]

And so should Google and Samsung... but we know how that goes.

[@ShahHudlin]

The OPPO exec made a post today about the foldable, and one of the comments by Lin Song_ asked "is the lens arrangement really the same as the online picture?" The oppo exec replied fake. So we won't know so far

[@ShawnNicholson-cr4lr]

This phone sounds amazing. If it has the 6.5 front display that would be great. And all it would need is to give a decent price for the trade in. ✌🏾

[@michaelsinglehurst2724]

Does anyone know when oxygen os 15 releases in the uk for the one plus open? Can't find any information on it and my oneplus open chugs

[@tonyvlip]

I am also hoping for a GREAT trade in price for my One Plus Open 1 as well... if so, I will definitely snag this at launch... cant wait

[@jotaxpo]

Sounds too good to be true but at the same time we have been been conditioned to small improvements from the big companies, I'm really excited. May be the time I say bye to Samsung for a bit after many years

[@Phoneking13]

Shane out of curiosity are you going to be getting/reviewing the OnePlus 13?

[@shanecraigtech]

Doubtful

[@Phoneking13]

@shanecraigtech ok thanks. I was wondering and hoping you would. Wanted to see what you thought about it and how it performs.

[@pattybelletete3524]

The big thing for me is the whole return policy. If it breaks! I can't return a phone and wait 2 months for it! It'd be my only driver of a phone until they change that I can't risk it. I run a business!

[@cameronstarkey3165]

Honor Magic V3 available now is 66watt wired charging & 50 wireless and is currently the slimmest fold on the market.....but rumour has it that one plus 2 will be thinner and have bigger battery capacity & they want to thin down the rear camera bump. Should be a really exciting fold to be fair....im not sure how they are going thinner then the honor magic v3 because its crazy thin aha there is literally just enough space for the charging port at the bottom of the device lol

[@helly1975]

This phone has mazing data. I`m looking forward and can’t hardly wait to buy one.

[@EBossHoss]

Tariffs...should affect all phones. :(

[@carltonsimmonsjr.5607]

If this is true and One Plus can get back into T-Mobile stores, Samsung are going to have a problem

[@tentpitchr]

I am in if I can get the pen

[@donniethesportsguy893]

Yep To KO the Zf6 and Pixel Fold 2 they have to offer up the oppo pen. It’s the game over for all the foldable OEMs not named Oppo/Oneplus (outside China)

[@UKTonyMagill]

Thanks for the update. It's clear that Samsung and Google can't compete with the OnePlus and Honor foldables, but which is better between the Open 2 and Honor Magic 3? They both look great to me. I have a OnePlus Open v1 and love it. Also, any news on having a pen option for the OnePlus Open 2?

[@gropatapouf5998]

That wireless charging is heating and damaging the battery lifespan i guess. I wonder if the battery got the new glacier technology from CATL that was on another recent OnePlus device

[@shanecraigtech]

Chinese oems have been doing this and we're not seeing such reports.

[@jayeshpadake8904]

What about the green line one plus is so famous for atleast in India

[@sayididit2930]

I still can't install OOS15 on my OnePlus Open

[@LiberHedvige]

You're doing a fantastic job! I need some advice: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). What's the best way to send them to Binance?

[@CF542]

Looks almost too good to be true

[@demonfox51321]

Just realized about the price as well hopefully it wont be too much up to Samsung price also dont really care that much about wireless charging etc

[@Optioning]

a little disappointed no one seems to want to match Huawei trifold phone

[@devin4l]

I don't think the market is there for it, yet. Manufacturers regularly sell less foldables than their non folding counterparts and they remain a very niche market because of how expensive they are. A lot of people aren't willing to drop $1300-$1800 on a phone that only folds once, they're definitely not going to be interested in one that's $3,000

[@androidstud]

Let me guess what I heard about a month ago... Oppo Find N5 with wireless charging, a big battery, and a better build this time around. Durable! 💪🔋📱 #Oppo #FindN5 #Phone #Tech #WirelessCharging #Battery #Durable

[@shanecraigtech]

But now we have numbers! lol

[@androidstud]

@shanecraigtech let's go!

[@jameswells68]

I cant wait

[@DaBlackSmokeMonster]

Still makes me laugh when you all get excited about shit the vivo x fold 2 did 2 years ago. 6.5 inch screen, 8 inch inside, 120 watt charging, 50 watt wireless etc when the X Fold 4 releases in a few months it will beat every western phone in every department. It's sucks our choice is so limited in the west so we get excited by outdated stuff because it's 'new' where we live. *sigh* oh and of course don't forget you get all that for 35% LESS money than a western. Blows my mind.

[@shanecraigtech]

It's cool to talk about those devices, but most of us are never going to buy them. It's exciting when it's within reach.

[@DaBlackSmokeMonster]

@@shanecraigtech real tech enthusiasts will buy them. I won't be put off by the lack of warranty or support. The China rom works just fine in my country (UK) and I refuse to conform to the same 4 foldables each year. I like to have a bigger choice. Honestly, if the battery and chip set was better in the z fold SE I'd be buying that right now. Love the form factor and the Squared design. Low key getting tired of curved displays now.

[@MobileJack]

please not another big round camera element! That was one of the reasons why I sold the Oneplus Open.

[@Kemallovic]

Then youl'll be disappointed because the rounded camera module is iconic to oneplus/oppo phones

[@MobileJack]

@@Kemallovic Except e.g. Oppo Reno, Oppo A, Oppo Find N Flip, Find N 1 & 2. But I know the probability is low.

[@crafty24]

I'm very excited to see if this phone is compelling enough to pull me away from Samsung.

[@cesarsalgadosalgado2199]

Samsung needs to fix its wireless charging and cable charging because i keep getting this loud fire alarm sound saying wireless charging and cable charging isn't working

[@tommycasidy3031]

Samsung created the folding phone and in a couple of years are getting destroyed by the competition, I guess giving people what they want is a good business practice.

[@thegixlad27]

Samsung foldables are finished.

[@Steven-e7c]

I'd wait until the Z Fold 7 comes out. Better everything.

[@shanecraigtech]

This will almost certainly not be the case

[@Steven-e7c]

​@@shanecraigtechcause because of the larger battery capacity and faster charging speeds?
