Being locked into an ecosystem sucks! I got my whole family on my Apple One plan. Everybody syncing and backing up their iPhones and MacBooks. Everyone using all the Apple services that are included. I got Apple AirTags on every dam thing, from remote controls, to keys, water bottles, wallets, purses and cars. Got the iPads and AirDropin' all the family photos to each other. Everyone using the Apple Music. Everyone using and loves the FindMy app for all the things. I'm so buried in Apple, that when something cool like this comes out, I can't jump ship. I'm stuck. Even my wife was like "No way! You can't change! We share passwords and locations with each other and all kinds of stuff." - She's right... I'm stuck. - So when you're sitting next to an iPhone user and unfold your awesome OnePlus Open, don't call us "Apple Sheep". We know it's awesome. We're trapped!
I feel you on that. Coming out of high school I was constantly changing my phones because I was a droid user. 2-3 years into college I went ahead and bit the bullet with the Apple ecosystem. Graduated and started making “Adult” money so I had my whole family on my cellphone plan. I ended up buying everyone a new iPhone 13 Pro Max so there weren’t anymore green text bubbles, could share data and pictures without the downgrade in quality, and here I am now bored as hell with my iPhone. I said it sucks to suck, but I’m leaving 🤷🏾♀️. I’ll still have my iMac, MacBook, iPad, etc., but imma gift my phone, AirPods Max (if they can’t sync), and Apple Watch to my niece or nephew 😂. They’ll enjoy it.
Glad OnePlus is back in the business of making interesting devices. Hope the 12 continues this trend so I can actually upgrade this still quite competent 8 pro
That man Floss do the best tech reviews. Bruh is technical with mad charisma. My favorite segment is the RDA test. The amount of comparisons he does between phones, etc. places him above the rest of tech reviewers. Best of all it's a family show. Love it. Keep it poppin Floss.
So happy to see you finally getting respected enough to get review units! Been watching you for so long as you were buying all your tech! You're the ONLY reviewer I trust!
Still rocking that phone but it's starting to show its age. I was gonna wait for under screen selfie camera to take off but the Open is starting to look like the real upgrade.
Man, now I want this. If they add the stylus support I'm picking it up for sure. If only Samsung would widen the cover screen and upgrade the cameras on the Z Fold - it would be just about perfect for me.
I've read that a wider display maybe coming to the z fold 6. I hope that's the case. I'm in the same boat with you. If Samsung widens there display and have current flagship cameras, Samsung would dominate the foldable market IMO.
It took me about 3 months to adjust to the narrow front screen but it's great now for 1 hand operation. I would be down for a wider front screen though so the inner screen is even bigger with less black bars.
Picked one of these up and it's a beast. Oppo and OnePlus over there doing it right. Shout-out to Xi Jinping. This is what happens when you don't update your design in 3 years SAMSUNG.
Had the black version for a few days so far. Maybe I missed it in the video I but didn't see the usual segment on THOT Protection. I stumbled on that in the settings it's called System Cloner. There's a whole suite of scumbag features in this OS I'm only used to seeing in custom ROMs. Also the IR blaster is the most underrated feature in the whole smartphone market. The TVs at work are about to catch hell.
Bro i loooove the fact you compare all the foldables on the spot. Saves me from so much comparison video searching. Still waiting on the magic v2 though lol
Just ordered mine today from the OnePlus site and got $1000 off for trading in my Google Pixel Fold. Thanks Flossy this is about the 10th phone I have bought from watching your videos.
The phone is so cheap now compared to it's original price. I love your videos because you show the phone 100% of the time. It's so annoying to have a tech reviewer review tech and have the camera on them most of the time, because ya know tech reviewers are known for looking like models , like shut up, show the tech! That made me want to start my own channel 😅
This may sound crazy, but I'm tempted to trade in Galactus 2.0 for this phone. I don't know why but I started getting the urge for a foldable or tablet, only for OnePlus to announce this phone. And after they unveiled everything, it seems like they went all out. Aside from no wireless charging. But everything else from the build to the cameras to the displays! Also I got excited when you said it has an IR blaster!
@@MrRaiderg77 This isn't true. It would be $700 plus tax after trade-in. They have a max of $1,000 trade-in. They word it sneakily to make you think you're getting more. You get $200 right away with a trade-in, and then 800 more (at max) if you have the right phone.
@windmacher I keep thinking the same thing! I'm so close to going for the current Oneplus Open BUT you can see how close the foldables are getting to almost perfection and I'm hoping Samsung gets their shit together with the Fold 6. But damn my tech nerd side can't stop rubbing its birdman hands together 😎
I already knew I was getting the phone but I had the reveal playing in the background today while I was working and it was boring AF. They should hire you for the presentations. You are hilarious and you got enthusiasm.
Floss, you are so gifted. You're the only one that can hold my attention and have me enjoying the review the whole time. God blessed you with that gift brother. I'd watch the release events if they hired you to host them. 😊
The hardware is stunning. But what I don't understand with all the brands is that they don't look at what Samsung does with the optimised Fold software. I really hate it when you can not set up the front screen apart from the inner screen and that the inner screen acts as 2 homescreens next to each other instead of one big inner screen. Or not able to resize the split screen. I always do that because I ride with Google Maps and an other app simultaneously. Resizing the split screen is so important. This is such a deal breaker for me. Software is more important to me than hardware. One other thing. What is hanging loose on the left top when you have the phone folded with the case on it? My ocd was kicking in and I screamed at the screen "Flossyyyyyyyy what is hanging loose there?" 😂
For the inner display, you can probably use Nova launcher or Microsoft launcher to change the size, shape, and layout of the icons to better suit your needs.
Floss is the most natural gifted speaking dude when it comes to this RUclips Tech world! Seriously there is no other youtuber who comes even close and unique as Floss!💯 Im sorry but im just saying the dude is gifted and he was born for this🤷🏽
Love these reviews Floss. I respect that you give credit to other Tech Reviewers. This is the kid of review I want before buying a phone, no bull, straight to the point.
Im still rockin the Z Fold4...this OnePlus Open phone looks 🔥🔥🔥 And the presentation much better than all the other companies out there. Great review, Floss!
@@FlossyCarteryeah I know you're not high on the pixel phone but for me it has all the best software communication features as a phone device. Stuff like call screening, hold for me, direct my call, and native voice to text would be things that I would use all the time while using my phone device as a productivity machine. I also like that form factor as well with the wider screen but I can see all of the pros and cons of the different devices for sure.
this was a rather thorough review of the user interface, and all the stuff you get with this device. OnePlus made a good decision to bring this foldable to the US market, and (as IMO Google should have done) went all out to make the price something someone had to think about. My favorite part of Floss videos now is the camera roll. To see Floss's corner of New York is nice.
Floss in the UK oneplus has a deal where you get £250 off the price and a set of oneplus buds or sum worth £179 supposedly and you get the 80w fast charger for free. Pretty great deal makes the phone cost £1350 plus the buds and 80w charger
Yep already preordered. I'm assuming we get the charger in box but because it's EU they send a seperate UK charger and I'm hoping the free extra charger
TK Bay did a video on the stylus option. It is apparently the one that works on the Oppo "OnePlus Open Pen Stylus Revealed Unlocking Every Limitless Potential (OPPO Find N3)"
I finally took the dive and bought this after being a long time, trusted, Samsung user. Absolutely NO REGRETS. This phone is what the fold should have been! The only unknown is any support issues that may crop up and any durability issues since this phone maker does not have boots on the ground in North America. I am very excited about this phone. The battery life is INSANE! It really is a pleasure to use. I wish there were more options for live wallpaper offered by the default software. Yes, I have used the IR blaster :) Thank you for your review!
I've been a Samsung Knight for the last few years and I'm currently using the zfold4, but they lost me with the zfold5. They've deicided to settle. All they had to do is make the front screen wider or maybe put the pen inside. It's time to give oneplus a try. Respect for the early real review flossy
@@SKOLVIKINGZ This is what I'm saying! I don't quite understand the big want for a wider screen on a foldable device. I have the fold 4, and I've really gotten to love how it's thinner when closed. It's just so easy to do the quick things you need to do. Then when you need more real estate you open the phone. With the Google and One Plus phones being wider, it just gives it bigger bars when viewing videos with the screen open, and they're already too big for the galaxy fold phones.
Nice start more foldables to choose from love it. I still loving my Pixel Fold for now wait a few years then might try it out. My 2 years old Z Fold 3 is my backup phone can't go back to a slab great review Flossy keep them coming.
I was trying to be a responsible human and not trade in my OnePlus 10 Pro and snag this. I am using a Fold 5 so I don't need this Open but damn Floss, you are having me pre order this thing right now.
Its a big deal, unboxing tech. I don't understand why Apple and Samsung don't get it? When we lay down nearly 2 large, we want a show. You are speaking our thoughts.
The one plus 7 pro was the definition of innovation i dont know why they decided as you say take their foot off the gas they should made better iterations of the 7 pro and improved on it i love you floss!!!!! Ps: i love white shoes too
It's so funny to refind this channel as I started to look for my next phone. This is the channel I watched when I ended up buying my Samsung Note 10 +. The phone was great, but, unfortunately, it ended with the charge port no longer working. I thankfully had wireless charging, which has been useful in 2 phones, but, hopefully, that doesn't come up again as I make my move to the Oneplus Open.
@@Levi---q7p I've watched just about every video review. There are contradictory assessments on camera, battery life, screen, display output, even specs. If you watched every video that came out today you'd see what I'm talking about
@@ThomasTheTankEngine22 The only thing I've noticed that's a little iffy is the camera, but that's about it. Maybe I haven't seen EVERY video, but I've watched a good number of them. Either way, it's been consistently good across the board, so it was enough for me to bite the bullet and get it.
@@ThomasTheTankEngine22 I'm glad I got first dibs yesterday, because this is gonna be phone of the year for sure. I can't believe they're already out of stock!
I usually don't like on OnePlus, their phones usually are mediocre but this phone right here. This one is a triple major go, especially with 120 times zoom. I'm going to have to cope this one, just on a side note, floss is the only reviewer who shows everything. Which is important because you get know so many things about the phone that nobody else shows you. So I said that to say this, thank you floss for putting up quality content for us. 👍
I love that someone is kicking Samsung's butt. I love my Z Fold 5, but in reality, it's not much better than the Z Fold 3. They need Pixel and OnePlus to Iight a fire under them, or they will never make progress. Awesome review, just love your content!
Floss I gotta ask: how do you think these cameras handle moving targets? I have P6Pro and it never misses a shot of my toddler and that's basically the one thing holding me back from trying out a non Pixel, and there's no way I'm trying out a first gen Pixel Fold (they can't put their flagship cameras on their $1800 device???) I really want a foldable and it seems the OnePlus might have the cameras to make me switch but no reviewers seem to mention if it is a good one for parents
Honestly I wish I waited for this, I think its nearly everything you could want in a fold as always the floss review has all the magic, and the only reviewer I need to see. keep it up floss
At 1:16:42 in the 3 phone comparison, the Pixel Fold would have better screen size if you was running the Android 14 QPR1 Beta Program, which has the option to resize all apps to full screen. Also you can see from that vertical phone position, Pixel's outer dimensions are almost exact to the OnePlus, which means that the OnePlus turned horizontal would be similar width as a pixel fold, with almost half inch more vertical screen size.
@@FlossyCarter phwew, thank god I'm not the only one! 😀 Been watching your reviews for many years... always love the straightforward Tech reviews, and my wife and I are both huge fans of white shoes, so we'll be viewers for as long as you keep making them. Keep up the good work!
I'm the opposite. I can't deal with slow wireless charging, I need ultra fast wired charge. Plug in for 20 mins while I get ready, and the phone is ready for an entire day.
I wireless charge overnight, and wireless charge with wireless android auto in my truck. I rarely ever need to be plug it in to fast charge. Couple of benefits to that...I'm not wearing out the usb-c plug, and I'm not unnecessarily heating up the phone/battery with high watt charging.
A foldable with the same width, height, and screen size as the S23 ultra would be too big. Too big to comfortably use one handed and would be a BEAST in your pocket. My favorite thing about the Z Fold 4 is how easy it is to use one handed and then it's great two handed or for viewing content. I wish the Z Fold outer screen was a touch wider, but then you're giving it an even more square shape on the big internal screen.
Man floss ive been watching you since the m5 days and let me tell you your recipe and sense of humor you bring through my screen is unmatched truly one of a kind a real phone reviews without flashy animations etc God has truly blessed you and the platfom I hope you never stop Muchove brother
I get if wireless charge is all over your house that is one thing, but I hear the battery is very long lasting, like thru a day, and fast charge? Could charge 0-100 during dinner.
@@shanew7361 It has 4K video recording, but no 8K. It is IPX4 which is pretty water-resistant for everyday use. Watch Mr. Mobile's Inside the One Plus Open - and the machines that torture it to get an idea of how much they put it through its paces. While it doesn't have the highest water-resistant rating, it still isn't a slouch when it comes to water protection. Sure you probably shouldn't dunk it into a water glass or take it into the pool, but with some rain, perhaps accidentally getting it wet in the shower it should handle without a problem.
Wireless charging just ruins your battery thansk to the heat build up and it doesn teven have a speed benefit. Even further the wire to the woreless pad is only a few inches/cm from the actual usb c port anyways. Wireless charging is overrated and bad for your device's health long term.
Hey Floss! Gotta quick question… I recently picked up the AirPods Pro 2s, but I’m disappointed with their bass performance. Do you think I’d be happier with something like the Technics AZ80s? A little bit more expensive than APP but perhaps it’s worth it - just wanted to get the GOAT’s opinion on this.
Totally with you on the wireless charging. Such a huge disappointment considering they knocked the rest of it out of the park. Once you go wireless charging in a car going back to plugging and plugging cords every time you get in and out of the car just feels prehistoric.
Naw man this phone charges so fast you don't need to charge it all the time like that. You can run it down and charge it back up so quick. Having to charge it while it's in the car isn't necessary anymore.

Finally watching it on my OnePlus Open. Best foldable I ever had. It was totally worth it. This phone makes so so much fun. OnePlus Open + Watch 2 + Buds 2 Pro ❤️💪🏻
yo flozz i love ya videos cause you don't bullshit it you call it as ya see it if the product is garbage you say its garbage bro but when you love something you really show love for it awesome vid bro
One Plus open is the perfect form factor for me. The Ultra phones are a lil too big for me, but I also need the S-pen. Hope the the Fold 6 is the exact same size as the OnePlus Open.
Pre-ordered this phone yesterday, gonna trade in my OnePlus 11. They have some sick preorder deals going on (getting $1300 for my OP11 🤯)! I used to rock the Z Fold 3 & 4 but got tired of the small outer screen so swapped it for the S23U. Excited about getting this one in my hands!
@@RyanShannon85 love it so far! It's fast, has pretty good cameras and the outer screen is large enough for me to barely open it up to tablet mode. All around I'm very impressed!

this was a rather thorough review of the user interface, and all the stuff you get with this device. OnePlus made a good decision to bring this foldable to the US market, and (as IMO Google should have done) went all out to make the price something someone had to think about.
My favorite part of Floss videos now is the camera roll. To see Floss's corner of New York is nice.
Floss in the UK oneplus has a deal where you get £250 off the price and a set of oneplus buds or sum worth £179 supposedly and you get the 80w fast charger for free. Pretty great deal makes the phone cost £1350 plus the buds and 80w charger
Yep already preordered. I'm assuming we get the charger in box but because it's EU they send a seperate UK charger and I'm hoping the free extra charger
I never considered folding phones before but THIS might change that! This thing is a beast!!!
TK Bay did a video on the stylus option. It is apparently the one that works on the Oppo "OnePlus Open Pen Stylus Revealed Unlocking Every Limitless Potential (OPPO Find N3)"
Props to Floss for mentioning the IR blaster! No other reviews I’ve watched thus far have mentioned it.
Literally!!! I was shocked that seemingly no other reviewer I've seen so far has noted, mentioned, nodded toward it. Wild!!!
Been watching you for years and never miss an upload! Keep up the great content my man
Floss is the realest tech reviewer out there haha. Dude cracks me up with the commentary.
19:48 onwards. What you were trying to remember with the _pop-up camera_ --- it was the *OnePlus 7 Pro.*
Loved that device 😇💙
Remember when OnePlus' whole mission was to be the AFFORDABLE flagship killer? Pepperidge Farms remembers.
that's Nothing's job now lol
@@FlossyCarter LoL they already headed down the wrong path
Family guy
When it comes to foldables in the US market... This is a home run. It looks like a 2 generation leap above the rest.
Im surprised you didn't go more in depth about the new split screen functionality...its super dope and Samsung need to steal it asap
26:36 😆 The 🍌 Banana Head Comment... 🤣 got me dying laughing! 😂
I've watched 148 OnePlus Open videos since this morning 😂. Only 2 I've been waiting for is Floss and MrMobile.
I finally took the dive and bought this after being a long time, trusted, Samsung user. Absolutely NO REGRETS. This phone is what the fold should have been! The only unknown is any support issues that may crop up and any durability issues since this phone maker does not have boots on the ground in North America. I am very excited about this phone. The battery life is INSANE! It really is a pleasure to use. I wish there were more options for live wallpaper offered by the default software. Yes, I have used the IR blaster :) Thank you for your review!
I've been a Samsung Knight for the last few years and I'm currently using the zfold4, but they lost me with the zfold5. They've deicided to settle. All they had to do is make the front screen wider or maybe put the pen inside. It's time to give oneplus a try. Respect for the early real review flossy
Fold five was my first foldable I'm kind of digging the skinny screen I feel like I got some weird in my hand when I go back to a regular phone now
@@SKOLVIKINGZ This is what I'm saying! I don't quite understand the big want for a wider screen on a foldable device. I have the fold 4, and I've really gotten to love how it's thinner when closed. It's just so easy to do the quick things you need to do. Then when you need more real estate you open the phone. With the Google and One Plus phones being wider, it just gives it bigger bars when viewing videos with the screen open, and they're already too big for the galaxy fold phones.
Gotta love how my man Floss shouts out the other RUclipsrs in his vids. Respect.
I respect that too, I know him and MKBHD are friends in real life, I remember that story he told when he reviewed the mkbhd sneakers lol
Nice start more foldables to choose from love it. I still loving my Pixel Fold for now wait a few years then might try it out. My 2 years old Z Fold 3 is my backup phone can't go back to a slab great review Flossy keep them coming.
I was trying to be a responsible human and not trade in my OnePlus 10 Pro and snag this. I am using a Fold 5 so I don't need this Open but damn Floss, you are having me pre order this thing right now.
When Apple 16 comes out, they will introduce their Fold phone for $2200.
Yeah then the 16 "pro max ultimate xl "is going to be like $6,000💀
I was having a massage and the masseurs finished and I was like wait, why is flossy still reviewing the Oneplus open?
Its a big deal, unboxing tech. I don't understand why Apple and Samsung don't get it? When we lay down nearly 2 large, we want a show. You are speaking our thoughts.
The one plus 7 pro was the definition of innovation i dont know why they decided as you say take their foot off the gas they should made better iterations of the 7 pro and improved on it i love you floss!!!!! Ps: i love white shoes too
Facts! My first one's was the 7 pro. Rocked my entire Android world lol
Time to crack open the Henny 😋 I love me a nice long foldable review from the big guy.
It's so funny to refind this channel as I started to look for my next phone. This is the channel I watched when I ended up buying my Samsung Note 10 +. The phone was great, but, unfortunately, it ended with the charge port no longer working. I thankfully had wireless charging, which has been useful in 2 phones, but, hopefully, that doesn't come up again as I make my move to the Oneplus Open.
You’re gonna love this phone, and welcome back!
You had me cracking up throughout this entire video, bro 😅😂
This is the second phone you got me to buy. 1st ultra gangsta 21 Wesley Snipes Black 😂 now this one. Good Lawd this a whole lotta money.
This is a foldable I'll seriously consider. Thr Samsung Galaxy Fold's have always been too damn narrow. Hopefully there will be a Sandstone case
57:07 a missed opportunity to to breakout and sing 🎶 Good, good, good, good vibrations (oom bop bop) 🎶
Finally. I know for a fact floss is going to give us the facts. I've been seeing so many contradictory reviews
What kinda reviews have you been watching? Everyone is saying this phone is great.
@@Levi---q7p I've watched just about every video review. There are contradictory assessments on camera, battery life, screen, display output, even specs. If you watched every video that came out today you'd see what I'm talking about
@@ThomasTheTankEngine22 The only thing I've noticed that's a little iffy is the camera, but that's about it. Maybe I haven't seen EVERY video, but I've watched a good number of them. Either way, it's been consistently good across the board, so it was enough for me to bite the bullet and get it.
@@Levi---q7p Imma get it too. (I got to wait for a restock tho). I just needed floss to certify it
@@ThomasTheTankEngine22 I'm glad I got first dibs yesterday, because this is gonna be phone of the year for sure. I can't believe they're already out of stock!
I usually don't like on OnePlus, their phones usually are mediocre but this phone right here. This one is a triple major go, especially with 120 times zoom. I'm going to have to cope this one, just on a side note, floss is the only reviewer who shows everything. Which is important because you get know so many things about the phone that nobody else shows you. So I said that to say this, thank you floss for putting up quality content for us. 👍
I love that someone is kicking Samsung's butt. I love my Z Fold 5, but in reality, it's not much better than the Z Fold 3. They need Pixel and OnePlus to Iight a fire under them, or they will never make progress. Awesome review, just love your content!
just bought a used z fold 3 today for $480 for that reason. Fold 3 has all i want and it was good price
The pixel sucks it's not beating anything
Yes! Competition is good, and Samsung needs it. They have been lazy lately.
This is the most elaborate review of this device on YT as I'm typing this, mad respect my man. Also, WE ALL are tired of this Jada Pinkett bs lmao 😹😹
It's a shame they didn't offer more colour... Otherwise a great review, as usual!
When can we expect a test of the Magic V2? 😁
Floss I gotta ask: how do you think these cameras handle moving targets? I have P6Pro and it never misses a shot of my toddler and that's basically the one thing holding me back from trying out a non Pixel, and there's no way I'm trying out a first gen Pixel Fold (they can't put their flagship cameras on their $1800 device???)
I really want a foldable and it seems the OnePlus might have the cameras to make me switch but no reviewers seem to mention if it is a good one for parents
Thank u my brother 🙏 enough of the bullshit with other companies not giving us what we pray for.
Yooooo I'm so glad I stayed till the very end. It aint a Flossy Carter video if White Shoes don't make an appearance!
The fold 5 is pretty much perfect. The slim design makes it very convenient to use.
It’s not.
@@kramshironit is though
@@johnwest5008 no…got rid of mine, crease hideous,outer screen to tall and thin, cameras average.
@@johnwest5008matter of opinion. I detest the small screen. Other than that it's great
Honestly I wish I waited for this, I think its nearly everything you could want in a fold as always the floss review has all the magic, and the only reviewer I need to see. keep it up floss
IR blaster Boyz!!! Stand Up!!! 💪🏿
SALUTE! 🫡
Let’s Go!!!!
At 1:16:42 in the 3 phone comparison, the Pixel Fold would have better screen size if you was running the Android 14 QPR1 Beta Program, which has the option to resize all apps to full screen.
Also you can see from that vertical phone position, Pixel's outer dimensions are almost exact to the OnePlus, which means that the OnePlus turned horizontal would be similar width as a pixel fold, with almost half inch more vertical screen size.
Great review!! For me, no wireless charge is a deal breaker. Basically all of the chargers in my home and in my truck are wireless.
Same! I even have one in my bathroom🤣🤣🤣
@@FlossyCarter phwew, thank god I'm not the only one! 😀 Been watching your reviews for many years... always love the straightforward Tech reviews, and my wife and I are both huge fans of white shoes, so we'll be viewers for as long as you keep making them. Keep up the good work!
Why do yall need slow wireless charging when it charges fully in like 44 minutes lol
I'm the opposite. I can't deal with slow wireless charging, I need ultra fast wired charge. Plug in for 20 mins while I get ready, and the phone is ready for an entire day.
I wireless charge overnight, and wireless charge with wireless android auto in my truck. I rarely ever need to be plug it in to fast charge. Couple of benefits to that...I'm not wearing out the usb-c plug, and I'm not unnecessarily heating up the phone/battery with high watt charging.
A foldable with the same width, height, and screen size as the S23 ultra would be too big. Too big to comfortably use one handed and would be a BEAST in your pocket. My favorite thing about the Z Fold 4 is how easy it is to use one handed and then it's great two handed or for viewing content. I wish the Z Fold outer screen was a touch wider, but then you're giving it an even more square shape on the big internal screen.
Please Do not pay any atention to the haters in coments,they do not matter ! You know you are a great person and amasing tech tuber
Man floss ive been watching you since the m5 days and let me tell you your recipe and sense of humor you bring through my screen is unmatched truly one of a kind a real phone reviews without flashy animations etc God has truly blessed you and the platfom I hope you never stop Muchove brother
Mine comes in tomorrow. I hate my fold 4 narrow ass display.
I get if wireless charge is all over your house that is one thing, but I hear the battery is very long lasting, like thru a day, and fast charge? Could charge 0-100 during dinner.
It’s just really weird how it doesn’t have wireless charging, yet they still charge that outstanding price.
Yep, deal breaker, gtfo, and no 4k or 8k plus not waterproof.
This would have been a great deal if it was priced around 1000$ or 1200$
Like a normal flagship price
@@shanew7361 It has 4K video recording, but no 8K. It is IPX4 which is pretty water-resistant for everyday use. Watch Mr. Mobile's Inside the One Plus Open - and the machines that torture it to get an idea of how much they put it through its paces. While it doesn't have the highest water-resistant rating, it still isn't a slouch when it comes to water protection.
Sure you probably shouldn't dunk it into a water glass or take it into the pool, but with some rain, perhaps accidentally getting it wet in the shower it should handle without a problem.
Wireless charging just ruins your battery thansk to the heat build up and it doesn teven have a speed benefit. Even further the wire to the woreless pad is only a few inches/cm from the actual usb c port anyways. Wireless charging is overrated and bad for your device's health long term.
@FlossyCarter What cellular network are you using this on
Hey Floss! Gotta quick question… I recently picked up the AirPods Pro 2s, but I’m disappointed with their bass performance. Do you think I’d be happier with something like the Technics AZ80s? A little bit more expensive than APP but perhaps it’s worth it - just wanted to get the GOAT’s opinion on this.
most definitely! All of the top brands are better than Apple for music lol
@@FlossyCarter that’s fair lmao. Thanks bro!!
@@FlossyCarter just ordered the technics!!
Dude, you really should be a commentator on sports. I would be paying good money to see/hear that. I love your humor
Thanks bro 🫡
Totally with you on the wireless charging. Such a huge disappointment considering they knocked the rest of it out of the park. Once you go wireless charging in a car going back to plugging and plugging cords every time you get in and out of the car just feels prehistoric.
The vehicle has to come with a wireless charger? Sorry if thats a dumb question because I drive a 2017 Ram 😂 (with no wireless charger obviously)
Naw man this phone charges so fast you don't need to charge it all the time like that. You can run it down and charge it back up so quick. Having to charge it while it's in the car isn't necessary anymore.

Finally watching it on my OnePlus Open.
Best foldable I ever had. It was totally worth it.
This phone makes so so much fun.
OnePlus Open + Watch 2 + Buds 2 Pro ❤️💪🏻
yo flozz i love ya videos cause you don't bullshit it you call it as ya see it if the product is garbage you say its garbage bro but when you love something you really show love for it awesome vid bro
Thanks Brother!
@@FlossyCarter well all right! My bro
I just picked it up for $300 on trade in and discount thanks floss been watching yo videos since I was a teenager now I’m rocking the open to work!
Nice work!
I can't wait for apple to release their foldable in 2030 for $2000 with a 1080p screen.
It'll be okay because its their first foldable.
And the industry leading 60hz refresh rate 😂😂😂
Lmao honestly though haha
with micro USB for charging....
But still no charger in the box 😂
@@FlossyCarter It's apple Floss, you have to find a new random-fancy name for that screen.
One Plus open is the perfect form factor for me. The Ultra phones are a lil too big for me, but I also need the S-pen. Hope the the Fold 6 is the exact same size as the OnePlus Open.
1:16:04 Most replayed lol
The red watch band matching the phone kit was a nice touch for this video. 🙂👍
Hahahaha I’m glad you noticed
Pre-ordered this phone yesterday, gonna trade in my OnePlus 11. They have some sick preorder deals going on (getting $1300 for my OP11 🤯)! I used to rock the Z Fold 3 & 4 but got tired of the small outer screen so swapped it for the S23U. Excited about getting this one in my hands!
How you liking the Open so far?
@@RyanShannon85 love it so far! It's fast, has pretty good cameras and the outer screen is large enough for me to barely open it up to tablet mode. All around I'm very impressed!
