    Does the OnePlus Open change your perspective on Foldables in general?

    This is the first foldable that has actually convinced me that there is a place for foldables beyond the brag factor and a few niche cases. Not sure it will ever be needed in my life, but if I was juggling a tablet and a phone, I’d definitely consider it.

      I think it's worth it I used to use a tablet a lot back than I switched from a iPhone 14 pro max to the Google fold, I originally got the pro max for the bigger screen but the best decision i made was getting the Google fold, love that I have a smaller screen in the front and bigger tablet screen when I open it fits better in my pocket too vs the pro max switching from Apple to Android wasn't that hard for me because I used to use a android tablet and out of all the android systems I like Google's better vs Samsung

    This the first non-samsung foldable to get my proper attention. And while I'm still far off from buying a foldable(like many other people), the fact that oneplus managed to cramp these specs into this phone and make it(albeit slightly) cheaper than the competition is a step in the right direction in making foldables more affordable for the average person.
    Also, I appreciate the new editing style. Probably one of the most pleasant reviews I've watched in a while☺️

    OnePlus sent us one to film a video for our instagram page but couldn’t talk about it publicly until the release due to our contract . I honestly must say this phone is VERY impressive. I was blown away at how beautiful and well made this phone is. The video and audio quality is out of this world and the Hasselblad cameras are everything I expect from their glass. Although they didn’t let me keep the phone I had to ship it back to them. However I would pay the money for this phone out of my own pocket because it’s that good!

    I just bought a new phone this year, but I think my next phone might be a foldable, since I constantly need to translate between languages using Google Translate. It would be much easier to have both apps open at the same time than tabbing back and forth between them. By the looks of the Open, foldables are finally mature enough to be worthwhile. I will seriously consider getting one for my next phone.

    First foldable I've seen with an actualy aesthetically pleasing design. I really like it. Still, I'm most bothered by the plastic folding screens and I think they're just not for me until they're more durable.

    • @PJM257
      @PJM257 Год назад +4

      Fair point, but when it's closed it's basically impossible to scratch the screen, and when it's open it's probably either being held by both of your hands or propped up on a table, so it seems unlikely that you could really cause much damage to it.

      I downgraded my OP 7 Pro as my second phone after i “upgraded” to iPhone 13 Pro for the compact size and good camera quality. Not going to lie, for many aspects 7 Pro it feels like a better phone compared to 13 Pro, in special for video consumption, 7 Pro screen it’s a beast. No notch, less black bars on the side, wide screen, and somehow 90 hz feels faster than 120 hz on my iPhone.

They used to be the budget kings and just lost their way into being a middling smartphone brand. Ended up switching over to Pixels and I've been quite happy. But this is the innovation OnePlus needs. They can do great things if they choose to. It seems like they've been sitting dormant for awhile now and this is a great step in the right direction. Their audience was always the tech savvy and this is a great way to grab back their attention.

    This is the YT review I've been waiting for and it did not disappoint!!!
    My current daily driver is the Fold 4 while I waited for the Oneplus Open and will be interesting how they compare to each other.
    Nice phone, less than groovy name imo - One+ Fold sounds more catchy (unless Samsung has the "fold" trademarked)
    Always loved One+ brand for their original design & the fact they still pack EVERYTHING you actually need ie case & fast/quality lead & charger.
    Pre-order comes with the Pro Buds 2 which is a nice bonus but a trade in value would of been appreciated as its more convenient than selling online etc but we'll see how it goes for a week or two before fully committing, although I can't see a reason atm to switch back.

    I've been looking forward to seeing what One+ would bring with this foldable. It looks stunning, particularly in that green color. I think the only thing that disappoints is the lack of wireless charging. I've kind of gotten used to that with my current phone, so paying $1600 for a phone that doesn't do it seems counterintuitive. I'm certainly not a "power user," but I find the foldable screen tech really compelling, and being to view and interact with things on that larger screen is pretty attractive. I've heard a number of things aren't really optimized for the inside screen's aspect ratio, but that game you kept showing in the demo seemed to fill the screen well enough, even if there was a bug in the render. So, now I'm at that point where I'm asking myself, "If I'm willing to drop $1300 on an S23 Ultra (or maybe the S24 Ultra if I wait a month), why not cough-up the extra $300 and get the One+ Open? It's tempting. Very, very tempting. Keep watching reviews like this in hopes of finding something that'll tip the scales.
