Technically it's a 3rd Gen Foldable since Oppo helped develop it and they even released their eastern version of the phone called the oppo find n3. It's the same exact phone.

I love your videos, but c'mon, if you're professional, you can't deny that this device is NOT a first gen. It's third gen. No matter if it was or not sold in US. This is third gen, Oppo N3.

@smartphoneconversations What market its released in is irrelevant. This is basically an Oppo find n3 with a Oneplus badge. They have learned a lot from their first 2 folding phones, that made this phone what it is. I have a fold 5, and I have an Open on the way for many of the reasons that you have stated. I really wanted Samsung to change the dimensions of the fold 5, and do much better with the crease.. unfortunately they did neither, so I'm excited to try the Open. Regardless of what iteration of this phone it is, they seem to have got this right. Just wish it would of had wireless charge..

Professional huh? lol okay
i have two dislikes which can hopefully be fixed in a software update: 1 - when you save a multiscreen set up, you cant save it to the dock, you also cant save it to the homescreen without turning on that annoying feature that adds every new app to your homescreen. 2 - I cant answer calls with my voice. I miss that from my Pixel and S23U (still have the latter)
My problem with this phone is the damn camera hump, it's too big. They should have made it smaller and not sticking out on the back like that.
The reason why there is no 5x5 or 5x6 App stack is , Oneplus is using the same app structure in inside screen as well. So it can't accommodate 5 apps horizontally . Otherwise it would be 10 app icons in one row when you open up the bigger screen. So this is by design. Not a flaw. If they choose to go Samsung way where you can have different front screen and inner screen setup , it would be possible then.
Going to into developer mode. And change the minimum width I believe it's to 600 or so then go to font size and raise it to your liking. Hope that works
First of all, great video. Thanks for answering the question about the home screen layout on the displays. Was really hoping it would since normal oxygen OS has up to 5x6 on displays with the same aspect ratio, hopefully they add it in a patch. If not, hopefully Nova can and supports the Open alright
If you install nova launcher you can have more icons as you want 👍
Should be an update for that like they did on the OnePlus 11
As beautiful as the phone is I don’t like that inner display has to mirror the cover display. I really want the option to have different wallpaper and set up on each display. The phone when it’s released as Oppo Find N3 in Australia in November is going to cost $2700 Aussie dollars. For that kind of money I should be able to have different looking displays.

As of recently The wallpapers can actually be changed for all the screens They've updated that But yes, the icon layout, is still mirrored (which I too, dislike) But separate wallpaper ability has been added, so I'm hopeful that the ability to turn off screen mirroring is coming too 🤞🏼🤞🏼
What network are you using this on? I have T-Mobile and wondering if this will work with their UC? Thanks.
I agree that the volume rocker should switch place with the power button. I rarely use my power button but I change the volume a lot more
Good video. Appreciate your review. I have both the fold 5 and now this oneplus open. I do hope that their software is revised in the best future. It would be really nice to see some more customization options. Maybe a goodlock equivalent!? Thanks 😊

Man the icons drive me nuts too I can't do 5x5 Surprise cuz one plus is pretty customizable
Thank you for the review. Are you familiar with their extended 2-year coverage plan for accidental damage Etc do you know what the deductible is on that I've never dealt with servify. Does not seem to be any info. OP seems to say , not our policies. I'm interested in buying one but I'm reluctant until I get a little more information.
Great video. I ordered mine yesterday. Trade an iPhone 13 Pro Max 1tb, and my trade-in was $860.00.
Ive been daily driving mine since last Thursday and have been enjoying it for the most part. Do have some issues though as no device is perfect: No 5g in canada on rogers and no option for it in settings (found a work around but should hwve come enabled) No wifi calling Cannot turn off screen split mode in settings, email and messages Cannot alter home screen layout rows and columns Have to have the same layout on inner and outer screen Gallery app is useless cant have albums Cant watch you tube on outer screen with it open (tent mode) without opening the selfie camera first Camera bump is really intrusive..way to big No 8k video\wireless charging on a device at this price is weird but certainly not deal breakers
I'm loving my open the only problem I had was with the fingerprint scanner. I would constantly be hitting the thing just holding it or putting it in or taking it out of my pocket, little did I know you can change the settings from a light touch to a firm touch which the firm touch requires the screen to be on that solved my problem big time like I said before I was always hitting it and hearing the haptics go off

Yup. I use the Firm Touch too for the finger print scanner since I use the double-press to quickly get to the camera.
Remind folks if they can, to use their student discount on this device. It'll still get them a few hundred dollars off.
On my OnePlus Nord N10 5G I have 5 icons wide by using the Oxygen icon pack vs Hydrogen icon pack. But maybe the Open doesn't have that option. Peace
J nice review. In UK OnePlus Open is given mad discount just for Black Friday you can pick it up for £1349 and edition discount if your key working then you get the phone for £1215. I have ordered my for £1215 yesterday can't wait.
I got this phone a few days ago and it's amazing 👏
Power and volume could be lower but i hate how the pixel has it set up. Sure it fits their fold but it's annoying in their other pixels when you are used to all the other oems having the volume above the power button.
The volume rocker could be lower. But I didn't even see it as a negative. Why? Because once I set the volume, how often am I changing it? I don't. A few days ago, I was on a call with someone and they were not coming in very loud. So I turned up the volume. Otherwise, I don't mess with it.
i like how when the one plus is closed it doesnt look a folding phone especially next to the pixel and samsung
Just use other launchers... Im using nova launcher and you can customize your home screen and apps screen whatever you want
That camera module reminds me of HAL9000 every time I see it
I had the Last gen G Fold, I have the Google Fold and just traded for a discounted OnePlus Open. The latter is hands down the best folding device I’ve used. I have a couple of issues: 1- the volume rocker is too high up 2- the screen doesn’t consistently wake up when you tap it 3-when you connect a Bluetooth device the volume sometimes sets itself at too high a volume level. Otherwise an excellent device. And yes it’s actually a third gen device since Oppo basically made this. It’s time for these devices to be priced competitively with high end candy bar phones

How did you trade your Pixel Fold for an Open Fold? I tried on the website and they don't accept the Pixel Gold for a trade.
Love everything about the phone except for the video quality and notifications
Hey jwilliams, would you say that this device and the oneplus 11 is quite possibly the two best devices oneplus has ever released? Or would you say there are other oneplus devices that beat them?
@marcochavanne

The OnePlus 7 Pro is the GOAT. At the time it totally disrupted the smartphone world. But the 11 really felt like OnePlus returning to their roots, and the Open was them coming out swinging into the foldable market. Seems OnePlus has finally listened to users and is back on track.
I like the volume rocker just where it’s at.
I genuinely cant believe people are on here saying wireless charging is a deal breaker ????😂😂 do they know it still charges wired?? And especially at 67- 80w ??? Do people not have electrical sockets in their houses ??? I'm mean what is wireless nowadays 15 w maybe ?? Cmon eh ?
Imo, the volume rocker should be under the alert slider.
I think I just might get one of those.. Looks AWESOME,,,,,PERIOD !!!.
I love this phone. also the only other phone i seen that can take a good pic of the moon like Samsung. I don't care if it's ai or not haha. Love your videos!
it has an IR blaster on top to control your t.v, air condition or anything that uses a remote controller. it also can use oppo pen stylus to write on the front and inside screen
1+ killed it i agree 💯 idc if its the 3rd xus of oppo its still BETTER than Z Fold5 or Pixel Fold this coming from a pixel super fan ❤

Love the video, but you gotta stop referring to this as a first gen device because. Because we all know this is the opposite find N3 for America. The n2 was one of the best foldable s in the world without a global rom. The find N barely had a crease as well and that's was a first gen. Correct everywhere else but it's definitely not a first attempt.

@@smartphoneconversations so the correct statement would be the first device released In America. But in the context you used in the video you clearly were praising how great the one plus was compared to the first effort of Google Pixel. Oppo has released a total of I think 4 folding phones before this one. 2 find N and 2 find N flips. OPPO was really one of the first to buck the Samsung form factor and lead to devices like the surface duo. Love the vid But I'm just saying we gotta acknowledge this is American branded oppo phone. They literally are the same phone with rebranded software ie boundless view - open canvas.
Once again it's the not bias for me! Tell the cons and pros! Great video! Thank you for your honesty! It's definitely appreciated! Unfortunately since it's not on any providers, it's too expensive for me! 🤦🏾♂️ 😩🙄😒😡
The volume rocker idea is a very personal one. Some people would rather it not be immmediately accessible where their fingers usually rests. The galaxy s22 for example has a high volume rocker and I've never complained
Love this art piece. ❤❤❤
The only thing I think Sammy beats oneplus on is software. But that's it. Like my open(note)
Had it for a day and sent it back. Couldn't live without wireless charging. It's a nice phone and the Google Fold 2 will look just like it and have wireless charging and be mainstream. Wait for it.

Respect, but that is just a crazy reason to not like a phone. It has faster charging with the cable...wireless charging is much slower. Again, respect though because everyone has things they like about a phone.
Volume buttons are def too high. I got larger 6.7" phone and volume up is about as high on it as volume down on OP OPen. EDIT: OnePlus has grid option in launcher settings but looks like they removed it on foldable for some reason.
What's good
I like the volume rocker
I really do like the device but no wireless charging is a deal breaker for me. I have many pads around me. Was holding off until next year anyhow. Maybe they'll add it by then. Will be between this and the Pixel. Great content as always.

If wireless charging is that important to you then foldables were never for you. Of all the things to care for, despite having 67W charging....... 20 minutes gets you 50%, other 20 min to 100% with the safest charging solution for long term ownership.... It has the lightest weight of foldables, best camera systems, best aspect ratios, and least noticeable crease, and best speaker system. But no, it's the wireless charging that's your deal-breaker. Your opinion sucks.

You do know you can charge in like 45 min right? Not sure why people like wireless charging all it does it make your phone hot and take 45 min just to get to 10%😂. I only use it if I'm going to bed I know I'm not going to be using it a while sometimes or if it's the last resort and I have no choice. Have a car wireless charger I never use, it's pointless.

Great first release from Oneplus, not first gen device though as we all know this is an Oppo Find N3 with a Oneplus badge on it. Who knows, oneplus may have had no input in to the design at all, Oppo may have done 100% of the design and then Oneplus did their own take on software. But ye, Oneplus are lucky they have Oppo as a partner let's put it that way 😂
