Great phone review! You take the time to open apps and show the nuances of the OnePlus Open, such as the different settings and system apps. You speak and use the phone at the same time, which allows you to show the interface, animations, etc. I've seen a lot of videos for the OnePlus Open because I'm considering buying it, but given the price, I want to be sure. Your video is one of the best I've seen. Most videos just show B-roll footage of the phone sitting on a table doing nothing.

Thanks for the info and the review Nick! I personally like the fact that the OnePlus Open is sort of a nice middle ground between the Samsing Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Google Pixel Fold.

this is a amazing foldable but don't know why you said this phone is arguably better then the competition uh noooo the fold 5 is the best foldable phone of 2023. the one plus open is the second best foldable i have seen all the foldables that are out and if you say point out every foldable and what feature that sets each foldable apart from the rest. the fold 5 is the only foldable that truly has standout features and thats s pen support and samsung dex not to mention the fold 5 has the best software optimization of any foldable

Every new 'Flagship' that comes out, I always want to know what Nick thinks about it. All because his reviews are honest and he covers all the essentials. Great review. Ive never tried a 'Folding phone' thinking of trading in my S23 Ultra for this, because anyways I will go in for the S24 Ultra when that phone is released.

Neat trick: go into the camera mode where you use the cover screen to preview the shot, then swipe up to go to your home screen. Kind of a hack to use the front screen while the phone is unfolded.

Mine is ordered. I am actually excited for this phone.

A really great device 😍😍

14:16 ah yes! Abide is my favorite meditation app! Its amazing:-)

Will it work as a screen mirror in the oneplus pad?

Would you consider selling this? I have never owned a foldable, as a matter of fact never owned an android and would love to try it. Appreciate the content from you my brother

I have never had a foldable before but I ordered the Open last night after a few drinks. If i trade in my OnePlus 11 its basically $850 with the one year replacement service included. Im stoked and as an AV technician at a university I am beyond stoked that it has an IR blaster!

Never slows down is a false claim. Although most of my phones have been Oneplus, they have been caught throttling.

Ok I've noticed this before on another review but the pictures look blurry like there's not much resolution is it just me or am I blind lol

The fold 5 is 253 grams. You were over the top with regards to the weight difference

Replying to a disappeared posting abt lack of wireless charging: Yah thanks for pointing it out. Should have been mentioned for a balance report. For those not aware, wireless charging for other foldable phones is standard at 50W, so just taking minutes longer than the wired charging at 67W. And it is very convenient too, just put the phone onto the cradle, no need to fiddle with the cable and plugging in. Just a much more comfortable way to do charging. And it is also why this phone is lighter than the competitors, sacrificing a useful feature. That is also why Magic V2/V2s and Find N3 can be lighter. So is up to consumers to decide if this is what they want. What you want does not mean other users will prefer it that way.

@baryler

Samsung fold Z fold 5 has 15w wireless charging (133 minutes for a full charge) Pixel fold has a whopping 7,5w wireless charging AND a bigger battery than Samsung so we are probably talking more than 4 hours for a charge... so it can't be these state of the art flagship folding phones you think of, when you say that wireless charging is standard 50 watts on folding phones?

@andrewbui1351

8 ай бұрын

Personally I prefer faster wired charging and lighter and slimmer body. Wireless charging I gotta spend more for the base which is more expensive than cables, it's slower and runs hotter than wired, I can't use it while charging, and I am okay with fiddling for cable; I guess I'm just use to it since I've never used or cared about wireless charging due to aforementioned points. But I assume for many that are already use to wireless charging, use it frequently and already have accessories that use wireless charging, then it is a bummer not to include.

@laszlosohajda7897

7 ай бұрын

The only advantage of wireless charging is that if you are in a Starbucks or any other hospitality outlet where the table you are sitting at has built in wireless charging than you can top your battery up. It useful when you are on holiday somewhere and you use your phone for navigating and taking photos a lot, so the 4-5-6 hours of screen on time does not mean a "full day of battery" for you, but rather a half day. But in everyday use it's generally slower (neither of Apples, Samsungs or Googles) phones support fast wireless charging - they don't even go above 45W wired - and as others called out, besides being slow wireless charging generates more heat, which is bad for your battery health. I would never use wireless charging to give my phone a full charge, the only use-case scenario as mentioned is either in a restaurant or in your car for a top up - but that won!t be fast either as you have to keep it on the plate for 20-30 minutes for about a 20% top up...

​@@andyhookigs4586I'm pretty sure I'm using the right word, because you are doing the same thing when you say 'Because is so easy be critical without think first' by not putting any thought into why they don't like Samsung's narrow outer screen. The only benefit I see for the narrow outer screen is the one-handed use/reachability, but if Samsung were to provide another benefit, such as being the lightest/slimmest bookstyle foldable, due to have the smallest inner/outer screen and battery size out of the bookstyle foldables, I would definitely prefer Samsung's narrow outer/inner screen. I have no idea about cars so I can't give my opinion on that. But I can guess that maybe because when one product has a positive feature that consumers like, other companies will follow and replicate that feature/trend, until all products from various companies become similar to the point where it is hard to distinguish or choose from one from another.
