According to a new report, the very first foldable smartphone from OnePlus will run a special version of OxygenOS. This information comes from SnoopyTech, a tipster, who claims OxygenOS Fold will come pre-installed.

That information was actually corroborated by Max Jambor, a well-known tipster, which only adds more credibility to the table. What’s interesting, however, is that the phone itself will be called the ‘OnePlus Open’.

That information got shared by Max Jambor, actually. It would kind of make more sense for the phone to be called the OnePlus Fold or V Fold, as suggested earlier, to go along nicely with the software name. Not that it’s all that important, but it is something you notice.

OxygenOS Fold will be an adapted version of OxygenOS for a foldable device. Chances are we’ll see plenty of similarities with the build that comes on the OPPO Find N2. OPPO is OnePlus’ sister company after all and ColorOS and OxygenOS are very similar in general.

If the OPPO Find N2 is anything to go by, we’ll get some useful features on board. Entering a split screen mode will be as easy as swiping with two fingers across the screen. Windowing apps will also be a piece of cake, and so on.

The OnePlus Open is coming in Q3 this year, most likely in August. The phone’s design surfaced recently, thanks to CAD-based renders. That design leak managed to create some hype, that’s for sure.

The phone’s specs will also be quite appealing, based on rumors. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 or 8+ Gen 2 will be thrown into the mix, along with two 120Hz displays. LPDDR5X RAM will also be included, as will UFS 4.0. Check out our OnePlus Fold aka OnePlus Open preview, if you’d like to know more.
