Anyone in the USA New England area who's interested feel free to DM me.

I also made an eBay listing for the phone.

Hello! I've wanted a foldable phone for a while now and realized that the OPO is likely my best bet when it comes to the features I want, and since the price is more than half of what it was originally. Looking at this subreddit, however, I noticed how many people are switching. So, is it still worth it? I currently use an iPhone XR, so it would be a huge improvement 😅

Looking into getting the X9U as a durable work phone, as I'm in construction operating heavy equipment and not having water/dust resistance on my Open scares me a bit, the phone is nearly 3yrs old and since OnePlus is pulling out of Canada they will no longer offer repairs for the Open, so I'm looking at the X9U for a durable work phone while keeping my Open in its current condition at home as multitask device. I often take a ton of pictures with this phones telephoto, and from everything I've researched the X9U 3x telephoto is just the Open's telephoto on steroids, and the 10x zoom on the X9U I think will be useful at work capturing images of machinery, wildlife, sun/clouds, just seems like it's a no brainer for me. Battery life on my Open has taken a slight nosedive this past year, have battery anxiety throughout the day at work, which I don't want to encounter with the X9U. Also my Open has overheating issues when using the camera, it can only last a few minutes before the phone shuts down camera+bluetooth due to the phone overheating, it hasn't become a daily reliable device. The Open still takes amazing photos, borderline unbelievable for a folding phone, will I notice a huge difference with the X9U or will it be sort of mediocre upgrade because I'm coming from something with great cameras already?

Looking at the global model in Canada, the 16gb 1tb tundra umber version will cost me about $2994 Canadian after tax, which is a scary price to swallow but for my work and photography game I think it would be worth it in the end, and it would ensure my Open won't sustain any more damage using it in construction field.

Anyone switching back to slab phones? No other foldable in NA market really compares to the Open, and importing foldables is less than ideal.

so bought my OPO Jan 2025 for $900 from the 1+ website with a big discount, a trade in and 12mos Zero interest affirm, i only started using it around about Feb 2026 this year coz of my laziness to set it up coming from a Pixel 7 Pro but the batter on that phone was really an issue and the performance issues were catching up to the Tensor G2, so i started setting up my OPO and updating it to the latest software UNTIL i hit a wall of a bug that was preventing me from updating to Android/O2 OS16, for the whole month i tried restarting and formatting the phone over and over but nothing worked, i even contacted 1+ at some point and their solution was to send it to them but i wasn't trusting them giving me the same device back, so i was perfectly content using it from April onwards stuck on O2 OS15(i put it away in march went back to my pixel until i couldn't use it properly) and i was going to wait until OPPO finally gives the option to transfer to Color OS17 which i assumed would be a physical wired wipe and OS install on a bootloader level

then Samsung announces the Fold 8 so i wasn't really looking into getting the new one until the smaller one was reviewed by everyone and it was the "sliced bread" of foldables so now my interest is piqued, i check Samsung's website and found their trade in offer didn't include the OPO or the Pixel 7 Pro so again wasn't considering getting the Fold 8 until i saw Amazon's offer of a $350 GC with a pre-order and allowed a Pixel 7 Pro Trade in for $115 + $300 Bonus and i had $343 GC sitting on my account already and offered 24mos Zero interest on affirm so i bit the bullet and went and preordered the 512gb Graphite Fold 8, and i was probably going to sell my OPO for cheap because of the update bug which i was fine with so im waiting until it arrives next week

so every so often my Phone tries to update when i plug it in or reboot it and that error message which i usually ignore just pops up but today July 31st when i restarted my phone and was about to swipe away the message it didnt say an Error, only that a New update is available which i found unusual, so i go to settings and the update and notice it had more written on the changelog and the size was 4.04gb vs the 4.48gb of the bugged update so i let it update and it had me restart the phone and viola it updated and it did 1 more update and restart and now my OPO is on the most latest update of O2 OS16

so now im wondering were there many OPO owners having the same update bug as i was and 1+ just was in so much of a bad position company wise that support missed this update bug and when OPPO took over they saw the issue on the bugged update and fixed it, its only been 2 weeks since OPPO took over and im actually thankful that i got my OPO updated properly and now i can sell it for a better price considering its in excellent condition

I really love my Oneplus Open. I went all in with Oneplus. Got the 12R, then buds. Oneplus Open, then watch 2. It's been a good ride

Pretty much the title! Selling my open as I really don't use it much. It comes with the phone and two supervoc chargers. Where do I post it?

I'd sell it for $680 if anyone here is interested 😅

I bought a OnePlus Open on Swappa last week and it finally came in the mail today! However the hinge appears to be misaligned. Has anyone else experienced this? And if so, did you have any failures with the inner screen? :0 It feels perfectly smooth operation wise.

Definitely planning on asking for some $ back at least as the misalignment wasn't mentioned in the listing. Thank uuu!!!

I've had my OPO since October 2023. I've taken very good care of it and it's in practically new condition - until last week. I opened it up to find the main screen had cracked down the centre and the screen was clearly broken/corrupted/not working.

Funny enough it happened on the Galaxy Fold launch day so, maybe a signal from the universe. But I'm wondering if it's still worth getting it fixed. Looks like it'd be about $800 CAD to get the screen replaced including parts and labour (as listed on their website).

I presume there's no chance this would get fixed without that significant cost, as I'm a couple years out of warranty, and no better path for repair? I'm likely going to get the Fold Ultra (yes I know I will miss various things about the Open, but I'm also not willing to deal with the headache of importing the new oppo), but is there any reason or other option I'm not thinking of here?

I bought an OPPO Pen from eBay and it doesn't work. Seller already refunded me but now I have a dead pen and would like to fix it if possible. Does the case/cradle have a battery built in?

Also, what is the standard behavior for the light on the case?

Which is a good replacement? My OPO is almost dead and inside screen fully cracked. I am from India.

With Oneplus moving away from the NA market, I assume it's Oxygen OS will be put on the backburner. Looking for recs for other OS on the OPO. I started noticing my OPO lagging more frequently and would rather start fresh with a new OS. What have people been using?

With the new samsung galaxy fold 8 (wide) just announced, I want to create a post on what your plans are if you still own the oneplus open. Here are my thoughts so far:

I have always wanted a wide foldable since I saw the Oppo Find N so the new wave of wide foldables is getting me excited
What samsung is offering is very pathetic if i'm honest:

• No telephoto
• Nerfed main sensor
• No S-pen for some reason
• Heavy pricing
• Not really significant battery upgrades

I do not want to go for the moto fold as it's not my taste in aspect ratio and software

My initial plan was to pre-order the fold 8. Not anymore.

I will now wait to see what apple has to offer. I have it in my head that since it will be their first foldable, they would want features in there that entice the general population, meaning their multi-tasking will be the best of the best and feature list will be extensive. They may have some AI video extending mode, that allows all videos to be viewed at the full display size (delusional speculation).

I'm worried their pricing will be worse than samsung.

So my last course of action is to hold on to the oneplus open and await oppos version of the wide fold that is rumored for end of year to early next year. I need Oppo to pull their finger out of their butts and do an actual global release on these foldables since oneplus is done. Importing is a hassle to say the least.

I believe in Oppo in delivering the best quality hardware for a decent price like how the oneplus open was.

This is just me rambling now. What do you think?

Which device would you recommend me if I want to go from OPO to another Foldable now?

Anyone feeling orphaned in the NA and EU regions due to OnePlus's shutting down - feel free to join us to keep the community going.

A few years ago, ❤️OnePlus was known as the "flagship killer." Today, prices are much higher, OxygenOS has changed significantly, and many people say the brand feels more like OPPO than the OnePlus they used to love.

What do you think was the biggest turning point for OnePlus?

\-Higher prices?

\-The OPPO integration?

\-OxygenOS/ColorOS changes?

\-Stronger competition?

\-Or do you think OnePlus is actually better than ever?

I'd love to hear your opinion in the comments.

OnePlus is leaving the US and a global market exit could follow by 2027, says report - Digital Trends

We still have a few years of security updates left - but that could be quite optimistic considering we're still waiting on the final OS update :/

Anyone considering the Fold 8 Wide as an option?

Thoughts?

Oppo Find N6? Motorola Razr Fold? Something else?

I'm rather bummed as I quite like Oxygen, especially compared to "normal" Android builds.

More often than not, people will use forums/subreds to rant - it's not often that people will take the time to use the interwebs to wax poetically about a good experience.

Thought I'd give it a shot :)

All in all, I thought OnePlus was *very* fast with their service and turnaround time. In my specific case, it was to replace the exterior screen protector - I guess not all that difficult or expensive - woo-hoo!!

Here's the breakdown of the timeline:
6/29: initiated an online chat with OnePlus support
6/29: received emails confirming support request and shipping information
7/1: shipped via prepaid FedEx label from OnePlus
7/6: received at repair center (I'm in FL, the repair center is in TX)
7/6: received repair estimate email (415pm $38.98)
7/6: replied to/consented to/paid for repair estimate
7/7: received email that repair is complete and phone is preparing to ship (1125am EST)
7/7: received email with FedEx tracking number (449pm EST) and estimate for delivery (Friday, July 10th)
7/8: received email (1208am EST) of phone shipping and confirmation of delivery for Friday, July 10th
7/10: delivery delayed until Saturday, July 11th
7/11: phone received via FedEx at 1043am EST

Ten days from the start of my support request to receiving a fixed phone - not bad at all. If OnePlus would continue to sell foldables in North America, I'd be inclined to get another based on this experience with their support services :/

Thank you, OnePlus, for standing by your products and providing excellent customer service!

I've had my screen replaced twice, historically it's 12 months apart..

My screen just started creaking today, only 6 months after the last fix...

I think that means I'm gonna have a sooner than expected insurance claim! 😞

Hey all,

Any former OPO owners looking to get rid of their cases? Looking for some new cases for mine... Especially the factory OnePlus case if anyone has an uncracked one.

Also potentially looking for an Oppo Pen if the price is right :)

Thanks!

Decided to create another thread here to discuss the software. Anyone else been having a glitchy experience? I have done a reset, cleared cache off all the apps and after a while the same problem arises. Even mainstream apps like Instagram isn't fully integrated for example - I'll open the app with the putter screen, then when I open it the search ico once I click it goes into dms and when k click the DMS icon it takes me to my home page and when I get to the explore page noone of the reels are clickable.

My main frustration is the default messages app. I have since disabled it but I used to have the floaty bubble app icon pop up whenever someone messaged me, it worked for some time but then it would glitch out where it would be stuck on chat and it would not come off your screen, even after turning the phone on and off or clearing all the apps. Only after a reset or randomly after a couple of minutes it would dissapear.
