When the first foldable phone came out, the original Samsung Galaxy Fold, which didn’t even have a Z in the name yet, a lot of people wrote it off as a massive gimmick that nobody would care for, and the high price certainly didn’t help. Instead, the Galaxy Fold ushered in the era of folding phones, with almost all the big brands trying to get into the game with resounding success since bigger screens mean more functionality and the folding part means they don’t take up as much space. One of the latest brands to release a folding phone is OnePlus, and they’ve done a pretty good job with the OnePlus Open, giving you an excellent option if you don’t necessarily want to go with Samsung and yet still get something with a solid ecosystem. Luckily, there are a lot of excellent deals you can take advantage of if you want to grab one, from direct discounts to trade-in offers, we’ve collected our favorites below.

Do you ever have the desire to swap between a smaller, more manageable phone and something bigger, like a phablet or a slightly smaller device than a tablet? That extra screen real estate is a huge benefit if you’re watching HD movies and shows, trying to multi-task with several apps open, or want to play games on a larger display. That is exactly what a folding phone like the OnePlus Open can offer.

The Flexion hinge in the middle of the phone splits the two screens in half effectively. When it’s open, the hinge is practically seamless, giving you one extra-large 7.82-inch Flexi-fluid AMOLED. When it’s closed, the outer screen is a 6.31-inch portrait-style Super Fluid AMOLED. So, you could technically say you’re getting two devices in one. It’s smaller when the screens are closed but opens up to a larger device. You can start to see how it stacks up in a OnePlus Open vs Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 mashup. It’s a really close call in short.

OnePlus Open supports up to three app windows open at a time, with two in split-screen and a third floating. That allows you to, for example, continue chatting in text or in chat apps with friends while watching videos, playing a game, or browsing the web. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor ensures that you won’t experience slowdown even when multiple apps are open, right alongside the 16GB of RAM.

The cameras are nothing to scoff at, either. The main camera is a 48-megapixel Sony Sony LYTIA-T808 “Pixel Stacked” sensor, the ultrawide is 48 megapixels, and the 64-megapixel telephoto camera is capable of 3x optical, 6x in-sensor zoom, and up to 120x Ultra Res zoom. Basically, you’re going to get some great shots with this phone, even if you’re not a professional photographer.

All in all- there’s a lot to love about it and with the deals you see here, you can pick up the OnePlus Open for a phenomenal price and maybe even with a few extra perks.
