Yeah, I just peeped the article from Verge. They plan to release the Oppo Find N3 as a Chinese exclusive and OnePlus Open international.
Yup.. that’s a copy Lol. I wish they woulda took Pixel Fold route though… I like Google implementation better.
Got a tip for us?

Yep. Lol. We all know Samsung Fold software was king and if you can't beat them, may as well join them.
That's going to be the interesting part.. I really hope they nail it on that part as well...
Well, we can get an idea of the software from the OnePlus Pad… that’s what I did when it came to the Pixel Tablet before the Pixel Fold arrived.
And I really like what OnePlus did with their software on the tablet… but unfortunately I’d rather wait until the Fold 6. I personally like what I get from Samsung in a foldable package. But I’m really rooting for the OnePlus Open.. hoping it pushes both Pixel Fold and Galaxy Fold to improve on their specs.
Here's the dock.

So the OnePlus Open comes with Oxygen OS 13.2 based on Android 13. Needs some fixes but overall it's pretty stable. Has some One UI touches and a functional dock. Should've rebranded Oxygen OS 13.2 as Oxygen OS Fold. Anyways the standout feature on Open will be the cameras..
I like it… reminds me of the Pixel dock, I don’t see OneUI (look) until the user is in an active application.

From later in that posts thread ...
This is 2023 and using THE latest Sony IMX581 - first phone to do so and ONLY 1080p at max 60fps in 2023? And ... OnePlus' motto is 'Never Settle'?
Bruv ... THIS is the epitome of Half-Steppin with crutches on, not even 120/240fps slow mo?!
To me that IS Settling!
Sigh, I guess I'll reserve untkil official announcement in 48hrs roughly, but that is no bueno in 2023. Foldables are THE pinnacle (or should be) of synergy of all mobile phone technologies.
everyone chases the typical specs but misses the KEY bits:
1440mhz PWM - not super high but curious if anyone knows the range of all the current foldables on any market across the globe and how they compare?

Screenshots show standard apps being used with a dock nothing special nor unique to the UI at all.
4805mAh battery is nice along with SuperVooc charging of 67W allowing for 1-100% fully charged in 45mins is sweet!! That'll hurt the Fold 5 sales a bit in North America & the UK.
Still 28/29hrs left so that's when we really get to see the UI. Showing Apps we can download from the Play Store isn't the UI. I thought more experienced Android users could tell. We'll see tomorrow.
Anyone know their warranty support in NAmerica??
I think the UI is what I mention before… its OnePlus Pad in a smaller form factor. However, they made one slight change to it... adding that taskbar.
I know no wireless charging is a deal breaker for some. I'm okay with it not being there since the wired turbo charging is insanely quick. I'm glad to see it come with a case, though. Because as of now, there are none available.
For me the most important feature is that dock on the home screen. It's stylish. Luckily they've kept it from Oppo.
Just remember, THIS IS an Oppo phone rebranded with different UX
Great looking kit BUT that paper test and theie claim of folding completely flat I'd like to see a teardown test: those thick rubber stops around the perimeter hide any potential gap that could, still exist and that bothers me of its design.
Mmm the videos I've seen earlier today of rhr oneplus pad basically scream ios copy cat. Not what I was expecting nor hoping to see. If that really holds true vs weak tubers takes that I've seen, then I'm not I pressed but 18hrs left.
Also first I heard 2600 nits peak brightness now its 2800 nits peak. Who's messing up the leak info going across the web?

Oh yeah I would like to see some teardowns.. I've been seeing plenty of the one sheet paper in between the phone holding it in the air haha
And tbh, I don’t have a problem with OnePlus Pad copying the iPad… its the number one tablet in the market, it’s the smart move.
My only issue with the OnePlus Pad is the lack of multitasking options… that’s a big selling point when it comes to productivity on a tablet and apparently the OnePlus Open is going to address that with the taskbar.
Yeah, I try to avoid getting caught up in the spec sheet.. keyword “try.” But looking forward to the keynote and the initial impressions from YouTubers.
