That said, we don’t have to wait till tomorrow to get all the spicy new details. We already have a few notable OnePlus Open leaks, revealing renders, color options, and details about the hinge longevity.

New OnePlus Open hinge and camera leaks

According to the company, OnePlus has taken measures to reduce the visible crease on its first foldable smartphone.

The company has used an improved “Flexion” hinge on the OnePlus Open that uses a water-drop shape to reduce the visibility when open. The hinge has fewer components, which helps reduce the overall weight.

The OnePlus Open should also have the new Sony LYTIA-T808 sensor. This sensor uses Pixel Stacked technology to capture more light through a relatively small sensor. 

Leaker Yogesh Brar has also claimed the standout feature of the OnePlus Open will be the camera system.

The leaker has also posted an image of the Oxygen OS launcher with dock icons.

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.. pic.twitter.com/CaWhk8prlL
