The wireless charging complaint is so ridiculous on a OnePlus device when they give you ACTUAL fast charging AND the CHARGER IN THE BOX. Wireless charging is far less efficient and more damaging to long term battery health. UA-cam reviewers make the same complaints all the time about OnePlus but don’t complain that Apple, Samsung and Google took chargers out of the box and didn’t complain when Apple took away the headphone jack. Wha about those folks who bought nice wired headphones or earbuds? Please keep the same energy for these other OEMs that everyone always seems to have for OnePlus. Other than that, good review. But the wireless charging thing is so irrelevant given everything else that OnePlus has on offer here
Plenty of UA-cam reviews complained at the removal of the charging plug but it's pointless to keep complaining about it, it's been removed. Wireless charging isn't being removed as a feature. I still agree Fast Wired charging is more useful.
I like OP because of how Oxygen OS works. I don’t know what OOS was like prior to the 10t and 10Pro. But OnePlus is my replacement to iPhone after Apple took the sim tray away from US customers.
OOS has always been a very good bridge between stock android, a sprinkle of IOS and some cool unique features. I've had OP since the 6T, 8, 10 pro and just ordered the Open. A very underrated OS
I've had OnePlus over the years - Oneplus One, Plus 3T, Oneplus 5, Oneplus 10. Their UI has been mostly stock android with a light UI skin on top (similar to how Sony does their phones). It's pretty good. Not cartoon'ish like Xiaomi's UI
GREAT review! Always a fan of your work and reviews. Have the Open, now, and I am LOVING it! And, you're spot-on about its cameras - they're fantastic!
I personally dont get how anyone uses wireless charging. I think OnePlus is just sticking their foot down and saying its pointless which it is. Wireless charge it for 1 hour to get the amount you can get in 5 min plugged.
You obviously don't use wireless charging as it's intended to be used. Put a wireless charger on your desk and you just set your phone down on it after you use it each time. Your phone will have a full charge all the time without having to plug it in.
@@phandroid Yeah charging like that isn't good for the battery health, plus wireless charging is slower than wired charging, it's really not hard to plug a phone in.
My story. I had the 15 pro max. Loved it. I had the fold 5. It was cool. Just used my iPhone for many more things. as far as emulators I used Samsung. Then I bought the one plus open. Sold my fold 5. Went to att store to try a fold 6. I liked the sharp edges but one plus is so much better. Wireless charging. I don’t care about. I always use a cable
I had the z fold 4 and I liked using it for watching videos , playing Roblox with my kids lol. I just didn’t like the skinny screen of the front display. It was too narrow for me. So I traded it for an s23 ultra. But now thinking of trading that for a one plus open. Initially wanted that one over the z fold but it was obviously more expensive. I like the wider front display and I always wanted a phone with IR blaster. Only thing I’m hesitant about is the software. I’ve always only used iOS and Samsung phones. So it would be different trying this OS
@@Dodoking-Techno With Realme 240W charger and Xiaomi 300W charging breakthrough, going from 0 to 100% juice in 8 minutes or less should be praised loudly in the industry. With wireless charging you're still tethered to a docking station for a couple of hours or more. Like who needs wireless charging when your phone is ready to go in 8 minutes. I think if we prioritize fast charging then in 10 years we will see our phone fully charge in less then a minute. Wireless charging wouldn't matter.
Been a One Plus user from the original One Plus phone but left them when they lost track of providing timely OS updates, security updates etc. I do think the one Plus open is a good phone but I have been bit too many times by them now. Also, I personally prefer a smaller form factor phone in Galaxy fold.
I've never used wireless charging for phones. It's so much slower than a charger. I do charge my earbuds via a wireless tho. Not even an issue. Crazy how this device is better than models that just came out.
I have one wireless charger (50watts) that i bought with ny oneplus 10 pro but i always took the cable out of the wireless charger and put it directly into my phone and just used it as a stand, because then it would charge at 80watts. I don't get why people are so horny for wireless charging. With my open i dont even need the stand anymore 😂
@@phandroid which is fair enough...it's not a bad problem to have as a business but a heads up would've been awesome lol. All good...I don't have to trade in my device, they're keeping the price that same as if I did and they're adding an extra case. Fine by me lol.
Great review there! I've recently changed to a OnePlus Open from a Pixel Fold (which I was pleased with) but this is on another planet. It resllys like a mini tablet when open, thanks to the lack of crease. Like yiu said, camera is very impressive. I tried the zoom module at 6x, then was just as impressed at 10x. Then I took a photo of a Robin at nearly 400mm full frame equivalent, it was still sharp with good detail. Certainly one of the best phones I've ever owned. Also, I must be one of the few without any wireless chargers. I do like the fast charging though.
OnePlus Open is the best foldable in my opinion. Had it only for a day but had to return it due to getting a faulty device from the flashlight broken but while I had it I loved it. Getting a replacement in a couple days. Can't wait.
I played around with my mother's zfold 4 and realized how cool fold phones are after not wanting one for so long. I wasn't compelled to buy a fold phone until I saw the OnePlus Open is a thing now. I then decided to sell my ROG phone 7 to have money toward this phone and I'm glad. I also realized that I don't game on my phones as much as I thought I would so having a gaming centric phone is a bit pointless. I do have some smartphone specific gaming controllers so this new setup with the OnePlus open will be much better.
i really like mine except 2 big things , no wireless charging and the auto screen dim feature doesnt work.. im allways manually adjusting the brightness..
I noticed that the vibration notifications are as strong as the samsung phone ones. I miss calls / texts because i dont feel the phone. Did you experience that? Way to fix it?
@@salmo18diaz For a photography novice I find it good but there are a bunch of pro settings you can tinker with that UA-camrs have done and got some amazing results so if you can figure that out then it seems from what others have captured to be really good. I would say the zoom is only good to about 20x though anything more and it's Digital and bad like forget the 120x zoom capturing anything decent
I went from a Pixel 7 Pro to the OnePlus Open and while I absolutely LOVE the Open, I am enormously disappointed in the camera. Compared to the Pixel, all of my pics are way blurrier in every lighting condition, especially if there is any motion to speak of. I really thought that giant camera bump would help give us a flagship camera in a foldable.
Ok im sick of some reviews talking about that you barely get more screen watching a video...that is not true it's a very good amount bigger on the z fold and it doesn't cut people's heads off like a normal phone does and you can full screen the z fold and have no black bars at all im sure one plus does to
You are just proving my point. I said that this specific design with the short and stubby layout doesn't give you more screen real estate video video. The Galaxy Z Fold DOES.
I really trust on your reviews, I think better next year I may switch to one plus open 2 , This year I have already invested money on S23 ultra and S23, so keeping those device another year make justice to my pocket. Any way keep up your good work 👍👍
I've went from the Oneplus 7 to Samsung S22 Ultra and it was miserable experience and on most days I just want to throw the phone to the wall but kept telling myself I need to resell the phone later on. Anyhow I downgrade back to my old OnePlus 7 after a year with Samsung. I skip Oneplus 11 because it didn't have 512gb or 1tb option which is a high priority on my list of features. Been waiting for the Oneplus 12 but looking at this review I might just get the Open instead.
@@NexxoExxon S22 ultra really was a pathetic device. Power hungry, overheat and less battery life. The 8 gen 1 made by Samsung foundry and again they are trying to put crap Exynos in S 24 and S24 plus. Really pathetic. I am thinking to exchange my secondary device S23 to op12 , not much budget.
I wouldnt go there yet I wouldn't say it's the best for £1600 it's missing a few features no wireless charge no water resistance cameras is not near as flagship cameras but overall I think one plus did a good job for their first foldable phone
Love your video! The unbias analysis made me a fan! What urks my soul about some bloggers and media about this phone compared to the oneplus open...umm...WE DO REMEMBER THAT THE PURPOSE OF THE OUTSIDE SCREEN ISN'T TO GIVE YOU A BIG SCREEN. IT DOES WHAT IT'S SUPPOSE TOAND WHEN YOU REALLY NEED TO MULTI-TASK AND ALL THAT JAZZ, YOU OPEN TO THE BIGGER SCREEN 🤦🤦♀️Who will buy a folding phone that they don't need to open? 🤔🤔🤔
I don't see what the resistance is at this point about foldable phones....their durable....have premium builds and offer you waaaay more productivity compared to regular slab type phones .. ...people really need to do themselves a favor and at least give foldables a try.
@@phandroid I'm not asking for my comparison perspective.If both phones came out at the same time and you had to decide on the 12 or the open what would be your possible choice?
@@GC3-22 again, you can't compare them. You need to first choose if you want a foldable phone or a regular slap phone. My personal preference is for regular slab phones. It's a personal design preference. Yours may be different.
The huge issue with Samsung is their customer service and complaints team when you need to contact them for anything including repairs. They are so bad I will now never purchase a Samsung product again. Their warranty is a total con and the threat of court action has forced them to comply but they are actively delaying a repair to my fold 4 and its now been over 4 weeks without my phone! Seriously considering Oneplus now
They are 100x more durable than people think. It's a early problem that has been fixed since. I dropped my fold 3 at 80mph on my bike and the screen is still perfect. Well the inner screen.
I've had foldables since the z flip and z fold 2 and now one plus open. I work construction and I have not had any problems with them. I do try to take care of my devices but yes they are more durable than you might think
@@JGonz92 thank you. I've got a toddler who loves my phones so that was a concern of mine. Haha. Work on law enforcement also so was worried about riding it around also.
I have money but I can't buy this due to lack of trust on foldable device.after paying so hefty amount I want to use it atleast for 3 to 4yrs but after 6 months fold phone causing display issue.
I disagree with saying everybody looking to buy the phone has a wireless charger. I bought it and have many phones with wireless chargers. I dont own one single wireless charger😂. I will take super vocc charging over wireless charging any day.
Yeah, they are still pretty pricey. Give it a year or two and the prices should come down significantly. More and more OEMs are now making them, so we should see some lower-tier devices pop up pretty soon.
I'm willing to bet 9 out of 10 people DO NOT have wireless chargers around because they're complete ass. I drive a moto with a 68 watt charger and it charges in like 10 minutes from halfway to full. Take a shower and it's charged. Why would I ever want a 15W wireless that would take an eternity. Only phone reviewers say wireless charging is important. Or if your phone charges so slow that 15w is "fast" for you.
I never said that 9 out of 10 people had wireless chargers. I said 9 out of 10 people who will buy THIS phone. There is a huge distinction between the two. Anyone willing to spend this much money on a phone is a tech enthusiast AND early adopter who is willing to spend money on new tech. That includes wireless chargers, which have been around for a decade. Just because you don't have one or use one doesn't mean others don't.
@@phandroid I didnt mean you said that. Just saying I bet in general 9 out of 10 people don't have the wireless tech. Just thinking of my group of friends/coworkers/etc. because think about it too, if all your wireless setup is only 15w charging you'd never use that anyway for this phone, you'd have to wait until new faster wireless chargers came into play...but then the phone tech only has the 15w charging. So it would be better just to plug in for 10 minutes anyway. Like the phone tech is outweighing the wireless tech at this point so it just doesn't make sense to wireless charge any phone really
Waiting on mine... was expected yesterday... now 12/15🤯 Only thing I disagree with here is your comments on wireless charging. 1. Wireless charging hasn't changed much since its inception, the only real change is that Apple jumped on board and brought magsafe to the table. 2. Speeds are tragically slow 3. The device is basically unusable while charging, as soon as you pick it up you break the cycle. Years ago I thought it was great but as time went on my wireless chargers went in a drawer due to the convenience of wired charging. One Plus takes that convenience factor to a completely different level. I think we need to start letting go of the wireless narrative until the tech starts to catch-up; a 3+ hour charge just aint it!!
downside is warranty repair dealing with oneplus is a nightmare also if you compare software and Multi window Samsung does it much better also oneplus has no wireless charging also.... nice phone though
Wireless charging(for phones) is complete garbage. For my buds and watch its fine but i dont got 2-3 hrs to be waiting for my battery to fry evenly on both sides lol
I could care less about IP or Wireless Charging. Mine's coming in the next day or two so it would be time for me to ditch my Xiaomi Mix Fold 2. Anyone wanna buy it?
amazing foldable yes but the best no fold 5 is still the best but i will say the one plus open is the second best foldable the best 3 things the fold 5 offers is best software, samsung dex , and best s pen support, and features. what the one plus open offers faster charging, better front screen, 2800 nits but for some reason the fold 5 looks brighter
Whats funny and hilarious is that Google and Samsung claimed their hinge on the Google pixel fold on the z fold 4 and 5 have the best and strongest hinge but many customers have reported that their foldable phones have broken due to the hinge problems. I thought both Google and Samsung said their hinges were strong enough, but both companies have completely failed
One plus sucks there warranty support rma reputation listen i get most peope want the bigger screen so they are in a honeymoon phase but man wait until oxygen os bugs horrible support and hardware issues then you will see what you reallu bought and maybe that Narrow screen on the samsung was not so bad me and one plus go back to the only good phone they ever made which was the og one plus one dont buy the hype you will be sorry
These out of touch reviewers need to realize not a single real, human being gives a damn about wireless charging. Never have, never will - especially on Android. Magsafe wireless charging was the biggest push wireless charging has ever had and even that is diminutive.

Can you tell One Plus to make the next foldable bigger with an 8 inch inner display screen
It has a 7.8 inch inner display already. Why do you need an extra 0.2 inches?
OnePlus screen is bigger by a lot. It's slightly shorter yes but very hard to tell. 8 had them both side by side they're almost the exact same height.
So when watching a video on landscape on the cover is the same size when watching when opened?
It's slightly larger.

So it would be better just to plug in for 10 minutes anyway. Like the phone tech is outweighing the wireless tech at this point so it just doesn't make sense to wireless charge any phone really
Wrong on the device design, it's been confirmed that One Plus actually came up with the design before Oppo.
In my opinion, way better than Samsung in many ways.
Waiting on mine... was expected yesterday... now 12/15🤯
Only thing I disagree with here is your comments on wireless charging.
1. Wireless charging hasn't changed much since its inception, the only real change is that Apple jumped on board and brought magsafe to the table.
2. Speeds are tragically slow
3. The device is basically unusable while charging, as soon as you pick it up you break the cycle.
Years ago I thought it was great but as time went on my wireless chargers went in a drawer due to the convenience of wired charging. One Plus takes that convenience factor to a completely different level.
I think we need to start letting go of the wireless narrative until the tech starts to catch-up; a 3+ hour charge just aint it!!
Slow charge is the best battery savers. You shouldn't be using your phone while it's charging anyway.
downside is warranty repair dealing with oneplus is a nightmare also if you compare software and Multi window Samsung does it much better also oneplus has no wireless charging also.... nice phone though
Wireless charging(for phones) is complete garbage. For my buds and watch its fine but i dont got 2-3 hrs to be waiting for my battery to fry evenly on both sides lol
Fucking love the open so much!! Was bored of phones but the oneplus open is so much fun!!!
So soon...60 days...😮good phone....few software glitches are there...no phone is 100% perfect

I could care less about IP or Wireless Charging. Mine's coming in the next day or two so it would be time for me to ditch my Xiaomi Mix Fold 2. Anyone wanna buy it?
Impressive phone 😍
Certainly is.
Problem 1) Price
Problem 2) Cameras
Problem 3) you have never used it
Both are ok
@@ttube111 so you thought 7 days to add 5 cents more 😂
@@iustitiaepervenit 10 cents more
amazing foldable yes but the best no fold 5 is still the best but i will say the one plus open is the second best foldable the best 3 things the fold 5 offers is best software, samsung dex , and best s pen support, and features. what the one plus open offers faster charging, better front screen, 2800 nits but for some reason the fold 5 looks brighter
It's got more Ram than my laptop
Did you think it was satisfying though? 😉
A phone review should be about the phone, not some guy's face.
Wtf do u mean😅
Whats funny and hilarious is that Google and Samsung claimed their hinge on the Google pixel fold on the z fold 4 and 5 have the best and strongest hinge but many customers have reported that their foldable phones have broken due to the hinge problems. I thought both Google and Samsung said their hinges were strong enough, but both companies have completely failed
It is a nice phone but the software is not up to par with samsung or Google.
Not true at all.
The OnePlus Open serves all purposes. It's the best foldable phone out there now
this phone is oppo find n3 eu us edition
Yes it is and there's nothing wrong with that.
It's not, One Plus said they came out with the design first, not tookr it from Oppo.
Ахахах хочу на русском 😊
The guy should get his face off of there and just show the phone, that's what I mean.
One plus sucks there warranty support rma reputation listen i get most peope want the bigger screen so they are in a honeymoon phase but man wait until oxygen os bugs horrible support and hardware issues then you will see what you reallu bought and maybe that Narrow screen on the samsung was not so bad me and one plus go back to the only good phone they ever made which was the og one plus one dont buy the hype you will be sorry
The best foldable out imo. Made the switch from samsung and so glad a did. A much better phone .
These out of touch reviewers need to realize not a single real, human being gives a damn about wireless charging. Never have, never will - especially on Android. Magsafe wireless charging was the biggest push wireless charging has ever had and even that is diminutive.
BBK is the parent company not oppo
No. OnePlus is a sub-brand of Oppo now with BBK sitting one step higher.
