OnePlus, the smartphone manufacturer, recently confirmed the launch of its first foldable flagship phone, the OnePlus Open. This foldable phone is set to be unveiled at a global event in Mumbai on October 19. The India pricing and sale date of the OnePlus Open were leaked online ahead of the official launch.
According to Abhishek Yadav, a reliable leaker on X (formerly known as Twitter), the price of the OnePlus Open in India will be approximately Rs 1,39,999. The first sale of this device is scheduled to start on October 27.
The expected price of the OnePlus Open is close to the starting price of Rs 1,54,999 for its rival, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 (12GB/256GB storage model).
