Rumors about OPPO’s next foldable, the OPPO Find N5, have been circulating, with sources claiming a launch in China before the end of March 2025. This foldable is expected to make its way to international markets under the name OnePlus Open 2, continuing the trend of rebranding as seen with the OPPO Find N3 and the original OnePlus Open. Notably, OPPO is skipping the “4” in its naming convention due to tetraphobia.
International Launch Delayed for OnePlus Open 2
While the OPPO Find N5 might debut early in the year, the OnePlus Open 2 could see a significant delay. According to a tipster on X, the OnePlus Open 2 is expected to launch internationally only in the second half of 2025, possibly as late as July or later.
The device is rumored to feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, Qualcomm’s current flagship processor. A late 2025 release means the Open 2 will be on the market for only a few months before Qualcomm announces its next-generation flagship chip, likely in October.
Pricing and Performance Concerns
The delayed release could create an awkward situation for OnePlus. The OnePlus Open 2 will likely come with a premium price tag, but its flagship status may feel short-lived due to the impending arrival of newer hardware. For consumers seeking the latest and greatest tech, this timing might make the Open 2 a less attractive option.
Pokdepinion: As with all rumors, it’s essential to take this information with a grain of salt. Plans could change, and timelines might shift. Whether OnePlus adjusts its strategy or sticks to this rumored schedule remains to be seen.
