Insider: OnePlus has postponed the unveiling of its foldable Open smartphone
In mid-July, the internet reported that OnePlus was going to unveil its first foldable smartphone, the OnePlus Open, on 29 August. Now an insider has revealed that the release of the novelty has been postponed.
Here's What We Know
According to @MaxJmb, the presentation of the smartphone will take place a little later (most likely in early September). This is due to the fact that OnePlus decided to change the supplier of screens. Initially, the manufacturer was going to install BOE panels in the gadget, but now it will be Samsung screens.
Open Launch got pushed back a bit, but no worries the delay is actually good in a way
