Compared to Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 5, OnePlus’ first foldable not only includes two larger screens, but it’s also thinner and lighter, as long as you don’t count the huge camera module. The most impressive thing the Open is doing is putting pressure on the price of large foldables.
Starting at $1,700, it’s $100 less than Google’s Z Fold 5 and Pixel Fold, and that’s not taking into account the introductory deal that nets another $200 off with any phone trade-in. We put it to the test in our full review.
And if you’re more interested in Oppo’s new foldable device… well, they’re pretty much the same device.

FCC Restoration of Obama-era Net Neutrality Protections Moves Forward
It will reclassify broadband as an essential communications service.
The Federal Communications Commission voted along party lines to move forward with a plan to largely restore Obama-era net neutrality protections. The agency’s three Democratic commissioners voted in favor and the two Republican commissioners dissented.
