The folding mechanism of OnePlus Open has undergone extensive testing, demonstrating its ability to be opened and closed up to one million times, which is tantamount to a decade of regular use.

The pricing details have not yet been officially disclosed, but it is anticipated that this information will be revealed during today’s (October 19) event at 7:30pm.

For those who opt to pre-order, a range of benefits are available, including bank offers such as instant bank discounts and no-cost EMI, an exchange offer providing an exchange bonus in addition to the exchange value, and a complimentary case with each purchase of the phone.

The foldable handset is expected to incorporate some form of ingress protection to ensure resistance to water. It is also likely to be offered in two distinct color variations and is anticipated to feature highly optimized third-party applications, including the likes of Facebook.

OnePlus will be live streaming the launch event on its official YouTube channel at 7:30pm today (October 19).
