OnePlus is expanding its brand into a new industry, the foldable smartphone market. This market is already highly interesting, with major competitors such as Xiaomi, Samsung, and Vivo dominating it. But things are about to get even more fascinating as OnePlus prepares to introduce a competitor to the giants. The upcoming device’s marketing name has already been revealed as “OnePlus OPEN.” The item has now been spotted in a viral video in which a celebrity appears to be using it.

Sufiyan Khan (@RealSufiyanKhan) from YouTube claimed an Indian celebrity Anushka Sharma was seen holding a OnePlus Open smartphone in her hands in a recent X (formerly, Twitter) post. The camera unit of the future smartphone may be seen in the glances.

According to a prior source, the OnePlus Open could have an outward folding design. The foldable is expected to cost less than INR 1,20,000 ($1,444.37).
