OnePlus has introduced a new variant of its foldable phone, the OnePlus Open, called the “Apex Edition,” which features a starting price of $1,299. This upgraded model boasts significant improvements over the original, including double the storage capacity, a new “VIP Mode” that disables the microphone and camera via the Alert Slider, and a striking deep red color.
These enhancements build on the already impressive performance of the 2023 OnePlus Open, positioning it as a strong competitor in the foldable phone market despite the emergence of new options from Samsung and Google.
The OnePlus Open “Apex Edition” is priced at $1,899, reflecting a $200 premium over the standard model. This pricing aligns with Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 6, which offers a similar storage capacity. Additionally, a limited edition 1TB version of the Apex Edition is available with an introductory discount, making it more accessible to early adopters.
Customers can purchase the OnePlus Open “Apex Edition” at a reduced price of $1,599 by using the coupon code “1TBFORLIFE” on OnePlus.com. Additionally, OnePlus is offering a trade-in program that provides a minimum of $100 credit for any device, regardless of its condition. This trade-in offer helps further lower the cost for customers looking to upgrade to the new model.
For those not interested in the Apex Edition, the regular OnePlus Open is also available at a discounted rate. Until August 30, the black and green variants with 512GB of storage are priced at $1,399, down from the standard $1,699.
An additional $100 discount is available with any device trade-in, bringing the price down to $1,299. Alongside this offer, OnePlus is providing a free pair of OnePlus Buds Pro 2 or a OnePlus Keyboard 81 Pro with any purchase made before the end of the month.
Amid these promotions, there are rumors that OnePlus may not release a sequel to the Open in 2024. Instead, a new version of the device is expected to launch sometime next year, indicating that the current model and its limited-time offers are a key focus for the company in the immediate future.
