According to MaxJambor, OnePlus slightly delayed the launch of its Open foldable smartphone. The tipster said that the delay in the launch will be fruitful for consumers, as the company kicked out Chinese panel maker BOE from its supply chain in favor of Samsung.
Samsung has recently released its fifth generation of foldable smartphones. Compared to rivals, the Korean tech giant has a lead in terms of foldable display technology. This appears to have attracted OnePlus, leading removal of BOE from the supply chain.
Open Launch got pushed back a bit, but no worries the delay is actually good in a way
Open was supposed to have a BOE screen but turns out it was 👎🏼 – new panels are from Samsung ✅
Stay tuned for an exciting device!
