One of my favorite phones of the past year is the OnePlus Open. It was definitely a phone I couldn’t put down and constantly went back to. I consider it the King of the Foldables.

While we eagerly anticipate its successor, OnePlus is bring a new iteration of the OnePlus Open dubbed the Apex Edition. For starters this new model will bring us a new colorway called Crimson Shadow. It seems to be a particularly dark red that hence its name.

Without going into specific details, OnePlus is touting this Apex Edition to also have enhanced storage, AI image editing features, and some innovative security features. It will be interesting to see how these pan out.

We should learn more about this updated OnePlus Open such as pricing and final specs next Wednesday.
