A number of days in the past a rumor out of China claimed the Oppo Discover N5 would launch over there earlier than the top of March. This gadget could be very seemingly going to be bought internationally beneath the title OnePlus Open 2 for the reason that authentic OnePlus Open from final yr was a rebranded Oppo Discover N3 (Oppo is skipping the “4” due to tetraphobia).
On the time we did observe that it was unclear how quickly after the N5’s launch the Open 2 would comply with, and as we speak a tipster over on X sheds some gentle on simply this truth – and it isn’t nice information.

As you possibly can see, the OnePlus Open 2 is claimed to solely be arriving internationally within the second half of 2025, so in July on the earliest. Because it’s rumored to make use of the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, this launch timeline would imply that it’ll solely be available on the market for a number of brief months (and even much less) earlier than the following flagship Snapdragon chip will get introduced, presumably in October.

So, with its possible flagship pricing, the Open 2 would solely have the present flagship chip for a short time, which is, to place it mildly, lower than very best. Then once more, that is simply an unconfirmed rumor, so perhaps issues will end up otherwise. We’ll have to attend and see.
