OnePlus Open, a purported foldable offering from the smartphone company, is set to be unveiled soon. A latest report suggests that the upcoming phone from OnePlus has recently been put through a durability test, where it has showcased impressive performance. Though OnePlus is yet to announce the official launch date or any other details about the handset, reports and rumours regarding the OnePlus Open have already been doing rounds on the internet. The phone's colour options were leaked recently. It is expected to debut in Emerald Eclipse and Voyage Black colour options.

Tipster Max Jambor (@MaxJmb) shared in a post that the purported OnePlus Open has been put through a durability test where it has managed to last over 4,00,000 folds without any damage on the hinge and display. If this is true, then the upcoming OnePlus foldable could beat Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5's 2,00,000 folds' promise. However, this is not official yet and OnePlus is yet to reveal any details on the same.

Meanwhile, OnePlus Open's colour options have been leaked recently. The handset is likely to be available in Emerald Eclipse and Voyage Black colour options.
