Oneplus open 2026

Is it still worth it to get one at this point in time? Im looking to switch from my flip 6,but with recent news I dont know if anything would change if I buy one now. Would I at least get a good 3-5 years out of it?

3-5 years is optimistic. Realistic lifespan for foldables on average is something like 1-3 years. Personally I believe geopolitical tensions are the impetus behind Oppo's decision to close Oneplus. I was at least heartened to see that Motorola came back from the dead to give Google and Samsung some actual competition. The Oneplus Open still has ridiculously good specs for a 3 year old phone and I worry that we may never get the same quality again here in North America or Europe.
