It must be a flagship phone that doesn&#8217;t settle because of its folding form, in terms of industrial design, mechanical technology, and other aspects. We want to launch a device that aims to be at the pinnacle experience of today\u2019s foldable market.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>In other words, OnePlus wants its first foldable (which doesn&#8217;t yet have a name, confirmed design, or release date) to be a good phone as well as a foldable phone. <\/p>\n<p>As for what the phone will actually look like or do, it&#8217;s hard to say. OnePlus parent company Oppo has a new foldable called the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oppo.com\/en\/smartphones\/series-find-n\/find-n2-flip\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Find N2 Flip<\/a>, with a clamshell design reminiscent of Samsung&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/mashable.com\/review\/samsung-galaxy-z-flip-4-review\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">Galaxy Z Flip<\/a> series. The OnePlus foldable could condense down in size like a clamshell foldable, or it could expand in size like the tablet-esque <a href=\"https:\/\/mashable.com\/review\/samsung-galaxy-z-fold-4-review\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">Galaxy Z Fold<\/a> series. <\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, we just don&#8217;t know yet what to expect from OnePlus&#8217;s foldable debut.
