OnePlus had previously dismissed the idea of launching a foldable device in 2025, but recent leaks indicate that plans may be in motion. Trusted sources suggest that OnePlus is actively developing a foldable device, with a potential release in 2026 if these reports hold true.
Earlier this year, the company firmly stated its decision to forgo a foldable launch in 2025 and mentioned the need to reevaluate its stance on such devices. However, it appears that OnePlus has not completely abandoned the foldable market.
Renowned leaker Max Jambor recently hinted at a project named “OnePlus Pagani” on X/Twitter, accompanied by an open hands emoji, implying the possibility of a foldable phone. Jambor later clarified that Pagani is not a special edition but a codename for a forthcoming OnePlus product.
The speculation intensified when fellow leaker Abhishek Yadav confirmed that OnePlus Pagani is indeed a foldable phone, though specific details regarding its design remain undisclosed. Many rumors suggest that this device could adopt a flip-style format, potentially setting it up as a competitor to Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip 6.
This aligns with OnePlus’s earlier aspirations to “redefine multiple categories” in the smartphone market. The decision not to launch a successor to the OnePlus Open has puzzled fans and foldable enthusiasts alike.
The Oppo Find N5, known for its exceptional features and sleek design, has left many wondering why OnePlus chose not to introduce it globally. Despite the uncertainty, it seems there is still hope for a OnePlus foldable.
While concrete details about OnePlus Pagani remain elusive, a 2026 release is becoming more likely. Meanwhile, the OnePlus Open, although not the latest, continues to impress with its robust specifications and features, solidifying its position as a strong alternative to competitors like Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold lineup.
