CNET Readers Can Get an Extra $50 Off the OnePlus Open With This Exclusive Deal

Foldable phones are all the rage right now, and OnePlus has joined the fray with its latest release, the OnePlus Open. The brand's first foldable phone will launch Oct. 26, but preorders have already begun. There are plenty of sizable preorder deals available now and CNET readers looking to score this new foldable device can get $50 off the OnePlus Open when you preorder from OnePlus directly and use promo code CNET50 at checkout. This offer is available now through Oct. 31.

Pricing for this new foldable starts at $1,700, but OnePlus is offering $200 off preorders when you trade in any phone, even a broken one, which knocks the price down to $1,500 -- and with this exclusive deal, you'll get an extra $50 off, dropping the price to $1,450. If your device is fairly new, you can sweeten the deal even further. Right now, the company is offering up to $1,000 off with enhanced trade-in credit, with the latest iPhones scoring the largest discounts.    

That's not all. OnePlus is also throwing in a pair of OnePlus Buds Pro 2 as part of its preorder deals, along with six months of 100GB Google One cloud storage and three months of YouTube Premium for new subscribers -- absolutely free.  

This phone comes quipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor that powers its flagship OnePlus 11, which scored a spot on our roundup of the best phones to buy. It also has an impressive 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage, and a 7.8-inch 2K AMOLED internal display with 120Hz refresh rate. The Open comes in emerald dusk (green) or voyager black.

In his full review of the OnePlus Open, CNET's Eli Blumenthal found it had excellent battery life, enhanced by incredibly fast charging. He loved the screen, especially how effortlessly it folded. Its main downsides were in terms of its software not quite meeting the high standards set by Samsung, and its cameras left a little to be desired too, but those could improve over time and may not be your priority.
