OnePlus Open Campaign Begins with Release of First Look Video

OnePlus is stirring up excitement for its upcoming smartphone release. If we believe the rumors, OnePlus is set to release its first-ever foldable smartphone “OnePlus Open“, later this month. The official campaign to generate buzz around this new device has now begun. This comes after an Indian actress was seen with the Open a few days ago.
A video from Unbox Therapy features OnePlus’s Pete Lau. During the interview, Lau speaks about the device’s hinge design. It’s interesting to note that OnePlus or its parent company Oppo has 35 patents related to this hinge.
The OnePlus Open has a unique feature: it can close with no hinge gap. This was showcased by trapping a sheet of paper inside the phone and then lifting the phone with the sheet. This not only gave viewers a glimpse of the phone’s hardware but also demonstrated its efficiency. There’s a big camera bump on the phone which was mostly hidden under a piece of cardboard in the video.
The Open’s hinge is different from others. It has 31 fewer components than the hinge on the Oppo Find N2. This helps in reducing the size of the phone making it 37% smaller and also lighter. Despite being a new entrant in the foldable phone market, Lau is confident. He believes they are “bringing the best phone to the race”. Users can expect a fast and smooth experience similar to other OnePlus devices. And yes, the phone does come with the alert slider.
The device is a collaboration between the teams at OnePlus and Oppo. Both teams added their unique touch to the phone. Lau hints that there will be different strategies for launching the phone in various markets. This could mean that while it’s called the OnePlus Open in international markets, it might be known as the Oppo Find N3 in China. This aligns with rumors we’ve heard for some time now.
For those hoping for a OnePlus flip phone, there might be some disappointment. Lau believes that flip phones cater to a different audience, not typically the OnePlus buyer. So at least for now, there’s no flip phone in the pipeline for OnePlus.

OnePlus Watch 3 (43mm) Features and Colors Revealed Before Launch on July 8

OnePlus is getting ready to launch a new version of its smartwatch. After releasing the OnePlus Watch 3 in a 46mm size back in February, the company is now introducing a smaller 43mm model. The new watch will officially launch on July 8, but some important details have already been revealed.
The 43mm OnePlus Watch 3 will have a 1.32-inch display, which is smaller than the 1.5-inch screen on the 46mm version. It will also be lighter, weighing just 36.8 grams compared to 49.7 grams for the larger model.
The watch will have a stainless-steel body and will come in two color options: Black Steel and Silver Steel. OnePlus also confirmed that it will include an improved “Mind & Body Evaluation” feature to help users monitor their health more closely.
Another new addition is a real-time barometer. According to OnePlus, this tool can check your body’s fatigue level every 30 minutes, making it useful for health tracking and fitness routines.
More information, including the price and availability of the OnePlus Watch 3 (43mm), will be announced at the official launch event on July 8.

Nothing Phone (3) Leaked Renders Reveal Bold New Design and 50MP Periscope Camera

Nothing is all set to launch its new smartphone, the Nothing Phone (3) on July 1. While some details have already been revealed by the company, new leaked renders give us the clearest look at the device yet.
The images, shared by Android Headlines, show the Phone (3) in two color options – black and white (possibly called gray).


On the front, the phone features a punch-hole display. But the back design is what’s catching everyone’s attention. The phone has a triple rear camera setup, but the alignment is unusual. The top camera is placed closer to the edge of the phone than the one below it, making the design look a bit odd or even controversial.
Although Nothing hasn’t fully revealed the camera specs, it has confirmed that the top camera is a 50MP periscope telephoto lens. Rumors suggest that the other two cameras — likely the primary and ultra-wide — could also have 50MP sensors. The black circle on the right side of the rear panel is part of the brand’s unique Glyph Matrix lighting system.




The renders also show that the Nothing Phone (3) has a metal body. The volume buttons are placed on the left side, and the power button is on the right, along with an extra button, which might be the new Essential Key, first seen on the Nothing Phone (3a) series.
Nothing has also confirmed that the Phone (3) will be powered by the latest Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 processor. The company promises five years of OS updates and seven years of security updates, making it a long-lasting smartphone choice for users.
We’ll know everything for sure on July 1 when the phone officially launches. Let us know what you think about the new design in the comments!

Nothing Gallery 2.0 Update: New Editing Features, UI Changes, and More

Nothing has released a major update to its photo app, called Nothing Gallery 2.0. The update brings many new features and improvements, especially for editing photos and videos. This is a big upgrade from the previous version, which had only basic functions and required users to use Google Photos for editing.

With the new update, users can now edit photos directly within the app. The editing tools include options to crop, rotate, flip, and stretch images. There are also 12 color adjustment tools such as exposure, contrast, saturation, warmth, tint, sharpness, white point, black point, and grain. These tools help users make their pictures look better and more professional.
In addition to photo editing, the app also supports video editing. Users can now crop their videos and adjust the audio volume, all within the Nothing Gallery app. This means users no longer need to use third-party apps for basic video edits.
The update also brings small design changes to the app. For example, text in the app is now written in proper format instead of all capital letters. The date font is now bolder, making it easier to read. Album previews have been changed to look cleaner and more organized. The layout is simpler, and the photo/video count is shown more clearly.
Another nice improvement is the addition of haptic feedback. When you slide through filters or options, the phone gives a small vibration, making the editing experience feel smoother and more responsive.
Overall, the Nothing Gallery 2.0 update is a big step forward. It gives users more control and more tools without needing to rely on Google Photos. Anyone with a Nothing Phone can enjoy these new features by updating the app from the Play Store.
