OnePlus Open to come with some pre-installed apps, company announces

OnePlus Open software experience

"To provide the best user experience, a small number of applications will come pre-installed on OnePlus Open. We believe this approach strikes the right balance between delivering a novel and seamless user experience while preserving the stability and security of our products," said OnePlus in a statement.

The company apparently worked with mainstream app developers to ensure that widely used applications are compatible with the new folding design. OnePlus says that it aims to offer a hassle-free experience to users. The brand cites Facebook as an example, which is widely used in the company's targeted markets.

"OnePlus prioritises delivering a swift, smooth, and untroubled customer experience above all else. For the introduction of OnePlus Open, we've worked closely with a variety of mainstream app developers to ensure their apps are compatible with our new foldable design, enhancing the user experience," the company added.

OnePlus says that the work required substantial effort from both parties. The results are not only significant but are apparently meaningful for foldable phone owners. We need to wait for the launch of the OenPlus Open to see which apps come pre-installed in India.
