The OnePlus Open was released relatively on October 27, 2023. It was supposed to be the biggest foldable release in the last quarter of 2023. The phone came with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and a 7.8-inch LTPO AMOLED display. This is a really good option for people looking for a foldable phone at $1,500.

The OnePlus Open 2, if it gets announced, will likely try to capture a larger market since tech experts are expecting foldable phones to go mainstream in 2024.

The world's thinnest foldable phone, the HONOR Magic V2, debuted in a few regions in July 2023 and is expected to be made available in more places in early 2024. The Magic V3, which is anticipated to launch in the middle of 2024, is poised to further push the envelope of thinness when folded.

It has an incredibly thin chassis, which measures 4.4 mm when unfolded and 9.9 mm when folded. This offering weighs only 231 g, making it the first book-style foldable smartphone to enter the candybar smartphone market.


3) Vivo X Fold 3

The much-anticipated Vivo X Fold 3 and its more powerful sibling, the Vivo X Fold 3 Pro, are reportedly going to be new additions to this brand's Fold series. Although multiple sources indicate that these devices will launch in Q1 2024, there is still some uncertainty.

It is likely that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 will power both of these devices, as this flagship processor for 2024 is confirmed to be included in a lot of devices coming out next year.


4) Galaxy Flip 6

The Galaxy Z Flip 5's larger cover screen, seamless design, and enhanced camera made it a notable improvement over the Galaxy Z Flip 4. The Galaxy Z Flip 6 is expected to improve upon the Z Flip 5 with standard enhancements like a new processor and maybe additional software features that make use of its foldable design.

The Galaxy Z Flip 6 may have a 50-megapixel primary camera sensor, which would be a significant improvement over the 12-megapixel camera found on the Galaxy Z Flip 5. One can also expect a newer Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 alongside this rumored release as well.
