One day before Samsung's Galaxy Unpacked event, OnePlus announced a smartphone of its own to dethrone Samsung. OnePlus USA has teased a folding phone, which will be available on August 11 at 7 p.m. (PST), the same time as the Galaxy Unpacked event.

The gadget seems identical to the Galaxy Fold at first sight. Still, upon closer examination, we can see two displays linked together by a hinge, similar to the Surface Duo. We haven't heard any reports about a foldable OnePlus smartphone, suggesting it might be a concept phone.

The two screens have thin bezels, and the left side includes a volume rocker, while the right side has a power button and an alert slider. We're curious about OnePlus' forthcoming gadget, but it's unlikely to be available for testing anytime soon.

OnePlus has previously shown off many concept phones to demonstrate new technologies, but such technology is seldom ever deployed on real phones. As a result, the OnePlus is unlikely to release a foldable phone anytime soon.

However, it is a strong sign that OnePlus is working on a foldable phone that will be unveiled in the near future.
